Well, the weekend was a mixed bag, but it mostly qualified as a success. The big news is that I finally got my scanner working again. The damned thing is, I don’t know how I did it. I was finally able to locate the unzipped files (the ones that I complained I couldn’t find in…
The Socialist took yesterday off from work so he could take care of arranging to get his car fixed. I was rather impressed with his insurance company – less than twelve hours after he got hit his car was in for estimates. The Socialist, of course, spent most of the day admiring his half-empty glass…
Those of you not on a high-speed connection have my apologies in advance for this entry. I couldn’t force myself to reduce these pictures as much as they required. For some reason my camera was able to compensate for my complete lack of artistic ability on this trip, and I managed to get some wonderfully…
Gads, I can’t remember the last time I saw Mary Poppins. I do remember the first time – I was eight years old and my whole family went to the drive-in movie. I remember in particular Dick van Dyke’s penguin dance and the bird woman scene. ABC Family is playing it now, and while I…
I am more convinced than ever that animals have sensibilities that humans fail to appreciate. Those of you who have followed my Diary at all have been regaled by stories about my Kitten-From-Hell, the destructive force that I have been unable to stop or even slow down. Mirrors, wall hangings, floor fans, exposed ankles and…
February, when the days of winter seem endless and no amount of wistful recollecting can bring back any air of summer. – – – Shirley Jackson “Raising Demons” We did get yet more snow last night, but it only amounted to about two very fluffy inches. It was still a pain to have to clean…
3.5 hours long? Hmm, we will definitely need an aisle seat as I am positive none of the kids have a 3.5 hour bladder capacity.

That’s one long movie! Glad it was worth it.
There’s a new poll on music at the open forum. Votes needed!
Oh man, I’m SO going to dress as an orc. That’s so stupid!! 😀
Someone came dressed like an ORC?! Ohhh, that’s bad, that’s VERY bad….
Hi, by the way. I read your diary all the time but I don’t know if I’ve ever left you a comment saying hello 🙂 So, hello!

What is an orc?
lol @ StrangeBrew. I don’t know what an orc is either.
The Encyclopedia would go with you Pali.
I’ll go!!! Is there a Concorde flight between Seattle and you? That’s the only way I’d get there in time!
OK, maybe not.
Keep asking, I’m sure you’ll find someone. If not, do you have a Boys & Girls club near you? Maybe you could donate the rest of the tickets so some kids who otherwise wouldn’t be able to go can see it. Or take it to a local radio station for them to give away.

Wow! I’d ask what an Arda is, but I’m afraid you’d reach through the screen and slap me silly. lol!
Wish I could go with you.
Go =)
I’d go with you but it is approximately a 10 hour drive I think. If I can make a plane reservation, I’ll let ya know *giggles*
Followed the link and sped thru text,
what does the little bugger look like?
I saw a large fire breathing lizard perched on a red orb, could that be he?
You have free tickets and I cant go with you just because I moved 1500 miles away?!?
*SOB*
four free tickets!!!! i’d have gone with you
oh, what a pain when people back out of things
i saw rotk last night and loved it. for some reason, though, i think my favourite of the 3 is still number 2. not quite sure why
perhaps it has something to do with the fact that now lotr is officially ended, and that is kind of a sad thing 🙁
