I dyed my hair again. It’s been a month since the initial experiment, and all the rinse had washed out of my hair. The grey was back, accusing and surly as ever. I stepped up from a level 1 washes-out-in-a-month to a level 2 washes-out-in-about-two-months deal. The stuff was a tad more complicated to use,…
This Friday is 11/11, also known as National Corduroy day. It’s been declared National Corduroy day because 11/11 looks like the wales in corduroy fabric. No, I’m not kidding. If you don’t believe me, check out The Corduroy Club Web Site’s Grandest Event Announcement. I found out about this a year ago, when the television…
When my alarm clock went off this morning, the Professor had already been up for several hours, grading finals. It’s unusual for him to be awake, alert and well rested when I get up. We talked for a bit, and, as I was getting ready to leave for work he gave me a hug and…
As in, “do, a deer, a female deer”. Interesting. I first typed that as “a femail dear”. I do believe that the synapses are starting to dissolve from all the rain. I took two days off this week and went to a town about an hour from here to see a Loreena McKennitt concert. It’s…

So where’s the picture of the new Ducky?
And to think you can buy 50 blank cds for $10 at Sam’s or just about anyplace you can think of. I guess those guys finally had to admit it didn’t cost $10 for each disc. Big phoneys. Whatcha gonna do with your big settlement? ;o)

Don’t spend that all in one place now! 🙂
Lots of pleasantly tickled little guys adding up to one very chastised big guy. Works for me.
Wow. Maybe the Kid and I will get ours soon, too! That would be nice. Somehow, I have a feeling it will be a couple of measly dollars (if anything) for us Californians though. 🙁

LOL! go little guy!
It’s not much, but the gratification over the settlement out weighs anything else!
Now, don’t spend it all in one place!

Congratulations for your part in sticking it to the man. 🙂
Hooray =)
Buy us all ice cream.
Hey, I signed up for that way back when but I haven’t received anything!
