Weekly Memes Catch-Up

// October 21st, 2003 // No Comments » // tagged: Random

:mondaymission:Monday Mission 3.41 1. Have you ever accidentally deleted something from your website or otherwise screwed it up? Share your tales of woe, won't you? I've accidentally deleted templates before -- which can be annoying if you can't find a recent backup. I don't think I've ever deleted whole directories or blogs (ahem) before though, thank goodness! 2. When was the last time you did a total backup of your website (including databases) to store offline? Do you have some sort of schedule set up? Thursday of last week -- I backed up all my websites, and their respective databases. I try and do a backup like that once a week. I export all my MT entries once a month (probably should do that more often!) (The rest of this MM, another MM, and a Friday Five are in the Extended Entry Below!) 3. If your entire site was deleted, and there was no way to restore it, what would you do? Would you start over? Give up? How would it impact your life? I doubt there would be no way to restore it, since I do regular backups -- but in the unlikely event that all my backups were also deleted - I'd probably just start over. It would stink to lose all my archives, but life goes on. 4. Just what do you hope to accomplish with your blog? Why are you doing it? To make the world a better place, to satisfy your own vanity or what? Is the time you spend blogging really "time well spent?" It's kind of like archiving my life -- and I don't do it as much for other people as for myself. It's interesting to me to see what I was blogging about a year ago -- what was important to me then? Has it changed? What was stressing me? Am I still stressing about it? Etc. I consider it time well spent -- I'm not an obsessive 10 times a day blogger, so I don't feel I waste too much time blogging. 5. Do you think having your own web site/blog has changed you as a person? It's made me think about things in my life after they've occured -- whereas sometimes things happen and you don't think about them. You read books or watch movies and you don't think about them ever again. Here I put down my thoughts about life, books, movies, etc -- and I can look back on those thoughts. Perhaps it has made me a bit more introspective. 6. Do you let Google index your site? Do you often search certain topics on Google to see your rankings? What are some of the good and bad things about being listed in Google? I don't really think about it much -- not for my personal site. My blog is just my ramblings and its cool to me that people read it -- but its not the reason behind it. 7. What do you think of the "Blog Buddy System" idea? Do you have a "Blog Buddy" in your life? Would you like one? Have you ever thought about what would happen to your site if you died and who would tell your readers? I guess I'm already buddies with several people online anyway that will shoot me an email or IM if I've not blogged in a while. :mondaymission:Monday Mission 3.42 1. What is the most expensive car repair you'd have to pay for? $750 +/- transmisson work 2. I did some traveling this weekend. Not too far, just about two hours in the car. What is the longest time you've ever spent riding/driving in a car? 28 hours .... drove from Cleveland, Tennessee to Bangor, Maine. Will never, ever, do that again. 3. Fall seems to be a pretty busy time of year: football, school starting, Halloween, thanksgiving, traveling, family functions. Are the next few weeks going to be busy for you? What do you have going on? I have a Masquerade Party Friday night, a Block Party Event Sunday, family is coming up the following weekend, a sorority alumni reunion in November, and then the busyness really starts with Thanksgiving and Christmas festivities. My life is cram-packed til mid-January! Whew! But I LOVE Christmas-time .... so I can't wait til I can pull out the decorations!! 4. Changing seasons usually also means changing clothing. Do you have a routine to switch clothing around in your closet or dressers? Do you look forward to the chance to wear some different clothes for a change? This is the first year we'll have enough closets to actually be able to move around our clothes -- so I'll probably move our summer clothes upstairs to one of the guest bedroom closets. That will give us more room for the bulkier fall/winter clothes. And I LOVE fall clothes. I love sweaters, jackets, sweatshirts, boots, turtlenecks, etc. 5. Have you ever been to pick apples or visit a farm in the fall? Is that something you (would) enjoy? My grandparents have apple trees on their farm ... and I dated a dairy-farmer for 3 years. I've had a lot of farm experience ... and I can honestly say I am glad I married a computer geek and not a farmer. It's not the life for me! 6. Are there any tastes or smells that once you've taken them in, you just know fall is really here? I think the air smells different in fall, when the leaves are starting to change and drop. When I taste hot apple cider I think of fall. Or a nice cup of hot chocolate. Mmmm 7. Isn't there something you've been meaning to do for a while? You know, that thing? Yeah. So, what's the holdup? There is so much to do ... but every day life seems to get in the way a lot. That's why lists are an important thing in my life. If I have a list of things to do -- I WILL eventually get around to crossing it off. It might be a few months from now ... but it will happen. Without lists, life would be chaos for me! :fridayfive: 1. Name five things in your refrigerator. Milk, Pepperjack Cheese, Diet Coke, Cottage Cheese, Apples 2. Name five things in your freezer. Corn, Hamburger Patties, Chicken Breasts, Fudge-Pops, Brussel Sprouts 3. Name five things under your kitchen sink. Cascade, Clorox, Pledge, Lysol, Sponges 4. Name five things around your computer. Blank CD-Rs, hard drive, cat-5 cable, glass of diet coke, fax machine 5. Name five things in your medicine cabinet. Aleve, Advil, Ortho-Evra, Band-Aids, Neosporin

What's Your Pirate Name? I'm Bloody Mary Flint: Every pirate lives for something different. For some, it's the open sea. For others (the masochists), it's the food. For you, it's definitely the fighting. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr! :mondaymission: 1. What was the first perfume or cologne you wore? Tell me about the memories that come to mind when you think about it/smell it again. I think my first real perfume was Eternityby Calvin Klein -- my dad bought me one of those boxes with 3 tiny little bottles of perfume -- I felt so grown up when I would dab a little on my wrists and neck. 2. What are some of the best things about Fall? Sweaters and boots, seeing the leaves change, roasting marshmallows over a bonfire, sipping a hot chocolate while you're wrapped up in a blanket on the couch ... I love fall ! 3. Why do some women put up with men who constantly insult them and/or abuse them? Because the women have low self esteem and haven't realized yet that they deserve more, and that they deserve respect ... until they can come to that realization, it's a hopeless situation. You have to think you're worth something before you can realize how crappy it is that someone else thinks you're worthless .... 4. What are some things men should never say to women? You're wearing that ?!? Do you really need another [insert item of clothing, shoes, makeup, etc here]? (Of course we don't NEED it ... but we WANT it .... ;) ) 5. How many pairs of shoes do you have? Is that too many or not enough? Do you keep shoes you know you will never wear again? Lots. :sarcastic: I don't know how many exactly -- but Steve had to build me another shelf in the closet to hold them all. I keep lots of shoes -- but every year I sell the ones I KNOW I won't wear anymore at our annual yardsale. But then of course I use that money to go and buy more shoes. It's a vicious cycle :tongue: 6. Did your family keep a lot of photo albums around? Do you like looking at family photo albums? Yes -- but I love stuff like that. My parents have albums from when they were dating, to when my brother and I were born -- all the way up to today. It's nice to be able to look back! I also have lots of photo albums -- and I've made a few scrapbooks for special events -- but I'm not into the whole scrapbooking frenzy though. 7. I've finally got a Friday night off to go out to a movie. You're coming with, right? Great! I am leaving it all up to you though, you make the plans, who's going, where to eat, the movie, whatever else later. I'll be by a 7 to get you, so what's the plan? Who's going -- well our significant others of course, we'll go to Kobe (a japanese steakhouse where they cook all the food right in front of you and it is scrumptious!!), we'll go see Matchstick Men, and then maybe head to a Starbucks or something for a coffee and a piece of coffee cake or something. :cool: Found this new weekly meme from Gina ....

Monday Mission ala Promo

// September 9th, 2003 // No Comments » // tagged: Random

Monday Mission .... one day late. 1. How to you get motivated to do something you really hate to do? I tell myself the sooner I do it the sooner I'll be done with it. 2. Have you ever been hypnotized? Do you think it can really be done or is it a mind trick? I went to one of those comedy club shows with The Hypnotist a few years back. My tablemates volunteered me to go up there. I don't know if I was hypnotized necessarily ... but I was seriously relaxed and kinda felt asleep. My friends SAID I did a few things, but I remember most of them -- I don't clearly remember licking envelopes or pretending to ride in a car, but its there - but nothing out of character (like make out with a stranger or take off any clothes) -- so I think even if you are hypnotized, you aren't going to do things that are totally against your nature. Is it strange to think I've been hypnotized but not really sure? I don't know. I think hypnotism is possible ... but you have to be willing to allow yourself to go there. Who knows. 3. Bride Magazine says that the average bill for a wedding is $22,000. No, I didn't misplace a comma, that is twenty-two THOUSAND! That sounds insane to me. I'd rather elope and put that money into a house. Or a honeymoon. If you are married, how much did your wedding cost? Was it worth it? (the cost of the wedding, not the marriage, heh) If you aren't, how much do you think should be spent on a wedding? Let's see .... I think we came out OK on our wedding. The service was held at the church I grew up in, so no fees there. The reception was held in the churchs huge fellowship hall complete with crystal, tables, and linen tableclothes -- so no cost for that. My first purchase was my dress -- which was a little over $850 (i still have it too ... I've been trying to detach myself from it enough to sell it and recoup a few hundred ... but can't quite give it up yet! Maybe another year will do it for me! I've never been the type to want my daughter to wear my wedding dress. I didn't want to wear my mom's, and I wouldn't want to pressure my daughter into wearing mine. Every bride should be able to do their own thing, in my oh so humble opinion). Veil, shoes, crinolin, hair, jewelry etc .... probably another $400 or so. Invitations -- for some reason I'm thinking that was around $250. I think that might be low though?? Flowers .... I can't remember. I think it was around $1000 for flowers. Again, our wedding was at Christmas in my home church. We used their gorgeous candelabras and pew glass globes and cut our own christmas greenery and used three huge christmas trees as decoration for the ceremony -- so our flower bill wouldn't be as high as for someone getting married in summer where the church wouldn't already be gorgeous for Christmas. Rehearsal Dinner was around $1500 or so -- i can't remember exactly. Brides Cake and Grooms cake were $450 together I think. We got a deal on those thank goodness. The Reception is the big cost for a wedding -- again I'm estimating, but I think it was around $4500. So thats about $8200 not including tuxes, bridesmaid dresses, gifts for the wedding party, honeymoon, reception favors .... so maybe a little over $10,000 for the entire thing? I'm probably underestimating -- but it was nowhere near $22,000. And Steve and I paid for A LOT of things ourselves so my parents thankfully didn't have to foot the entire bill. We bought a lot of things along the way and it wasn't so bad as paying for everything within a month or two. It's I had a huge notebook as my wedding planner and had magazine cutouts and websites and everything I could find on invitiations, cakes, dresses, etc. all about planning and researching and finding the best deal. Blah BLah Blah I'm going on and on about this. Ugh. And yes ... it was worth it. I worked hard leading up to the wedding-- and Steve, my mom and I pretty much decorated the church all by ourselves. And it looked magical -- I had always wanted a Christmas wedding and I had a beautiful one. Looking back, the only thing I would have spent less on is the dress -- I could have bought the same dress at another store for a few hundred less, but didn't know it til after I'd already bought it. It was one of those -- OH MY GOSH this is the perfect dress and i Have to order it right now -- decisions. If I had waited like 3 days, I would have seen the dress at the other store. Oh well ! 4. Have you ever looked for or bought a house? Was it fun? What is the most frustrating part of the process (looking, buying, all areas)? We just bought our first house about 5 months ago. It was a long long process. All in all, we were looking for about 9 months. We bid on at least 5 houses, lost the first four in bidding wars, and finally got the 5th one and we love it. The most frustrating part -- trying to find all the things you want in a house, in the area you want, in the price range you can afford. It's tough ... because you don't want to settle for anything less! 5. Do you have a quiet place where you can go and be alone? What's it like? Would you share it with someone or is it just yours? Not really .... I love reading in our den in my favorite chair with my feet up. A nice cosy blanket wrapped around me. But its not like it's a secret hiding place though! 6. Summer is almost over, did you get to take a vacation yet? We went to England in April for Steve's friends wedding -- short trip though. We had 2 days in St. Augustine, Florida earlier in the summer. Other than that -- really haven't gone anywhere. We're going to Boston in October for another friends wedding (another great bridesmaid dress --- yipppeee!) and hoping to spend a few days in Gatlinburg after Thanksgiving. I guess we're more short trip kind of people -- because getting a whole week off work is hectic and almost more trouble than its worth. Taking one or two days here and there is nice though. THen you have mini-vacations all throughout the year! 7. Do you like playing video games? What game system do you like the most (any era) or do you prefer board games? Nope. Growing up my dad wouldn't let us play video games, period. So I never got into them, and don't really want to get into them. I have enough stuff I like to do!! I love board games though .... especially the classics -- Monopoly, Trivial Pursuit, Clue, Scrabble, etc.

I’ll have a new password for $1000, Alex.

:fridayfive: 1. When was the last time you laughed? ah about 2 seconds ago 2. Who was the last person you had an argument with? a guy at work who didn't think changing your password every 2-3 months was important to network security :banghead: 3. Who was the last person you emailed? my brother, about the house they are buying 4. When was the last time you bathed? this morning, great shower! 5. What was the last thing you ate? a pack of peanut butter crackers and a diet coke What a week. I've been slammed all week long with work. In addition to my normal website work (big project due on deadline next week , and I'm still missing 4 articles from different contributors :crazy:), I've had two new machines to add to the network here - which should have been a piece of cake, except someone ordered them with XP home instead of XP Pro, so I had to redo the entire disk with XP and then reinstall all the drivers and blah blah blah. We're also busy trying to keep everything up to date what with all the viruses and worms out there being on the rise recently. Do these hackers not have anything better to do? Couldn't they be working on something more productive? Like code to help the fight for cancer or something? :yell: I don't know -- anything better than working so hard on something just to cause chaos? What is the point? Oh well. Watched Gangs of New York last night. Not sure what all the fuss was about. THat was a 1 1/2 hour movie stretched into a 3 hour movie. It was an ok movie -- but I'm glad I didn't waste my money and see it on the big screen. Thank goodness for netflix!

it’s always too early to wake up

// August 5th, 2003 // 1 Comment » // tagged: House > Random

We're putting shelves in an alcove in our kitchen. Not quite sure what the previous homeowners did with that space -- it's about 3 feet wide, 7 feet tall and 1.5 feet deep. To us, it was wasted space because we don't have any furniture that would fit that space. So we're putting shelves in there (I can display vases, some of my teapots and miscellaneous kitchen stuff) -- you can never have too many built in bookshelves in a house. We already have 4. We have lots of books. LOTS. :book: This will make five built-ins (and then we have my two favorite free-standing ones they're square, with 9 square spaces for books -- they're in our bedroom and one of the guest bedrooms upstairs ... I have my not-as-intellectual novels in those bookcases :uhh: - aka romance rip the bodice books ;) ). So tonight we're cutting some molding ... and now after only installing one shelf (4 more to go) I can say how important it is to measure at least twice, and cut once. Otherwise you end up sanding off that extra 1/8 of an inch because it's almost impossible to do another cut without making it too short. :headache: So after finally getting the molding and everything correct for the first shelf, we're calling it quits for this evening. Tomorrow night is going to be better. We've got one under our belt -- and tomorrow night we'll be whipping those shelves up there like there's no tomorrow. :fridayfive: Only a few days late! 1. What time do you wake up on weekday mornings? 6:15 AM 2. Do you sleep in on the weekends? How late? Yes! Usually wake up around 8:45 or 9:00 AM 3. Aside from waking up, what is the first thing you do in the morning? Shower 4. How long does it take to get ready for your day? 20-30 minutes. 5. When possible, what is your favorite place to go for breakfast? Pancake Pantry

Surfin’ Summer Potpourri

// July 10th, 2003 // No Comments » // tagged: Random

:thisorthat: Everybody's Gone Surfin'! 1. Surf sites at random, or have a set list of regular reads? Every few weeks I'll look around and try to find new sites. 2. Do you visit mostly blogs, or news or other sites? Blogs, News, Shopping, pretty much everything. 3. Do you go online every day, or just a couple of days a week? 4. Do you allow comments on your blog, or not? yep 5. Do you shop online at all, or at regular stores? 6. Have you ever done online bill-paying/banking, or not? Yes. We pay all our bills and our mortgage online. It's so simple and you have so much information at your fingertips. I haven't written a check in I don't know how long. 7. Which news site do you prefer... MSNBC.com or CNN.com? Or do you prefer some other one? I always check Yahoo News for their Oddly Enough section -- they've always got something weird there! 8. Live chat rooms, or message boards? Don't have much time for chat rooms these days! 9. Instant messaging or e-mail? Both. Depends on who I'm trying to communicate with! Summer Fun! 1. Lemonade or Ice Cold Beer? 2. Swimming pool or beach? 3. Long weekends here & there, or a 2-week vacation? 4. Destination: Acapulco or Hawaii? 5. Destination: Mountains or Beach? 6. Hotel/motel/B&B or camping? 7. Carefully planned vacation, or play it by ear? Although that depends on your destination. When we go to Europe, we usually have a well planned itinerary so that we can get as much in as possible. 8. Sneakers or sandals? 9. Air-conditioning or fans? 10. Concerts in the park or baseball games? 10. Yes or no: have you ever met, or at least talked on the phone with, another blogger? If not, would you want to? Why or why not? Haven't met another blogger .... but I did originally meet my husband online .... and I wouldn't meet him in person for more than 3 years-- once I finally did, we dated for a year (live and in living color ... lol) before we got engaged .... ;) Summer Potpourri 1. Strawberries or blueberries? duh ..... 2. "Legally Blonde 2" or "Terminator 3"? 3. Hamburgers or hot dogs? 4. Boating or hiking? 5. Suntan lotion or sunblock? <Beach Boys or Jimmy Buffett? 8. Grow your own produce or buy from supermarket/greengrocer/farm stand? Although we do have a tomato plant in our garden. My grandparents gave it to us and it was only a few inches tall. Now it's almost six feet tall!! We think its a mutant tomato plant. 9. Drive with car windows/top down, or with air-conditioning on? 10. Go away for vacation, or stay at home? But sometimes you can't beat a weekend at home ....

Reading Rainbow

// June 29th, 2003 // No Comments » // tagged: Random

:sevenonsunday: 1. Do you consider yourself an avid reader? Why? Why not? Definitely. I love to read and almost always have something I'm currently reading. It's a great relaxing thing for me ... a de-stresser! 2. What was the last book you finished? In one word, what did you think of it? Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix. Outstanding. 3. Do you prefer to read the book before it's movie comes out or after? Read the book before. Definitely. 4. Has the movie ever been better than the book? None that I've ever seen. With a book the story is only limited by your imagination. 5. Hardcover or paperback? Library or book store? Paperback for the most part ... book store! 6. Recommend three books to your visitors. Outlander by Diana Gabaldon (& the rest of the series as well), the entire In Death series by J.D. Robb, and Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen 7. What are you currently reading? Just finished Harry Potter, and I'm going to start reading one of Robin Cook's books that I managed to miss a few years ago!

Redheads have more fun!

// June 21st, 2003 // 7 Comments » // tagged: Random

Friday Five 1. Is your hair naturally curly, wavy, or straight? Long or short? If I let my hair dry naturally, it kinks up into corkscrew curls ... and thats cool sometimes ... but almost every day I dry it and use a curling iron to straighten it a bit. 2. How has your hair changed over your lifetime? My hair used to be more of an orange-red ... a lot lighter than it is now. Now its a deep richer red ... which I like better. It's also gotten thicker as I've gotten older! 3. How do your normally wear your hair? Down, parted on whichever side my hair decides it wants to part on that day. Right now I've got it cut at shoulder length -- no bangs (haven't had bangs since 5th grade!) 4. If you could change your hair this minute, what would it look like? For just one day, I'd love to be a blond ... although redheads probably DO have more fun ;) 5. Ever had a hair disaster? What happened? Got it cut too short once ... I cried for a day ... it was about 3 inches shorter than what I wanted it to be, and I hated it.

This or That Extravaganza

// June 18th, 2003 // 1 Comment » // tagged: Random

This-or-That:Reading 1. Newspapers or magazines? 2. Books-on-tape or regular books? 3. Paperback or hardcover? Either. I love books no matter how they come. 4. Fiction or non-fiction? I like bioweapon and biohazard non-fiction books ... but other than that, I stick to fiction. 5. Sci-Fi/Fantasy or romance novels? 6. Borrow from library or buy books (either new or used)? 7. Subscribe to magazines or buy on newsstand? 8. Current best-sellers or classic literature? Both. But probably more best-sellers. 9. Read books once, or re-read favorites every so often? 10. Here in the U.S., we have two hot best-sellers...former First Lady Hillary Clinton's memoirs, and the new Harry Potter book (coming out June 21). If you had to read one, which one...Hillary or Harry? Why? Because they are well-written fascinating books with characters who get you involved in the story. Whereas Hillary's book is just a purging of her past as a preparation for putting herself out there as a presidential nominee. I sincerely doubt that much of that book is anything other than a carefully thought out way to distance herself from the scandals of the Clinton presidency. This-or-That:TV/Movies 1. "The Munsters" or "The Addams Family"? 2. "The Sopranos" or the "Godfather" movies? 3. "The Jetsons" or "Lost in Space"? 4. "Superman" or "Batman" (either the TV shows or the movies)? 5. "Sex & The City" or "Friends"? 6. "The Wizard of Oz" or the "Harry Potter" movies? 7. "The Simpsons" or "King of the Hill"? Neither. 8. "Grease" or "Saturday Night Fever"? 9. Old prime-time soaps: "Dallas" or "Dynasty"? Who Shot JR? The Dream Season. Ah the memories. 10. Not very thought-provoking this week...do you prefer TV shows or movies? I like both, equally. This-or-That:Animals 1. Cats or dogs? 2. Butterflies or birds? 3. Horses or cows? 4. Turtles or snakes? 5. Frogs or grasshoppers? 6. Lions or tigers? 7. Elephants or mice? 8. Porcupines or aardvarks? 9. Unicorns or dragons? 10. Thought-provoking question of the week: You live in a rather dumpy apartment. A friend offers you a chance to be a roommate at a new place s/he is moving into, but they don't allow pets. You have a pet. Do you find your pet a new home and take the new place, or do you keep your pet and stay put? I think I'd keep the pet and find a new place. There are plenty of places out there who will let you have pets!

First MT Entry!!!

// June 9th, 2003 // 4 Comments » // tagged: Random > Traveling

I'm going to try and install Moveable Type on my server sometime this week -- I don't know that I want to use it on this site, but Steve thinks he might use it to log in articles and results for his soccer website. If I have any problems, I'll be running to Miss Moveable Type 2003, Addie. She doesn't even know it yet ;) I spent this past weekend in Knoxville being in a friends wedding. She and her husband graduated from medical school just one week before their wedding -- so needless to say, it was a bit hectic because they had SO much going on right up until the wedding day. It all turned out beautifully though -- we, the bridesmaids, had pretty two-piece black dresses that *SHOCK* we MIGHT actually be able to wear again. (Maybe I should post pictures of the bridesmaid dresses I have in my closet .... only two of them are even remotely possibilities for a second wearing, and only if the skirt is altered. Guys get off so easy .... sure they have to rent a tux, but at least they haven't spent $100+ on a dress that, if it wasn't for their friend, they wouldn't be caught dead in. Seriously -- who wants a bow or a row of roses on their butt in satin???) SEVEN on SUNDAY: 1. What was the last movie you saw and what did you think of it? The Patriot (the one with Steven Seagal that was on TBS). Lamest biowarfare movie I've ever seen in my life? I mean, come on, curing the virus with flowers? The end of the movie was a bunch of helicopters dropping flowers over the town. I don't know why I expected more ... it WAS a Steven Seagal movie. LOL 2. What summer releases are you looking forward to? Non-movie, of course it would be the latest Harry Potter novel; Movie-related..... Legally Blond 2, American Wedding 3. Are there any movies that you just do not get the hype over? 2Fast2Furious. Or the first one. I guess I'm just not into the lame car-chasing macho guy crap. 4. Name a great movie that you don't think has gotten enough hype. Angela's Ashes - definitely not a feel good movie, but awesome; Billy Elliot - hilarious, probably more so if you have a british person around to translate!!! 5. What movie genre do you usually enjoy most? Wow I like almost all -- I love drama, action, suspense, mystery, romance. I don't enjoy thriller movies though. At all. 6. Are there any movies that you know are really stupid, but you loved anyway? American Pies I/II... they are stupid movies, but hilarious none the less. 7. What's the next movie you plan on seeing? Bruce Almighty Happy belated birthday to Rae .... the queen of the blog. May you have many more years of being the leader of online blabbering. (Rae probably doesn't even know this ... but it was her website that made me want to have a blog!) This week is going to be a good one. I have no plans whatsoever. It's the first week in a long time that I've just had normal life going on -- so it will be nice! Last night Steve and I stained the deck of the house and I framed a few prints (links to one photomosaic print that we have) that we had in storage. Steve wants to add on a whole new section of deck this summer -- so maybe we'll get started on that this weekend. (It's so nice just to have a free weekend to start on it if we want to.) Maybe we'll even be able to go OUT to a movie theatre. Woohoo! Only 11 more days til Harry Potter !!! Today's top news stories ....
-- This is the freakiest thing I've seen in a while ... -- This is the coolest picture I've seen in a while .... -- Unbelievable! -- Whoa Nelly! -- If only we had known .... Ha. -- Addie and her donkey would be right at home here .... -- Mr. Stinky .... -- Hot mama
