Today started off okay, but now it's crappy.  That is all.

You need to get a copy of Jim's Journals. :-)

It's gotten a tad better.  I still think I may indulge in a beer tonight when I get home.

Off to stimulate the economy, you mean?

At this point, I don't think my $50 purchase plus songs means shit to the economy. But sure, let's call it that.  :-)

I got the blue 1GB shuffle. Already playing with it. It will be great when I go running.

So excited!  :hyper:

This weather sucks. Got to walk halfway across campus in a thunderstorm when the wind shredded my umbrella. Now there's talk of a tornado to the south of us in Lewisville. Frakkin sweet.

So much for snow flurries tonight, with no accumulation.

It's been coming down like it's going out of style since about 15:30 - 16:00 this afternoon, and I have at least 1 1/2 inches on the ground.  Unless we have a 60 degree day coming tomorrow, this stuff is sticking around (and being added upon with the storm due in thursday/friday.)

Well, isn't this just great? My macaw Pepper just laid her third egg.   :lmao: 

I guess I SHOULD start seeing about finding a male green-wing to breed her with (without actually buying the male), and share the profits from the babies with the male's owner. :p  (Although that would be hard, given I'd be so tempted to keep all the babies to myself.  :uhsure:  :innocent: )

My mom's husband wanted to breed their two Chinese Cresteds. 

She said NO.  :lmao:

Thank GOD! (No offense, but that is an ugly breed.  :o  I think all the dogs that have won the World's Ugliest Dog contest have been from that breed).

Missing my critters, and kind of sad realizing that it'll STILL be another 19 days until I get home again.  While the weather was warm, I didn't get to see much of it.  I showed up to work at my usual hour of 6 am, and promptly went into the plant to do another day of mind-numbing limit switch checks.  Followed that up by dressing out in anti-C's (anti-contamination suit) only to be pulled at the last minute from doing a job inside the drywell, where I would have gotten about 100 mr in an hour or so.

No per diem check yet either.  So I'm broke, sitting in a hotel room in Iowa, waiting for it to freeze again tomorrow, and to top it all off I found out a co-worker who retired last year and took to the road with is in critical condition in a Mississippi hospital because his wagon was hit from behind by a semi.

So while I'm tired and a bit depressed, Bob is most definitely in my thoughts and prayers tonight.

Looks like 50's "down here" where I work, with off and on rain. Up at the house, I think we are on the edge of the snow line, so slush all over.
