9024 – friday
Baby Polar bear homepage! When does he get his armor, and star in a crappy movie? (I set google to auto-translate from german) He was born on Just about 4 weeks ago.
Aww.. I love him. Maybe BHK will let me have one, if we get a duck and a llama.
Variant route to work this morning – left a little late, got off at fort trotten, and took r2 in… got to work by 8:15, well before my preferred deadline of 8:30.
Came home, had subway subs and watched The Ex, and the finaled of Spidey 3. Spidey wasn’t as bad as I’d heard, the third time around.. the Ex was pretty formula, and didn’t do a lot for me, but it was nice getting together with family and hanging out.
Friday 5 via eryx_uk –
1. Where do you like to walk?
Anywhere! I like people-watching, architecture and nature-watching.. I prefer a reasonably hazard-free surface in a comfy climate. The woods, cityscape and boardwalk are all great.
2. What does your hair look like?
Currently cut short, brown, with bits of red, gray, black and blonde tossed in for good measure. Thinning some on top, more gray being tossed in daily – plentiful enough on arms, legs and etc.
3. What are you jealous of?
I’m not a very jealous person these days.
4. What kind of promises do you make?
The kind I plan on keeping… I rarely promise anything.
5. What makes you stare?
When my mind drifts, I tend to lock onto a location in space and stare at it… I’m prone to gaze deeply at anything that would attract a magpie or a monkey. Shiny stuff, moving trees in the wind, an unusual color amongst the grays.

Louis the octopus clearly thinks two heads are better than one when it comes to toys.
The 1.8m-wide (6ft) creature is so attached to Mr Potato Head that he turns aggressive when aquarium staff try to remove it from his tank.

The giant Pacific octopus was given the toy for Christmas and has even learned to dig out food hidden in a secret box at the back…

Happy Birthday, Kat78731 (and 2 years of journaling)!
If I could, I’d get you these Victorian “Gaslight Justice League” action figures – I think that Hawkgirl and The Flash are pretty dang keen, though my fave is the simplicity of the Martian Manhunter.
BHK had to call a plumber. Shower was backing up / drain issues, turned out to be tree roots in the line, not the conspiracy theories of flushing feminine products, popsicle sticks, or live pelicans brought forth by the…

Chris played hooky today, so I got a later ride in to work with BHK… an extra span of sleep does a world of good.
Work – solid. lots of testing, meetings planned.
After work, BHK picked me up, and we went to go see the 7pm showing of Juno at Annapolis.
There was no 7pm showing at Annapolis, despite what yahoo movies says.
So, we got tickets for the 8:20 show, did a little clothes shopping for BHK (got a new top and hat), then went to dinner at red robin (I got teriyaki pinapple veggie…

Got home tonight, and found out our water isn’t draining properly. Larry came by and tried plunging, but to no avail. Tomorrow, he’s bringing the snake by to take care of business.
I like that phrase… like an enforcer, “Tomorrow, the snake will take care of business”.
Hm.. or something pornographic, maybe.
Not much today – Worked, a very long meeting midday. Got some solid brainstorming done, and possibly a good lead for some side help from BR.
Got home, and BHK made me veggie…

Thursday’s Bar & Grill (4/5)

Wandered around the hiking trail shop – looked at kayaks and bikes. Met a friendly salesman, very knowledgeable, and a know-it-all one-upsman. Steve will be who we buy from, should we come back, not the KIA.
I’m looking forward to warmer weather and heading out on the water.
Saw Juno – It was quite good, despite the overwritten “super-hip/ironic” dialogue in the first part of the movie. Nice range of characters… some I liked, some I didn’t.
Cool little easter eggs in I am Legend. Sadly, I’m boycotting it now, (plus BHK doesn’t want to see it either)… Will Smith’s a Scientologist?
Will Smith has joined the ranks of Hollywood power players actively recruiting for the Church of Scientology. Big stars traditionally distribute “wrap presents” to crew members after completing a film. His recent gift after wrapping next summer’s comedy “Hancock” was a card good for a personality test at your local Scientology center.
Thanks, but no thanks, Fresh Prince.

9120 – Monday
Called in sick to work – made a trip to the dentist to deal with that cracked tooth.
Before my root canal, we stopped for stuffed crust pie at pizza hut – bhk and I didn’t figure I’d be in the mood to eat after having my choppers done… fate was not on my side.
Unfortunately, I ordered a quepapa appetizer – one of those little tater tot things got caught in my throat, and seared the back of my esophagus. Our server tried to administer the Heimlich maneuver by grabbing me around my neck……
