Congratulations 
Nomi on Today’s wedding!
May you both live happily ever after. 🙂
Speaking of spider webs…
Mike lent me a copy of Uzumaki, on VCD and it had some interesting themes…I think if I can get it back, I’ll burn a copy.
Hmm… interesting to me, especially since my drug of choice these days is caffeine. eek!
No dice on the recorder.. and my nearby comic shop is price-gouging for single figures… The other place was $1 yelow, $2 blue, $3 red… PPF had the same stuff for $2 yellow, $3.50 blue, $5 red.
fark that noise… I’ll just have danny pick some up for me at the cheaper zone.
juliabee put me on to a nifty idea, too… making custom ones! I’ve got more army men than I know what to do with…the click bases don’t look too difficult to replicate.
Another fun thing.. I was in Eckerd’s, and back to school sales are going.. protractors, index cards… all sorts of cool school supplies. They still make trapper keepers! I remember waaaay back in the halcyon days of my youth when they were introduced. Before them…. oh, the humanity… a stack of duo-tang folders, a different color for each class, each course written on the cover neatly in black felt tip. If they didn’t have internal pockets, you were hosed, and possibly doomed to lose information.
I couldn’t resist. I bought a Duo-tang folder. Orange. With internal pockets. It cost me $0.23…I think it’ll be my new Recorder music book… 🙂 Now, I just have to pick up that recorder.
Talked to my sweetie… she’s going to work on her newest hobby for a few, so I’m going to go out and mill around some more. I may buy a new recorder while I’m out…and maybe a little pack of heroclix for a few buddies of mine… hee hee hee… got to spread the addiction.
We bugged out of the trek happening, quick like a bunny. It sucked pretty badly… there were a couple of stinkies there, but none really photo worthy, and the dealer room was poopy.
As a consolation prize, we went to a comic shop, and bought the Marvel Heroclix miniature combat game, then went to Dave & busters to play race car & pod racer, have lunch, and suss out the heroclix rules.
Very easy game, and quite a bit of fun. We got 8 random heroes in the box, and I bought a nice one for both me (Wasp) and Danny (Juggernaut), for about a buck apiece.
The ones that came in the box were Spider-man, Cyclops, Ultron, A skrull warrior, A hydra guy, Sabretooth, Bullseye, and the puppet Master.
I’d like to pick up the hulk, dr strange, captain america, scarlet witch (hee… her and wasp remind me of my sweetie), Jean Grey. and Prof X… I’m looking for the fantastic four, too.
They Need DC ones… I want the Doom Patrol, Batman, Green Lantern, Misc JSA and Batgirl to add to my collection, also!
Okie dokie… morning chores are done, with an hour to spare. That gives me time to put camera batteries in the charger, and play with Newtie!
Cool T-shirt seen today – “If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything.”
Capper image will be 700 wide, and no more than 300 tall.

back form the day o’ doom!
Phew… I had barely a moment to myself today… Kevin and Dale were both out, so I was putting out fires all day long. I got everything done without having to stay late, however, so it’s good for me. It was nuts… like someone kicked over an ants-nest.. everyone runnning around, nattering and stressing. bah! feh! But it’s all over, now.
thirty-six minutes until hidden video… I hope it’s better than last week’s, all the others batted 1000. 🙂
Heading to work late/early.
Hmm… Kevin’s sister went into the hospital last night, and Dale’s on vacation… Looks like I’m in for a lot of work today. Paul just called me up and asked if I could come in any earlier… I told him that my bus leaves in 15 minutes, and I’ll be in by noon… he offered to come pick me up… I don’t really see what difference that 45 minutes will make, but it’s fine by me.
I hope that Kev’s sis is ok…She had some sort of procedure done last week, and they nicked some area near her colon. She’s stable, but it looks like she’s going to have to have a temp colostomy done… lasting for 2-3 months. I’m guessing that it had some sort of maintenance regarding her hysterectomy.
I’m guessing Paul’ll be here in 15 minutes… and then it’ll take 15 minutes to get back. (That is, unless he gets lost… somehow, I think it’d be funny if I got in *late* due to all these folk’s panic.)
It’s not like we send blood and organs out to needy patients… It’s Ramada, for goodness’ sake! Nobody’s going to die if things take place an hour later down the line.
Silly, easily stressed people.

Yay! I thought I was forgotten! I’m uploading squirrel.. just to see if it affects my download credit.
Also, I discovered pics.am, which is another nifty free image archive, but has many pop ups…(if you have a popup killer [the free one is fine] installed, you’re set. ). This kitty cracks me up, somehow.
Step one for the new website. I’m going to make a point of putting a few minutes every day, until it’s all done.
I want to twiddle the colors some, and put a small banner graphic across the top.. something the width of both columns.
I’m going to try for something minimalist, though… my last major revision was “I got a kitten” and changing it to accomodate LJ code.
He does have super-powers, y’know.
RE: Last Mood – Newton is cute, absorbent, but a poor electrical conductor.
Newton can, however, deliver a static charge from his nose to my finger in a colossal blue arc that would make the Mighty Zeus say “Say, nice one!”

added a non-refreshing newtcam pic to my bio page. 🙂
My Brother brought over a package for me that he signed for yesterday… It’s invader zim! 32 episodes of tasty, freaky, Zimmy goodness. Thanks dcl! Coolio Labels, too. I look forward to watching them with much pleasure. I’ll get to learn how my DVD drive deals with VCDS.
Newt’s taken to giving me a pre-dawn wakeup call again. I need to find his settings, and adjust him to “one hour after dawn, or so”. At least I’ve found his snooze button… soft fuzzy underbelly.
Fun fact – French are born with tails, which are later removed.
Word of the day – fumbuckery. (I dig spoonerisms.) It describes the functionality of midday meetings.
I want to make homemade ice cream by rolling a bucket back and forth to my sweetie. Strawberry, maybe.
Chuck E. Cheese can cause nostalgia, and nightmares. I tend to side with Mr. Munch.
If you think your pregnancy test should be private, wait until you read this. The new Florida adoption law says that if you don’t know the father of your baby and you want to let someone adopt the baby, you have to list all the possible fathers of your child in the newspaper.
When background searches fail to locate the birth father, the mother must place legal notices about the adoption in a local newspaper where the child was conceived.
In the notice, the mother must list her name, describe herself, name or describe the possible father or fathers and list the date and the city or county of conception.
