9633 – Saturday

We did not leave the house at all today – BHK and I took care of chores, and just enjoyed each other’s company all day long.

Watched a lot of TV, and surfed a lot of net, too.

On the tube –

mr meaty – just gets more awesome every episode I see – I think we’ll buy the DVD of this should it become available.

Baby Yeti? Borg Robot replacement? Superpowers? Vampires? Girls doing shopping montages? Ninjas done right? Yes to all.

lucky number slevin – better than I thought it would be – a solid 7/10

burn notice – Chugging along nicely… hasn’t jumped the shark yet for me.

monk – magician episode – I wanted to like it, but it was far too easily solved and the magic castle needs blackstone. Without it.. it’s just blah.

dined on leftover spaghetti and cream sauce veggies/meatballs

9630 – Wednesday

I really like the Prince George’s Plaza Metro station, even if it is in a fairly rough neck of the woods.

0224091804.jpg

The whole place is just a neat design… lots of concrete, textures and angles hidden everywhere. I have half a mind to design a Counterstrike level for it. (Like I have that kind of time – Too many other things occupying my life to spend 30 hours building a level that will never get any play.

A pity it wasn’t one of the locations used in Fallout 3.

After work today, it was off to get our overdue weekly luxury of soda pop and two $1 scratch off tickets – results were the standard "we didn’t win anything, let’s drown our sorrows in a diet cherry dr pepper"

So.. What did I give up for lent? Just a bit of sloth, I think. I’m going to shoot for more vigorous walkies and getting back on my regular exercise regimen.

BHK made some tasty noodles w/ peas, broccoli and "meatballs" in a cream sauce. Good hearty stuff – Enough to take some with me to work tomorrow for lunch!

9627 – Monday

Workitty work work. Workitty work. Workitty workitty workitty work. Sounds a bit like a train on the track, clackitty clack.

Solid Day today – So much so that I snoozed a bit on the train ride home. I got a little extra time, as they were single-tracking on the green line heading toward Suitland station. I guess one was down for repairs.

Things I listened to today as I worked: Jean Shepherd (the guy that did a christmas story) , Phil Harris (Bandleader for Ol’ Jack Benny) I like that Archive.org has a built-in streaming player – I can listen on my laptop in the background while I do my thing. I should listen to Jack too, while I’m at it, but I really Like Ol’ Phil and Alice’s wedding dynamic.

Found out that a coworker of Sean’s got canned for having a wireless device (an ipod touch, I think) – The price you pay for working with certain levels of security clearances. I’ve been some places that forbid cell phones and flash drives, too – just to protect proprietary info. (In my case, it was the courthouse.) Not sure what Sean’s going to do about his entertainment, now… I guess a walkman will have to do the trick, rather than an ipod? Seems sort of stone-age given the technology corridor here.

BHK and I swung by Jerry’s for supper tonight – I got onion and green pepper pizza, she got the chicken "cheese steak" sammich. While we waited for it to cook, we swung by Giant to pick up some goodies for next supper – green beans, peas, broccoli for the noodle dish she’s got in mind… not to mention the chocolate covered bunny grahams (Easter goodies out already?? What about St. Patty’s??) and Old Bay Cheese-crackers, shaped like little crabs. Nom nom Nom.


Smoking dulls the effects of caffeine. As in, you need 3-4 times as much caffeine as a non-smoker to get the same effect. It also has the same effect on some antipsychotics – meaning smokers need a much bigger dose, and if you quit smoking while on them you’ll be overdosing. And if you start smoking while on them, you’ll be underdosing.

BHK awesomely found dress shoes I like at amazon for $22.(No simple task – I’m a size 15 EEE) (Got another pair for $54, which is the standard "good deal" for me – they’re usually about $75+)

Came home, worked and ate more pseudo-chili for dinner… gooooood stuff.

HAPPY 9TH BIRTHDAY, Li’L BIT!

It freaks me out a little that I’ve been keeping a journal here since before she was a year old.

Fat flakes of Snow today! Turned to rain later on, but at least I got a little touch of white all over the landscape for an hour or so.

Hooray for Having the Day off! Thanks, Presidents!

Slept in for a bit, but not too long. Up at about 9am and then we frittered around until about 1 – played more indiana jones lego, and hung out. We decided to hit the 4pm showing of Coraline in 3-D – but before we left, Larry swung by – he needed me to reset the password on an old laptop he had. Found a great utility to do that – boot from CD, run a little line of code, and presto- reset. I’m keeping the CD in my library in case I’ll need it again – I have little doubt that it’s a one-shot item, given the number of computer users in my life.

Anyhow, we went to Annapolis to catch Coroline [corrected form Caraline!]- it was a great movie, very immersive, and the story was nicely spooky, but kid-ish. I wouldn’t have trouble taking my neice and nephew to go see it – they’re 11 and 6. BHK and I noshed on a big tub of corn and diet-soda, so we weren’t too hungry for dinner after the flick. We headed home, waved to the ATW man (skiing at the moment) and got comfy on the couch.

A couple of last-minute chores to do – folding laundry and such, and we watched the season finale of Dr. Who… not bad. I liked seeing the army of companions / spinoff folks all working together.

Dinner was tasty remainder of the matzo ball Soup and pair of quorn patties with munster cheese for dinner. After the Who, we caught up with an episode or two of Ugly Betty.

It’s a "school night", so off to bed early for me! until later, dear journal.

9616 – Friday

8:01 AM – Discovered the hard way that the commuter bus doesn’t take checks – thankfully the fast stop up the road has an ATM so I can pay in cash, and yoo hoo to sooth my nerves. The driver was kind enough to give me a free ride today so I am still 10 rides on the ol’ ticket. Not bad for $38.25 (normally $4.25 a lift)

 
Getting cooler outside again – perhaps snow tomorrow? Many sunbeam “talkers” came from between the clouds after sunrise.
 
I wonder how hard it is to get an international driver’s license. I am so close to dc, that I suspect that it may be an option. I will look into that.
 
Starlings and sparrows are all out and about at the bus stop this morning – spring must be in the heart, if not in the air just yet.
 
Friday the 13th! As mentioned previously, the train smelled of fresh cupcakes, which is a nice way to start the day.
 
Long weekend ahead – some of the chiefs at work started it today. – I have said it before – it is amazing how much more work can be done when the side distractions have left for the day. 
 
update – 1:21 PM – Polished off the tvp with some baked beans for lunch  – tasty stuff, and it looks like my gi tract isn’t going to rebel too much – it seems like some of my gut issues have abated a bit- I think that taking my medicine at night makes it a bit easier in the morning. 

Today is Chris’s Birthday, so BHK and I will likely go shopping for our Valentine’s Day picnic tomorrow. I planned a little adventure for us to go out, walk holding hands, and have a nice romantic time together on the long weekend.

Chris mentioned something about all of us going to Selby Bay for her birthday dinner – Works for me! I suspect that I won’t have time to update more tonight, so until later, dear journal!

9597 – Wednesday

Had to get up extra early this morning, to be sure I could make it in to work on time. Snow has melted to form extra-scary and slick ice on the roads and sidewalks outside.

The replacement Clie I got back in march died – bidding for a new one on ebay. I’ll have to make a point to recover my old data – shouldn’t be a problem, since I last backed it up a day or two ago. The only hassle will be re-installing my 3rd party stuff. Astronomer, isilo reader, and tealpaint are really the only items I’ll want back right away. If those bids don’t go through, I may look into a Nokia N810 or possibly a Asus EEE for the same cost as a Birthday Prezzie to myself.

Not a great day today, but tomorrow will be better. Off to a rough start, and a really rough time at work about 4pm. BHK collected more estimates on the Love Cube’s repair, and remains doubtful that insurance will pay the bill. Chris is looking into options on her side of things.

BHK made calzones – her first attempt, and they were delicious. (Mine had broccoli, veggie meatballs, and assorted cheeses in there). Technically, I guess they were stromboli, as she put a little sauce inside the dough, but not a huge amount. I still had some on the side to dip into.

We watched the first half of the Heartbreak Kid, and now we’re calling it a night.

Until later, dear journal.

A wave of low pressure will continue to bring snow and sleet to the area today. A brief lull in the precipitation is expected this afternoon… before a second  stronger low pressure wave will bring a wintry mix of precipitation tonight and Wednesday. Precipitation will be mainly in the form of snow and sleet this evening… but a change over to freezing rain and rain is expected overnight as warmer air is drawn into the system. Temperatures will remain in the lower 30s Wednesday  allowing for the rain to freeze on some surfaces.

Total snow and sleet accumulations through Tuesday night will be 2 to 4 inches and total ice accumulations for Tuesday night through Wednesday morning will be one to two tenths of an inch.

Didn’t get together with Todd today – the weather was too bad to drive to meet him. We made it home ok – all of the soft poweder of the morning had a layer of slick ice over the top of it. I’m glad that we managed to see him yesterday! It sounds like he had a good time checking out the monuments – I’m sure that they were extra nifty-looking with the layers of snow everywhere.

Had Pigs in Blankets for dinner, with string beans on the side. pretty nummy!

Hectic day at work today – lots done, lots to do.

After work, BHK picked me up, and we stopped by Dream Wizards – unfortunatly closed, so we settled for MOM’s got a few little sundries – beans, bread, veggie-chips

We went to the Vegetable Garden with Todd – he’s in town for a couple of days, and we’re happy to take advantage of having him local! It was nice visiting with him, and hopefully we can catch him again tomorrow before he high-tails it back to South Florida.

Quote of the night – "Should I take the shoe or the duck? … Well, the Shoe comes with maple syrup!" Todd got the Duck, anyhow. I suspect the shoe was tastier.

Note –

GEN. WILMINGTON’S SHOE Ingredients: Veggie sable (made of soy protein), red onion & white mushrooms wrapped & baked in puff pastry sheets.  Garnished with steamed snow peas & carrots.  Served with organic maple syrup.

BHK made some tasty soup! pot pie squares (noodles), broccolii, cabbage, peas, carrots, celery veggie "beef" stock. really good.
