Back to work, MLK day 0121 Or R.E.LEE day for folks too racist to even take a day off to say thanks to a black guy. (Well, Virginia’s state Motto is what John Wilkes Booth shouted in the theater.)
BHK and Bug lifted me into work this morning… I said my goodbyes, as he was back in VA by the time I made it home. We had a nice time – lots of stuff to do, and good goofing off periods.
Pancake and scrambled eggs brunch at Larry & Chris’s, checked out L’s trains upstairs, and rooted around BHK’s old bedroom and returned with salvage of wacky packages, headphones and a weight ball. Not to mention BHK’s 14-wheeled skateboard. I would love to try it if I didn’t fear breaking the rest of my spine.
AM- MRI done… got films, but no record on CD/DVD… I’ll have to scan ‘em before I bring them to the doc.
midday – Snow! big, fat flakes. Almost to stormy to go to my mouth appointment.. but not quite. He almost shut down, but things eased up enough. We were running a little early, so we got a pizza hut pit stop… more games of hangman, tater tots and stuffed crust pizza… no choking this time, but we were regaled about our server’s critter collection at home. 2 dogs, 4 cats, birds, fish,…
Dreamt of the boardwalk coming to life like a Japanese Umbrella Monster. Why? Now I wonder how many 100-year old things are in the house. I’m guessing not much, save for a few books and coins.
BHK made a tasty pseudo-chicken / broccoli / alfredo noodle dish… I scarfed down two full bowls of the stuff… and they were not little bowls. The in-laws invited us to chinese food, but I think that I came out way ahead with what I got.
Beware the ides of January! Oh, how it snowed today! It went for a brief period, stopped, and then came back, all crazy-like.
I heard that it wasn’t going to stick, but it was pretty white out there for a little bit. If it had done its drop after dark, I’d wager there’d have been less sublimation.
Veggie Meatloaf for dinner tonight… nom nom nom.
I’m glad that BHK doesn’t mind my meat-free ways! Larry opted for a fried chicken tv dinner, but Chris was game. I have enough to bring…
First and foremost – a quick random pic of newton for his fans.
I imagine pye was along shortly after to play.
Bhk and I had a yummy supper of tomato soup and pizza-bagels. Just right for a cool night of watching more psych and installing our water cooler.Not much to say today – have an assorted news links edition, dear journal.

We took it easy today, as per our usual Sunday… BHK and I woke and puttered a bit, at at The Frying Pan before heading to Aardvark’s to use the gift certificate we got from the Newsies. We picked up family fluxx, my comics and a few deck boxes for our card games – with the bonus stuff for Zombie and regular fluxx, they’ve rather outgrown the cardboard boxes they came in. I was pleasantly surprised to see a nice display of looney labs stuff there – werewolf and and assortment of…
Tasty crab cakes and sea scallops – salad itself was just ok, but the home made dressing was fantastic. Prices are very reasonable – very rustic / mom & pop atmosphere. Friendly servers – still a…
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…
