Gosh, I hope you like it after going to that much trouble!

I thought it was pretty funny. Although it was kinda "jerky" on my computer...

Evening all. I hate being gone all day. I missed another triple precious.

Hair - weird thing about the crow. If Tippi Hedren shows up at your place...run...

Busy day today at a bored meeting. Then came home and took the wife out for her birthday. (It's actually tomorrow, but my mom is here so she watched the little one).

We went to an Italian restaraunt we haven't tried before. We really liked it, but I overdid it. I had more calories tonite than I've had in the last three weeks - and that's without dessert. We went by Barnes & Noble on the way home to pick up some books my wife needs for school and to get coffee. I was so full I just got a regular coffee and not my usual latte. In addition to the calories, the food was very rich. Let's just say that after three weeks of a fairly bland diet...lets just leave it there.

It was a pretty busy day... I am worn out! Did you have the seafood fettucini with the creme sauce? - I love that!

How is everyone tonight? - Did you get it downloaded Bear?

Ecurbh! - Glad to hear from you ... good to know you are lurking, even if you are not posting. Penny is the one who is MIA now. Chat this weekend would be good! Name the time!

This place bills themselves as an Italian Grill. I had the grilled salmon, my wife had a sirloin. Both were great. But we had plenty of fresh baked bread dipped in olive oil, and a Caesar salad and a nice glass of chianti...

You do know Hannibal was filmed in Richmond, don't you?

Corin, we went to the mall and I got a nice cup of Gloria Jean's house blend.

I bought Matthew a couple of easy-reader Star Wars AOTC books and a couple of shorts outfits, one that has a picture of teenager Anakin's face cut in half and the other side is Darth Vader's mask. The other one has a picture of a storm trooper clone with a gazillion more behind him. Matthew was thrilled!

The best thing I did was get him some Star Wars underwear! They came in a package that had a cardboard insert with a picture of teenager Anakin. I took it and cut it out and made him a bookmarker out of it!

Matthew is convinced I'm the smartest mom on Earth.

I got Joshua some new outfits, kackey (sp?) shorts with haiwaiin (sp?) type shirts. He picked them out and I'm impressed with his taste! I also got him a tee-shirt with Bob the Builder on it and some Bob the Builder underwear! LOL He also got a new Bob the Builder book.

Then we went to eat at Popeye's Chicken. Anyone heard of it? Mmmmm! Cajun! I had red beans and rice and a biscuit. They are coming out with fried crawfish in the fall...I can not wait.

Did you get it downloaded Bear?

Workin' on it... 36% done, 1:20:00 to go. Opera is not only downloading it more quickly than Netscape was, it will let me resume from where it stopped if I lose my connection! I just may have to switch browsers permanently...

Thanks for the underwear updates! ;-)

We have Popeye's here, but we prefer our local grocery store when we're buying chicken.

But I love red beans and rice...mmmmmmmm...

I suppose it would be pointless to recommend Internet Explorer!

Okay folkses, it's been fun, but I'm heading to bed. I'm exhausted. Is there a nite lite?

Hullo! You've been a good mom today. I'm exhausted. I figured today I'm working more hours a week than I'm sleeping. At least I think so, my brain starts getting fuzzy around Thursday. Sometimes that's a good thing, like when I can look at a graph of a straight line and realize it must be a logarythm - the graph paper being distorted in just the right ways - but it looks like a curve to my poor little brain....

Lousy night. It was rainy and dark and I am tired, and my last delivery, they didn't tip me and the dog bit me! On the leg; but it was an old spaniel with no teeth so it didn't hurt. Oh, and I'm thinking I dislike being female, but don't want to be a man, either. Can they stop those sex-change surgeries halfway, you know?

I think I'd better go to bed and see how I feel in the morning. Maybe my head won't be pounding then. See you later!

If they can, then you could get a third job in a circus...
