I can only say that Ted Kennedy's car has killed more people than my guns while I've owned them).

You owned Ted Kennedy's car?

And there's nothing metrosexual about lighthouses. Durn inlanders...

Good morning! Happy weekend!

Today is a day of quick errands (on which we're about to embark), household chores (booo hissss), gift wrapping, and candy making.

I'd be a lot better off if I did, perhaps...

I could carry it around in a semi-trailer tricked out as a Kennedy museum. $5.00 admission or so.

I could advertise it in interesting ways, year by year.

"See the infamous Kennedy murder weapon!"-- and they show up expecting a Mannlicher-Carcano...

...there's nothing metrosexual about lighthouses..."Metrosexual" IIRC includes "straight", just "a little too frou-frou".

I was given to understand by a -- very aggressive -- female of prior acquaintance that her extensive interest in lighthouses was structural in origin. The presence of lighthouses reminds me of her...

...and that's not necessarily a bad thing...

Good morning!

My to-do list...

Glue a small piece of trim back on the front of the stove

Move the big giant speakers that aren't connected (and won't be) from either side of the sofa to either side of the "entertainment center"; place the front speakers that are connected on top of them.

Move the bright lamp to the dark corner of the room; move the dimmer, more decorative lamp to the table at the other end of the sofa.

Lunch.

And then...I don't know what. Go to the museum, maybe...they have the traveling Shackleton show thru a couple days after New Years, and supposedly they've refurbished some of the permanent exhibits since I was last there (among other items, an 80-year-old wolf diorama...imagine seeing that as a child and then taking the gt. grandkids to see it later...and a pair of elephant tusks, one visibly containing the bullet that didn't kill the elephant...and the mummy of some Egyptian bureaucrat's wife).

Good morning!

Getting off to a late start here. My day isn't entirely my own, either - I have to drop my littlest sis off at a birthday party at two (Dad works Saturdays), and I can't leave her for another hour and a half for various reasons so there's a limit to what I can do between times. *sigh*

Good morning!

I have some stuff to do today but so far I can only remember the 'get caffeine' part.

I don't plan to stick around during the party...but you're right - I should carry a notebook as I'm wandering today! Down to the wire, I am...

Morning All; long walk for Gypsygirl today, beautiful sunny crisp day. She has developed quite an interest in birds, loves to stop and watch them fly into and out of bushes. Big doings tonight, the annual Company 'Winter Holiday Party' sigh. "black tie optional" hmmm. don't have a black tie, so that is a ~ good ~ thing it is optional. Off to the hardware store for PVC pipe glue. Got a mailing tube to prepare. :-)

Corin - how did the show go?

OT - take care with the 'forestry' work today, hard hat, check, safety glasses, check, leather gloves, check, saw, check. Work safely.

Righty!

Got the garage sort of cleaned out....cleaned out enough to get a washer and dryer through.

Guess I'll go saw a couple of cuts before the ballgame starts.

Hehehe...I must have looked pitiful. The guy across the street brought his chainsaw over and cut up the big stuff for me.
