All right! That's good news.
I'm looking forward to doing something fun tomorrow. I have a lot of homework to do but I shouldn't have time fitting that in. Try to think if there's anything you want to do before leaving!
I've not noticed it in our back yard, but I remember seeing an entire field of them do it in Wisconsin!
I really can't believe everything is still alive. They're growing real slow, but they're very much alive! I cover them with the floating row cover stuff over night and went out to find it covered in frost. Once the sun hits the garden, no matter the outside temperature, I uncover them and allow the sun to warm the soil. Then, at dusk, I go out and cover it all back up again.
Nothing has died. I have small spinach, lettuce, collards, carrots, and turnips...very small, but alive!
The garlic looks like it's in heaven, though, and is 6-8" tall already!
I saw Flash Gordon in the cinema! No kidding, it was back in 1980 and it's all very vague (it was vague the day after I saw it.) Queen did the soundtrack and I still remember *that* part of it, even though I've never seen it since!
Flash - Ah - Saviour of the universe
Flash - Ah - He'll save ev'ry one of us
Heh heh heh...oh my.
I just wish I had more to say goodbye to. Is that twisted of me or what?
I do want to wander Old Town a bit. And depending on the amount of time we had and whether the snow is gone at all, maybe we could drive somewhere closeby to look at pretty scenery.
Ungh...I need to go to the library to print, but I don't know that I can easily squeeze it in today. Shoulda done it yesterday, I guess. Unless I go after the bed lady and before the snowshoe lady...
That's...somewhat frightening.
What'd'ya need to print? If it's not that much and you don't care about me seeing it, email it to me in the next half hour and I'll Misuse Resources for you.
Eh...it's likely to be a lot of pages. Map stuff. Still haven't printed those.
So? If it's not gonna be thirty pages of stuff, send it. I need to steal your quarters for laundry anyway, I don't want you to spend them on printing ;-)
Well...some of it would involve logging into my Expedia account. I'm gonna use the directions Rose gave me, plus print out a few extra things.
If you're willing to print 'em - great! I'll FReepmail you the info...
Can't you get a cuppa and a roll for the road on your way out of town?
No problem. Tell me what you want and I'll do it.
Nah, they aren't open before eleven on Sundays, unfortunately. *snif*
Maybe I'll get one at Mugs, though. That's where I used to go hang out when I was writing.
Well, I'm about to run Tweek back up to the vets. Her seroma is twice as big as it was yesterday and though it doesn't seem to bother her, it's bothering me, with it being friday and heading into the weekend and all. I want to be sure this thing is as is should be before the weekend.
You should have e-mail, if'n I had your address right!
Yeah - we saw it... it was cute, but we were disappointed that the fans all seemed goofy and immature compared to the "real" cross-section of fans... US! ~right?~
Oh no...that doesn't sound good!
Hope it's no big deal!
Okeydoke... hope she's OK!
I should at least be able to do some hiking! Lookin' forward to that. And the bike, such as it is, is coming. Unless it blows off the roof halfway through Idaho. ;-)
And if I find there are lots of places around to snowshoe...well, I can probably find some used ones myself.
