Just a quiet day at home with The Boy - we’ll probably be shooting a stop-motion animation clip this weekend; guaranteed six hours of work.

Yes, and I'm soooooooo opposed to exercise in any form.

actually, I have been walking a bit more to save gas ... I may actually have a first digit of my weight be a "1" again soon without switching to the Metric system.

Your plovers are always good company and always welcome here. It's been a bit dry so I see less of them inshore lately but they're along the shore when I get home.

Where'd the plovers get the little McCain/Palin buttons? It's quite the rage.

Inside track before they left. I’m gonna head for home and hope that everybody else is already off the roads and at their own homes. Hearing about accidents everywhere, which is normal for the first day of snow. Unfortunately, temps supposed to be in the high 30s low 40s for a week or so. We will have to do this again.
