Oh, more cute: J's been taking him into the lab on occasion. This weekend, they did "experiments" together, namely that phenal-something that changes from clear to yellow or purple depending on acidity or baseness. He also did some other change/bubble/stink type chemistry, and D LOVED it! He now has his own collection of test tubes (!!!!) and a petri dish that he insisted on gluing a plastic bug in. He's calling it his 'spurmint and it is going everywhere with him.

Natter 47: My Brilliance Is Wasted On You People
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Chemists are so cute when they're little!
I keep tax stuff forever, and throw everything else away, because I'm so disorganized that if I kept it, it would become a pile of undifferentiated paper in which I could find nothing important anyway.
Hi. I was away. Life is strange. I'm back now.
I just had the freakiest lunch of my life. I was eating at the juice bar of this crunchy-granola co-op deli, and the developmentally disabled woman next to me kept patting and rubbing my shoulder and waving her hand around in front of my face and over my food as she got more and more animated in conversation with the person at the next stool over. Note to self: not a good place to eat for touch-avoidant people.
do people keep bills for credit cards, electricity, phone, etc. once paid?
Yes. Five years, and then they get shredded. I have no idea where I pulled 5 years from (possibly my hindquarters), but it's in my brain and my filing cabinet can accomodate that without difficulty.

Awwwww! A world of bless.
a petri dish that he insisted on gluing a plastic bug in
Hee!

This is my problem. I hate filing at work, I hate filing at home.
I just made lunch (linner), and I think I must be 9 years old. I'm eating mac and cheese with hotdogs in, and drinking orange soda. I mean, seriously.
Happy Birthday, Jessica!
Grey and rainy day here. I napped on the couch for a lovely hour or so just now. There's laundry to do and a kitchen to clean, but... not yet. I'm sure I have a show or two to catch up on first.
Thanks for the birthday happies, guys! I think I must be a rain god, because the clouds seems to be wishing me happy birthday too.
For my birthday, I saw a morning screening of Happy Feet (NOT the carefree romp the trailers and posters would have you believe!) and then went to an open-house. The apartment turned out to be AMAZING, and DH and I both really want it. So now we have to start seriously talking to bank people about money. We have no idea what we're doing. Wish us luck!
Happy Birthday, Jessica!
So I'm watching Cruel Intentions (in memory of Reese-n-Ryan!), and it's funny how everyone in it is recognizable. I forgot that the shrink's daughter is Tara Reid, and the guy in bed with Pacey is the boss on Ugly Betty. Funny.That movie is one of my guilty pleasures. In no small part because Ryan Phillipe is one of my guilty pleasures.
Happy Birthday, Jessica!
In other news, I need to stop watching What You Get for the Money on HGTV. It's kinda depressing.
Happy Birthday, Jess! You're thinking of buying an apartment? In what neighborhood?
