I love the Finnish site! I look just like my Grandmother who was Finnish. Blondish hair, dark lashes and hazel eyes, Long straight nose (BIG long straight nose), full lips. Me=Finn.
Natter 53: We could just avoid making tortured puns
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.
Dude! Is it seriously the weekend again, already? I'm losing time again. Have any of you seen me getting abducted by aliens recently?
This weekend: do work that's been neglected this past week due to band drama and more. Meet with the builder. Watch football.
Today: finally starting up at the youth center. Turns out they've got half-day Fridays all year, so the youth center will open up after that, and then us. Which is bonus, 'cause we'll get off early and won't have to drive up the hill in the dark on alcohol night. Then probably some housework and general tidying up.
Paid lessons on Saturday morning, recording session Saturday afternoon. Ooh, and then the SO bought us season tickets to the tiny local symphony! The trombonist in our band is also in the symphony, so we're going to support him. We'd probably have gone anyway. So symphony concert Saturday evening, yay!
Sunday is probably church if I can get motivated. We're still visiting around, and we had the concert last weekend, so we've missed for a few weeks. Then rehearsal in the evening. We have a bunch of car songs to learn for the car show this month.
And then the following week will be a) the first of possible normal weeks for the year, with all our stuff scheduled in at last and b) the start of the build.
While preparing for her own wedding, a dear friend stumbled upon examples of strange, odd, and unflattering wedding accessories. She kept the strangest of the lot, and I am presenting them here, along with her comments.
OMG, is this the worst but-bow in the history of the universe? [link] It looks like two pillows.
Tonight is watch Doctor Who, then sleep. Tomorrow is work at the bookstore, intend to wash dishes, but sleep instead. Sunday is Fooootbaaaalllll!!! And maybe some cleaning.
Oddly enough, maximum fatality seems to occur from falls in the 7 story range.
I wonder how they know this, given that only the (temporarily) living victims are brought to the animal hospital. If the cat is no more, has ceased to be, has expired and gone to meet 'is maker, it doesn't go to the hospital. So it doesn't end up in the data.
Hee--the Onion has two cat-related pictures/captions, including one with a cat in uniform!
What are people doing this weekend?
Maybe ride down to Half Moon Bay. Definitely wash my motorcycle. Hopefully spend time with M. Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeep.
I'm sorry the phone doesn't seem to be ringing, Tom, but please to not be wallowing.
This weekend, I need to clean like a mad woman (HOUSEGUESTS YAY), plus make a run to TJs and the grocery store and the flag store and Target and the electronics recycling place.
You didn't, um... cheat, did you?
Look, if you had direct access to a room full of physicists, Sean Carroll, Jennifer Ouellette, and some nobel laureates, you'd be stoked to finally have the opportunity to cheat on physics quizzes.
What are people doing this weekend?
Having lunch with a couple up from New York on Sunday, then finding someplace to watch the Pats game. Tomorrow I think I'll do sweet FA, except maybe try to finally get to HPatOotP and/or Ratatouille.
Tonight? Currently trying to figure out what I'll do for dinner, then home for Doctor Who and playing catchup with my DVR/DVDs.
