Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

It is a matching chair. I have pics I can send someone as well as measurements.

Huh. Our Lexis rep brought us nada. Our Westlaw rep brought us cookies, at least, so we were not sugar deprived this week.

Saturday: Pick up the house, get outside because it's going to be 75 and sunny, get home in time to welcome my parents for a 1 night visit.

Sunday: Breakfast with parents, walk in the park with parents and dog, wave goodbye to parents, groceries & other necessary chores.

okay, cool, msbelle. I'll make a note and we'll take it from there if someone buys it and is interested.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Weekend:

Tonight: Baseball practice.

Saturday: Double header. Against a very good team. We played shitty in our last loss, so I'd be very happy to win at least one game of the double-header.

Sunday: Not play baseball.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'll be getting my car's oil changed. Sadly, that's not a euphemism for anything. I might sneak a pedicure in there somewhere. This is the first weekend that hasn't been crazy busy in quite a while, so I'm hoping to enjoy the whole lack of stress thing.

That reminds me that I need to change the oil in my wife's car. I don't think the weather will cooperate. I keep trying to talk my daughter into getting under the car to help me out, but I haven't been able to do it yet.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Tonight, TiVo backlog. Saturday: cleaning house and laundry and going to buy seeds during the day, then to friend's for a board game birthday gathering. Sunday, gardening during the day and to dinner and the movies with other friends.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Happy Birthday Sheryl!

quick question: when one has hired pros for a business move do the movers get tipped?

I've tipped for unexpected difficulties and an unplanned side trip to drop off a sofa that wouldn't fit, but in general I'd say you're paying professionals directly for the service they're providing—no tip required. I don't tip my mechanic or doctor.

“Not dead yet!”

Looks like this weekend is a lot of reading. And I'm going to do a review (heh, my first like, since grad school) of a book, the Smart Bitches Beyond Heaving Bosoms: The Smart Bitches' Guide to Romance Novels.

Lord, but it's funny as hell.
