Oh, I'm all about "a friend of mine"--and in these days of facebook, it even makes perfect sense that a friend of mine said something on the internet! Much more so than it used to in the past. ;) Though often people are all "Oh, a friend from college?" (or DC, or whatever) and I'm like "Er...no...just...um..." (especially if I'm mentioning one of you with kids or something)
Pix I'm sorry there are things in your walls. That is super creepy.
I have also never thought of taking pictures of a funeral. AT a funeral, possibly--I mean, my father's family being midwestern Irish Catholic, there was usually some sort of post-funeral potluck shindig at the church, so there? Sure! Pictures! Look, family is together! But NSM of the actual funeral stuff.
ION, something is scurrying around in my walls. Mia has been prairie dogging and staring at the noises, so I know it's not just me.
Yup, I've got something too. It's underneath my bedroom closet. Probably raccoons. I know I should call my landlady, but I don't want to deal with an exterminator right now. I know raccoons and squirrels are pests, but I still don't want a fledgling family destroyed. (it doesn't sound like rats - too heavy.)
I guess I'm the only one awake.
I got an e-mail from ThinkGeek. It was advertising this:

I wonder if it would work with this:

Nah, I'm still awake although I shouldn't be.
The ThinkGeek site claims it works with *any* telescope but I'd check with them to be sure. Man, that Galileoscope links makes me wistful. We made a version of those in my high school Astronomy class. I kept mine. Somewhere along the line, my mom threw it out. *sad face*
eek, Pix. Here's hoping it finds its way out.
I am overly suggestible. I see a plate of cookies on tv and immediately require input of cookies. less than an hour after a large bowl of pasta with homemade pesto (i think i used too much garlic again) and oodles of fresh tomatoes from a friend's garden. it was nommy and very filling and did not require subsequent cookies.
Teppy, I'm sorry I didn't chime in earlier, but I've been thinking about you and your family and wishing I know something better to say than that.
Steph, I'm glad the funeral went well. My thoughts are with you and Tim.
My brain has decided to PLAN EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD right now . all my usual tricks aren't working. Bah. I have stuff to do tomorrow - but the odds of my brain being useful keep dropping
That was me! I am going into work early so I can leave early and I hope go to bed early.
