We got a Wii! Paul's portion of the stimulus package was spent quickly & happily :) He picked up Smash Brothers Brawl and I got Super Mario Paper! We've set it all up and tried bowling & tennis already. So! If you've got a Wii, send me your user ...

As an update to this post, we got our check! I didn't even notice it because I forgot I had them deposit our refunds (and ergo our stimulus package) into our savings which I hardly ever pay attention to - so I had to log into our account. But it's...

I bought Linnet some new stuff - before we went on the trip - and they came this week! She's wearing a new outfit (a black two piece top & black capri), bracelet/arm band, necklace & eyes. I know, I know - you guys are thinking this is the 3rd...

...65% in taxes?! I know that if he'd taken it in payments rather than a lump sum he would have retained more - but that just doesn't seem fair. On a side note, while we were in Scotland we watched one of their lottery shows. I was impressed b...

2008-05-08T14:36:07Z

How many pair of shoes do you have? Out of those pairs, how many do you wear more than a few times a year? Submitted by fightinggale. I'm not a big shoe person, but this QotD reminds me that I really need to clean out my closet. There is a lot ...

Hairy like a beast!

27 pages into The Host and I can't get the idea of Cylon versa Human out of my head :) I'm so tired. I went to bed at 11pm last night in the hopes that I would sleep until my alarm and get back into the groove of things. Well, I slept until my al...

I went to bed at 8:30pm last night, and that was me trying to keep my eyes open. Luckily, when I woke up at 4:30am this morning, I felt refreshed and counted eight hours of sleep so I just stayed up and used the extra hour to take my time getting ...
