The grass is green, some trees in Andover are starting to blossom, and it's nice out.

I definitely need to go for a walk today. I also need to go back to attempting to learning which bird calls go with which birds, now that they are all singing again. Mmm, bird calls...


Still not managing to sleep very well. Waking up 3 or 4 times during the night is annoying. However, whatever it was that was pending feels a bit less urgent, and therefore less distracting. Thankfully. 'Course, it being _done_ would be nice!


Watching Firefly tonight with volta and aelisdeliria. This has a very high shiny factor. :) Then! Gaming all weekend! *glee*


Today's Two Lumps is amusing.

Bits! Maybe some pieces!

*dies from the kitty cuteness*


Yes, my cat is talkative. I'm quoting my roommate, aelisdeliria, here:

Side note, unrelated - Ash just came up to my bed and said "mom? mom?" and at my response of "she'll be here soon" said "now..." rather dejectedly. And when I offered a spot on my bed he sort of went "mmm." So insanely cute! Now if only he'd not try to eat my bubblewrap! And now he's going "mom! mom!" and when I asked him if he'd like to come up and snuggle he said "no! mom.."

(oddly, he wasn't even very snuggly when I did get home last night. Didn't even get into bed with me until sometime around 6am. Perhaps I was simply too restless...)


It's Spring! I know because I was just able to have lunch outside without being too cold. A little windy, so I wore my Storigen polar fleece. But, lunch outside happened!

You'll be feeling tired and discouraged today, but will be able to raise your spirits by pretending to be a cartoon character. ACME products may be featured, as well.


(I wanna be a cartoon character!!!!!)

Must. Own. Kris Delmhorst's "Five Stories" album.

Why, you might ask?

Yellow Brick Road

[Chorus]
"I'm not on no yellow brick road, got a mind and a heart and guts of my own
I'm not looking for a one to set me free
I'm not on no yellow brick road, I'll find my own way home
I'm just looking for someone to walk with me"

Broken White Line

"And I hope that you won't rest in peace because that would bore you right to tears"

The evils of listening to WUMB (http://www.wumb.org) - entirely too much music to purchase, eventually!

So. I can't quite decide if the fact that it's _cold_ in the office (to prevent the labs from getting too warm) is worse or better than the random dripping problems I had at the _last_ job. :)

I really do hope we move to another building with better ability to handle the heat problems and power requirements of our labs... supposedly, they are working on it. My hands are too cold to type easily! *grumble*

On the plus side, I get to escape for the weekend soon!
