Yesterday at work, I was talking to one of my patients about being in the hospital.  One of the only perks is being allowed to watch what you want on t.v.  So we were lamenting the fact that the Braves game was blacked out on Friday night.  As he was leaving to go back to his room, he asked for my name.

Well, a few hours later I get a phone call ( Read more... )

I'm having some weird, antsy withdrawal.  I was convinced that today was Thursday, and I was all looking forward to watching SPN tonight.  About 7pm, I realized that it was actually Wednesday.

Damn.

So I am at a total loss of how to spend my evening.  I've already done three loads of laundry.  The big decision?  Do I watch SGA, BG or Numb3rs?  I' ( Read more... )

Oh.  The joys of teaching summer camp..... Well, not actually teaching this, but I am acting as a last minute replacement for a camp counselor who had a family emergency.  Nevertheless, I am spending 8 hours a day with rising 4-5-6th graders at a physics and science camp.  Newton's Laws of Motion?  Much more interesting at the college level than at ( Read more... )

I'm glad that my fl has fun and interesting lives that I can live vicariously.  Really.

Took the Squid to her first NIN show on Wednesday.  No, she wasn't the only kid there - - I did see a few others.  But she was definintely the youngest.  She thought Bauhaus was "o.k."  When NIN first came on, she had two comments:  "I think I'm going to be ( Read more... )

You know that its time to buy a life when the highlight of your day is finding out that the frackin' network at the hospital is finally up and running! YaY! I can once again use my laptop instead of the slow-ass departmental PCs. And all the better for reading slash at work....
When did Psylocke become a bad guy? I don't ever recall her being a ( Read more... )

I am now the proud owner of season one of Numb3rs.

I am also the wife of a "terminally" ill spouse. *cough*cough*

Both Steve & the Squid have planted themselves in front of the televisions, and will not move so that I can bask in the glory that is Numb3rs.

*pout*

We're (the hubby, the Squid and I) back from our excursion to Cumberland Island. At some point, pictures will be posted. It was quiet, restful, hot and tick season. Nevertheless, we had a good time, and came home without any pesky little buggers attached to our flesh. It was also nesting season for loggerhead turtles, and we got to see a female ( Read more... )

The Squid officially finished 2nd grade today, which we celebrated with a parent v. teacher kickball game and a trip to see X-Men 3. Syd's pretty knowledgable about the mutant-verse, so she pretty much understood what was going on, including the Jean Grey/Phoenix story line. BTW, the parents won, 23-9, and we got t-shirts proclaiming us "Fairly ( Read more... )
