Last night on my way home from Patric & Tiffany's house, I stopped at the DQ on the corner of 25th and Division.  I had to buy one last blizzard from them before they closed today.  I know that they'll be open again next year about half a block south of the corner, but it just won't be the same.  The corner looks so different already with the auto ( Read more... )

I'm not too happy right now.  I want to get a discounted ticket for the football game on Saturday, but apparently the alumni office believes that office hours are merely guidelines on when someone *might* be in the office.  I tried calling on Friday multiple times before I finally left a message and I never received a call back until today.  I was ( Read more... )

Let me start this with an inspirational quote... “Don’t let babies sleep on a pallet on the floor either.  Someone could trip and fall on them.”  This lovely gem of wisdom was from a brochure about how babies should sleep in cribs published by the MN Department of Health.  Because there are sooo many people that have pallets in their home and think ( Read more... )

Trivia weekend is almost a month away and i just can't seem to get excited about it.  Maybe it's just too many years in a row of themes that i don't like.  Maybe it's all the prep work that goes into hosting it.  I don't know.  There was the initial excitement when we received the visual trivia, but now I just can't search for that anymore.  Paul ( Read more... )

I'm not really on vacation, just taking a week off from work because I needed to use some vacation time.  Don't really have anything planned for the week, and that's perfect.

Tonight, I have a concert at a nursing home.  I should probably practice a little bit today.  I need to break in a new reed, and it's probably best not to start a new reed at a ( Read more... )

Yesterday started out pretty awesome.  We purchased a Black Friday doorbuster TV online.  So Paul didn't have to wake up so early today and stand out in the cold.  There was also free shipping, we just have to wait about a week and a half for it to be delivered.  Then we will actually start using our basement.  We've never had a TV so big before ( Read more... )
