Viral Music Infection
After last week's incredibly fun night of rockin' out with damesilibo, it appears that I have contracted a viral music infection.
BEWARE! Once you get Horrorpops in your head, you may not be able to get them out.
I would usually pull out Hamster Dance in an extreme emergency like this, but even it's unholy power is no match for "Baby Lou Tattoo" (an ode ( Read more... ) -
The Official Estimate is In
Yay! The official repair estimate for the Beetle is in.
*NOT* totalled.
$7,526 for parts & labor. ( Insurance is paying. )
18 days of repair time once parts arrive this week.
There's a chance that I might be able to take it to NBeast 2006 after all. -

Beetle status
Computer aided details are expected later today, but the word "repairable" was uttered.
If I'm improbably lucky, I'll have it back all nice and shiny in time for:

Sadly, that noise we heard late, late last night was *NOT* the cats making trouble.
It was the entire top of a tall maple tree breaking off and falling on my new (to me) car.
As you can see below, the damage could have been much, much worse.

"Yoinked" from a friend of a friend

Sonofabitch!!!
I just had a great, overdue week of vacation.
Well-rested, I spontaneously awoke at 6AM and cheerfully went in to work.
Had my boss been in, he would have had a heart attack to see me there at 7:30 AM.
But no, TODAY WAS A CORPORATE HOLIDAY.
AAAAUUUGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!
