On a fandom-y note, I'm watching the first SG-1 episode appearance of Jonas Quinn. Oh Jonas, I had forgotten how adorably nerdy you were. Also, Daniel ascending! And poor Jack having to deal with Daniel and the naquadriah radiation poisoning ( Read more... )

Okay. So I got a call at 7:30 this MORNING from someone with a 608 area code who wanted to know if the Madison Scottish country dance group had a performance tonight so he could write about it for a school assignment. Not only did he have to get my number from the MILWAUKEE dance page, but my number is a MILWAUKEE area code. Right below that ( Read more... )

I'm a non-select for the 0904 USAF officer board. Can't say I'm not disappointed, but I'm glad I (finally) know one way or the other.

For the record, they chose 114 out of 1200 applicants. 72 Civilian, 42 Active Duty.

First day of training as a Census enumerator, or a "QC Lister" as they're calling it, which made me think of Lister from Red Dwarf. :) I got fingerprinted, and signed 10,000 forms insuring we won't give out personal information under threat of prison for no less than 5,000 years, and received our HHCs (Hand-held computers ( Read more... )

There were nursing students at the Y today checking blood pressure with information on heart attacks and strokes and whatnot. Anyway, my blood pressure was 112/68. Booyah!!

I'm going to bed shortly, but the show opened this weekend, and it's going quite well thus far. The Pavilion is a lovely show, with great actors and a good story. AND, more importantly, no sliding walls! No heavy rotating set pieces! I do this cool thing with this fabric that's supposed to represent a lake that gets pulled through a "sewer grate" ( Read more... )
