My mother got a tattoo of Curious George in tree pose (with cute spiral tail, not seen on the actual Curious George) on her right ankle. This makes a little more sense when you know a common moniker she goes by is "Yogamonkey". It is still weird.

I got up this morning and drove to Brooklyn Park Middle School, which apparently was closed due to a light dusting of snow that's everywhere right now. For confirmation, I walked into the building and sure enough, upon entering the office ( Read more... )

This morning, Tomko and I slept in a bit figuring that since we could go to the MVA Express for ID card/renewal, it would be better than the MVA itself. (Out-of-staters: The Motor Vehicle Administration is the same as all the other states' DMV, we just call it something else ( Read more... )
