...men's hats come in multiple sizes while women's hats only come in one? And that one size is an inch too small for me to wear? And that the one thing I can carry off in all instances is a hat? Except for when it is too small and gives me a headache. Why me? Why ( Read more... )

So today's excitement was some ASSHOLE who was driving in front of me leaving work. He wasn't going the speed limit (on the base, he was doing like 15 though the posted speed is 25, except when he was at the gate when he crept out at like 10 miles an hour), he wasn't maintaining anything like a constant speed (it was up and down and all over the ( Read more... )

Off for parts unknown, aka Detroit.

Back in a few days. I hope! ;)

So it's been a while since I updated. Last week, I went home for my brother's wedding. My younger brother. Guess I am now officially the family spinster. The party was pretty cool even if the marriage ceremony was a disappointment to my mom as it was not a Catholic ceremony.

So my sofa eats my stuff. Things fall down between the cushion and the arm and get lodged in a small pocket between the arm and the base. I did not realize this until I dropped my DS stylus and it didn't fall out the bottom. Yeah, TREASURE TROVE ( Read more... )

Well, I won't be going to the harry potter opening night. :( I have to be up at 4 am the next morning for a meeting a few hours away. Pooh. I was actually getting excited about going.

I won my DS. Yay! Now I just have to wait for it to come and see if I got ripped off. I got four good games with it (Brain Age, CrossworDS, Touch Master 2, and Professor Layton), a few accessories (car charger, extra stylus, and a carrying case), adn the seller says it is in "like new" condition. So here's hopin'! Overall cost was just about equal ( Read more... )

So the engineering summer camp I was participating in as a mentor is over. The camp was on the base so no extra travel, but I did have to get up earlier which was rough. There is another session next week, but I was only signed on for one week. I probably could've done the second week, but I hadn't done it before and wanted to take it slow. I didn' ( Read more... )

So I am thinking of getting a Nintendo DS Lite. I am looking on ebay and the best deals seem to be the slightly scratched ones or the ones with broken hinges. I think I am going to go for a hinge one because, as an engineer, I should be able to fix it. Especially since there appear to be shell-casing replacement parts available also on ebay ( Read more... )
