Day 84 - March 25, 2011
Campus is closed for spring break and staff gets today off. I am currently at home, in my Pink Floyd jammie pants and watching the shows I've DVR'd this week.

Day 83 - March 24, 2011
The cat will NOT stop stalking me. Everywhere I go, she has to be there and as close to me as possible. This is when she jumped up onto the desk and fooled me that she was going to just lay down near me and give up. Rather, she lulled me into a false sense of security and then came over and laid down, plopping her 40 pound head on my hand and began demanding that I pay the proper amount of attention to her.

Day 78 - March 19, 2011
Went hiking in Two Rivers Park and these were some of the sights. The first two were along the swamp where the Spousal Unit so helpfully reminded me that "water moccasins are out early this year". 'Cause, yeah, that's reassuring. The third picture is looking up at the gated community that gets to look down on the park and everyone else :).
We passed this sign on the way into Two Rivers. The first words out of the mouths of the Spousal Unit and me were "I wonder what they asked them." (Later I did Google to find out that Polled Herefords are apparently Herefords without horns - so anticlimactic!)
Day 77 - March 18, 2011
The cats continued to entertain me this week. I was sitting in the office working on the computer when I heard snuffling. Turned around to find Curious Grace in this position on the top of the filing cabinet. Boy, wish I could get a handle on the sleep anywhere/anytime thing!

Day 76 - March 17, 2011
Yup. It's a pad of paper :). I found out on very short notice (like, one day) that I would be taking over a second graduate program coordinator role in addition to the one I already perform along with my other duties. This pad is the result of one very long brain suck today with the abdicating coordinator. Most of the pad is filled.
Day 75 - March 16, 2011
I saw this on a freeway overpass. If you can't read it, it says, "Bobby Ray, I'm yours 4ever. Julia 9/90". Either Julia is one devoted girl or Bobby Ray and she are the approximate sizes of Godzilla and Gamera.

Day 74 - March 15, 2011
The cat. She amuses me. This is her standard television watching position - lays down, tilts her head back and looks up at the TV.

Day 73 - March 14, 2011
The cat's second favorite position: curled up on the back of the couch with her face smashed into the couch itself, And then she snores. Loudly.

Day 62 - March 3, 2011
I had several people ask me about my gloves this week so I took a picture of them and "spread the gospel" of competing in MMA a bit.

Day 61 - March 2, 2011
Please wish me well on my new career as a human pincushion :). This is the med the doctor and I are hoping will show some results. They had me do the initial injection in his office to make sure I didn't have any problems with it. The only problem I could find is if you're standing up to do this, it's kinda hard to see past the chestal area (Note: better to do this sitting...)

Day 59 - February 28, 2011
My new best friend. I finally called the doctor to get off the Pills of Nasty Side Effects and now I can't sleep.

Day 57 - February 26, 2011
...and a semblance of order is restored. Please ignore the freaking footprints on the coffee table. I'd just cleaned that before I went out to return the vacuum I'd borrowed and apparently the furry feline creature to the right decided it was her task, nay, her duty to mark it up again. Grrrr...

Day 56 - February 25, 2011
The Spousal Unit is away at the men's retreat. Anyone wanna guess what I'm spending my weekend doing?

Day 53 - February 22, 2011
The Spousal Unit is now playing Farmscape as well. Avoidance tendencies. I has them. I pass them on :).

Day 52 - February 21, 2011
This is Munchkin under the bed in our bedroom where she is NOT supposed to be. The bedroom tends to be the warmest room in the apartment so I will leave the door open while I do my hair and makeup. Normally, she is very good about not trying to sneak her way in but lately she's been skulking in and diving under the bed before I can grab her. Today, I decided to go with the flow and grab some pictures.
Pa-pa...Pa-pa...Pa-parazzi!!! (I got her to do something embarrasingly Pavlovian for a feline to get her out of the bedroom shortly after this picture was taken. I grabbed a bag of Nana's kitty treats and shook them. Munchkin shot out of there faster than a greased pig :)).

Day 50 - February 19, 2011
This is an avatar-type that has set on my desk for the last several years. Today, she is supposed to be exhorting me to work on the story that is residing on my jump drive. What you can't see is she actually currently glaring at me because instead of the story being open on my desktop screen right now, there is a game of Farmscape.
Yeah...avoidance tendencies. I has them :P.

My other granddaughter, Emery, modeling the latest in baby "old man pants" as my daughter termed it :).

Day 45 - February 14, 2011
For your pixelated pleasure :). Today I start the last round in Proving The Medication Doesn't Work. Unfortunately, that means the maximum dose and the maximum side effects which include (but are not limited to) nausea, fatigue, somnolence, numbness and painful, sharp tingling in my hands and feet. I mean, really, if I'm going to have Spidey sense, can't I at least have nifty webs to shoot or something?

Day 44 - February 13, 2011
I was the sub for dinner in our Life Group tonight. I made Chocolate Stout Chili and a new bread recipe - Confetti Fiesta Bread. The bread looks like the picture in the magazine. I'll have to report back later on the taste...

Day 43 - February 12, 2011
Pictures taking while hiking along the Isabella Jo trail of the Big Dam Bridge. Original pictures are alongside further futzing with the I-wanna-be-Photoshop program.

Day 42 - February 11, 2011
Bad picture today because I can't figure out how to get rid of the glare.
We just had to switch from Comcast to ATT/U-verse which comes with a DVR. And, wonder of wonders, has an iPhone app which lets me set up recording stuff from anywhere as long as I've got my iPhone with me.
Technology is cool!

Day 40 - February 9, 2011
Work was closed today due to the Snowpocalypse so I spent some more time than usual reading my devotional book.
