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 72 - March 13, 2011


The strawberries were really good at the store this week so I bought several pints.

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...)
