Happy Star Wars Day

May the forth be with you! This became the joke of Star Wars day after George Lucas on a German television show was asked his favorite line from the movies to which he replied “May the force be with you.” The translator said it in German “We are with you on May 4th”. Given enough…

Saturday Random Thoughts

I will be spending the weekend watching the first two seasons of The Guild. I admit it, I did some on-line gaming for a while. While I didn’t do World of Warcraft, the game I did play had the idea of guilds. Geeks are scary when they organize. I guess that’s why I find the…

Week in Review

It’s Friday! Woo-hoo! My week started out bad! I won’t go into the details of why. I have decided I don’t want to write about it yet. But Hubman did. If you read him (and why don’t you?), he wrote about it. There are a few things I have done – so if you notice…

Week Wrap-Up and Friday Field Trips

My week has been …..yawn……boring. You see, I’m a multitasker. I love having a huge to-do list. I love plowing through it. I like thinking about 12 things at once. But, my job is to do ONE project. And no one is 100% dedicated to it. So, when things are scheduled and everything is updated,…

Random Friday Post & Week Wrap Up

The chicken obsession in the house is getting a little out of control.  Garbanzo says we need this for the holidays next year:Yes, the chicken nativity.  My husband – the Buddhist – wants a nativity scene because there are chickens.  Yes, there is something wrong with it. Also, I was reminded once again why I…

Friday Fun

Came across this earlier and decided it was definitely needed today. You’ve seen those “Life is Good” shirts/hats/etc?  There is a counterpart out there.  Life is Crap.

The Educator

Over the weekend, an envelope arrived to the house with “DO NOT BEND” written all over it.  Garbanzo immediately hands it to me.  While my name was on it, it just meant that he had used my Paypal account to buy something.  I asked what it was – and he said open it.  He had…
