Crunch Time

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. We’re getting down to the end of the year crunch time. Our class final is due this week, plus we’re wrapping up Christmas shopping, Zozer has been sick (nothing major…just a stomach bug) and things sorta piled up from getting ready for the Grand Lighting.

The eyes have it

Or, rather, one eye has it. A virus. A veyerus, so to speak. Well, not so much the eye as the eyelid, which is much preferable to having a virus in the actual eye. Basically, I have a cold sore on my left eyelid, which is itchy and painful and quite disgusting.

Contentment

Sorry no posts since Thursday. Friday was busy at work, then Friday night (into Saturday morning, then, after a brief sleep, all day Saturday) was spent readying the house for The 2008 Grand Lighting Celebration Saturday night. Party went well…lots of fun, food, lights… We’ll try to get the show videotaped again this year and I’ll post another clip.

Boomba…HEY!

When I was a sophomore in high school, my guidance counselor called me into his office one day and said, “There’s a program I think you’d like, but you need to take some tests to get into it. Want to try?” Being young and naive, I said, “Sure!” with no hesitation. I don’t remember even asking much about what the program was or what the tests involved. We scheduled some times over the next couple of weeks and I’d show up and he’d put me through what I thought were some pretty silly tests.
