8711 – new house!
Moved into the new place today… got most of the furniture in, phones transferred and direct tv set up – only a few minor issues with dsl (hasn’t engaged yet).
Newt wasn’t too keen on the snatch and grab school of transport, and turned into a bit of a tasmanian devil when scooped up to head home.

Happy Birthday, kat78731! (and one year of journaling, too!)
Moved some loot over to the brown house, and did a bit of cleaning there, got a nibble from ned.org for a possible gig – we’ll see how that goes.
Saw “Dead and Breakfast” … Interesting to see Oz Perkins, but it didn’t jingle my bells so much. The commentary was more interesting than the movie itself… sounds like they had a good time making it.
| What Fantasy Archetype Are you? | |
  The Seasoned Veteran Friend You are the Seasoned Veteran Friend! You resemble Aragorn (Lord of The Rings), Merlin (Arthurian Legend), Han Solo (Star Wars), The Marquis (Neverwhere), Sirius Black (Harry Potter) and Chase (Wizard’s First Rule). You are exceedingly loyal, tricky and hardy. You regularly pull the Unlikely Hero, Mentor and Pillor-of-Strength Love Interest out of trouble and into safety. Beware The Traitor, who will make your job intensely difficult. And don’t coddle the Unlikely Hero too much, he has to learn how to fend for himself. Anyway, everyone admires you and your resourcefulness / reliability – good going! |

We go to meet Larry’s parents on Friday – spending a weekend in the Appalachians there, while Tina comes over to look after the kitties. I’m thinking that the boys may be separated for the trip… Newt in the master bedroom and Pye elsewhere, so we make sure no real fighting happens while we’re gone. The boys are rambunctious, and I doubt anything would happen, but it may be better to be safe than sorry at this early date. Tina’s going to sit them so it should be AOK. Other Possibilities are taking one kitty with us… not sure which way we’ll go just yet.
Dinner of Veggie dogs & fries tonight… took a pretty easy day today. Didn’t move any stuff – like timer says, our get up and go got up and went. Instead, we stayed home and watched Kentucky Fried Movie and a bunch of South Park episodes instead.

Gave up on Heroes and Torchwood. Heroes just didn’t wind my watch – Though I liked the basic premise and the time travel guy & mimic guy. Torchwood Lost me on the “possessed by an alien sex destroy” episode. It seemed to be more titillation, less story. It’s kind of a shame.. it could’ve been a “Hellboy” type show.
Finally saw the 2006 Xmas Who special, and I enjoyed the car chase, but I’m not too crazy about the new companion. Just a bit too bitchy for me… plus the wink/nod Rose similarities going over the other folks around. Same goes for Martha Jones.
Ever since we got the DVR, Rockford Files, Mythbusters and Black Books have been the bigger shows.
Mostly a workday today… Bhk doing law stuff, and me chewing on a lead or two. I got the qualification for unemployment in the mail today, so her work and that should help with assorted monies needed while I seek more steady gain. Tomorrow, I think we’ll start loading stuff into the brown house from the blue one. I helped Larry out at the brown place a bit – treated the water heater, pressure cleaned the deck, and put down a game plan for the roof grout & replacing the three windows that are looking like they need it.
It can be fun being a grown-up sometimes! I do regret taking down the toy train around the tree… I suspect the Xmas tree will be mulch sometime in the next three days.

Newt is buried up to his neck in laundry while I fold. I don’t blame him a bit.. warm and comfy on a drizzly rainy night!
Watched Brothers Grimm (finally – I’ve been halfheartedly trying since it was in the theater!) and, despite the negative reviews… I like it.
Moment of Lyric –
Oh ry in eye ay – oh ry in eye ay
Oh ry in eye key ooh lay
Ka kay ooh lau ee – oh ry in eye
Say te lee ay vee show

The boys continue to play together nicely… for the most part. Certainly willing to join forces against the devil vermin squirrels outside.
We saw “Night at the Museum”, and enjoyed it immensely.

Visited Misti, Neil, Daniel & Emily today with the in laws and BHK – it was fun playing belated Santa. Jason’s Deli is rapidly becoming a huge fave.. I wish we had a local salad bar and soup place as yummy. Bonus was that Ukrops had some veggie-only onion soup on hand, and it was pretty dang awesome as well.
I got a chance to play a few games of laser battle (no relation to my old chestnut of laser attack) with Daniel, and it was quite fun.. I’ll probably see what I can do to add it to our games closet.
Also exchanged travel bugs with Misti – I released one due for Brazil, and received one due for Japan, and another headed to Hawaii’i. The Brazil and Japan join BHK’s Louisville, KY one as part of the Unite for Diabetes Challenge. (The Hawaii’i one is just for funzies.)
I wish Misti the best of Luck on her first day at the new gig on Monday.
Kevin is totally spot-on with his talk about ape equality.

The sunbeam acted as a gravity well for the boys. Pye was a bit more earthbound tan Newt… maybe because he absorbs heat more efficiently?

I made it quite easily through the polar bear swim yesterday, though the bay was brisk – (between 40-45 degrees Fahrenheit, and most certainly colder than the air temp) it was misty and rainy, so some of the photos have a rather gray cast to ’em. BHK, Chris, Larry and Tina were all kind enough to come out to cheer me on, however, none went into the drink with me… I was hoping Adam might, but he was wiped out due to being the taxi driver for assorted lushes.
Pictures beneath the “brr!” – be warned, I’m a furry creature.
