Got home tonight, and found out our water isn’t draining properly. Larry came by and tried plunging, but to no avail. Tomorrow, he’s bringing the snake by to take care of business.
I like that phrase… like an enforcer, “Tomorrow, the snake will take care of business”.
Hm.. or something pornographic, maybe.
Not much today – Worked, a very long meeting midday. Got some solid brainstorming done, and possibly a good lead for some side help from BR.
Got home, and BHK made me veggie…
Chris played hooky today, so I got a later ride in to work with BHK… an extra span of sleep does a world of good.
Work – solid. lots of testing, meetings planned.
After work, BHK picked me up, and we went to go see the 7pm showing of Juno at Annapolis.
There was no 7pm showing at Annapolis, despite what yahoo movies says.
So, we got tickets for the 8:20 show, did a little clothes shopping for BHK (got a new top and hat), then went to dinner at red robin (I got teriyaki pinapple veggie burger – bhk got the same with critter burger.) Bottomless steak fries are good, but only served up in tiny portions at a time.
Wandered around the hiking trail shop – looked at kayaks and bikes. Met a friendly salesman, very knowledgeable, and a know-it-all one-upsman. Steve will be who we buy from, should we come back, not the KIA.
I’m looking forward to warmer weather and heading out on the water.
Saw Juno – It was quite good, despite the overwritten “super-hip/ironic” dialogue in the first part of the movie. Nice range of characters… some I liked, some I didn’t.
Will Smith has joined the ranks of Hollywood power players actively recruiting for the Church of Scientology. Big stars traditionally distribute “wrap presents” to crew members after completing a film. His recent gift after wrapping next summer’s comedy “Hancock” was a card good for a personality test at your local Scientology center.
Thanks, but no thanks, Fresh Prince.

Called in sick to work – made a trip to the dentist to deal with that cracked tooth.
Before my root canal, we stopped for stuffed crust pie at pizza hut – bhk and I didn’t figure I’d be in the mood to eat after having my choppers done… fate was not on my side.
Unfortunately, I ordered a quepapa appetizer – one of those little tater tot things got caught in my throat, and seared the back of my esophagus. Our server tried to administer the Heimlich maneuver by grabbing me around my neck……

Not much today – Worked, a very long meeting midday. Got some solid brainstorming done, and possibly a good lead for some side help from BR.
Got home, and BHK made me veggie meatballs, salad, and best of all, surprised me with my dream cake of chocoate / chocolate with mandarin oranges as a garnish. Yumma.

Discombobulated and out of sorts today. Maybe I’m coming down with something? All BHK and I (mostly just me) did today was sleep and slug about.
Caught up with Alien in America… still have to polish off a few more tivo shows getting caught up due to writers strike and previously mentioned sluggishness.
Capsule TV reviews:
Alien in America – Good stuff, and got better at the end. I’m really surprised that something that has the potential to be a one-trick pony turned out as pleasant as…
Quickie follow-up – We didn’t see Juno – Both showings were sold out. Instead we hit Golden Compass. It was visually pleasing – script wise and acting wise, not so much. Ah, well. Sad day when armored polar bears and zeppelins *done right* can’t make up for an otherwise poorly paced and poorly acted film.
A reminder – Compass is rated pg-13. Not for little kidlets, despite talking animals. There are some scary and violent moments not suitable for most young kids (or nervous grownups.)

Unfortunately, I ordered a quepapa appetizer – one of those little tater tot things got caught in my throat, and seared the back of my esophagus. Our server tried to administer the Heimlich maneuver by grabbing me around my neck… so while I was busy trying to expel the spud that had grafted itself to my windpipe, I got to fight off a caring, yet misguided attempt at stopping me from choking by strangulation.
Hit the dentist, and he had a lot of trouble.. abscess. I got a perscription for penecillin (I didn’t know that they still did that, rather than all the alternates these days…) and filled it a tthe local walgreens. BHK – not one to be outdone by my accident prone-ness, got her finger caught in a shiatzu machine there.. nothing broken, just a nasty pinch.
Bah, says we… she was fine, and we zipped past the ATW man (see below) on the way home.
got home, played a little HL2, and am now watching psych with BHK.

Capsule TV reviews:
Alien in America – Good stuff, and got better at the end. I’m really surprised that something that has the potential to be a one-trick pony turned out as pleasant as this. I hope that they can stay on top of it, but still fear it’ll lose steam.
Bionic Woman – Just isn’t ringing my bell. Another case of “Buffy / Firefly” for me, maybe. I just can’t get too enthused about it. Keeping it on the Tivo for when we have a rainy day and I’m willing to give the show another chance. Hasn’t hit my “3 strikes” rule yet.
Chuck – (seen 2 eps including pilot) Failed so far where Alien in America has succeeded. I think it could improve once it gets some momentum.
Reaper (seen 2 eps, including pilot) – I like this more than BHK, but it also suffers from Chuck syndrome so far, but I think it could get better, too.
Journeyman (seen pilot) – so far, so good. I suspect this’ll be then next one to be gobbled up, viewing-wise. Sadly, I think it has been cancelled.
I’m not sure where my energy went. I suspect it’s post holiday fatigue.
Babysat Tigger again… she’s a little love rag… doesn’t seem to miss the in-laws much, as long as she’s fed and petted now and again… not like clingy newt at all.
