9602 – monday – birthday

Got my Upper GI done – will know more in 24-48 hours. A shot of fizzy pop rocks with a Barium/chalk milkshake chaser to take pictures of my plumbing.

It’s official, despite morning nausea, moodiness and dry heaves, I’m not pregnant.

This morning, when I got up – I saw my shadow, much like Punxy Phil.

After the doc, we went to have lunch at cheeburger cheeburger and then see Taken. Not bad for a fluffy "gimme back my daughter immediately or I’ll kill everyone in my way and take her back" sort of flick. spoiler, they didn’t give his daughter back immediately.

Pic of me squinting into the sun. Figured I should document my 40th b’day for posterity.

Groundhog’s Day – 2009.

Phil’s official forecast as read February 2nd, 2009 at sunrise at Gobbler’s Knob:

Hear Ye Hear Ye

On Gobbler’s Knob this glorious Groundhog Day, February 2nd, 2009

Punxsutawney Phil, Seer of Seers, Prognosticator of all Prognosticators

Awoke to the call of President Bill Cooper

And greeted his handlers, Ben Hughes and John Griffiths

After casting a joyful eye towards thousands of his faithful followers,

Phil proclaimed that his beloved Pittsburgh Steelers were World Champions one more time

And a bright sky above me

Showed my shadow beside me.

So 6 more weeks of winter it will be.

Also, Happy 40th Birthday to me!
