Happy Easter / springtime / fertility / whatever from Newton and all of us, dear Journal!

newthelper-bunny
We woke early this morning – exchanged easter baskets! BHK loaded me up with jellybeans, gummi lobsters and chocolate covered potato chips, while I got her peanut butter eggs, tie-dye plastic eggs, lip balm and ceramic bowls. 🙂

Kitties were happy to play with catnip from the garden – growing well already.

BHK gave Mr. Woods an assortment of flowers from our garden to put on his wife’s grave – colorful… yellows, reds, and lavender.

I was really beat – back bothering me – I had some lunch and had a nap – woke up at 8:30pm.

Have a wornderful day, dear journal!

Happy St. Patty’s, All you Irish!
(And I think everyone is Irish today.)

In-laws and Adam came over tonight – BHK made wonderful Thai Curry soup, and it was a meal fit for a king!

Added Bonus of the day – she got a food processor for $13 – price must’ve been marked wrong, as it said $26 (on sale from $40ish)

It’s a school night – just enough time to fix Adam’s mac and hit the sack! G’nite, dear journal!

I’m a little out of whack today – hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Quiz-meme –

With technology on our doorstep and it’s affect on daily living, how concerned are you?
Tag your friends and see what they think. Cut and paste the questions and replace my answers with your own.

2. Do you feel intrusions into our very thoughts by technology in the next 10 years?
Facebook and Livejournal are already here!

3. If transactions become entirely electronic, do you feel that every thing you buy, sell or earn will be recorded?
Absolutely.

4.Of the 3 questions above, do you feel this data will be accessible by government and industry?
Yes.

5. Do you think this information could be used to control you in any way? Mishandled?
Certainly, which is why I suspect currency will not die.

6. Are you aware that scanning devices are now capable of translating our thoughts?
To a degree.

7. Are you aware that devices are becoming so small and integrated that they could be as small as a cell phone, and perform all of the actions exampled above including what cell phones already do now?
yes

8. After viewing this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ-VjUKAsao and reading this article http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn16751-brain-scan-reveals-memories-of-where-youve-been.html
Do you still doubt the future possibility of technology?
Nope

9. would you like to play a game of poker wearing such a device if no one realized your ability?
nah

10. Do you think others would?
yes

Happy PI day! To celebrate, we went out for pancakes at the Main Ingredient with Duncan, J, and Sean. A nice time, and we piddled around the stationary store next door to digest afterward. (Picked up a set of cute barrettes for BHK!)

For the record, Pyewacket could care less if it was PI day, Pie day or Pye-day.

Midday, we headed home, swung by the candy store and got our mail, a brief stop at Coffee, Tea & Whimsy for a wine-tasting (well, I was there for the snacks), picked up some crabby crackers, a loaf of italian brad and some pasta sauce, spent $10 to support breast cancer awareness (BHK got a homemade pin, I got a sleeve of sugar cookies)

and watched Mr. Meaty. BHK said that it’s like that show is in my head… episodes today were about Zombies and a Planet of the Apes sort of parody.. the show just hits things right on the nose. Thanks, Canada!

This evening, we had a minimalist supper (nibbles above), and watched the 2008 Bangkok Dangerous – I was a little disappointed, and BHK was more so.

BHK enjoyed the Sex in the City movie in part tow of our "flush out our old netflix" film fest more, and I thought it was a passable chick flick based on a girl’s TV show, but not much more than that.

Still getting used to the time change – I’m a sleepy bear today.

Brought Donna some Irish Potato Candy for St. Patty’s Day – (Sort of like this ) – It went over well – Cinnamon sugar and coconut make a lovely combo and look like potatoes!

Love cube is at the car doctor, to check out his headlight, tires, and frame issues. Let’s see if insurance likes what the mechanic has to say.

via dcist –  This looks like a fun project for history and photography buffs alike. Flickr user jasonepowell is taking old photos and finding the location at which they were shot and, as you can see, overlaying them for a whole new image.

Mostly speaking through pictures this evening – before heading out tonight, I got my allergy shots, had a haircut at the local barber ($10!) and a lunch of mixed media in Deale – between the in-laws, BHK and I, we had White pizza with carrot, broccoli and asparagus / california roll / hush puppies / a hamburger & fries / fired mushrooms / veggie lo mein.
 
Hush puppies were the clear winner for me.
 
Headed back home to get ready for the party – black suit, purple shirt and tie, the requisite beads, and my multi-colored all-stars. BHK wore her green paisley top and purple boots / wrap combo. 

Good food at Mardi Gras too – drunken noodles my fave, but all of the feed was pretty tasty. Photos from today- BHK, me, stilt man, Newton, Pyewacket 

Mardi Gras! Fun date night for BHK and me.

I really like the Prince George’s Plaza Metro station, even if it is in a fairly rough neck of the woods.

0224091804.jpg

The whole place is just a neat design… lots of concrete, textures and angles hidden everywhere. I have half a mind to design a Counterstrike level for it. (Like I have that kind of time – Too many other things occupying my life to spend 30 hours building a level that will never get any play.

A pity it wasn’t one of the locations used in Fallout 3.

After work today, it was off to get our overdue weekly luxury of soda pop and two $1 scratch off tickets – results were the standard "we didn’t win anything, let’s drown our sorrows in a diet cherry dr pepper"

So.. What did I give up for lent? Just a bit of sloth, I think. I’m going to shoot for more vigorous walkies and getting back on my regular exercise regimen.

BHK made some tasty noodles w/ peas, broccoli and "meatballs" in a cream sauce. Good hearty stuff – Enough to take some with me to work tomorrow for lunch!

Happy Fat Tuesday!

In-laws came over and we all had pancakes for Dinner tonight – along with some deviled / boiled eggs, it made for a tasty end of the day.

Larry and I tried spotting the green comet Lulin tonight, but to no avail – the neighbor’s house blocked out that part of the horizon. Maybe sometime this weekend, we can head out to the boardwalk and try to spot a section that isn’t too lit up.

Word of the Day – EVOE! (from the Conception of Dionysus)

"Zeus stretched out on Semele’s bed in the form of a bull with human limbs. Then he was a panther. Then a young man with vine shoots in his curls. Finally he settled into that most perfect of shapes: the serpent. Zeus prolonged their union like some story without end, a rehearsal of the life of the god about to be generated. The snake slithered over Semele’s trembling body and gently licked her neck. Then, gripping her bust in one of his coils, wrapping her breasts in a scaly sash, he sprinkled her not with poison but with liquid honey. The snake was pressing his mouth against Semele’s mouth, a dribble of nectar trickling down onto her lips intoxicated her, and all the while vine leaves were sprouting up on the bed and there was a sound of drums beating in the darkness. The earth laughed. Dionysus was conceived just as Zeus shouted the name with which for centuries he was to be evoked: ‘Evoe!’"

Hooray for Having the Day off! Thanks, Presidents!

Slept in for a bit, but not too long. Up at about 9am and then we frittered around until about 1 – played more indiana jones lego, and hung out. We decided to hit the 4pm showing of Coraline in 3-D – but before we left, Larry swung by – he needed me to reset the password on an old laptop he had. Found a great utility to do that – boot from CD, run a little line of code, and presto- reset. I’m keeping the CD in my library in case I’ll need it again – I have little doubt that it’s a one-shot item, given the number of computer users in my life.

Anyhow, we went to Annapolis to catch Coroline [corrected form Caraline!]- it was a great movie, very immersive, and the story was nicely spooky, but kid-ish. I wouldn’t have trouble taking my neice and nephew to go see it – they’re 11 and 6. BHK and I noshed on a big tub of corn and diet-soda, so we weren’t too hungry for dinner after the flick. We headed home, waved to the ATW man (skiing at the moment) and got comfy on the couch.

A couple of last-minute chores to do – folding laundry and such, and we watched the season finale of Dr. Who… not bad. I liked seeing the army of companions / spinoff folks all working together.

Dinner was tasty remainder of the matzo ball Soup and pair of quorn patties with munster cheese for dinner. After the Who, we caught up with an episode or two of Ugly Betty.

It’s a "school night", so off to bed early for me! until later, dear journal.

Groundhog’s Day – 2009.

Leave a comment

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.

Happy Year of the OX! Happy B’day MissV!

Hectic day at work today – lots done, lots to do.

After work, BHK picked me up, and we stopped by Dream Wizards – unfortunatly closed, so we settled for MOM’s got a few little sundries – beans, bread, veggie-chips

We went to the Vegetable Garden with Todd – he’s in town for a couple of days, and we’re happy to take advantage of having him local! It was nice visiting with him, and hopefully we can catch him again tomorrow before he high-tails it back to South Florida.

Quote of the night – "Should I take the shoe or the duck? … Well, the Shoe comes with maple syrup!" Todd got the Duck, anyhow. I suspect the shoe was tastier.

Note –

GEN. WILMINGTON’S SHOE –Ingredients: Veggie sable (made of soy protein), red onion & white mushrooms wrapped & baked in puff pastry sheets.  Garnished with steamed snow peas & carrots.  Served with organic maple syrup.

Veggie-Duck w/Asparagus Ingredients: Yuba (Fresh Tofu Skins), Potatoes, Black Mushroom in Brown Sauce. Garnished with Yellow Squash, Asparagus and Carrots.

Friday at last. Got a long weekend ahead of me – but I’ve got a couple of issues I’ve got to tend to before I fully relax. Two things for work to get in alignment – Wednesday will have to go for it! 4 day weekend ahead. Part of it will be spent celebrating the new prez, but most of it will be just relaxing. I’ll see if BHK wants to go on a little date maybe, too.

Low today of 7 degrees Fahrenheit.  (High of 22). If it’s going to be this cold, it could at least snow, but it is as sunny as can be.

Trimmed back the beard – may return to goatee on the weekend. It’s really good at fighting the cold, though.

Rest in Peace, #6 and Mr. Roarke. I hope the new islands suit you both, glad you spent so much time on this one.

A cat named Sammy was usually seen lounging in the window of the post office in Notasulga, Alabama until someone complained.

“They said ‘This is a federal building and he doesn’t pay federal taxes so he can’t come in’,” said postal worker Rochelle Langford.

But Sammy’s supporters think they have found a way around the banishment. They have rented a post office box in his name!

Speaking of Orange Kitties –

newt leaps newtcam

Forgot to post this on Monday – Newt leaps in from the side of Newtcam! BHK said that something got into his head and he went on a tear through the house—up and down the stairs and jumping on all the cat furniture. Pye and BHK as usual looked at him like he was a crazy orange beast 😀

Farewell, Christmas lights… North Beach is slowly taking them all down. All that remained this morning were the igloo, santa, a reindeer, and one lone tree, where there was once a dozen or so.

Our lights are off, but not yet down – maybe this weekend, the roof will get cleared.

Molecular Analysis Confirms Tyrannosaurus Rex’s Evolutionary Link To Birds

Putting more meat on the theory that dinosaurs’ closest living relatives are modern-day birds, molecular analysis of a shred of 68-million-year-old Tyrannosaurus rex protein — along with that of 21 modern species — confirms that dinosaurs share common ancestry with chickens, ostriches, and to a lesser extent, alligators.

Regular day in ol’ Scottoville, dear journal.

Icy, cold rain all day – bhk and I came home, and she had some tasty quiche for us to munch for dinner.

We both chatted a bit with Angie Goff last night via mogulus – I’m not sure if it’s what I want ot use to strema newtcam, but it is a good little website, once you work out the kinks. Also so Kim Martucci on video as well – it was fun chatting with both of ’em!

It occurs to me that I haven’t yet mentioned my Christmas loot. here is a brief list, likely in need of more detail later.

Here are some of the goodies I got this year, in no particular order, just off the top of my head:

  • Some wonderful coupons – BHK’s undying love, homemade fudge and dinner of my choice!
  • Battery charger – runs on usb or wall plug
  • book on playing the bass guitar
  • bananagrams game – I love the bag and the pieces – can’t wait to play
  • scrabble poker game
  • a bubble-balance (on a keyring)
  • a snakehead fish plushie (in orange and green)
  • Several books – Some Steven Fry, The Twelve, a book of goofy letters sent to companies, National Musueum, assorted super-hero, and other keen tomes
  • a shoeshine sponge
  • Wings of War – Balloon-Busting Biplane combat game from Danny
  • $200 coupon good for cash transfer into the bank
  • A boatload of candy, cookies and such! Including homemade haystacks from BHK – crunchies, butterscotch and peanut held together with chocolate. yum!
  • Baked goods of many varieties
  • a tea towel
  • Oranges & assorted citrus (also a chocolate orange)
  • A lovely blue striped sweater, that actually fits
  • 2 new train cars for my engine – a flat freight and a yellow grain container
  • A miniature Stonehenge kit (will look good by the train)
  • a laser-pointer/flashlight gizmo
  • best of the Thunderbirds on dvd (the puppet tv show, not the rock band)
  • a tissue box cover made of scrapbook paisley and clip art frogs
  • a martha stewart pie cutter/server

Did I forget anything? Sure I did… but I’ll mention them as they pop up either in use or conversation.

Caught a bit up on work today – warming up for tomorrow and this week. I guess the Winter Holidays are over, at least until 1/20 (day off for the inauguration).

I seem to be doing a bit better today – still a drop in appetite, but the jaw is feeling less like a stab in the ear-hole with a sharp stick.

Shaun, Jay, and Duncan come over for pasta & broccoli, and we hang out until I need to hit the sack. It’s a school night! We chitty chatted for a long while and Duncan was very gentle with the kitties.

Farewell, 2008! It was a pretty nice time, all told.

In attendance to watch the ball drop (and play some Arkham horror, Witch Trial, If Wishes were fishes, Easter Island, etc)

[edit – I won Easter Island, Either Amy or BHK won Witch Trial(I have since forgotten) , Nobody won Arkham Horror(AIEE!), and Shaun won If Wishes Were Fishes.]

BHK, the in-laws, Shaun W, and Amy all made it to hang out, eat snacks, and stay up until the extra :60 rolls over.

until I recap more, have some spooky christmas decoration photos taken up the street.
