Thank you for the birthday wishes! I wish I could have been out playing at faire or elsewhere with y'all; I spent the day at home while our lives were being packed. 4 guys, 6.5 hours, and we think they've still got a couple of hours left with the packing before we load the truck on Wednesday. I figure that would have taken Dana and me at least 80 hours of work, plus all the stress involved -- ick.

After the packers left, we went to Expo to talk window treatments and get faucets...very exciting. Only managed to handle the faucet part, as Grumpy Window Guy was all by himself and working with another customer when we got there. 30 minutes later, we opted to set up an appointment for this Tuesday.

For dinner, we had yummy ribs and alcohol and an ice cream sundae -- it was a great ending. :)

MANY thanks to snarkymarcy for Trekkies 2! Holy crap, is this fabulous -- Dana hadn't seen the first film and was dying right along with me, but I do recommend seeing them both. There's so much -- a few highlights include:

• Bad dental work!
  
• Bad dental non-work!
  
• Gabriel! Having sex now! With a woman! Who is creepy!
  
• Star Trek quiche parties!
  
• Golfing with bat'leths!
  
• An enormous subculture of Trek-inspired bands! Playing nearly unintelligible music! Sometimes in Klingon!
  
• "I outrank thith teddy bear by sixth rankth"!
  

Anyway -- we head to Richmond with most of the wine after Mass today. I'll be out of pocket until late tomorrow night -- play nice, y'all!

Calling children of 1970s television!

Along the lines of "It's Time for Timer!" (Sunshine on a Stick, I Hanker For A Hunk Of Cheese -- both of which I think I have as .mp3 files, if anyone needs them)...

Does anyone remember a food suggestion of adding Kool-Aid (or some brand) drink mix to milk? Or should I not have had those ribs so soon before I went to sleep?
