I played a little bit of Fallout 3 this afternoon while waiting for the in-laws to show up for supper - pigs in blankets! Once they got here, I got a telephone call from my mom - just gabbed a bit, but when I came back out, the in-laws were ready to take off. I guess they weren't too into The Fall. ...

Filled in from laptop - Saturday, February 21, 2009 10:35 AM Been waiting at the doctors office for about 30 minutes now - longer time than usual to get shots. BHK is getting blood work done - I’m more peeved that she has to wait than me - she has been fasting since last night and probably has...

Workitty work work. Workitty work. Workitty workitty workitty work. Sounds a bit like a train on the track, clackitty clack. Solid Day today - So much so that I snoozed a bit on the train ride home. I got a little extra time, as they were single-tracking on the green line heading toward Suitland sta...

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...

Beware the Ides of February!! Nice walkies today - cool outside, saw a couple of new neighborhood cats (as well as a few of the regulars) - There are more than a few local houses with ship's figureheads on them - one on the boardwalk puzzles me a bit, as I think they look better at the tip or meetin...

8:01 AM - Discovered the hard way that the commuter bus doesn’t take checks - thankfully the fast stop up the road has an ATM so I can pay in cash, and yoo hoo to sooth my nerves. The driver was kind enough to give me a free ride today so I am still 10 rides on the ol’ ticket. Not bad fo...

Got up, ready to head out for morning constitutional. Stopped walkies, due to bad back Stretched while BHK worked on the computer - watched Batman B&B. (Atom & Aquaman / Chemo & Brain ep) Comfy stretch so went on walkabout - Back much better. Watched a bald eagle circle overhea...

Back to work! Light dusting of big fat flakes of powdery snow which was pretty in the morning, but melted away before noon came. Larry and Chris came over for dinner of potluck leftovers - and made fresh hot dogs. Well, it was nice having them over, in any event! BHK is worried about neighborhood ki...

Just some nutshelling - Let's see: Trimmed back down to goatee. Wasn't feeling too well today. Got up at 8, went back to bed at noon, slept until 2. BHK and I stayed in most of the day, save for a trip to the library and then to Roland's to get spaghetti for tonight's dinner. (Which was super tasty)...
