I have never had the pleasure. Another Southern delicacy that will not venture North!

Finally we are expecting a good snow! Looking forward to about 10-12" falling Tuesday and Wed. Of course that means a 35 mile drive to work in 10 inches of snow Wed morning. I'm not gonna complain about the timing; just happy to be getting some decent accumulation finally!

Alas, us. Another of our boy scouts is getting married in April, right at the start of spring break. So instead of heading west we're heading south to Florida. Meh.

Headin' out to Mary Jo's fabric store (huge!) this morning with my neighbor. More to let her vent for a while than anything else. The only thing I need is a spool of clear thread for stitching on a bazillion patches on Laurel's brownie vest.

Tried to doze off because of an approaching storm (low pressure knocks me out) now I'm up because of rain hitting the window. Fun. Slow weekend here. I've done some fish plumbing repair (stupid pump died) and minor gardening, and Laurel and HPM went up to Fisher Farm in Davidson to go mountain biking this morning before the rain set in. Back to finishing up the science project. I've always hated them.

Morning. Got to sleep some time after 1 am and the alarm went off at 5 like it usually does. HPM's starting to get the crud that Laurel brought home from school. Laurel's out sick today. and I'm starting to catch it. They're blissfully asleep, and I have to wait for the school to open so I can take in Laurel's TURN IN NOW NO FAIL science project. It amazes me what they're trying to get third graders to do in school.

It amazes me what they get third graders to do!! It's not the same school we went to fo sure. I just wish they'd teach some skills that while rarely used, are still necessary, like LETTER WRITING. Grrrr.

Packing up for FL. Hello high sixties to low eighties, good bye snow and 32°!

Morning. What is it about the outdoor cats and my cup of coffee I had this morning? I set the cup down and instantly one of them sticks a paw in the cup and licks the coffee off. I shoo that one away and the next one hops up and does the same thing. Ick. I know what they walk in when they go through the garden. I just fertilized all the garden beds with chicken s--t. I dumped that one and got another cup. I kept that one indoors.

Cleaning day, whoop de doo.

Morning! Lots of fog here, then a little more rain around noon. Wouldn't mind going to see Linville Falls today, that's for sure! I saw Abrams Falls right after that "hundred year rain" in 2002. That was something else!

I remember when the big tsunami hit Indonisia in 2004. The first reports coming in spoke of 100 or 200 people dead, but then the numbers kept rising.

I got an iphone 4. I gave the droid a week (before I sent it back) so we'll see with this one. First thing, sync it with itunes. Second thing, find an alarm clock app. Fun.

Didn't notice until after 11 last night that they sold the 16 gb rather than the 32 gb phone i requested. Back to the store we go. Crap. Set the alarm too. It's under a different heading than it would be on a droid. Funny.
