Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday…

Work. Yay. Two down… three to go. Unless I decide to take Friday off. Decisions, decisions. It was a rather uneventful day, which is not necessarily a “bad” thing. However, I did make a less than glorious discovery: It seems that the copy of Goblet of Fire is woefully incomplete! Whomever posted it only got half to two-thirds of it. BAH!!! Fortunately, a co-worker has all of the books on tape; I shall have to go analog to hear the fate of young Master Skywalker Potter and Dumbledore Kenobi.

Talk of the Nation did a segment about Amtrak and Train Nostalgia. I’m a bit of a train/railroad buff, so I really enjoyed this. It also reminded me of a couple train trips that I have taken and the fact that I used Amtrak to ship many of my things here when I moved to Utah. I want to go on a train trip, but the rail lines here are somewhat limited in where you can go: Denver or Reno. Oh well, a beggar should not a chooser be.

Quote of the Day: Today’s words o’ wisdom come from Dee. Gary and I were talking about the fact that we dressed “opposite” of each other today: Gary in a blue shirt with tan pants, me in a tan shirt and blue pants. Dee, looking at his outfit said:

    “This shirt could have blue in it.” (It seemed to contain a very deep navy in it.) “How do you like my outfit? You’re going to see it again tomorrow… and the day after that… and the day after that. I’m going to save myself the trouble of having to find something to wear by wearing the same thing everyday. Just go home and hop in the shower with it.”

    Gary, Lynn and I noted that this gives new meaning to “wash & wear.”

    Dee: They say that Einstein had seven suits, all the same, so that he didn’t have to worry about what to wear. I have one outfit. I’m seven times smarter than him!

Peace.
