Happy Birthday, Justin:

Last night, SaraRules’ mom came over for Mother’s Day dinner and a movie. She wanted pizza, so we picked up a couple of pies from Whole Foods — and they were pretty good. SaraRules also made a chocolate cream pie, which was also very tasty. For the evening’s entertainment, we watched Pandorum. It was… interesting… and not what I had gathered from the theatrical release trailers. And there were even a couple of pleasant twists. On the whole, it wasn’t an “awesome” movie, but it didn’t completely blow chunks, either.

After Bonne left, SaraRules and I spent an hour (roughly) applying primer to a wall-and-a-half in my office. You wouldn’t believe how much of a difference it made. Seriously. It was practically a day-and-night difference.

Stray Toasters

• This st00pid sore throat has ventured into the realm of full-blown head cold. BAH.
• Today is grey and rainy.
• Today is also the day that Comcast is supposed to drop our new cable line.
  1. We’ll see if the weather delays that.
  2. The service window they gave me was 8AM-8PM.
  3. *grblsnrkx*
• Lena Horne dies at 92
  • Legendary singer Lena Horne dies at 92 (USA Today coverage)
  • Legendary singer, actress Lena Horne dead at 92 (CNN coverage)
  • Stormy Weather
• Hobby Lobby’s newest – and closest to the house – location opens today. I should be more excited. I blame Comcast.
• Guest-Teaching Chinese, and Learning America
• Exploring Mortality with Clothes and a Claw
• Obama to Nominate Kagan as Justice
• 
• Annnnd, just just got off the phone from yet another Comcast collections call about the receiver and modem. I think that someone wants me to pull an Atom and come through the phone line and hand them a beat down. Idiotsticks.

Okay, I’m going to try to accomplish a few things before I have to leave…

Namaste.
