NPR showed me Pink Martini, so I bought their CD. I listened to the music on their site and it's woooooooooooooooonderful.
Thank you NPR. Thank you.

I think everyone will find this as interesting as I do.
During December I've had 949 refers for strep throat image searches. The winner is this photo right here ... (scary image, just saying, it's kind of gross..)
Update: I just did a Google image search. I'm on page ONE when you search with "strep throat pictures" ....... YES!!!!!!!!!!!! I am an Internet celebrity!!!!!
UPDATE HOLY CRAP!: That's not even my website that's using my picture of my strep throat on page one of the Google image search! WTF!! I would feel all bitchy, but look, it's on a college website. Shouldn't I get some kind of honorary degree or something? MY STREP THROAT!
Update... meh: It's kind of nerdy and bizarre. I don't think I can get an honorary degree for my picture being used on a site whose title is
"Centers for Wizardry Disease Control CWDC The Top 5 Muggle Diseases affecting wizards and witches"
Nerrrrrrrds.

Hello and how are you? I'm well thank you. Mostly well, anyway. Today I've had some issues with my abdomen. It is either extremely painful gas or something terribly wrong. I'm pretty sure it's just gas, but damn. I warn my co-workers everytime we go smoke that they may want to stand away because when this stuff blows, it's gonna be wretched.
And how are you now? Yeah, sorry.
Work is going well and I have the next week off. Starting Friday. We'll be spending time with familia de copperas cove and familia de glen rose. It'll be nice. Mom put up some really awesome pictures of Sadee. That kid's cute. Can't wait to hang out with her.
Other than that, not a whole lot going on. But if you happen to know of any tech or art jobs in the Austin area, feel free to drop myself or myhusband a line. He's getting really bored.
The last couple of years there are a few things I really enjoy getting on my birthday. One is a drawing my hubsand makes for me and the other is a picture from my most special best friend and nephew, Misti n Davis. I also ALWAYS get a nice e-card from Josef. I think every year for the last ... 8 years? Hah! Josef rules. I've gotten all of them this year, along with a nice chunk to spend at Amazon from my Momma. I think I got it at about 3:50 AM and I spent it at about 4:15 AM. Finally, I will own the Star Wars Trilogy. (The good ones.) Adam has gotten me a myriad of things over the last couple of weeks and I came home last night to a wrapped present full of candy bars. hehe!
This is an excellent birthday so far. Saturday we're going to eat sushi and hang with fam and our good friends Ben and Melanie and hopefully my cousin Ben. I think we're going to play Bingo. I know. I am one step closer to the edge. I am about to break. Happy day!

DAMNIT!!!!!!!!
So I'm really mad at TiVo right now. It cut out of Survivor about 45 seconds before the bitching at the final 2 started, so I missed that and I missed the finale. I'm trying to find it somewhere online so I can actually watch the last bit of something I've been watching ALL freaking season. YOU STUPID TIVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STUPID!!!!!!!

Andrahas the cutest little girl on the face of the planet. Also, I was trying to login to her blogger to fix the comments thingy, but I can't remember her password. So I called her to get it and the one she gave me doesn't work. Dag. Cold busted.
Adam and I have a thing. Our funniest times are when we are laying in bed watching tv or chatting before we go to sleep. Last night he declared that his side of the bed is owned by the Coalition of Adam. Additionally, when I tickle him, he has a certain thing he does to "get me back" and when I declared I didn't like that one bit, he said he can't help it, it's a law in the Coalition of Adam. I'll just say he declared the Coalition of Adam Motto as "We appreciate your breasts." There will soon be a coup. Fox News will cover it.
I played a little City of Villains with my cousins and co recently. I enjoy playing with them again. My Corruptor is level 17. I really like the new Fiona Apple album. "Extraordinary Machine" is my favorite song.
My birthday is in a few weeks. I am excited to have some sushi and play bingo. Hells yeah, we're crazy. Crazy indeed.
