10 things I've done that you probably haven't:

Toured Natural Bridge Caverns.

Lived in Germany for three years as a guest of Uncle Sam.

Met Lloyd Blankenship at Origins. ( I can see those that never heard of Steve Jackson Games going... WHOOOOOOOOO?)

Seen the tomb that's at Penn State University.

Seen the actual documents signed by members of Aleister Crowley's coven.

Been right outside the gates of the US Bullion Depository and lived within a few miles of it for over a year.

Stood on the back of an M1A1 tank while six months pregnant.

Been to Legoland in Denmark.

Camped at Belton Lake and the neighboring Girl Scout camp

Been to the Juliette Gordon Low birthplace as a registered Girl Scout..

Scanning the last of the Miniatures Showcase magazines, seems I had one more than I thought.

Dropped off Wrinkle in Time and a few others in the city library's drop box. I still have a Jude Deveraux to read and two audio books to listen to. Have one book and a few DVDs from the other library. I checked one out on the Tsars of Russia and Tom got one called Vampires. I got one out for Kevin that stars Humphrey Bogart, but he never watched it. Will have to get there on Saturday or wait until Tuesday when Kevin has off again.

6:50 AM
Finished Miniature Showcase and now scanning the second of my personal references notes on miniatures.

RPd for a while tonight. Needed to reboot, didn't log back in afterward.

Listening to Post Mortem by Patricia Cornwell.

6:31 PM
It seems there was a bit more to what happened yesterday about Tom and his friend Chris. Last weekend Tom invited another friend over to game. He did not uninvite Chris, he invited the other guy to play, too. Tom is getting the feeling that it's a jealousy issue. Chris never made any such remarks until someone else was invited along for the ride. I really have to wonder what brought it on, if not jealousy.

Still listening to Post Mortem. I think I figured out who did it, but who knows...

So far there are over 300 MB of scanned files to be put on CD. I'm nearly done with the second ref book. In the minis, I still have two boxes of magazines to go through, but I'm trying to mix things up a bit to avoid boredom and difficulty level. I'm sure people are wondering what I mean be that, scanning papers can't be hard. It's not hard or problematic to scan sheet by sheet, however, my memory often does dumb things and I can't always recall what pages in the book or magazine I already did. I multitask in between, not always a good idea.

Yahoo has a number of games that I discovered I like to play... Bookworm and other word games as well as Noah's Ark. You pair up animals and get them on the ark before the flood comes.

I used to play Word Yacht on Hoyle until I found out they installed Cydoor whenever I logged in.. so... even though it was nuked.. I still got nailed again.

Woooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooooo!

For those folks that are looking forward to the release of Sims 2, the "Create A Sim" program called Body Shop is now available on EA's official site! You need a minimum of 32 MB RAM on your video card to run this pup.

Good Thought for the Day

It's Mother's Day!
Happy Mother's Day to all celebrating!

Random Thought for Today

Friday, I was the recipient of a floral bouquet featuring pink roses for Mother's Day!

Cool Site for Today

The Encyclopedia of Arda - a tribute to and a celebration of the works of J.R.R. Tolkien. The site is intended to evolve into an illustrated hypertext encyclopedia of Tolkien's realms and peoples. This lies a long way in the future, though; if the regions of Eä are vast beyond the thought of Elves and Men, so too are the works of J.R.R. Tolkien.

Lyrics of the Day

"I have dreamed thee too long,
Never seen thee or touched thee, but known thee with all of my heart,
Half a prayer, half a song,
Thou has always been with me, though we have been always apart."

Bitch-o-gram of the Day

I'm tired...

Miscellanous Things

Nothing of note today.

We now return you to the regularly scheduled rambling LJ entry for the day......
( Read more... )

In general, Monday was a good day. My stack cooker arrived safe and sound, I plan to run it through the dishwasher and then cook in it tomorrow.

Made meatballs in the crockpot for Monday dinner... yum.

I'm listening to a tape of a thunderstorm set to music... It's very calming. Burning incense, also calming.

Hit the libraries for returns and picked up more audiobooks and 2 DVDs.

Paid bills.

Took son to pick up something from the game store in Killeen AKA Book Stan.

Catching up on LJ. Wanted to post a couple replies, but opted not to.

Kevin wants a George Foreman grill. He wants to do the he-man cooking thing on weekends. Works for me! :)

Saturday, we hit ROTK for the second time. It's one of the few films we all wanted to see. I would have suggested Butterfly Effect, which was playing on Fort Hood, if my husband didn't say.. "Hey, let's go see Lord of the Rings again." I noticed little things this time around.
( More Mania of Me. )
