Scotto's Wall Scrawls

Back to Work! Didn't kill the beard for now, but it's still pretty close to the face. Not quite the "wild man from borneo"

I think I bit my lip while sleeping the other night - probably the ear thing again. Pain is mostly gone now, just a little irritant here and again.

Looks like snow outside - very gray day.



My jaw still looks a little out of whack and swollen... but it's a lot better than before.

After work, BHK and I had Chinese food with In-laws, and discussed birthday plans for me - BHK has an idea for us to go to Puxatawney, PA for Groundhog's day -

a few links for me to peruse before the trip - http://www.punxsutawney.com/calendar/ and http://www.groundhog.org

It'll be the 123rd anniversary of the event - and my first time there, though I've wanted to go for some time.

Item of note - Phil's Birthday Celebration, Punxsutawney Community Center, Peterson Room, Come and celebrate your February 2^nd birthday Phil's way. Cake and punch served. Free gift with proof of birth date.

Zonking out early .. poor BHK has had too much holiday excitement, I tihnk!

I got to skip shots today! BHK and I pretty much just took it easy. We watched a good bit of TV - The first and second "Librarian" movies - cute for made for TNT flicks. We still have the third on the recorder. I also watched an episode of Freakylinks - forgot how inspired by Blair Witch the show was. I may or may not watch the remaining episodes, depending on how much shaky-cam film style I can take.

Ear ache is really rough today, but the compresses improve matters a *lot*.

Pictures are of a model house burning down at the local motorcylce store's train display (the same one with the squirrels) - not to woory - this model is designed to look like it's burning down, complete with smoke and lights.

453 entries in 2008. (417 in '07,618 in '06, 975 in '05, 716 in '04)

At this rate, I'll break 10,000 entries by this time next year... of course, some entries are beefier than others.. I've been cheating a bit with the picture posts - still haven't done a breakdown of my holiday loot yet!

But for now, a recap of recent history -

BHK took Amy to Urgent care last night, as her dog bite was getting more infected - worried about swelling and red marks. While they were at the doc's, Shaun and I played Easter Island (I won!), and watched Bones on TV with my in-laws. The girls got back about 45 minutes later, and Amy's wound was freshly cleaned and re-wrapped with gauze.

After the ball dropped, the in-laws headed off, and the rest of us played witch trial into the wee hours. (BHK took that one, but Amy wasn't far behind. I really thought I would win! d'oh!)

Amy, Shaun W, BHK, the in-laws and I rose at about 10am, (after staying up until 3ish) and headed off to Gina's Cantina for a nibble on some tasty brunch. No sign of Tyson or Gina, but the food was tasty and abundant, as usual.

BHK napped a bit and then did some work while Amy & I play Lego star wars / Mario Land 8 on the wii for about 4 hours. I feel pretty guilty about that - I wish we had another controller, or could have played something amongst the three of us.

Amy grew concerned about her issue - BHK went out to get some fresh bandages for her, and if she doesn't feel significantly better by tomorrow morning, she'll probably head home.

My earache also started kicking up - could not eat dinner tonight as it hurt to chew. Going to the doc tomorrow, so my appointment timing is good.
