So, Mortgage is due again, eh? The yahoo check cleared in a timely way.

The Topologist's child was quite hyper
'Til she wore a Moebius diaper.
The mess on the inside
Was thus on the outside
And it was easy for someone to wipe her.

Note to self – set up newtcam2 in the loft on the tower.

We decided to settle with the Condo board re: the assessment. They filed a lien and a foreclosure the same day.. Thought you’re supposed to wait a good span between the two. We’ll see how it goes.

One of the gigs I interviewed for mentioned to me that they read my journal, and have sniffed around my website a bit. (More than one person there has commented that the kitties are cute)

I’ve got to clean up the downstairs office a bit – maybe reposition the monitor, definitely clear assorted paperwork and detritus buildup.

Backward-smearing time domain transients – describes the “pre-echo” on older videotape

Body is extremely weary and allergies are acting up something fierce. I'm a grumpy, tired bear today.

Tonight, BHK and I are going to play some super munchkin, if the timing works out. We still haven’t seen the finale of either Dresden files or Gilmore girls.

I’m hoping for more fireflies tonight. And Orange / Pineapple shaved ice. [edit - no dice on the ice, and I was too sleepy/grumpy to play well or tv with bhk]

Between the fireflies and mosquitoes, I’m rather surprised that I haven’t seen more fat frogs or birds out and about. Chickadees and Blue jays seem to be the most stand-out when I do see ‘em. More leafy coverage now, so I imagine that’s cutting my visible cues, too.

Vending machine guy took out all the expired candy (twix, mostly) and left it atop for anyone who wants some to have. Nobody else wanted 'em, so, stale twix ahoy!

Words recently used that I doubted I’d ever put in conversation – onus, predilection, supercilious

Saw Adam and Kendall necking in front of his Grandpa's house. BHK honked, and they were unapologetic!

Poll question - What’s more important? Freedom or Equality?

Favor freedom, and consequently inclined to be somewhat sanguine about inequalities of outcomes or concerned with equality, primarily as equality of opportunity, not of outcome.

According to UK tabloid The Sun, hit BBC sci-fi program Doctor Who will reportedly end next year after its fourth season. Producer Russell T. Davies has decided to bring the hit sci-fi show to a close — to 'go out at the top' — so he can concentrate on other projects, according to the article. Davies and other senior staff are feeling the strain of the heavy workload imposed by the show, nine months a year of 16-hour days, and plan to resign en-masse in 2008. Davies, a long-time fan of Doctor Who, relaunched the series in 2005, 16 years after the original series was axed."

A little poetry I've been composing for a week now:

I'm a doodiehead. I wet the bed. I love baboons so my butt is red.

That was in my lj client this morning. Hmmm... Was it Newt, or Bhk? Neither are owning up to it.

Dindin at the momsters went pretty well, but at about 8:30, I just totally ran out of energy and we bid the folks adieu. Hit the sack after doing some last minute chores... I hardly remember 'em, as I was a zombie.

---

I want to write something else, but I'm drawing a little bit of a blank. I'm having a wonderful home life lately, and look forward to it continuing for many a moon to come, even if I suffer from a little lj vandalism from cohabitants from time to time. I still have to post some more doodles and piccies. Walkabout or just more outdoor time this weekend!

edit:see comments for Newt piccies

I'm off! until later, dear journal!
