Here's a Story

Why does Mr. Brady park the car out front when he gets home from work when they have a garage and driveway in the back of the house?

Who takes care of Tiger when they go to Hawaii?
And why would Mike's boss pay for Alice to go with them?

They went to Pearl Harbor. It's cool to see on tv a place where I have been. If you ever go to Hawaii, Pearl Harbor is an absolute must. It can be sad and depressing but I left feeling proud to be an American and proud to have visited. Michelle wasn't too thrilled when we walked up to the wall of names and like a 5 year old kid I yelled, and yes, I mean yelled..."Oh My God, Michelle, look, there is a (insert my last name) on the list of names, that freaks me out." She had to hush me like she was my parent. I got lost in the moment and seeing your last name on a memorial wall makes it feel that much more personal and real.

Back to the Bradys:
I sure don't miss the fashion from that time. Yikes!!!

If Alice really is like family, why does she call them Mr. and Mrs. Brady?

How old was Alice supposed to be?

I love the Brady Bunch.

Off for President's Day

We may go into the city today. It depends on how cold it is and what time Michelle gets up. Otherwise it may be a day of housework. Blah. Enjoy your day off if you have it off today and if not, well, enjoy your work day.

Glow says hello

Poor Glowie. She hasn't had a computer at work since last week. She's hoping to have it back up and running tomorrow. I miss Glowie.

Allow me to brag for a moment

My brother just called me to tell me that finally, at the age of 35, everything he has been working for is coming true.
He is a biochemist and is currently working under a grant program at Harvard. The little brain has a BA from UC Davis and a PhD from Stanford. He then went to work for UCSF and then at Harvard.
Well, he applied to be an assistant professor at Villa Nova in Philadelphia and he just got the call that he has been offered the job. So he gets to be an assistant for a couple of years and then he is on his way to being a full time professor.
*big proud smile for my brother*

Okay, carry on.

Update

My back is starting to feel better. Still hurts but I was able to sleep through the night. I'm starting to think that maybe it is kidney stones because I now have a travelling pain (not a sharp pain) through my abdomen. But the pain in my back is slowly getting better.

*valentine's smooches to everyone*

I'm in massive amounts of pain.

I need a painkiller or muscle relaxer of the highest power right now.
We had Michelle's nerd herd here last night for poker. I walked away ahead by $35. Woo Hoo.
Anyhow, towards the end of the night my lower back was aching A LOT. But I figured it was just from sitting at a card table in those card table chairs all night and as soon as I stretched it would stop hurting. Nope. We went to bed around 1:30 and I couldn't get comfortable. I stretched out, that hurt, I went on my right side, that hurt, I went on my left side, that hurt, I even layed on my stomach and that hurt the worst. Finally around 3:30am I got out of bed and took an 800 Motrin. Those usually knock out any pain for me. Nope.
It hurts to lay down, it hurts to stand up, it hurts to sit back. The only time it doesn't hurt is when I am sitting up and leaning forward a little bit. This is not conducive to resting or relaxing or sleeping.
This pain is all around my mid section except in my stomach area. That doesn't hurt. I hate hate hate going to the hospital but if this pain doesn't subside I may have Michelle take me. I can't ever remember having these kinds of back pains before. I shouldn't take another 800 Motrin yet for at least another 3 hours but I may take one anyhow. I think the first one helped a tiny bit. OWWWWWIE. *pout*

Do your thing bloggers

I've been in a great mood for the past few days. For those who don't really know me that well, I mean really know me, that is a big thing. My great moods are far and few between. I have good moods but not great moods. Well, this morning I woke up and my boobs were sore and I had a bit of a headache and i was feeling a bit cranky. PMS!!! Why does it have to come in the middle of an up-spell. Hardly seems fair. I was all set for a bitter and cranky day until Glowie ruined that with her niceness and shout outs and playful mood. Then I was all happy again. Damn her. *grin*
So keep me up people. Tell me something funny. Give me a funny story or an embarrassing story about yourself or something that will keep me giggling for at least a couple of more days.
Please?

What do you collect?

I'm interested in knowing what ya'll collect. Between me and Michelle we collect way too much shit. I keep saying that we should sell all of our stuff and buy a huge house. She says that we would have a huge house and nothing in it so there's no point.
What is in my house that I collect:
Shot glasses
mini alcohol bottles
CDs
DVDs
Movie/TV/Musis stuff: records, autographs, posters, magazines,pictures,toys, misc stuff
49er anything
Kitchen stuff: I have to have all the gadgets even if they aren't needed
luggage/backpacks/bags
shoes ( I have enough pairs that it qualifies as a collection)

So what's on your list?
