Still Peeved About Pluto...

I am still peeved about Pluto being downgraded from a full fledged planet to dwarf planet and I am glad others are too...I feel the need to stew a while about this...

I also feel the need to tell you what song I am listeningg too right now...I hope it will float around in your heads...

Thomas Dolby, 1982, "She Blinded Me With Science!" Love it! They just do not write them like that anymore do they?

Pluto Will Always Be A Planet To Me….

I have some issues to discuss with you astronomers…seriously…after all this time you decide now that Pluto is not a planet? I do realize that if you went with the old criteria to rate a planet that the total number of planets in our solar system would go up to 200 but come on….cutting Pluto out entirely? Downgrading Pluto to a Dwarf Planet?

Seriously as of August 24 2006 Pluto is no longer a full fledged planet thus reducing the number of planets in our solar system to eight. Well that is just not fair…how would you feel if you got downgraded from “Astronomer” to “35 year old geeky virgin who lives in his parents’ basement and spends his time alone in the woods at night with a telescope”? Huh? How does that feel? Wait...that is what an astronomer is! Take that!

Cute Overload!

I can not remember where I got the information
on these sea loins, but I love the photo!

Greenbrier Ghost

I was cruising around my favorite site Wikipedia and came across this.....

"The Greenbrier Ghost is the name popularly given to the ghost of a young woman in Greenbrier County, West Virginia who was murdered in 1897. The events surrounding the haunting have led to it becoming the only instance in American legal history in which the testimony of a ghost was accepted at a murder trial."

That is so bizarre! Check it out! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenbrier_Ghost

Today is Monday and I can prove it....

There is nothing like a beautiful summer day…and that day is today…..it is going to be 28 degrees and there is not a cloud in the sky. I decide that because it is going to be such a nice summer day, that I will wear my nice white t-shirt and my fancy black beaded skirt. It’s Monday and I’ll dress up and that will make Monday feel less crappy. I will even head upstairs and actually see the other humans that I work with/for…I will make a good impression today, you know, clean myself up a bit for a change. Yeah, that sounds great…

Or Does It?....

Nothing like going to the effort to look nice, maybe impress coworkers, only to then spill hot tea down your front …tea…on a white t-shirt…hot…not even lunch break yet….have not even made it upstairs…oh no, do I have to wear my grotty old work out t-shirt the rest of the day?

Or Do I?…

There is also nothing like having a washer and dryer only 10 feet away from your desk….and washing your clothes while you work…

Edgewater.....

My apologies to the 4.5 people who regularly read my blog, Blarg and I have been away on a luxury camping vacation in Radium, BC for the last week and have not posted. We had a fantastic vacation and would like to thank the Resse-Perschon family for inviting us along! We had a wonderful time! The weather was prefect and at times it was hotter then hindu but we managed to keep cool by splashing around the mountain stream that runs thru the campground. This trip was jam packed with fun including multiple trips to the hot springs, multiple trips to Edgewater with the eventual writing of their new town anthem, white water rafting and golfing (have never done either), rhubarb gelato (so yummy!) and lots of good food and drink by the campfire!! I will eventually put up a few pictures from the trip as per Paulini’s request.

That’s it for now!
