Rant: Pat Tillman, who gave up an NFL career and a 3.6 million dollar contract to be an Army Ranger, was killed in Afghanistan.
Rave: That there are people like Pat Tillman that have beliefs and ideals greater than money, fame, and the like.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family. And the families of those that have a loved one overseas, in harms way.
God bless.

Rant: my bedroom and laundry floors and walls are all torn up because of a leak in a pipe in the wall. We're going to have weeks of sleeping in the guest room and enduring "mold remediation," drying of floors, fixing of walls and floors, and no use of the washer and dryer. Laundromat, YUCK. Send quarters.
Rave: the hummingbirds are back!!!
Glad you like the snow, Rosemary, but I'm awfully grateful for the greenery, blooms, and those courageous/cantakerous little birdies that buzz their way over thousands of miles and still have energy left to fight over a hummingbird feeder.

1) Woke up and nothing hurt even tho I drank a few glasses of Clos Zin last night.
2) SF weather's expected to be muy bueno for our annual "NFL Draft Weekend trip to Shanghai Kelly's" and the ugly/dangerous/filthy Un Sq area.
3) OO's excellent news.
4)emd's friends who give anything "Cakebread"
5) 26 days 'till NYC
:
1) Close relative passed away last night. A beautiful woman, 93 yrs young.
2) Agree w/ Cassidy on Pat Tillman.
Keeps the "raves-rants" in proper perspective.

Here I am! Eyes only slightly crossed!
RAVE: Baby is a sleeper and, aside from waking every 2.5-3 hours, I got a combined total of 8 hours sleep last night!
RAVE: I only have 6 more pounds to my pre pg weight and a size 5 again...woohoo! I guess all that pregnant running paid off!
RANT: I'm missing my husband...

Rave: Only 31 more days to wake up to the alarm clock!! I'm retiring!!!
Rant: I have to get up with the alarm clock 31 more days before retiring!
(I actually still love my teaching job, but will enjoy retirement MORE as it will give me MORE time for traveling!)

rant: did anyone else see this: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmp...ed_from_buffet
An AP story about a couple on the Atkins diet barred from a buffet restaurant for eating too much meat. Having battled my bulges all my life, I'll usually cut anyone some slack on the overweight issue, but PEOPLE: eating TWELVE servings of beef at one meal is NOT how you lose weight, Atkins or not!!!!!
Rave: OO's good news and anyone else's.

Rave: The rain stopped long enough for me to work in my yard this evening and the lilies-of-the-valley smelled wonderful!
Rant: The oak trees are dropping their green pollen cr*p and I'm going to need a decongestant to sleep tonight.
Rave: I leave for France Thursday!
Rant: I have to wait 6 more days for France!
Cassandra where are you? I'm in central Indiana and still waiting for my hummingbirds.

Thanks Cassandra. I was curious about the h-birds.
Another rave: Though I still don't have any hummingbirds I'm glad I set my feeder out last week. Today I watched a Baltimore Oriole eat from my hummingbird feeder: orange & black and gorgeous. Who knew they liked hummingbird feeders?
