Wednesday
So today's picture is rather ridiculous, so I'm going to bury it among the others from Kev's birthday party. Happy Birthday Kev. Hope you had as much fun as we all did. I discovered some settings on my camera, and we really enjoyed playing with them. Oh wait. I took...
Kilt Tuesday
It arrived! My kilt arrived. It actually arrived yesterday, but I was still at home, so I finally got a chance to put it on. And it is really comfortable. I love it. Word to the wise though: if you're getting one, order up one size. I ordered a 40, when I'm about a...
Dentist Monday
Oh the crushing inevitability of another week. I went to the dentist this morning for the first time in years. If you want to hear about it, click after the jump. A chunk of what I assumed was my teeth came off in my mouth a few days ago and I got very freaked out...

Tuesday
Man times are lean... tomorrow's dole day. Feels like a long time coming.
Monday
I know I said I'd post a tool review by the end of the week; what I meant by that was this week. I'll get the pictures and give you my appraisal of my new drill, which I had a chance to play with since I got it.
Sunday
Still sitting around with the buddies. Becky might be moving in. Which I think is fantastic news. She's a stilt walker, circus performer and prop maker. She alters her own clothes, and all that sort of stuff. Frank's an animator, Mary plays music, Sin writes, and I...
