outside!!

so, taking advantage of the awesome weather, an outside excursion (to the front step) was the highpoint of today.

a pictoral synopsis of the outing:

tallypants and cat of the year

on a skew

the sarge, philosophical

me and my kitty

long awaited:

we're all still alive: proof

p.s. real post later!

knowledge manager:

things that have been learned within the past 4 days:

• as shitty as things may seem sometimes, i haven't lost two siblings in 3 days like my uncle-by-marriage has this past week. let's say it all together, people: perspective. somehow the looming projects just don't seem all THAT important.
• new brunswick is slow at getting back to peeps: nail-biting extravaganza.
• first year undergraduates cannot tell APA from a hole in the ground.
• the mic mac tavern is delightful.
• silver jeans are not just for the 1990s.
• and last but not least: robaxicent is a lovely drug.

pictures of the sarge soon; hold yer horses!

addendum:

happy (a few days ago) birthday, jennifer!
march 05, 1981 was perhaps the most wonderful day in the history of the known universe!

has the scarring dissipated? ;)

ooh.. oooohh.. .

happy birthday jana!

hurumph.

i spilled peppermint tea all over my ass.
how do these things happen???

p.s. i also left my lunch either at home or in j.'s truck. i even made a sandwich. i'm sorely disappointed in myself.

database update 2.0

so.. you know.. good use of my time, no?

let's open this up a little: what situational hilarity/cuteness would you like to see sgt. martin riggs engaged in for future photographic genius?

we are completely at your whim.

i really am alive.. i swear!

i know, i know.. it's been an age and a half. forgive me? i'm cute... you'll forgive me. people always forgive me ;)

ok.. what's new? been sick. not fun. had an interview for a ya/adult librarian position in new brunswick. would _love_ to get that job! have no idea when they'll get back with a yea or nay, but when i know, you'll know. and you can either celebrate or console as necessary :) um... other than that, nothing ever really changes. it's definitely the super busiest time of the year.. only one month left! gotta get a whole lot of stuff packed into these 4 or 5 tiny weeks.. eep! stress = beginning to become obvious. ummmmm... what else?? no wardrobe malfunctions, although getting to the conference yesterday almost resulted in a vehicular malfunction. but all was well and my function+F5 skills were badass.

so yeah.. boring existence, etc.
