So Christine and I went to see "Where the Wild things are" and one of the previews was that Michael Jackson concert. She says "This is kinda ironic..."
During the preview, one of the people being interviewed was like "There ...was a depth to Michael that no one knew" and I chimed in almost immediately with "Yeah...six feet." Much laughter ensued.

What the fuck is wrong with people?

I bought the camera...
It's a $400 camera...I won it for $112.50 shipped.
I know...I should save money, but I need SOMETHING to do during Winter...so taking pics it is.

So I'm torn...

Do I want to get my new camera...
or a massive female ball python that will give me lots of babies when bred to my cinnamon male.

Choices.

One of my best friends leaves Friday. Him and his girl are moving to Colorado.
I'm happy for him because he loves it out there, but it sucks. I've known him for like...11 years....

So I had been wondering why my gas mileage in the Outback has sucked lately...
I put fuel injector cleaner in it...and got a slight boost, but not much.
So I checked my tire pressure today. They should be 32-34 PSI...3 were around 20 PSI, and one was at like...18 PSI.
So I took care of that. That should fix my mileage.

Not much else...

So I was told this weekend that I pretty much can have whatever I want of my grandfather's tools because he doesn't use them anymore, so...I am going to go through them all.
This weekend I was given a double headed axe, some sharpening stones for axes and machetes, 2 rope bundles, a pulley and some splitting wedges.
Woot.

I'll hit the workshop next and...

Stoked!
A few years back I picked up an interesting looking female ball python at Petco.
I sold it to my brother's friend because I really needed the money. Didn't want to though...I wanted to breed it.
Well, he's leaving for Afghanistan, which sucks...but he's giving me the snake back.
Awesome.
So I will get to breed her this season (hopefully)...which is AWESOME.

It snowed...

When guests personally thank me for going out of my way to make them comfortable...like getting them coffee before the breakfast is open...things like that...

God dammit...

So I'll let you in on how much of a bitch my boss is...

I requested a small recycling bin in the back office for soda cans and bottles, because we go through quite a few here and my environmental science class is really make me think A LOT about our impact on the planet...

Well, she said no. Her excuse.
"It attracts ants and...

So I made a new toy, and I want to play with it this weekend if I can.

Basically, you take a slingshot...a regular old folding wrist rocket, and you zip-tie a whisker biscuit into it.
(It's an arrow rest for a compound bow)
You pull the knock from the arrows and glue a golf tee in place.
You can now fire arrows from a...

Love the new car. Hauled 392 lbs of brass and copper to Waterbury today without giving me any shit.
Easiest $100 I've made in a while.
