I really really really hate birthdays! Just a reminder that you've been around another year, and that your time is shorter by 365 days (or so). :( I'm cranky like that.

I was hoping to have something miraculous to say today, but I really don't. Work has been trying...trying to get on my nerves! ;) I'm really busy, and my boss keeps coming up with new things for me to do. My co-worker tells me he's got another project that I am "volunteered" for, that he wasn't said anything to me about. Not like I didn't already ask if this project was going to require anything from me, and was told no. I love collaborating with other faculty members...although, it's not realyl collaborating, since I end up doing most of the work... :(

Song of the day: You know...I've had this one song stuck in my head all day...but I don't know what it is...and I can't find it from looking around on line. New song... Faster Pussycat - "Nonstop to Nowhere"

I'm on the lame train
I got a first class ticket on the nonstop to nowhere
Where it takes me I don't know
I guess the tracks you make are your own
It's like a chain gang going I know the exit
But my problems seem to follow me
Wherever I go
Nonstop to nowhere

That's 80's hair bands at their worst! ;)

Alternate song of the day: Skid Row - "Get the F%^k Out" heh. ;)

Sorry I missed your birthday on the site homepage, Aaron. Something must have gone very wrong with that code. :-( But you have yourself a happy one, and I hope to see you online this weekend.

I really really really hate birthdays! Just a reminder that you've been around another year...

And I knew that. Which is why I didn't play my usual role in starting a birthday discussion for you! ;-[)

Actually, I kind of quit that habit once I'd been here for a few of the same birthdays... ;-p But there's always the chance to resurrect a birthday discussion -- and now, there's one for you, too... >;-)

28-IX-2006 or AGRONOMY AND SOILS CLUB BIG PEANUT SALE!!!

Latest piece of happy University of Florida related e-mail that came through. I mean, it's good that they keep us informed, but I'm not driving all the way up to Gainesville for peanuts...even if they are big peanuts! Go »

Addendum

Yeah, I know. I didn't forget. Go »

2-VII-2008 or Quick Hits

1) At the bottom of my Dashboard, it says: You are not currently playing a concert with Amy Austin. Yea. And I ain't gonna! Go »

27-X-2009 or Linking For Great Justice!

This should be the link to Iceland pictures. If this doesn't work, I'll have to send the link through e-mail, which would involve getting e-mail addresses for anyone who wanted to see pictures. I think the pictures are not worth the anxiety of knowing I have your e-mail address, but we shall see... Go »

24-IV-2008 or Fallen Angel

I have a post to write, but I'm not sure I can get to it in its entirety before the end of work, so I might just be holding this space for a while. Think of it as an announcement that something is coming later tonight (after kickball). It actually, in some ways, involves kickball. Go »

17-VII-2007 or To See Or Not To See...(SPOILERS?)

I have two revelations to make, one of which is truly momentous and possibly a sign of the Apocalypse, the other is just me being stupid, essentially. I'll deal with the stupid one first, just so that the second will be even more earth-shattering! And I know that most of you will be disappointed by the second revelation, after I've hyped it up so much, but trust me, to me if to no one else, this truly is an amazing turn of events. Go »
