When plugging in a Tivo box, make sure that you’re plugging in a Tivo box and not a DVD player. It’s totally crucial to the whole endeavor. :)

FOX25 Boston – The Simpsons uses landmarks in Chelmsford, Ma.

Chelmsford, Mass, represent!

Pretty cool… Also, Zesty pizza is very yummy.

Talking shop.

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

One of the cool things about having worked at a wildlife rehab center is that I can talk shop with the Orkin guy. The Hanta virus, which rodent traps are more humane, good bees vs. nuisance bees, etc…
I did it in the middle of my lunch, while Devon dry heaved as I told him about it.

Happy Cinco de Mayo!

ME: Baby, which of your guns is best for killing zombies?
DEVON: hm it depends. the rifle is best for killing them from a distance
DEVON: the beretta holds 16 rounds, which is nice, but the .45 has more zombie stopping power
ME: hmm… well i have an axe for close distance stuff, as well as chopping down stairs..
DEVON: er, you do?
ME: but i dunno if i want a long distance gun or a hand gun…
ME: haha.
ME: i’m choosing my top 5 items to have when zombies attack…
ME: so far I have an axe, hardcore – yet sexy – body armor, vodka and a mountain bike.
ME: but i need a gun.
ME:for stopping power.
DEVON: I’d go with a Beretta CX4 Storm, in .45.

So how about you? What are your 5 preferred items to have on hand in case of zombie attack?

Katy Perry – Hot ‘n’ Cold (Cover by Los Colorados)

This is so awesome.

Productive Spring day.

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

I feel like I had a productive and enjoyable spring day. I ordered a bunch of stuff online, that we’ve been desperately needing. Bamboo shades to block the sun in our bedroom in the AM, a new comforter (our current one outdates D & I’s relationship), a big wagon to hall yard junk in addition to Fifi, etc…. I went to the dry cleaners, and did the bi-weekly grocery store trip. I hung out with Fifi on the deck and read a great book as Fifi soaked up the sun’s rays. I planted 4 rows of sugar snap peas in my garden, and I made little hangers for my garden tools in the shed. And I’m currently in the process of making greek-spiced baked shrimp with feta for dinner. Yeah, domestic goddess!

Attention Spammers!

You can not fool me. I know having an e-mail subject with something like “itunes invoice #687″ may fool some people, but I’ve got your number, people. My email address is not associated with the itunes account that I use, so there is no way that I should be receiving anything related to that….
In addition, you might want to change your “handle”. Receiving a “itunes invoice” from a sender called “VIAGRA. Official Site” is a dead give away.
