Thursdays


Today was a slow, catch-up day. We only went out for lunch and the basketball game. John's feeling better today. He paced himself better on his home exercises.

I've seen this contest before, but these are new results from the Washington Post contest where the Post asked readers to supply new definitions of words beginning from A to H. Bill Dahn posted these selections on his blog this morning. I've laughed about them all day.

Airstrip - pretending to take your clothes off.

Algebra - Lingerie worn by mermaids.

Bandicoots - The Rolling Stones.

Bumbling - Butt cheeks piercings.

Eggs Benedict - The Pope's edict on fertility treatments.

Farenheit - Moderately tall.

My personal favorite is Eggs Benedict - or maybe Bumbling....

Our UTC Lady Mocs won tonight, beating Western Carolina 72-66, to win the Southern Conference, get the #1 seed in the tournament starting next week in Charleston, and continue having the longest winning streak in NCAA women's basketball. Are we bragging??? You bet!

Followup: I called NetFlix this morning about the bad DVD of La Vie en Rose. They were very nice, a replacement copy has already been mailed, and should arrive tomorrow. Maybe we'll get it watched over the weekend.

Followup: Vicki's mom has been admitted to a skilled care facility. She'll be there for at least the 20 days that Medicare will pay for. And that gives the family some breathing room to decide what comes next.

Today's photograph is of a late spring snow above Creede, CO. I hope to have some of our spring blooming tomorrow night.
