i plug it in, it should work!

Dear QotD?ers,

I was at home for lunch today. i went into work for the morning, but had a meeting across town in the afternoon. it worked out ok, because I got to have leftovers for lunch. Penne and tuna steak with a lemonysauce and feta cheese. i'm surprised at how much I like feta.

While I was across town, I stopped to visit one of my friends who is a new mom. i got to hold bab Stella and her cuteness has advanced her to the title 'my favorite baby!' She is small, but she has loong fingers.

Before Justin finds out the real answer tomorrow, why has my personal computer stopped recognizing keyboards as a valid input device? Funnest answer wins

the noon meal

Dear QotD?ers,

Yesterday Justin made cupcakes from a Betty Crocker Super Moist box. They are so fluffy and spongey and chocolately it's like heaven. If heaven clouds were made of chocolate cake.
(for those of you on netflix, justin recommends the instant play, 2-part fantasy movie The Color of Magic set in Discworld).

Today's Question of the Day? is:
What did you have for lunch today?

I want to ride my ...

Dear QotD?ers,

I went to the grocery store for a few items for lunch... ON MY BIKE!
Flash in the Tan, or Flash for short

Yeah, I thought of that name all on my own during the uphill ride to the store.
We have like a dozen shrubbery species in our front flower bed. I don't think they look good together. At somepoint this spring Justin and I are going to have to invest in a shrubbery shovel and a hedge trimmer.

Today's Question of the Day? is:
When is the last time you rode a bicycle?

A SHRUBBERY!

Dear QotD?ers,

Today was Justin and my 4-year anniversary! The traditional gift is fruit and flowers. This morning we had fruit for breakfast and I got a rose before dinner.

Thank you for all the congratulations we have recieved. Also, thank you for being part of our married life together!

Tonight we watched The AristoCats, a first for both of us, and then two new episodes of 30 Rock.

I've been saying "twenty-ten" like the majority.

Today's Question of the Day? is:

How many unique kinds of bushes/shrubbery are in the front flowerbed of your domicile?

Love,

It's about how you say it

Dear QotD?ers,

Did everyone get a Christmas card? I have more extra than I thought I should, but everyone was crossed off my list. If you didn't get one, I'll mail one belatedly. It'll still be awesome!
Good news everyone! It's not nearly as cold as it has been. It's still cold though. Cold enough for 2 pairs of socks.

Today's Question of the Day? is:
When talking, how do you say 2010?

Happy New Year! 9/9

Dear QotD?ers,

let's catch up on a few things: Anne's brithday was this weekend! My 5 year work-a-versary was Monday! Cuñao and Sabrina are indeed engaged! Three cheers!

I think, in 2010: the superbowl will continue to have sub-par commercials; the winter olympics will expose some dark hidden secrets about Canadians, I will win So You Think You Can Dance

Today's Question of the Day? is:
What are some things you don't want to happen in 2010?

Happy New Year! 8/9

Dear QotD?ers,

Yesterday, it was commented that I looked silly riding a bicycle while wearing cowboy boots. Well, Anne, to my knowlege, I've never owned cowboy boots. The boots that I was wearing Sunday were my awesomesauce steampunk boots. Please check them out here:

Oh yes, that is real fake wooly lining for a more authentic look. ;] These boots are fun!

And here are my 2010 resolutions/goals:

· Get together with old friends at least once a month
· Go to bed before 11pm on schoolnights, once accomplished for a month, knock it down by 8 minutes until at 10:15
· Exercise on the weekly, either brisk walking or BIKE RIDING!! Maybe join a class at the Y
· Finish home-izing the house (decorations, painting, hanging up pictures)
· Make QotD? Even better
· Keep up with Amanda’s 365 picture blog adventure.

Today's Question of the Day? is:

What sort of crazy things do you think will happen in 2010? any crazy predictions? (again, wacky answers encouraged)

Love,
The Asker
