...

So many things to say... so many pictures to share... but it's late. It's really, really late (especially for someone who dreams about going to sleep at 9). So I'll leave you with this -



Happy happy love day everyone.
Love, Bruce

(get why his name is 'bruce'?)
and no, I did not make him.
Tess did.
she's pretty much amazing.

It's That Time Again...

the mascot of the party - 3 years running

Two years ago I decided that I would actively not hate Valentine's Day (I had always been pretty indifferent). What's the point of hating it? Just because I have no reason to really celebrate it... (:

So I started my annual 'We Don't Hate Valentine's Day' party. This year's party is my 3rd annual. I have fun every year. It's a good excuse to spend time with other single ladies, make sugar cookies, and listen to good music and/or watch a romantic movie.

So if you're a single lady, have no plans for tonight, and know where I live. Come on over and make sugar cookies with us. (:

And to everyone - Happy Love Day!

Years Ago...


I got this as a prize when I answered a question right while watching a frisbee dog show at the Clark County fair. It's a big poster separating the different types of dog breeds. I don't see Max on there...

I Seriously Love This City

and here are just a few of the reasons:











Oh, sidenote - I'm now monitoring my comments because some lame-o keeps spamming me. Thanks a lot kevin21. If someone knows of a way I can just block him, that would be wonderful to know.

I Am Now Slightly Obsessed

A co-worker told me about this webcam.

It centers on two bald eagles. It pans around to show them in their nest or on nearby branches. Sometimes (like right this moment) they can't even be seen because they flew off somewhere. I still watch and listen. I have it on one of my screens at work while I work on the other screen. Even when they're not there the sounds of the wind and other birds and occasional traffic is soothing. I think I'm kind of a junkie now.

screenshots from my morning viewing



If I understand right, they've been doing this for a number of years. If you keep watching, you'll get to see the eggs and the eaglets as they hatch. I'm pretty excited about that.

(If you click on the big play button in the center sometimes it will take you to the website and sometimes it will play on here... If you click on the small one on the bottom left, it plays right here.)

Sitting This One Out

I didn't do today's challenge. Maybe I should have tried to dress up my standard black coat. But I didn't.

Oh well.

I might try something for tomorrow's open to interpretation.

But maybe not...

We'll see.
