What I've been doing over the past couple of days:
- learning just enough about Word templates to want to learn more
- finding out that my crazy daughter puts vodka in her gazpacho
- making banana bread and brownies (sorry, no vodka, no "funny" brownies)
- learning that my partner, S, is capable of taking on BIG landscaping projects
- learning that 28 yards of soil is a LOT of soil
- recalling that my dad, the soil physicist, always called soil "SOIL," not "dirt"
- discovering that raking a big berm of soil is sort of like frosting a cake (smooth, smoother, SMOOTHEST)
- finding out how many muscles in my abdominal core are still way out of shape
- re-discovering that S is a generous soul -- she bought me a Music of the Spheres windchime (!) -- exotic Balinese tuning
- realizing that eating an ice cream cone WITH my honey WHILE riding in the truck with the windows down is a superlative Saturday afternoon experience
- finding out how to do text messaging on my phone (thanx 2 Yosh)
- enjoying getting clean after getting really dirty (soiled?)
- watching the MSU Spartans get their cramped-up tails beat by the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. Get those poor guys hydrated, for crying out loud!
- thoroughly and totally enjoying the movie "Garden State" starring Zach Braff and Natalie Portman. Three thumbs up!
- Learning that Natalie Portman has a beautiful and evocative face -- I would compare her transcendent beauty to that of Audrey Hepburn (horrify Josh!). Those Star Wars films made her look like a freak, in retrospect.
- Finding out that Zach Braff even has a Garden State blog. How different is that?
- re-discovering that a lazy Sunday morning on the computer is a great way to celebrate Labor Day!
I hope you like my dots (no bullets here; bullets are for guns; guns are for hunters and soldiers*).
