Dynomite
Pretty impressive that this ONE guy did the WHOLE thing a Capella! It’s REALLY good at 2:00 in…and then at 3:20 he shows how he made it. Hat tip to Leanne H. for showing me this one that tells a little about Chanukkah (and that led to a whole group of similar parodies). Thanks, Leanne!

DFWeek
Our week in DFW was full of fun (well, for one of us, at least.) Sunday-drive up. We got a late start, but got there just fine. The hotel next to E’s class building was really nice. The only thing we missed was a mini-fridge. Monday-While E had his first day of class, complete with […]

How Do You Know?
OK, seriously, how do good friends know just what you need and just when you need it? JG, LH, J&B, and even L (whom I’m certain does not read our blog) have all been completely and totally there for me today while I’m in that frustrated panic to get everything ready for my first year […]

Wine for Whine
B and I have a new “thing” that I hope will become a whole/real tradition (we’ve already met the Aggie definition of a tradition: it’s happened twice!). Last night, we had a Wine for Whine session where we each had wine while we whined about the crap that is part of our lives right now. […]

Valvet Acclimates
Valvet is acclimating nicely. Yay for our reptile family! She is the “beta” member of our turtle family, which Turtleor has made clear with the flapping of her front paws/claws (Patty R., help me out here! What are turtle’s feet called? fins? webs?). Early on, Valvet seems to be the smarter/faster turtle. Like most “second” […]
