Gabe found a book that Dan made when he was little. The story is called The Train Crash. The tragedy of the story is overwhelming, with the wrecks, the people running, and the dinosaur showing up at the end, but what a page turner! Truly a great find....

warning

it looks like i made my first bad purchase off of amazon.com. For Dan's birthday I bought him all five seasons of the Sopranos, but the fifth season has yet to arrive in the mail. I decided to investigate yesterday and found that, yes, it had been charged to my account. The next step was contacting the seller, of course I have not received a response, and all the other feedback on this seller is bad. How could I not have seen this earlier? The credit card company says I can dispute it after the estimated date of delivery passes (7/25-8/8), but after the reading comments on this person I am definately not expecting that my dvd set is going to miraculously appear in the mail on the 8th, if ya know what I mean. Lesson of the day?: review the seller ratings. Duh.

IT IS 7:30AM!!!

It seems to be the case with me that on the weekends I can rarely sleep past 8, while on the weekdays it is the worst torture to wake up before then. What the heck is goin' on?!?!?!

ah, wireless sweet wireless!

Wow, birthdays are good. This year was by far the best birthday yet. I have not been feeling well for the last several days, missed a lot of work, and still do not feel well. But I went to the dentist (no cavities!), and got an eyebrow wax and a pedicure at Chikara. I cleaned the car, changed the oil, and went tanning. I had a double nonfat light on the sugar free vanilla latte. I had lunch with my dad, and debra, and came home to presents from dan. Dan gave me Valentino, a pair of red crocs, and a wireless router for my laptop! I am back in business! Hallelujah!
