I'm ready for my
close-up now, Mr. DeMille



This photo and more in my Yahoo album.

There hasn't been a lot of posts lately, and there's a reason for that. I just don't have a lot to write about. School's been school, and nothing new and exciting has happened.

Kirin beer, I guess. I'd actually prefer a lifetime supply of IBC rootbeer.

Something Amiss



Everyone, meet Chico the budgerigar (aka "parakeet"), the new member of our family. He's still pretty young, 3-4 mo., I think, and not tame enough to step up, but we'll be working on that.

... and the Geekification continues


Phillip met up with me in Stormwind to hand me a mechanical squirrel he'd made, and then proceeded to take me to a show (an upper level quest). If that don't say love, I dunno what does.

Slightly appropriate, taking into consideration that tomorrow is a day which revolves around another rodent.
