I was combing my hair before my shower when I looked in the mirror and saw a big, dark spider up in the corner above the shower stall. Ugh. I don’t mind spiders much, but this one was big, with giant fangs. But it was up too high for me to practically reach it before […]

Drum shopping
August 28th, 2005 by pleia2
We went drum shopping today. Real life shopping for Native American drums is one of those things that is somewhat hard to do because of the difficulty in finding local resellers. There are music stores in the area, but mostly they just have modern instruments. We went to a really nice drum shop in New […]

The Zoo!
August 28th, 2005 by pleia2
Today I finally went to the Philadelphia Zoo. I like zoos. I know a lot of people have issues with them, but I don’t as long as the animals are well taken care of. And it means I can see cute fluffy things I wouldn’t normally be able to see. It’s all about the cute […]

Caligula IS Mahjongg
August 26th, 2005 by pleia2
My brain was feeling toasty (no, not from the beer, it was from the long boring week I had!). So I wanted a mind-numbing project. In order to get in the brain numb mood I decided to play some mahjongg. I play the gnome version of mahjongg (in gnome-games package), because it works nicely. But […]

When we first went to Ortino’s Northside both Michael and I had a good chuckle over the Monty Python Holy Grail Pale Ale from Black Sheep Brewery in North Yorkshire, UK. We didn’t order any though, since we figured it was all about the label and the beer would suck. Tonight I finally broke down […]

Folkfest

According to the 2000 census the town of Schwenksville has a population of about 1000. It’s probably grown in the past few years with the construction boom in this area, there are whole neighborhoods around our house that are shiny and new. But it’s still a small town, I’d certainly never heard of it before […]

August 22nd, 2005 by pleia2
During the first bit of my lunch break I decided to go for a walk because it’s so nice out. While on my walk I decided to drop into the Lansdale thrift store to check out their scifi book section (which has been awful lately, and was today too *sigh*). While thumbing through a book […]

Friends and installing stuff
August 21st, 2005 by pleia2
Friday night we had and over for movie night. Had some pizzas and beers, watched a couple movies. It was a nice relaxing evening. Saturday I spent the morning taking apart hour. I’d finally finished with my extra 80 gig drive, so I wanted to remove it, and while I was at it I figured […]

Aunt Meg’s Visit
August 19th, 2005 by pleia2
I left work yesterday at 4pm. By 4:30 I was pulling up Woodland Ave when my cellphone rang. “Hi, Beth[1]? I’m at your house.” “Oh! I just pulled onto my street, be there in a sec.” Michael came down when I pulled in the driveway (he’d been working upstairs) and greeted my aunt. The first […]
