***Glowing Underwear - The Wait is Over!
I read about some glow-in-the-dark underwear just now. Well, glow-in-the-dark thongs, to be specific. But, really, it’s just those skinny parts of the thong that glow. So big whoop. I was thinking “Whoa, how handy to have underwear you can locate in the dark! An energy saver, to be [...]

So here it is … the picture of Clay Aiken and the students from Lincoln who sang for his performance. This picture was taken by Anne-Marie Katemopoulos, the vocal teacher at Lincoln.

***11:30 PM - Tonight
Jameson sang in a choir that backed up Clay Aiken. That’s sort of cool, you know? What would have been even more cool would have been if I could have taken the gig, but I had opera tonight so I had to turn it down. (I was asked to play a while [...]

***Yesterday
we managed to seat 15 in our house! It was great fun to see everyone (we hadn’t seen Jan’s brother and his wife since a trip to Tahoe back when Brandon was, I think, in middle school). Most everyone brought their additions to the meal, and we had so much food I’m sure we could [...]

***2:40 PM - Update
I survived the dentist but, as always, I was hassled about flossing (I DO floss, but not every day) and my teeth sure hurt as the technician (or whatever she’s called) scraped and scraped. I sure don’t like going there.
Now I have a headache.
But …
Shopping is done.
I think.
And my student just wrote [...]

***11:10 AM - Trying
Okay. I’m sitting here looking at my messy house. I got up once and cleaned up a little bit in the laundry and living rooms. I also washed the pot in the sink and put that away. But boy, oh boy, is it difficult to convince myself to do more. I’m trying [...]

***9:11 PM - Clarification
I just remembered that I do have a couple of readers who aren’t related to me: Jessica is my niece (my sister’s daughter). She is sweet and wonderful and all that great stuff!
Just so you know.
***6:31 PM - Congratulations!
To Jessica and Raj; this family has an engagement! Brandon, Jameson and I just [...]

***1:20 PM - Finally!
A reason that guys should put the toilet seat down that may convince some of them.

The book “The Secret Life of Germs: Observations and Lessons from a Microbe Hunter” by Dr. Philip M. Tierno Jr. (Pocket Books, 2001) recommends closing the toilet seat before flushing, noting that, “flushing the toilet can [...]

***3:05 PM - Last Night
we saw the production “Mousical” at LIncoln High. Jameson was great! It was so much fun.
Today was a bit of a “day” already … woke up to get Jameson to school for the pancake breakfast, then taught student #1 at 8:45. Dan and I drove to the pancake breakfast and [...]
