IHB Brokeback Mountain was a great movie and I finished the day with the
Seahawks winning the division championship and then reading to my kids.

IHB- I actually get to have lunch with my husband today! Since school
started we haven't been able to have lunch together, but today his lab
instructor had to go home to deal with a family emergency and he was
able to leave. So while I hope everything turns out okay for the
instructor, I'm very glad to spend some time with my husband.

 Was it hard finding a cat that matched your couch?

re resp:199 Aww! Eliot looks like a short-haired Leopolde- so therefore
totally cute. :)

Re #205: I think the background is the carpet, not the couch.  But
matching was not among the adoption criteria.

It was on December 1st that we had to put our Sidney down.  He
was very sick and had stopped eating.  He was also one of the
most affectionate cats I'd ever met.  John had chosen him.  John
tends to filter for personality.  I filter for looks.  He picks
cool cats.  I pick psycho cats.

So, when it was time to visit the Humane Society, it was agreed John
would make the decision, no matter what little beauty I found
growling in the dark recesses of the cage.  And so Eliot was chosen.

It's too bad the photo doesn't come with a sound clip.  He has
quite the voice and vocabulary.  

Thanks for the nice comments.

eliot looks like he is very intelligent, and thus is going to be quite 
the trouble maker!

Mittens was having trouble last month, her nerves are shot, and I 
wonder if she is really missing me.  She was hiding in our bedroom, 
losing weight, and not eating.  Twila called the vet and he told her to 
start trying with another food.  We also changed the program where she 
could roam the house at night when we locked mughi in his room.  Gave 
the room to her instead and keep mughi out.  She is getting better.

Also, mughi's brother has moved back into the house, and he and mughi 
are apparently getting along after a short bout of "hey!  this is my 
house!"

I guess twila and friends have re-arranged the house in my abscence.  I 
am happy I should be home on the 4th.

IHB I feel like today was a very productive day of work for me and now I'm
winding the day down with a nice cup of coffee and a sunny bay outside my
office window.

I am happy that the local produce store (at Kerrytown in Ann Arbor) is still
selling oranges (20 cents), avocados (50 cents), pineapples ($3), bananas (40
cents/lb), carrots ($2 for 5 lb) and cabbages (70 cts/lb) at just above cost.
The owner at the cash register said they are starting a fad for avocados in
Ann Arbor.  I wonder if they are trying to be sure people living near town
get enough vitamins.  Avocados have essential oils, bananas B6, oranges and
pineapples and cabbages C, carrots A. Avocados might also have B6.
I promised the owner to tell all my friends.  Half the avocados appear to have
been picked ripe.  Kroger has avocados on sale for $1.25 and bananas on sale
for 50 cents/lb.

Awesome, Sindi.  Thanks for the info!

IHB it looks the like th Chinese History class is a go.  I spoke with
the chair of the department today, and I'm going to start working on the
preliminary outline, course description, etc., between now and the
second week of February.  I have until mid-March to put the course
together to go before the curriculum committee.  If it's approved, I
should be teaching this course this coming fall or winter.  Apparently
both the chair and the dean are really interested in offering this
course, and if all goes well, will be heavily promoting it among WCC's
students.  I was also told to not be surprised if faculty attended the
class.  Depending on the number of people choosing the class, they could
offer more than on section.  WOOT!
