On Friday, or Saturday? I wore the maize on Friday, but I was in blue
Saturday night. I saw the tape of the third period today at Bill's house;
Ramsay was cracking us up. For what it's worth, I was sitting with Brad and
Jen behind the penalty box, so I don't think I got many on screen
opportunities.
The description matches, though.

IHB just about everything I can think of is looking up; I finally
managed to assemble a new file cabinet, two damaged parts and a missing part
later; I'm enjoying a nice new vin du pays that I picked up a few days ago;
a few jobs seem to be competing for my interest; I have good music playing
that I didn't have a few days ago. Nothing earth-shattering, just
overwhelmingly good.

this was during the Saturday game. I also saw someone resembling Brad.
I think the best shot of Ramsay was immediately post-game when he
practically picking up the guy next to him.
IHB I bowled a 171 (career high) tonight in my league.

IHB Dave got me a copy of the Cure's "Show" album. It's wonderful, and
it made me happy during my shift tonight.
IHB our relationship is finally back to the wonderful, smarmy goodness
it was before all the self-esteem nonsense started. Silly boy.

The Exam I'm Not Ready for wasn't ready for me either. It's been rescheduled
for Wednesday. Oh, rapture.

My brother is letting me help him get somebody to give him two million
dollars. (For some consideration, of course.)

Detroit Edison (after I had been calling every week for a month or so) said
to go ahead and put in our trench for underground electric service and they
will install an intermediate pole anywhere we like, as long as it is under
the wire. We will be putting it in conduit so I called Wyandotte Electric
to get prices. Grey PVC electrical conduit comes in 1/2" to 6" and 200A
service goes in 2" (this took a while to determine). What size for
communications cable? Maybe 1/2" but call Comcast to be sure. I talked to
four people at Comcast, one of whom wanted me to call Livonia, another wanted
my customer account number, and the third called back and told me the type
of cable they use. I told her I needed the conduit size, not the cable size.
In the process she was able to remove all three of our addresses from their
mailing list - which MediaOne was unable to do for about five years. ;)
The electrical info is something we have been trying to get since September.
We were hoping to start digging the 2' deep 100' long trench this morning....

Well, if you come up with a good enough idea, do enough research to show
that it is viable, and present that research to the right people, under
the right conditions, you too could get someone to give you a couple
million dollars. (For some consideration, of course.)

As I was talking to Detroit Edison, who said to go ahead and put the electric
pole anywhere we wanted (Jim decided it would go well at the back of the
compost pile) a worker was out there marking where we had to put the pole (at
the back of the compost pile). They might not have wanted to try installing
it in the other corner of the yard under the tree house. So now we can dig.
If the ground ever thaws again.

I am very happy for 3 reasons.
1. I am gainfully employed.
One year ago, I was not, and was miserable. Today, I have almost 700
dollars in the bank (between my Cayman Islands and Swiss accounts), and I am
working 60+ hours a week.
2. I am getting a new place to hang my hat.
For a mere 20 bucks per month more, I am moving to a bigger place in
a better part of Toledo.
3. SNOW!!!
Ok, I know what you're thinking. But we got a paltry 9 inches of snow
all winter, a pathetic total for a city as nice as Toledo. In the last 2 days
we have been blessed with ice snow and generally good weather. I made 200
bucks in the last 2 days. Beats working for a living.
I shall be making an appearance in Ann Arbor this weekend. If anyone wants
to have dinner or lunch gimme a call on my cell phone at 419 450 7961.

I have exciting plans for the summer in spite of not being able to do my first
choice of things.
And yes, for Anna, exciting is being able to get Gordon certified (its an
elementary music teaching method) and living in an on campus coop with no air
conditioning for cheap. :)
I'm also happy because my new bookbag that I ordered over the internet. Its
one of those classic LL Bean ones, and its bright green. And I do mean
_bright_ green.
Goes well with my toe socks. :)

IHB the marinated chicken I froze months ago cooked up great, and
my freezer is getting more and more toward the empty state I want.

Despite a rocky pre-conference start, the Northern Michigan University
baseball team travelled to Flint this weekend to play Kettering University
in a pair of doubleheaders and left with a 3-1 conference record. We had
a team meeting after being swept by the Alaskans where a number of issues
were brought up, and Coach Preseau seems to have taken those concerns into
account.

Does your depression correlate at all with whether the sun is out?

An editor at the Observer (which is looking around for some other delivery
company or method) asked me to send along all the written info that I have
about the newspaper/littering problem in Ann Arbor. He says it is too late
to get the story in the April issue, but the public meeting won't be until
April 15 or so anyway. His attitude is that something will happen if enough
people call their council members. I am about to email 500K or so of zipped
text files which he says he does not mind wading through even in random order
and somewhat redundant.
Would anyone like to continue the News weekly discussion in Spring Agora, with
a discussion of whether it is appropriate to bill property owners for the
removal of newsprint which has been thrown on their properties without their
permission? You might even get quoted in the Observer.
