So many things to write about

But I just don't have the time this morning. I've got to get to my cousin's shower in a little bit, but I can post some quick observations. Maybe I'll be able to post some more tonight. We'll see. This is going to be one heck of a week, with something after work every night, and then driving down to Florida Wednesday night. Ugh, welcome back home!

Anyway, so this morning's observations are about what things are so wonderful about getting home.

my husband
the dog and cats
the smell of home
sleeping in my own bed
country music
showering and getting ready in my own bathroom.

This last one surprises me more than the others, actually.

procrastination

I'm meant to be studying, so what am I doing? Surfing IMDB and AllMusic for fun stuff. And look what I've found?

Can't wait to see this one: Daniel Craig and Ewan McGregor in a movie about an offer God makes to the Devil for a last chance at redemption. It's only in pre-production, so I hope that both actors stay attached to the project. Based on a novel.

A few more pictures

With captions on many, this time around. I even updated some of the older pics with captions, so you know what you're looking at.

We probably just need to rid the planet of humans, then

Here's an interesting article on climate change myths. I was surprised by almost all of these. They're similar to the argued theory that recycling is actually worse for the environment because of the amount of energy it requires.

And it's not from some right-wing "nutter," as they say over here, it's someone who completely buys into this whole thing.

Here's the one I found most interesting:
"Trees, regarded as shields against global warming because they absorb carbon, were found by German scientists to be major producers of methane, a much more harmful greenhouse gas."

Hat Tip: Boortz, of all places. I think he probably posted it because it's contrarian, but it doesn't seem to go along with his usual climate change vitriol.

More Pictures

Someone mentioned that I'm not in any of the pictures I posted. Well, here are some more, and I think there may be two of me in this bunch. Just for proof that I really am here.
