Reading: The Temple and the Stone - Katherine Kurtz and Deborah Turner Harris (still)
Listening: Home improvement shows, yelling kids and Garrison Keillor
Thinking: now he lays him down to sleep, if he should die before I wake...
Drinking: milk, does a body good
Ok-o-meter: 6 1/2, ok
Quote for the day: And that's the news from Lake Wobegon, 
                           where all the women are strong, all the men 
                           are good looking, and all the children are above average.
Weather report: sunny and just the least bit windy

I have Lorelei for the next week and a half. It will be nice having her here.  We watched the tape of _The 10th Kingdom_ I got from Gwen last night.  I got to catch some scenes I didn't catch last time.  I think I will look at the library for the book, if there is one.  It sounds from the ending like there is more to the story.

We had Saint Patrick's dinner last night instead of Friday because Mommy siad we all would have been rushed and stressed from the work week.  She stresses way too much as it is.  It was nice.  The kids all wolfed down their corned beef, though they didn't like the cabbage and were indifferent over the little red potatoes.  I don't like cabbage either but I eat it because it is tradition, and you don't fuck with tradition, not around me you don't. My family has very few set traditions, and I will keep what I have.

I told Deb I'd take Mikie, since she seemed to be getting stressed with him tonight.  She said no, it was ok.  I swear that kid gets dumped on bad sometimes.  We are taking him next weekend instead, since we don't have Kyle and Tabi.  Hope Wayne doesn't end up making a stink about it, though he probably will.

Got test score for my test.  Scored a 6 on the list.  I was hoping for some where in the first 5, but I guess I didn't get my application in soon enough.  When you take the test, if two people score the same the top score will be the one who got their application in sooner.  Well, good enough.  I will still get job offers.
