Weather - the most boring conversational topic?!?
by Denise Sawicki on April 30, 2008
Well, perhaps not if you live in ND, I dunno. There's snow on the ground *and* dandelions in the lawn right now. That's a first, at least in my memory. But you don't really notice these things so much until you have to take care of them yourself, I guess. There's rumors of another snowstorm coming this weekend, which is completely nuts. I thought the last 3 snowstorms were too much, particularly the one this past weekend. Oh I know I was just saying how annoying it is when the weather's good enough for people other than me to be outside. I guess I change my mind a lot. :P I suppose all this cold and snow is going to be explained in some twisted way by global "warming"... :-)
In other news I'm obsessed with Viva Pinata. Darrell read somewhere that it's "very, very easy" to get all 1000 achievement points on that game. I don't know what that person who said that was smoking. Perhaps I'm just stupid but it's a hard game. It would be impossible if you didn't read online help. I am a bit too impatient to avoid the online help entirely. Man there are some crazy things you need to do if you want to keep all the different kinds of mean pinatas from attacking your nice pinatas. I know I am spelling pinata wrong, thank you spell checker. Well I sure hope I wasn't meant to be smart enough to figure out all that stuff on my own. Even with online help there's still a lot of difficulties, and a lot of sitting around and waiting. Incidentally this is an example of something very boring that I like to do. I am sure my tc post on the topic of past lives was offensive. I'm just an offensive person I guess.

So we discovered that the limited edition "holiday" flavors of that Swiss chocolate are secretly on sale for 90% off... so we went and bought out all the gingerbread chocolate from the Target stores in Fargo and Moorhead, haha. We are so evil. Go »The British know how to make TV
Correction to my earlier post - we have now seen almost to the end of season 2 of QAF (Darrell decided to watch it after all) and it seems only season 1 is really amazing. Perhaps it gets better again later, I don't know. Is it any coincidence that season 1 is the one copied almost directly from the British version? Go »Halloween
We got some pretty scary masks at KMart. Darrin went as a "Crypt Creature" and Darrell went as a werewolf. That is actually me in the skeleton mask but you'd never guess from this picture. Go »Chair
Over the weekend we went to Mills Fleet Farm to pick up the specific present my dad wanted for his birthday. I doubt you have the Fleet Farm in the more "civilized" parts of the world but it is a bit like a Walmart with the addition of things like calf medicine, saddles, fence posts, and a huge amount of hardware, machinery, building supplies, etc. I mostly stick to the more Walmart-like areas of the store, except for that one time when I built a fence :).

It seems I have quite a lot of former friends who wound up really, really, disliking me. So I am always alert to signs of that happening again. It's nobody's fault but my own, I assure you. Go »

It's been colder late in the spring here too, although that doesn't mean much. Snow in May is just wrong.
