So now we have moved on to watching Fullmetal Alchemist. We borrowed season 1 from the library. I quite like it. I never got tired of the main recurring joke yet :P. And Ed's a cutie. I know, you all were dyingt to hear more about my bizarro taste in, er, "men"... haha :) We will probably wind up buying season 2, since it is not at the library and is quite cheap at Walmart. Yeah for some reason Walmart seems to be a lot lower than Amazon on some of these items.

Sorry to Lori and any other fans if I've sounded overly negative about anime. I'm just an overly negative person I guess.I like all we've seen. That's why it's all I've been writing about!

Also to Lori, you did a marvelous job on the Fullmetal military uniform. I didn't even remember that that was the show, but when I saw the uniforms I remembered seeing the photos (a lot of years ago, probably!) of Ray in the costume you made. It's quite accurate.

For what it's worth, you don't come across as negative about anime. You wouldn't still watch it if you didn't like it. :-)  I'm glad you're enjoying it so far.

Gross jelly beans

So, we all know I am a little juvenile for my age. We went and purchased some Beanboozled jelly beans a while back - the box comes with a mix of good flavors and disgusting flavors but you can't tell the difference until you eat them because the color is the same. I was apprehensive but most of the flavors I tried were really not that bad. Go »

Drinks

We found a big 1.75 liter bottle of Absolut Apeach for $10 ... We didn't realize what a great special this was until we saw that the little 0.75 Go »

Insecurity, North Dakota weather

Does my insecurity have no end? Will I ever stop embarrassing myself and annoying others by putting myself down? Is there some drug I can take to make myself stop? Go »

Our dog is smart

Our sheltie, Philip, is really smart. Here is his latest Oscar-worthy film, where he shows off his ability to mimic Darrell doing the following actions: turn a circle, stretch, sneeze, lie down, roll over (partway), hop, and speak: link Philip also knows how to read a few words, kind of, though I think he gets bored with it :-). Currently he's in school for agility, which entails learning how to run around a course jumping hurdles and using tunnels and seesaws in a prescribed manner. Go »

Office Party

Last weekend we went to an office party at my boss's lake house. We took Philip and he got along famously with my boss's dog, Willow, who is half greyhound and half husky. I like Willow quite a bit. Go »
