I saw the coolest little gadget over at ljcfyi and had to make note of it here so that when I have money again, I can get one.



It's called a Butter Boy. Marcus is always having the darnest time buttering corn, so this would be really cool! He'd really like it because it's a little freakish, too.

My mood icons are broken!

Update: OK, all fixed. That's what I get for changing the default field formatting awhile back and not checking to see what it did. I guess the way I have my mood icons coded didn't like that!

Saw this over at my friend's site:

You Passed the US Citizenship Test

Congratulations - you got 9 out of 10 correct!

Since they don't give you the correct answers, I put them in the extended (if you're curious).

Wait—here’s more »

So, yesterday my boss gives everyone in the office these Bono's Bucks to be used at Bono's Pit Bar-B-Q restaurant. The only one in Denver is at Dry Creek & I-25. The problem was they were photocopies and cut really weird. We were all afraid to use them. Well, the opportunity to have free ribs overcame my doubt as to the vailidity of the documents, so I stopped and to get some grub on the way home from work. Fortunately, the certificates were legit. It was actually quite good. They had fried okra, which, amazingly enough, Marcus actually really likes. I still have another certificate, so I'll have to do that again sometime next week.

Man, I just do not feel like doing any work today...so I won't. It's kind of a shame that I had to drive 50 miles just to surf the Internet and iChat with Marcus, though. Really could've done this from home, y'know? I'm taking tomorrow off as my day to make up for overtime put in before deadline. Since we have Memorial Day off, it'll be a nice 4-day mini vacation.

I'm supposed to be working on the Filemaker database for this place, but I'm not in the mood. It's too nice of a day out.

I am catching up on my blog reading and found this comic over at Freakgirl:



It's totally summing up how I'm feeling about my creativity lately. I can't even motivate myself to do the Artist's Way right now. I'm being so self-destructive and I'm wallowing in self-pity and it's not cool.

I'm actually enjoying that Gaping Void site, though. He's got lots of good advice. I'll have to add that to my linklist.
