Already eleven Halloween movies watched, including four hosted by Joe Bob Briggs on MonsterVision (ya’ know that late night show on TNT in the 90s) and all four Phantasm movies, the latter three of which neither of us had ever seen. There has been non-stop Halloween Internet radio – a couple stations play songs, a…
Read More Best Halloween month ever so far, and a pause for Balloon FiestaAnd, it ended with a whimper rather than a bang. I can’t believe there were no trick or treaters. We got two before it got dark but none after. We packed it in at 750pm. Although, one showed up at 801 and someone was ringing the door bell at 930 – the porchlight was already…
Read More So, Halloween month is over.She was off today, finally. The day started with finding out the balloons did launch after all. And we have a lousy view – little more than dots in the distance. And none of the sites that stream the event work on the PS3 browser anymore (and we don’t own a computer). And, of course,…
Read More Great day off with Terra (Oct 7, 2012)She got home from work around 11 last night and had to work a 6a to 6p twelve hour shift today. So we got up at 430 after getting to sleep around 1145.

That poor girl is very tired, sore, sleep-deprived at this point.
Read More Daily recap – Sept 24, 2012Forgot to say on yesterday’s recap… Terra and I spent some time on the big bath area in our room yesterday. We’d found some sheer fabric at a thrift store – like a curtain panel and valance in the lavender color she’s been wanting to go with in there – and we used it as…
Read More Sept 15, 2012 – our last Saturday, and an awesome one it was :)We got a couple small bottles of Torani syrup at Walmart the other day, caramel and vanilla. This morning, I made Terra an iced vanilla latte and I had an iced caramel Americano. We really do avoid flavoring coffee – we see it as what people do to cover the taste of bad coffee –…
Read More Tuesday, sept 11, 2012I swapped out the lock nut type thing from my old Kyocera grinder into the new Porlex grinder. The internals of the two seem to be identical yet we can’t seem to get as fine a grind. With this old nut in, it does cinch down tighter and I almost choked my espresso machine this…
