Yay, new bed! Kathy, you don't want a pillowtop, it gets super lumpy and you can't flip the matress over like you can a regular one. I know this from experience (glares at 5 year old mattress that is now super uncomfortable).

Also, you can't use your old sheets (my mom just gave me all her old standard queen-sized sheet sets because she has a pillowtop).

The salespeople are telling me that pretty much all the mattresses are no-flip nowadays, even the non-pillowtop ones. Is that right?

Only to cover up his faux pas. Hee! What I found funny is that he didn't remember our first anniversary, where he went to a lot of trouble to have the baker ship a redux of our wedding cake from San Juan Is, WA to Boothbay Harbor, ME overnight mail, just because I'd never gotten a piece of our wedding cake. Trying to keep the surprise a secret -- especially with a bunch of my nieces and nephews dying to spill the beans -- must have been stressful enough that he repressed it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy anniversary, Sparky!

Once again, I really feel that I have been at work for MORE THAN ENOUGH time already today. And yet? NSM.

Happy Anniversary Sparky!

And the temperature has dropped from 89 to 81.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The Evil Storm of Doom hasn't gotten to us yet. But when it does, the temps are suppose to drop 20 degrees (and stay lower for a while).

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Interesting tidbit from the recently released stack of CIA files:

Some anecdotes reveal just how far outside the law some C.I.A. agents strayed. One technician was arrested in 1960 after trying to bug a Las Vegas hotel room. The operation had been requested by Sam Giancana, the Chicago mobster, who was then helping the C.I.A. in a plot to assassinate Mr. Castro.

Mr. Giancana had been concerned that his girlfriend, the singer Phyllis McGuire, was having an affair with the comedian Dan Rowan, and surveillance was ordered to “determine the extent of his intimacy” with her.

That's Dan Rowan of Rowan & Martin on Laugh In.
