I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Hey, Dude!

Another thing I blame the Superbowl for is not being able to get the tune of "I Believe in a Thing Called Love" out of my head all week. I somehow missed The Darkness being that catchy back when they were in rotation on the radio. (Though it was amusing to see that Justin Hawkins apparently did so much coke he now believes it's the 70s.)

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yay clean sinks!

Okay, my productivity has finally petered out. I am off on my numbers by $1.98. Which probably means I put a $2.00 where it was supposed to be a $.02 somewhere, but I am too zonkered to figure it out.

The SO split and stacked another rick of wood, though, so it's been a productive day altogether.

Anyway, yes, tomorrow is taxes and housecleaning.

So now what?

Want to write a bio for me?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Want to write a bio for me?

Or help me unpack? I have to get Dude's room ready for him.

And think of a better name

I went wine-tasting and bought more wine. Right. And then petted the puppies at the adoption tables at the pet store. And then walked the dog.

I should do some writing. Or laundry.

Inspired by previous conversation, I'm on Ancestry.com and I'm so frustrated. Now I remember why I quit using it before. I found my father in the 1930 Census - he was 7 - and I'm trying to get information on his first marriage. I entered all the information I have on him, and it's returning thousands of search results from everywhere, like Australia and Wales, places where I know he never went, and nothing from Michigan or any state where I know he lived. So in order to get more information, apparently I need to have more information.

You can restrict your search by country, and then dive deeper from there. If you know the approximate year of his first marriage, add that in, as well.

1940 census data comes online in April, I believe. Not that it will help me, being the first born American citizen and all.
