so, DS2 and I are watching the SCARY movie “1408″ while I’m fooling with upgrading to Wordpress 2.5 (which I think is done, BTW)

Yeah right.
Several friends have asked me this week if I ever heard more from Mr. Hockey. The answer is no, but I wouldn’t be surprised to hear from him today.
Tonight I have two tickets to see Triple Espresso. A Comedy. A very, very funny, long-running comedy. I’ve seen it twice, years ago. It’s closing soon [...]

Announcement.
Yesterday was the commemoration of the day Mary found out she was pregnant. Can you imagine having the rest of the world for millennium know about (and remember) the day you realized you were late?
