St. Claire
My version of St. Claire.
I'm up because I was paged on some supposedly important issue and now I cannot fall asleep.
I thought it was funny when this would happen to my Dad. Not that he was paged, but that he could not fall asleep once rousted early in the morning. Now, not so funny.
I suppose I should try and attend church tomorrow but I can't say that I will want to after not sleeping.
I saw little CM yesterday. He is highly mobile and causing his Grandma much running around. He can turn the lamp in the living room on an off with its chain and he can take a penny out of a pill box and put it back again and recap the pill box. He can climb stairs and likes to hide in the closet and can close the sliding mirrored doors on himself. He's not even close to 2 but already he is going to be hard to keep up with.

Buffer the Angst
The above were taken by Damn and messed around with in Photoshop by me.
Well WEF was a fun party. I was able to complete my book raison d' etre and give it out to all my friends. I made 50 and still have maybe 10 left. If you would like one. Please email me and I will happily send you one until I run out. I may post it here later, but it is unlikely that the web version will be as nice as the paper one. It came out looking pretty sharp, despite at least two uncaught grammatical errors.
If you are here for the first time after receiving the aforementioned, Welcome! I hope you enjoy the material I have posted here including the weblog that you are reading now.
The only problem with the weekend was that I only have allergies when I am in Davis and Sacramento. So time spent outside at Whole Earth Festival is a slow suffering under all of the pollen that is shuffled up from thousands of Birkenstock's. Otherwise I enjoyed socializing from morning to night. Mrs. mice put up with me and didn't begrudge me a minute.
The EMEA MMM came off without a hitch So I didn't need to turn MM back on. I am grateful for that.
More L8r,

Lake Tahoe
In Lake Tahoe with my team. I took some photos today. Are they strange or boring? You decide
I'm having fun. I lost 100$ on Thursday. Had a great dinner this (Friday) evening. Almost too good.
The waiting area for the red waffle hut had some kitschy decorations.
A mural outside of the waffle hut caught my attention.
A collection of buoys I found interesting.
The sun made a flare and I got some of the mountains behind.

Illuminati Test Card
I found this great site about the
history of the british test card. A test card is the image shown during the time between scheduled broadcasts. The american equivalent is the color bar shown after a station signs off for the night or during some sort of technical failure. As more and more stations will show paid programming all night long the test card will soon become a thing of the past.
In this light I have made my own test card with a flying eye from a german woodcut. "Illuminati Test Card" so there it is.
Weekend was brightened despite gloomy whether by spending Sunday with our good friend and my "best person" EQ. We saw
Star Trek Nemesis. Luckily I was convinced this movie would suck. I say luckily because it was a decent movie and was much better than I was led to believe. It was nice to see Patrick Stewart and the gang. mrs. mice and I were able to predict a lot of what was going to happen before it happened. A game we like to play. Hopefully it didn't spoil it for Emily or anyone else in the theater.
I did sorta make a joke during the movie. There is a love scene between Deanna and Will who are now married. Will is on top and there aren't a lot of covers to go around. The shot begins by showing their kissing faces and gradually the shot is panning down more and more you see more and more of Johnathan Frakes' (Riker) nekkid body (or a body double I'm guessing). I said it before I had a chance to censor myself and it was loud enough that a couple people laughed. "Please God, don't show his butt." I try to be good and not ruin a movie for the other people who paid their hard earned money for a movie ticket. Sadly, I hear my brother has a similar problem. I just dread the day that someone has to shout "Shut up!" at me in a movie house. Because I really would feel bad.
EQ is a good person. We realized again for the 100th time that we share a lot of values with her. That sort of begs the question, well, what values? Lets just say the that she is trustworthy, and that I consider her part of my family. I know I didn't really answer the question. But there is a tendency recently amongst some of our friends, I think, to be disrespectful. And luckily we have one friend who isn't and that is Emily. Yes I am being judge-mental, yes I should be able to accept people for who they are. I can't tell people what to do. But can I wish that they wouldn't act foolish and break each others hearts? Of course not. everyone has to learn the hard way, especially me.
I have said too much already.
So with that,
More later.

Black Hair
I dyed my hair black. It looks very fake. I like that.
This is also a test to see if I can get a graphic into my weblog. Is it working?
I have been trying to get
gallery working. Its not been easy. I imagine though it will be worth it though. It looks, as they say, cool.
More Later.
