Do we get to? From what they are saying, they are excited about coming here- and while they are here various musicians will feed them home-smoked wild salmon, take them out on boats and up in the air in a float plane, so maybe they will decide to stay?

From the looks of the weather outside I'll be staying home in the warm. It's SNOWING again!

One day when I was in early grade school, someone in the family mentioned that it was Friday the 13th. It was the first time I remember anything about it, so I asked what that meant. My folks weren't superstitious about it, just told me about the belief. Within a few minutes afterward, I stepped out on our porch, slipped on ice, and just about busted my ass. No, I didn't become really superstitious about it, but I always remember that.

Sandra -- that is a great idea!!! Half of the horror is over -- my work life is in boxes except for the parts I could not bear to let go that are in my home office along with my work computer so I can at least pretend I am in control!!!

Had to go out on a building inspection today and - as Jacqui says - was snowing and actually snowing ice......very nasty but what else can you expect in Maine in late April?

Snowing here too... started about 7AM. Bad luck for my Newfoundland gusets. Shirley wanted to hit the mall and George wanted to go to a Lifestyle show at the Coliseum. But, we'll see how bad the storm gets.

If it gets too wild, we'll have to be content with a fridge full of libations whilst we prepare the fish cakes, Ruffed Grouse, deer steaks, and bottled moose. An unlucky day? Not for me.

Happy Friday the 13th, Bruce!

There's only a bit over an hour of it left here in Oz. I don't imagine much can go wrong now. It's been an okay day - nothing terrible has happened - but my pottering has not achieved as much as I would have liked because I haven't been in the mood to get motivated. Ho hum.

The only bummer that's happened around here today is that I looked at the TV listings for tonight and "Monarch of the Glen" has been pre-empted for some other show. (mutter mutter mutter) I sent a harsh e-mail to the TV station.

Other than that, so far, so good. Seven hours and a bit to go.

I got my new car rear-ended.

Uh-huh; "new car rear-ended"; so much for the nay-sayers who don't believe the day is accursed. Just came home from being out for a couple of hours, and our flag pole had rusted off and fallen over in the yard. I'm not sure if that was really caused by Friday the 13th, or if it's from the liberal corrosion of American patriotism. Maybe a little of each.

Frogprince - if it were the Friday 13th thing, you would have been standing under the flagpole.

I got on the wrong train, but as I was partially asleep and reading a book, that's not an unusual occurence.

Well - I survived......everything is in its place and my office is ready to work in. I have lost my water view but actually have a great view of the interstate and the walls supporting it -- covered in interesting graffiti so I shall have something to read to keep me going......!

I can do this -- I can survive this move!!!!! Oh by the way -- it is snowing in Maine - big time.....and it is 4/15!

I worked my ass off killing pizza. Almost a $1,000 USD lunch hour.

I had a fantastic birthday. Italian meal with 8 friends, with lots and lots of red wine. Followed by cocktails in the local greek bar, a sober up session at mother-in-laws, and then round two, the local pub with more friends.

Hurrah!
