Danny fixed my computer a few minutes ago, sprawled on his bedroom floor. It only cost me $22.95 for the video card, and some treat here in Toronto this weekend, yet to be determined. Tomorrow we'll buy and install an ethernet card.

In other news, my new scarf turns out to have an unexpected degree of elasticity, stretching long and thin or scrunching up thick and fat like a leech. This marvellous amorphous quality has led me to christen it the Thneed. Do I need to tell anyone what a thneed is?

Ask me. Please.

Oh thank you. Of course the yarn alone cost me more than three ninety-eight.

If a thneed is shot out of a cannon in Boise travelling at 120 mph, and another thneed is shot out of a cannon in Denver travelling at 240 mph ...

Hehe, I'm wondering how you turned a classic vision of environmental apocalypse into a math problem. ;-)

Yay! glad you have a new video card. Hope all is well in Wafflevile. :-)

I'd forgotten what a thneed was, read your I'm the Lorax post this morning.

Oh, that scarf on your head, too cute. I had a chuckle looking at it.

(by the way, nice hairy chest).

Thanks for the compliment. Doing well, here. Hope you are too.

You are so welcome Van. :-)

While it was foggy this morning, it turned out to be a lovely, if chilly afternoon with not a cloud in the sky and sunny - yet again.

Just got back from a little lunch out and some cruising around in the cool sunshine.

So, yes, I'm doing well thanks.
