I just read this to DH (who is constantly writing proposals) and he loved it. :D He says it would indeed make life so much easier and free up a lot of his time from writing and reading proposals and give him more time for research.Quote:

I hate the time change. Takes away an hour of the tortoises' grazing time.
I forgot to change the timers on my timed lights. When I got up, Mr. Toad was sunbathing under a heat lamp that's not supposed to come on till daylight, and Milly was wide awake!
I hope the guy in Colorado checks his e-mail nice and early...
Have any of you been to the Indy 500??
Sitting here pondering which event to try and get us to next year. I need to figure out how to keep it secret from Ian as Í want to surprise him for his birthday...

Actually, that sort of used to work. You still had to write a proposal that had merit and got some descent peer reviews. But you got funded because the people who controlled the money knew what you could do. Now the funding is so tight that it's really cutthroat.Quote:

Sorry everybody, false alarm. Take down the signs and streamers. Put the cake in the freezer, we'll have it next month. Yeah, you can eat the chocolate gifts. They have a shelf life of what... about 3 days? Eat 'em if ya got 'em.
***slaps head and talks to herself** I only changed the clock by one hour. I'm soooo confused.
***Down periscope, dive, dive, dive!!!***
Hey, X, I was right there with you!
Happy Birthday EVERY DAY to your real Birthday, Nanci!!!:D :D :D
Isn't there some list on the forum front page way down at the bottom that says whose birthday it is that day?
X- you got me, too. I'm like- wait- my birthday isn't next month in December!!
Still no word from snake guy...
I thought you were just being sneaky. Not everyone posts their b-day. Shoulda investigated further, that's all. Of course you caught it in time so I don't think the b-day gods will rack up an extra one in there. If they do, go for a nice long ride. I hear it can take years off a girl. :DQuote:

I hope everything goes well with the snake dude. (first time I've ever said that in a sentence) Inez sounds divine.
Well, off to scrub in the tub. Just realized I'm still in my bike shorts. Gotta have time to stop for a few things on the way to work too. This hour jump is just messing me all up.
have a good day y'all
X.
I hate it when you contact someone and they don't.... read their emails.
happy not birthday Nanci, I have a bday in November too.
KY was cold for a reason. the temp dropped to 30 degrees last night here, i got up to discover my car encased in a block of solid ice. I had trouble opening the door and couldn't scrape the windows. I resorted to the forbidden dumping of a bucket of hot water over the windows. Worked great just like always.
I might ride the bike to work tomorrow since it's the last time I will be able to until spring.. and wednesday i am leaving on an airplane.
maybe i should buy some peeps (at full price!) for my cousins in Italy?
Click on Calendar, somewhere to find birthdays.
There are two gals that share My birthday but i don't know them.
Brr! Ugh! No kidding, Mimi- I hadda scrape my windows for the first time after work at 11. Ugh. Biking to work on sub-30 mornings is gonna be interesting. Thank god for insulation.
Xrayted- yup, quietly drooling. Woke up when I came home and was feeling better... we had dinner and watched V for Vendetta. So good. Too bad people can't be moved by a superhuman "terrorist" here. :rolleyes: I love that movie so much...
Brr! Heat!
Eer, still haven't heard from snake guy- I just wrote him again saying I was ready and willing to buy Inez as soon as he replied with her feeding history...
Yay, she's bought and paid for! Now she just has to get here. Think tiny snake that will fit in a margerine cup, traveling from Colorado to Florida, on a plane, by UPS, in a box marked "This Side Up" "Perishable!!" I hope they keep her right-side up!
oh, that will be something to really be nervous about. I have had many animals shipped, and all turned out okay, but it's always nerve wracking until they are in your arms... (i have had a goat, cats, chickens shipped to me)
but so glad you finally got through to the guy. did he just not see your first correspondence?
I am going out for my walk in the sun with hat and gloves just in case it's still cold out!
Whooo Hooo!!!! May Inez have a safe and speedy journey to your loving home. Keep us updated.Quote:
