Jan. 25th, 2005 11:50 pm+1. After working in Nashua for something like 5 years, I noticed for first time today that the park near work has an outdoor skating rink. And of course my skates are in the trunk of my car, so I can go skating before, after, or during work. w00t!
-2. Kylie's male mouse died today. It wasn't like the female with the giant-ass tumor on her ass, who we weren't expecting to see Thanksgiving, but who survived past Christmas. No, this one had a heart attack while shoveling snow, or something like that.
~3. I just got my first email ever from my mother. It was a perfectly ordinary email, but it was a great disturbance in the force. I mean, she's 72, and she doesn't do email.
=4. At the beginning of the winter, Francie bought a humidifier with a 5-gallon reservoir and a digital hygrometer. Naturally, it ran dry over the weekend, and so did the house. 36 hours and 8 gallons later, we've hauled the humidity from 25% up to an almost acceptable 40%. (Incidentally, this is the first winter I can remember where my hands have not cracked horribly and painfully.)
