Glorious, Glorious Snow...

...Boogers

Ecofont

At work, Jess discovered a new eco-friendly font that can be added to your PC or Mac. It apparently helps conserve the amount of ink you use by having "holes" in the font. We had to blow-up the font size quite large before the dots could be seen with the naked eye. The ink tends to bleed and fills in the dots you can see on screen. It will work well for all of our internal printouts at work.
You can use the link below for the website where it can be downloaded. PC's use the file extension .ttf. Good luck and Happy Printing.

How are your credit cards feeling?

Mine was quite relieved when its replacement came in the mail last week. It had been used, abused, and worn away to the plastic. The new one is just so shiny.

A thought in the cold

Have you ever wondered if there are people out there that are fearful of their eyes freezing upon stepping outside into the negative degree temperatures that winter brings?

Fun Weekend

It all started out with Glogg making Saturday morning. Grandpa and I were boozin' up the house with are very potent mixture of wine, spirits, and spices. I never knew you could get drunk off of fumes. :) Anyway, there's a video below of setting the Glogg on fire... that was our after lunch entertainment. Beware of the loud sizzling, my laughter and Mom's screaming at the tale end. Sorry, can't figure out the volume control.

Saturday finished with going out with Matt B. (The guy I've been dating). We were supposed to meet at Panache... which we did, but they were technically closed for a private party. What?... I had a 1 out of 365 day chance on that one. So we went to the standby coffee house of Starbucks and played a couple games. I brought Pass the Pigs. It was hilarious to see a couple kids reactions to us adults rolling pigs on the table.
Today, the fun continued with a Mom and Tom outing. Tom treated us to lunch at Jane's Icebox in Dunlap... mmm...mmm... good. Then Mom treated us to the movie Bolt in 3D. It was a good and fun movie, but not enough things came out of the screen. Mom could have jumped much more.
This evening I look forward to a little relaxation and taste-testing the cookies Laura gave me. They look mighty tasty.

Ever been tempted to...

...drive your right side tires up on the sidewalk? I was driving through a neighborhood at lunchtime that has sidewalks right next to the road (no grass in between). There was still snow on the sidewalks and I wanted to leave some tire tracks. I was just thinking of what other people might think, to see tire tracks on the sidewalk.

I would simple ease onto the sidewalk via someone's driveway and then exit at the next driveway. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately for me... the neighborhood was hoppin' and I would have had witnesses. Maybe next time.

Another Chilly Day

Sure, the calendar hasn't officially told us yet, but I firmly believe that winter is here. Just look outside, or slide to your car and I think you may just agree with me. What have I been doing lately? Well, I made cookies with the girls at work over the weekend... some of you may have been on the receiving end of those goodies. I also saw the movie Four Christmases with Matt. It was much better than I thought it would be and had some surprise stars in it. This week I rented the series, Six Feet Under, from Family Video and have been watching episodes of that. It's quite an interesting show.

Well, I had a request to post a picture with my next blog, so Momma, this one goes out to you.
