Where do I start?

My boss stuck his tongue out at me today.

Really.

It was hilarious.

Our gay liquid waste specialist virtually propositioned me....

I think I should fast more often. I fasted this Yom Kippur for the first time in twenty years. I did drink a little bit so it wasn't REALLY fasting but I got my period and was seriously concerned that I'd get sick from losing so much fluids and not drinking.

Sunday night I went to Kol Nidrei at the Conservative Synagogue. I hated it! It was like being in church (based on TV and movies). There was a choir and a piano and an opera singing woman...UGH!!!!!!!

Monday morning I went to Chabad. It was much better and during the break I met two Israelis who were driving through and stopped for Yom Kippur. I went back to Chabad for Ne'ila and found out that there were four of them! All guys! And they were CUTE!!!! And I think one of them was kind of coming on to me.

Maybe he'll come back to visit. I gave them my card and told them to let me know when they're in town.

Maybe....

New Furniture Part I





I put the bed together and got the dressers in place.

I moved my new TV console to a new place so I'll have room for the dining room set but I didn't have time to put it together yet so more is coming.

State Fair

I just did my first day of inspections at the State Fair. It was quite an experience. I wish all my restaurants were as well equipped as those booths are.

It was a nice change of pace. Even our food program manager was out there doing inspections. Sunday I'm working at the Green Expo then Monday I get to deal with the explosion on my desk when I come back after four days out of the office. I see another 12-14 hour day coming...

HEE HEE!!!!!!

I just sold a pair of nightstands that I paid $20.00 for used two years ago for $30.00

I'll post pics of all my NEW furniture when I have everything in place. I bought a new bedroom set, dining room set and end tables for the living room.

Climate Change Part I

We're only two weeks into the semester so I know I'll have more to say but here's what we talked about in the last two weeks that makes the whole climate change thing so interesting.

A lot of people were saying that the changes in temperature had to do with solar flares and is not from the increase in green house gases we've been releasing into the atmosphere. Well here's a news flash for you. For the last few years we've been experiencing increasing warming and the solar activity has been at an extreme low. In fact we may be heading for another solar period similar to the mid 1600's when the earth went into a mini ice age because solar activity weakened so much. Maybe...

That's a big maybe and no one really knows. And all the talk by the naysayers has to do with this lul in solar activity. It may continue and it may not no one knows. We don't have a good enough understanding of how the sun functions to make even an educated guess.

So...

If the sun remains relatively dormant for several decades the greenhouse gases will be a good thing.

If the sun comes back to life in a few years global warming will take off uncontrollably.

At some point the sun will come back to life.

Do we want to be prepared or not?

Stay tuned for more.
