  1. Sometimes you're the windshield. Sometimes you're the bug. Today is definitely KERSPLAT around here! Whee!

      Stay clear of the windshield and if you can, the screen! I dislike buggy days but they make me appreciate the windshield days!

  5. Our car dies and when we go to look for a used car to buy, people look at us funny when I explain I really need a car with a CD player. Why? To play and replay our stash of Great Course audio cds!

      Some of the newer cars here don't have a CD player! Really! I was so horrified. They have all the bells and whistles but no CD player. So we bought one that has both a CD player and an MP3 thingy. Can I rip my CDs to MP3? I was not sure about that. We don't have laptops with that capability any more. Our laptops are too cheap, just like our car lol.

  10. Kiddo has his very first math student today! Teaching Calc 2. I am so enjoying listening to him share his love of math.

      It went really well. The kid seems to be a natural (but needs some help to control over excitement about a concept). :)

      Funny but I only recently really realized this. Always thinking someday I will do this or that...my somedays were slipping away that way.

  14. It's snowing. In the foothills. Of San Diego. In May. Go home, Mother Nature, you're drunk. And that's probably a preexisting condition.

      The weather is crazy. A week ago it was 90 degrees here. Last night I was shivering because it dropped to upper 40s.
