I've Had Time To Think

My wife is one smart cookie! I freely admit that she is much smarter than I am, and she had a ball last week with my Stupid Website of the Week. She spent quite a bit more time on Jon Swift's blog and Conservapedia than I did and I am ashamed to admit that she pointed out things I shouldn't have missed. Specifically that Jon Swift is a satirical name paying homage to Jonathon Swift, the Irish satirist who wrote Gulliver's Travels and A Modest Proposal. Considering I have a history degree, I must now hang my head in shame for having missed that one! I am now convinced that this blog should be the this week's stupid site, but I am vain so I won't do that!

There's not a whole lot going on around here. I have a giant portable storage unit in my driveway that my wife and I are working on filling up with excess things to make moving and selling our house easier. Surprise, surprise that most of the things we are putting in there are baby-related or books!

Meva celebrated her birthday on Monday. Her parents came to visit for the weekend, which was very nice and we all took the kids out for dinner on Saturday for her. I treated her to a nice Buffet dinner of Indian food Monday night. I made sure to get her eggplant Bharta, Naan, Samosas, and a Mango Lassi! She was very happy and ate almost everything on her own over the next few days........which is exactly what I did that for.

I didn't get to enter that comic book contest I was working on. While I am still excited about doing my story, I don't quite think my artist was. That's ok, but it's frustrating to say the least. Now I'm going to have to start that process again all over and do this from scratch on my own. Once it's done, it will all be worth it!

I've got an appointment scheduled tomorrow to see a hand specialist for this nagging injury I've had in my thumb for over two years now. I've had something like 10 cortisone shots over the last 6 months and it hasn't improved, hopefully this doctor will find out what's wrong and be able to fix it without surgery. I'll keep you posted.
