Don't read this if you haven't seen X-Men III yet (unless you don't care).

It looks like we may have a new house!

Well, finding a house is turning out to be a more difficult and frustrating experience than I expected.

I think my blogs are getting boring (unless, that is, they are not getting that way, but have been that way for some time). It's hard to be clever every day. I guess that's why I'm not a comic strip writer.

Unless we're talking about the guy who writes "Rex Morgan, MD." Am I the only one who doesn't get the point of that one at all?

Have I ever said how much I hate people who smoke in their cars?

I'm stuck in the lab all day today, so no real time to blog. Here's a few pictures though, from shearing day and of our new tank.

Had a busy, but fun weekend.

Look at me, I'm slacking. It's Thursday already, and I haven't blogged since Monday.

Woohoo! Congratulations to Cynthia and Steve, who got engaged over the weekend! Cynthia called me on Sunday while we were driving back from Santa Rosa - my phone was acting up, so it took about 3 tries before she could tell me the good news. Congrats to both of you guys, I'm so excited for you!

Remember a while ago when I was getting all the freebie stuff? Well, I'd completed the XBox 360 site back in August of last year, but because of all the shortages, the company STILL hasn't sent any out. Luckily, they offered to send people $400 worth of gift cards instead.

I don't watch the OC, but apparently Marissa and Ryan were admitted to Cal, and it's causing a bunch of brouhaha. So much so that the Berkeley admissions office has been deluged with calls from people complaining about how these fictional characters got in when they didn't. And you wonder why.

Well, it wasn't that bad, but it was pretty busy. Our house went on the market on Friday! You can see the listing here. Our realtors held a brokers' tour that day, and over the weekend we had two open houses.
