Long (Dong - Duck!) description of my weekend

Hope Elana's birthday bash was a success. Somebody should post some pictures. I hope everyone enjoyed the card Danny and I sent! I discovered there is a extension for Firefox that will turn any webpage on/off of Sweedish-chef (Bork Bork) text... so that is funny!

I didn't do much on Saturday. Danny had a Shelby County new band director meeting from 9-12 on Saturday. After he got home we went to Wal-Mart and Target in search of school supplies (and somehow we left without buying any notebook paper). We also cleaned the aquarium... finding not one (which I thought had died anyway) but THREE babies still alive. There were several little corpses found in the old filter, but not sure how many there were to start with. I think we might have 2 females (which sounds weird since they are having babies roughly 5 weeks after we brought them home). However, I read that platies can store sperm for up to 18 months. After that we pretty much sat around on our respective wireless notebooks and messed around on the internet all night.

We went to the 11:00 contemporary service today at Advent Pres. It was different... the music was a rock style (with a country sounding singer who was often very flat) and the sound guy had maximum reverb on the soloists mic (it was AWFUL). The sermon was given by a church member attending seminary at Princeton. It was about being too busy for God, and focused on the sad fact that only one hour is allotted each week to church for most people, and that there is a big rush to get to lunch... so we went over by 30 minutes.

After we got home (and had lunch) I started cleaning the shower in our bathroom and Danny painted the trim in the other bathroom. After cleaning, I did something that I never would have thought of doing (if not for the internet)... I waxed the shower walls. Apparantly cultured marble requires that periodically. It made a big difference, but took a long time. Didn't do the whirlpool tub or the long sinktop, but I guess that will happen down the road some time. We're now sitting here watching Conan (aka ConeBone69 --- you'd have to have seen the intro) on the Emmys. Almost our bedtime, actually.

Tomorrow is my first day of classes. Not sure what is expected of us for tomorrow. I have four classes and two labs -beginning at 8:45 and ending at 5:30. I'm sure I'll be ready for bed before I get home. We got all kinds of expensive books and toys on Friday, but I left most everything in my locker at school. Only brought home my retinoscope(s) because I had to charge the battery(ies) for lab this week. I figure I better let someone tell me how to actually use it before i start shining it in Danny's eyes! :)
