Others writing the Sunday Somethings: Kerry
Something that makes me happy: A long weekend with nothing planned – ample time to relax and reload.
Something i am struggling with: Weeds, weeds everywhere.
Something tasty: I think i finally perfected my mom’s vegetable soup.
Something i learned: Dryer sheets work pretty well as insect repellent.
Something i am reading: Self-Made Man: One Woman’s Journey into Manhood and Back, by Norah Vincent
Something happening around the house: We’re searching for the cosmic jewels in Super Mario Galaxy 2.
Something i am thinking: It’s rather amazing how my body responds to healthy food. The past few days we’ve made more of an effort, and Lance and i both have more energy.
Something i am looking forward to: I’m going to see Nathan and Heather this weekend for a vampire weekend. Heather and i have bonded over a crush on Jacob Black, and we’re excited to see Eclipse this weekend. It has unfortunately gotten bad ratings (so did the first two Twilight movies), but i don’t care.
Something i am hoping: I’m feeling a time crunch at work, and i hope to have a productive two weeks before i take a week off.
Something random: Lance’s car needs to be inspected. The auto shop did some work on his car a month or so ago, and said the computer in the car needed to reset itself before they could inspect it. He’s taken it back twice since then and the computer still hasn’t reset itself. What’s the deal?

Go out to Lance’s car with a wrench and remove the two cables attached to the battery. Let it sit for a minute or two then reconnect them. This will reset the computer. But, mechanic shops are not ‘allowed’ to do this for the sake of resetting the comp. We have to do it every year for the saturn when inspection time roles around. Looking forward to seeing you this weekend!
