The Junk Haulers Are Coming

I have an appointment with 1-800-Got-Junk on June 21. I expect to get rid of about 50% of the crap that I own by then.

I Need a New Seasonal Banner

For up there ^^^

Springtime in Vermont. What does that mean? To me, it means mud season. But having not found any large-enough pics of muddy, rutted roads, I'm at a loss.

What images do you conjure up when you think of spring in Vermont? Doesn't matter if you're not from there - I imagine places I've never seen all the time!

Another VT Vacay!

The possibility is high that I will have a short jaunt to VT in June. Any suggestions on activities that I didn't cover last time? What do you want to see pics of? Northern VT only, please!

NOTE: If you aren't familiar with Vermont, just look up something here (click) you think is nifty in Northern VT and let me know.

Stressy Birthday to Me!

Work is really overwhelming right now. It sucks to have that constantly anxious feeling on your birthday! I hope I have an appetite for Joe Theismann's tonight.

*UPDATE* DO NOT go to Joe Theismann's. Unless you really love salt, I guess.

Twas not to be...

Went to Clyde's to watch the game with about 100 alumni.

AU did give the Vols some scary moments for most of the game. In the end, the experience of the Vols' players won out and AU went down by 15 points, despite AU's having the player with the most points, and killing the Vols in rebounds.

The only way I could be more proud is if they had won the game. It was so much fun to watch with a bunch of AU people - the energy of the room was amazing.

Go AU!!

Give us a miracle! Beat them Vols!
