WARNING, SEVERE GROANING AHEAD!
From ObeeRoommate, by way of ObeeWife:

Camden, NJ: Viewers of the hit ABC reality show "The Bachelorette" will once again watch as a young woman decides which of twenty-five eligible men she would like to choose as a potential partner. This season's installment will feature Jennifer Corey, a 26-year old paralegal from Camden, NJ. Corey's main claim to fame is actually through her father, a food scientist with the Campbell's Soup Corporation who patented a process for reducing chicken, beef, and vegetables to the hearty and distinctive stock Campbell's is known for. Be sure to check out this season's installment of "The Bachelorette" or, as ABC executives are calling it, "Who Wants to Be a Boullion Heir?"

I LOVE MY WIFE!
Got my birthday present from my wife yesterday. Now, my birthday isn't until this coming Sunday, the 18th, but we're going to be out of town with my family on a week vacation.

My birthday present from my wife was her taking the day off of work and treating me to the traveling Star Wars exhibit they have at the COSI science museum here in Columbus. As soon as I heard this was coming to town I wanted to see it, being the Star Wars geek I am. It compares a number of the technologies that are used in the Star Wars movies with what's possible using today's technologies. Also had a large number of props and models from the movies. It was a lot of fun. Personally, I wouldn't have minded more expanded info and more props on some of the spots, but I still really enjoyed it. More information about the exhibit can be found here.
After hitting the Star Wars stuff, we wandered around as much of the rest of COSI as we could.

Very fund day. Love you sweetie.



 
INTERESTING WEEKEND
Has a fairly interesting weekend. Went to a wedding on Friday. Definately one of the more unique wedding I've ever been to. A couple of friends of ours are members of the SCA. So their wedding was on Friday. It was kind of a combination between an old Renaissance style wedding and a modern day civil service. Short, sweet, and to the point. But very nice none-the-less.

Saturday was a pretty lazy day. Did some work around the in-laws place. Celebrated my Dad's 55th birthday in the evening.

Sunday was fun. Went out to Carousel dinner theater with ObeeWife and ObeeInLaws. It was their 33rd anniversary on Friday, so that was our anniversary present to them. I've never been to Carousel before. You get dinner before the show, so that you're not trying to eat and watch at the same time. Dessert comes during intermission. The food was pretty good. The show they had playing was Grease. I've never seen Grease as a stage show, but I've seen the movie, like almost everybody. The stage version is definately different than the movie. Much more interesting in some ways. The show we saw was really good. The show stealer though was when the guy they had playing Teen Angel did Beauty School Dropout. It started off pretty normal, as in the movie, but then wandered into a Gospel song. Best number of the night.

Over all, very fun weekend.

WADDA YA WANT?!
Re-reading a great book, Wishing Season by Esther Friesner. It concerns genies and wishing and the comic hijinks that ensue.
(Also happens to contain one of my personal favorite passages. A genie has just come out of a giant gemstone: Ugly. Such a small word, yet in ordinary circumstances more than enough to describe sites not pleasant to the eye. Yet in this case, ugly was far too small a word, and wholly inadequate to the task before it. If it were any consolation to the poor, overwhelmed word, its comrades hideous, repulsive, and loathsome also had to leave the field in defeat.)

So if you had 3 wishes, what would you wish for?
(Couple of ground rules: Ixnay on the wishing for more wishes. No bringing people back from the dead.)



 
IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD
Well, here it is 6/6/06. Supposed day of the (possible) apocalypse. But I don't think it's going to happen. Because today is already tomorrow, thanks to that international date line thingy. So if today is already tomorrow, then that means that today is actually yesterday. So if today is really tomorrow and yesterday, then it's not really today, and the world can't end.
(Editor's note: If you managed to follow that, heaven help you.)

On the other hand, if the world does end today, at least I don't have to go to my crappy job tomorrow.
