Friday Shuffle - Now Actually on Friday Edition!
Not that there's much to say, since all the action's over at Boob-Ha-Ha. Donations keep rolling in. I keep being astounded. Can't post them fast enough. You know the drill. It's a pretty awesome drill, all told.
How did I live before I got my MacBook? This auction would be really, really hard.
Clara Jane and I had a lovely, normal day. We went to the market and the coffeehouse up the street. I'm still blissed about how errand-running can be done in less than an hour now. Clara Jane's been a bit of a terror this week, and having a low-key day with some extra attention did us both some good. We made a Splenda birthday cake for my diabetic dad, which she decorated with lots of non-diabetic nonpariels. We don't know how it tastes yet, but it's definitely pretty. This is what she told me while we were making cream cheese frosting: "When we give Grandpa his cake, I'm going to lick frosting off of it and get it on my face. Then everyone will laugh and call me Frosting Face. Huh huh huh ... It'll be so funny!" Yep, she's definitely inherited our sense of humor.
Tonight, I'll be leaving the house when the hours are in the double-digits to babysit. I can't remember the last time I left the house after, oh, 7 PM. If all goes well, the babysitee will be asleep and I'll have a peaceful night of Boob-Ha-Ha stuff, knitting, and such. I took a nap. I'm ready.
I wish I could shuffle from my MacBook, but with the busyness, there isnt' one single song on this machine yet. Can you believe that? So off we shuffle to Beatrice, the elder Apple product of the household.
1. Good-Hearted Woman - Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson
2. Ride Along - John Hiatt
3. The River - Bruce Springsteen
4. Only in Dreams - Weezer
5. Hell Yes - Beck
6. Underneath the Bunker - REM
7. Tennessee Homesick Blues - Dolly Parton
8. There is an End - The Greenhornes (which is, like, the third time I've heard them today)
9. When Something is Wrong with My Baby - Sam & Dave
10. Get It Get It - Scissor Sisters

Just for the record, my iPod's name is Mary Lou. She's very pleased to meet Beatrice.

My iPod's name is Poddy. He's happy to know both Mary Lou AND Beatrice.
My PowerBook, Celeste, appears to be dying dying. She shuts off whenever she feels like it if she's not plugged in, and today she ate two hours worth of work. I had to go hold my head in my hands until the urge to cry passed.

Oh my goodness. I want to kiss your shuffle. With tongue.

My iPod's name is Taequanda and she is pissed.

My iPods are Sally and Clapton. Sally is a nano, currently on loan to my daughter whose iPod is in need of a visit to the doctor. (Sorry, I don't know her name!) Clapton is my new video iPod; a welcome addition to the family.

My PowerBook is Mad Thing, and my G5 is Glitterbug. My old iMac G3 was Rosie, and my old PowerBook was Stella. I don't think I named any before that.

the difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits.
