Catchup blogging lite

It’s been an insanely busy month; I’ve not bookmarked much this time. Hell, I might even be able to categorize them for you this time around…

G bought a rocket, and with the rains we’ve had recently, we MIGHT be able to use it soon:

And since we’re going to a wedding in Houston next weekend…

I’ve made it through the 4th season, and am giving it a second go…

And to riff on that; “There’s always sysadmin bookmarks in J’s catchup blogging…”

And just a few more things:

Texas parents of students taking STAAR tests, you can track the entire history of their scores here (and I learned G’s science score before it arrived int he mail!):

A game recommented by a new work colleague, probably friend…

And G want to cook up some flan:

Remarkably few bookmarks, now with annotations! Hope you enjoy…

A little perspective:

A little perspective: If you are, or know a 16-year-old who is driving, he/she was born after Nivet joined our family. If you are, or know a 20-year old in the second or third year of college, his/her first memory is after (probably long after) Nivet joined our family. That’s how long he was with us. That’s why my heart still aches, and why my brain is flooded with memories. What were you doing the day before Halloween 1994? Can you remember that far back? We were at the first street animal shelter, after buying Cy his first copy of Finale at the Guitar Center on South 1st. This cat taught himself to open doors. This cat never scratched G as a baby. This cat was the point of the film “Gates of Heaven,” and now he is gone, both too soon and too late. I have to return to Annie Hall: “The food here is terrible!” “And such small portions, too!” Meaning: “Life is full of pain and suffering, but it’s all over with much too quickly.” Seize the day, my friends. Live your life as you should live it, by your own estimation. But don’t ask me what I had for lunch two days ago… I’ve long forgotten that.
