First, cranky old lady rant out of the way.... So I've been online since high school, when it was just BBS sites and really big long distance phone bills.  When we moved to Potsdam and Pete went back to Clarkson, the web was just a footnote in a book he was reading. Yahoo was just a hot list by a couple of guys. Pete actually wrote the very first HTML quick guide. In all that time, banning or blocking? It was something that you did to people that were horrible or stalking you. It's not for KEEPING SYMMETRY AND NEATNESS TO A FRIENDS LIST. Seriously? Banning for something like that is really rude and goes against every rule of netiquette I know. Plus, how anal do you have to be to keep friends and friends of the same? Anyway, that's my rant there.

I finished the step stool yesterday. Two passes of stain and three passes of poly. I'm super pleased with how it turned out, though as I said to Pete, it would have been a lot easier had we a good space for doing such work in. The garage, despite the fact that Pete frequently sweeps it, is still dustier than I'd like for finishing furniture. I'll post a pic later. I wish it was a little redder, as the can represented but the color is still very much to my liking. 

In comparison to the way most weekdays have been for me, this one seems like it will be pretty light. I'm certain I'll find a way to change that.:)

Straight from the orient...now, you're just bragging. :P

I like Teavana's Himalaya Majestic. It's the best black tea I've ever had. Which isn't saying much.

Speaking of old, I remember when Aaron was a baby! Oh, the days of #ratmm. ;)

Eh... I like the tea from there for certain, but I don't like that particular trip since he's usually gone for nearly 2 weeks. Tea is just the way to keep me from grumping about it too much.

Now I'll have to give the black tea a try when I'm in next.

15! He's just turned 15! And he's taller than me! And he eats every meal like it will be the last! And I can't stop using exclamation points!
