Talking on Skype while cooking dinner

Ben was talking to Charlie on Skype and I had to move the conversation into the kitchen so I could finish making dinner. I love laptops.

Ben needs a hat... and a helmet

Ben likes wearing my cowboy hats. He also likes putting buckets on his head like a helmet and run around.

Mmm... Cookie

Yes, that is what I want Give me cookie.

I truly lose myself when I read books. My surroundings and time all seem to fade away until they are mere ambient senses. Minutes fly by as seconds. I have been reading a book while I have been riding the train into work. I have to pull myself away every so often to make sure that I have not missed my stop. The book that I have been reading tends to invite me to visualize some concepts or experiments. Once in a while I will look up to do these mental experiments and the faces and number of people on the train will have completely changed since I had sat down. I am also a very slow reader. I am not sure if that is because or adds to my getting engrossed in the book. I can set a book down for days or weeks and by reading the last sentence be able to pick right back up where I left off.

He's got Boots!?

I went and got Flu shots today. While I was waiting in line, I was asked a couple of computer questions, and then when I sat down for the shot, the nurse asked if while I was there I could fix what was wrong with her phone (just had to go in the menu and take it off hands free answer). After the shots she put this sticker on me, and as I was walking out, someone in line shouted out, "He's got Boots!" Then she asked if I could tell she has kids.

Anniversary

Lisa and my anniversary was on Sunday. We went to dinner and a movie. For dinner went to a place called Bravo in the Galleria Mall. It was our first time at this restaurant, but we really liked this place. It is going to be one of our favorites. I gave her a necklace at dinner. The Regal theater is right around the corner in the mall from Bravo, so we wandered around the mall for a while and then went to see the movie Where the Wild Things Are. It was a enjoyable night.

Wii would like to play...

I was getting ready to weigh myself on the Wii Fit and Ben grabbed the controller and got up on the balance board.

Baking a Cake
