OK, new news. First, as of tomorrow, I start my 3 week stretch where my wife is 10 years younger than me. Do I feel old? Honestly, only when I wake up. Most of the time, I feel at least 10 years younger than I am. I'm not in great shape, but I still think it's possible to get in a little better shape than I am now. Especially since...

We FINALLY had an offer accepted on a house and it's less than 2 miles from my work! We bid a little higher than I wanted to, but the sellers accepted the offer. It is a short sale, so the bank still has to approve it, but I think we're OK. It's a 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms single story house with a HUGE kitchen. It may take several weeks before the bank approves it, so we might not be in the house until late August, early September. But, YAY! WOO HOO! ETC ETC!!

Below is Harley Quinn, our Green-Cheeked Conure

To the left, you’ll see Drusilla,
the Vampire Parakeet, named after
a character on Buffy the Vampire Slayer,
because she bit like a vampire.
She passed away on 12/20/04.
