It looks like you have a nicer pen. Have you tried using Noodler'sInk with a plunger-type refill? A better quality ink is easier on your pen, and the colors are fun, too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-5756396470392953622011-05-21T00:53:53.351-04:002011-05-21T00:53:53.351-04:00Charlene...rainy days??? ;)

Our kids have their own and it's done in Spongebob.

Our daughter arranged it all for our wedding anniversary.<br /><br />We stayed in a lovely hotel near Hyde Park, saw The Lion King at the Lyceum Theatre, shopped a lot, and called in on the IRS people at the US Embassy to apply for my ITIN. We had the best time and I didn't even know Blogger was down! :)David Bridgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14124411458543045744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-13783478096776562612011-05-19T21:41:47.974-04:002011-05-19T21:41:47.974-04:00I just had a similar experience to the blogger fai...I just had a similar experience to the blogger fail - the power went out during a serious thunderstorm, and I was without Internet access for many hours. As a work-from-home dude who writes and delivers content via the Internet - I was dead in the water. So I did the only logical thing. I went to sleep.<br /><br />It may seem goofy, but if I can't work at noon, I know I'll be working at midnight to catch up on the lost time. The nap was practical, and stress free. Definitely the way to go when times get tough.Jamie Becketthttp://facebook.com/BurritosAndGasolinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-71755463911655337662011-05-19T15:31:43.871-04:002011-05-19T15:31:43.871-04:00Your black bird with red shoulders was most likely...Your black bird with red shoulders was most likely a red-winged blackbird.

I recently painted our guest bathroom plum and it has green accents...it is one of my favorite rooms in our home now. <br />During the Great Blogger Fail we made and decorated 250 wedding cake cookies and made almost 1000 white chocolate mints for my son's wedding reception this Saturday. <br />Have a wonderful day!<br />JenniferJennifer and Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531190507371414708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-45471086273033488282011-05-19T02:53:29.911-04:002011-05-19T02:53:29.911-04:00"That day we also saw a strange little blackb...<i>"That day we also saw a strange little blackbird with bright red shoulders, but she was too quick for my camera.</i> That was a red-winged blackbird.

...I wonder if that was a red-shouldered blackbird?<br /><br />I just recently learned that yellow-headed blackbirds, like this dude, exist: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow-headed_Blackbird<br /><br />Nothing quite like the guy coming home and saying, hey, I saw this bird at work, that looked like it had a parakeet's head and a blackbird body, what's it called?<br /><br />And having to admit that, despite having lived in this town, I'd never seen, or heard of, such a thing. <br /><br />The bird was a slight bit out of his regularly territory, so I forgave myself that - but I'd really like to have seen such an unique-looking creature.shawnahttp://tenacitydivine.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-39292000092892724682011-05-19T01:25:29.406-04:002011-05-19T01:25:29.406-04:00The bathroom looks cool.
