Sure Sign of a Crappy Week

You know it's been a crappy week when . . . you walk up to the pharmacy counter at a Super Target (after waiting in line for 10 minutes) and the cashier says: "Oh, you're back again. It's Crain, right?"

Yep. Crappiest week ever.

Here's hoping that the newest prescription kicks in quickly.

Photo Tag

I decided to shock everyone and actually respond to Lara's "tag" to post the sixth photo from the sixth folder in my photos. And here it is . . .

View across False Bay from Boulders Beach in South Africa

Since the picture isn't very exciting, I decided to post a few other pictures from the same folder.

Jackass penguin at Boulders Beach.


Nate and me at the Cape of Good Hope.


Wild ostrich in Cape Peninsula National Park.

Looking at these pictures makes me want to go back to Africa. Anyone want to join me?!

Remember when...

* Pete had a mullet?
* Tim was shorter than the rest of us?
* Big, round glasses were in style?
* All the girls had bangs?
* Chewing gum was considered major rebellion?

Do you have anything else to add to the list?

I love RED! (Can you tell?)

After much nagging from AnnaLisa, I finally decided to quit procrastinating and to update my blog. Below are pictures of my lovely new living room furniture.

Which Sounds Like More Fun?

What I did today . . .
  1. Researched whether a business plan is considered to be "property" for purposes of Section 721 of the Internal Revenue Code.
  2. Ate sushi for lunch.
  3. Drafted a letter to a client explaining why a settlement payment is deductible.
  4. Researched whether a charitable organization must take into account the fair market value of facilities provided rent free when determining whether it is a publicly supported charity.
  5. Rode the bus home.
  6. Watched American Idol.

What I did two years ago today . . .

New Glasses

So I was very brave and picked out new glasses all by myself. What do you think?!


Here's a close up where you can see the red--just like Emma's glasses :o)
