Why, it’s bullet post Friday! Yay!

• The state of Wisconsin sent me new license plates late last month and today I put them on my car. The new license plates have different numbers/letters. This surprised me. I can understand sending new plates every decade or so, but why the different letters and numbers?
• I’ve listened to Apples in Stereo’s “New Magnetic Wonder” pretty much non-stop the last couple of days. Great record…the music sort of sat on my mp3 player until I got around to hearing it. Stupid me.
• Lentil soup from a GR recipe tomorrow night. I’ll hit the farmers’ market (the good one, not the local one) in the morning for supplies.
• I filled my car up at a gas station today where the owner pledged money for a new playground and tried to help local businesses by giving gas discounts if people bought in receipts from downtown stores. I like the owner. I’m buying my gas from him from now on.
• It’s Maritime Weekend here in Port. Shadow and I may walk down later to check out the tall ships.

• I’m about 150 pages into the Virgil. I’m digging the translation. You know what’s weird? I’m so used to reading late at night that I almost forget to read during the day when my wife and kids are gone.
• Everyone arrives home Sunday. I’m looking forward to their return. T has a new D and D adventure book waiting for him, S has the new Wii Madden, and N has a Clone Wars jetfighter or whatever. I’ll probably put the gifts on the boys’ beds.
• As usual I bought the Friday Wall Street Journal and NY Times. Today they cost a combined four bucks and twenty-five cents. What the fuck? Too much, too much, too much! Maybe I’ll alternate newspapers instead of buying both.
• I am scheduled for godfatherhood. Cool.
• I should ask that neighbor if he wants to hit the Ale House tomorrow.

More later!
