I was just checking the perimeter and my male dove called out to me, which I thought was strange since he usually does that in the daytime when he's hungry.
So I went and had a look and it turns out one of the females has had a couple of chicks.
The male was walking around with his wings up, proud dad. :-)

Scaring myself awake with jellyfish movies on YouTube.

On my lunch break at work. Writing a proto-list -- a list of things for which I need lists of ingredients. Hate to start making a tiramisu on Christmas morning and discover that I had forgotten the mascarpone cheese or the lady's fingers...

Getting a pedicure while listening to an Iron Maiden / Black Sabbath / Beatles / Clash / Bob Marley mix. Hoping I don't die from a toothache before I see the dentist tomorrow.

Remember, once you're comfortably seated in the dentist's chair, grab him by the balls and say, "If you hurt me, I hurt you!"

Reading about plans for a new football stadium. Fighting off a nap.

Making an end-grain (all the pieces of wood present the end grain to the knife) cutting board for the wife. The wood all squirmed around during the gluing up (expected), so I had to make a sled to use my router on to flatten it. The router bit was dull, so it made a rough surface that required 40 grit sandpaper in my belt sander to smooth it. I'm up to 80 grit sand paper now. The dust is unbelievable. This got interrupted by the cable guy coming to make my internet faster.
