And now for an irrational thing that delights me. While taking the (very) scenic route home, seeing a houseboat called YESDEAR. I've got photographic evidence should it be needed, but a lot of google-fu turned up the probable details for it...

Quote:
YESDEAR Built by LIVERPOOL BOATS - Length 17.37 metres (57 feet ) - Beam 2.08 metres (6 feet 10 inches ) - Draft 0.61 metres (2 feet ) Metal hull, power of 42. Registered with British Waterways number 513038 as a Powered. Last registration recorded on 11-Apr-2010.
Even better that it comes from Liverpool.

My sister-in-law's kids.

They can certainly be irritating at times, but they're so delightful too, more delightful than irritating.

Amusingly worded headlines

such as today on the BBC:


Solar plane set for night flight
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/science_a...t/10324258.stm

without reading the article, it sounds like an ultimate fail

Timing it just right so you step off the moving walkway/flat escalator thing at the airport without breaking stride
I did it at Schiphol on Monday and was so happy, I looked around for the admiration of the other travelers - no-one else seemed to be as impressed as I was

Relaxing and watching TV, then having a cat jump into your lap, curl up into a ball, and fall asleep purring loudly. There's not much better than that.

Also, being sent home from work at 9:30am due to a large gas leak near the school. So large in fact, they're not sure if the school will be open tomorrow. Fingers crossed!
