But aside from that, she's still completely normal

Question – blue whales

July 25, 2009 By Michele Leave a Comment

Another one from Amy! And my guess is… It’s from her 3 1/2 year old.

What do Blue Whales eat?

According to Wikipedia – not only is it the largest animal to have existed, “it eats almost exclusively of small crustaceans known as krill.”

Now you know. And can pass it on to curious kids.

A Question on Solar Panels

July 25, 2009 By Michele 1 Comment

My friend Amy – yes, the same one – asked me some more questions. Some of this stuff is just not what I would normally write about, but hey. Content is content when you’re getting through the night.

She asked (again via Facebook):

Will solar power REALLY save you $$?

I haven’t the faintest clue. First off – don’t get on me about the environment here. We’re talking simply about dollars and cents. Not environmental impact.

And after reading about it – I have no idea what to conclude. There seems to be a debate about the whole thing. Basically – you won’t save money until you double what you spent to set it up. And you’ll spend a lot. I’ve gone around and around, and I can’t figure it out. Maybe my brain cells are just depleting. Here’s an argument FOR it and here’s an argument AGAINST the money thing.

Quick Break

July 25, 2009 By Michele Leave a Comment

I’m having a quick break while I finish dinner, and get started on the next post.

This is what happens when you don’t have a plan. Sigh.

But I do have more coming up. Still working on the videos, and have some more questions from friends to answer. I’ll make it. We’re more than half way through!!

Blogathon would go great without my parents

July 25, 2009 By Michele 1 Comment

Really quick so I can get it in at 8 –

I just spent the last half hour trying to explain why Bleach, a show on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim, is inappropriate for my oldest son.

I had to use the words 9 year old, cartoon, and panties in the same sentence. That should never happen.

Considering I grew up with the Smurfs, I understand why my 77 year old mother doesn’t get it, but sheesh! I’m trying to do blogathon here. And with THAT – I’m grabbing my dinner.

Swimsuit Shopping

July 25, 2009 By Michele Leave a Comment

As I mentioned before, I really need a new swimsuit. The two suggestions I got were to check out Land’s End, and Target.

I did check out Land’s End – and I liked them, especially for their super gut sucking capabilities. Unfortunately, they’re a little out of my price range at the moment.

As for Target, I came down to 1. This one. That’s it, for various reasons.

I’m going to check out some other stores too – I have Amazon Prime, so I can potentially get free second day shipping, which would be nice.
