Certainly a lot of weather we've been having lately...

For the past 2 weeks we have seen everywhere from 70 degrees and clear to 38 degrees and clear and 50-60 degrees and raining like mad. We woke up to a dark and gloomy day, but I felt better than I have in a couple of weeks because yesterday we bought a humidifier. For the past couple of weeks, I've been waking up all dry and parched. I plugged in the Humidifier and it said that we were at 21%!! No wonder I felt all dry and cracked and parched and Janey's been all kinds of itchy. The weather has been pretty mild compared to what it could be.

I really like it here. There are 2 things that I really don't like about Ohio. I don't like that our families are far away. I wish they were here with us. I also don't like the damn smoking in restaurants.

Rant on...

I hate it when I'm in the middle of a meal, and I'm really enjoying the flavors of whatever I'm eating, and some inconsiderate ass lights up in the middle of the non-smoking section (At least that's where we asked to be seated...) and starts puffing away. Now all I can taste is smoke, all I can smell is smoke. My food now has no meaning to me, and all I want to do is get out of there. I miss the whole no-smoking indoors thing in California.

rant off...

I like going to museums...

Today was a holiday, so the Yates-Nebbler Fellowship (The one that pays Janey to go to school) had an event where we went to the "National Underground Railroad Freedom Center" We heard from the Dean of the Graduate school at UC. And also the Nebbler of the Yates-Nebbler Fellowship. Then we went on an abriviated tour of the center (Like any of the Smithsonian museums, this place would take a day to "See" everything, but even longer to learn most of the lessons held here...) that lasted around 90 minutes, then back to our meeting room so we could eat a catered meal. It was hors d'voers. Tasty stuff. Been a while since I had a sweedish meatball. Then back on a bus to head back to where we left the car. Very inspirational museum. I know another place that we are taking our out-of-town visitors.
