Chinooks are flipping loud, two just flew over my house at quite a low altitude and the sound was enough to trigger every car and house alarm in the area, I thought they would be quieter then they were. Now I want to know what they were doing... guess I will never know.

Chinook sounds like it sould be someone of Chinese-Canadian descent.  :D

Does have an "inukshuk" feel to it.

Just found a sweet new (albeit slightly, uh, redneck) ride for Tank:

I had fillet steak, rare, with minted new potatoes, asparagus tips and hollandaise sauce.  :P

New potatoes and asparagus with hollandaise....*drool*

I'm leaving tomorrow to go to South Carolina for a wedding.  Be back on Sunday.  Probably won't be on at all the next several days.

I thought you already had a husband? Does he know about this new one?

*Snort*  You know me, I pick up husbands like some people pick up cat hair and lint.   ;)

LOL
No, the happy groom is hubby's best friend.  He was the best man in our wedding, and hubby is a groomsman in this wedding.  The bride is a lovely lady that we like a lot.  Happy occassion!

I know stupid of me really, but damn it was surprising I live kind of close to an airport so I hear planes and choppers often but the sound was insane especially in a generally quite residential area.

Doing: giving us vague/unhelpful criticism and complaints about our son. "He doesn't like going outside sometimes. He doesn't like napping sometimes. Sometimes he cries a lot." They keep saying these things as though we are supposed to do something about it, but I have no idea what. He's 22 months old! We aren't there when these things are happening! What can we do? We've taught him to be gentle/follow instructions as best we can, but what can we do if he gets moody because he's hitting  the terrible twos and we're not there?

Not doing: Giving us our receipts. They owe us receipts since the end of December and we've been asking for them for two and a half weeks (almost every day), but they still haven't given them to us.  And we NEED them. >:(

That's hard. We had the same sort of issue a littel earlier in the year with T's preschool ("sometimes he  wanders off to the bathroom without telling anyone.  Sometimes he doesn't want to do the craft activity.")  It's hard enough with a 3 year old that can understand and remember a little better.
