More nature news from outside my office building. Aren’t you relieved that these pictures aren’t from inside my office building? 🙂
We’ve had a number of these large, fuzzy caterpillars waltzing around outside, so today I snapped a picture. My husband complains that there’s no scale in these photos – sorry. This guy is about 2 inches long.
View a video of him on the move here. Someone should set it to music!
I *love* looking at my wedding pictures. Yes, it’s been 4 years but I felt like a princess that day! Maybe if I had more opportunities in a year to do that, I wouldn’t obsess, but that’s just how it is. Here, unrequested then, are some of my favorite wedding photographs.
It was only 2 miles, but hubby and me went for a bike ride after we got home last night! Woot!
Last night we went to see The Break-Up at the $1.50 movie theatre. I love that place, even though it can be kinda sketchy after 9PM.
I really liked this movie! It was funny and I cried a little and the ending wasn’t totally predictable. I loved seeing Jason Bateman and Vincent D’Onofrio. Good job, Vince!
Watching the movie triggered these old memories of the heart-wrenching trauma I went through with old boyfriends in college. Having conversations while sobbing, shouting out irrational ultimatums, counting on girlfriends to be there for you whenever you need a shoulder to cry on. It was weird feeling all of that all over again, now that I’m in a very stable and happy relationship with my husband. Strange.
Dave just IM’d me and said that we’re either going to take a bike ride tonight, or go watch a movie. We’re reclaiming those weekday evenings!! I love it!
This morning I got a chance to see a planarian eat a worm. Totally disgusting.
#1. Planarian surrounds worm with its entire body. It secrets a digestive enzyme and starts to eat the worm with its mouth, which is located in the middle of its body.
#2. A close-up of the comingled worm and planarian. The worm is not long for this world.
#3. The planarian leaving the scene of the crime.
#4. Is the planarian’s mouth sticking out?
#5. All that’s left of the worm.
Weird, last night there was an Adam-clone at our restaurant. Can you tell which is the real Adam Gates?
Saturday night Dave, Granma, Mom & Gene went to Angus Barn to celebrate Granma’s birthday. We ate more than we could stand, starting with lots of oysters.
Here’s Granma and me after we’d stuffed ourselves:
Here’s my dinner, the 24-oz T-Bone (or was that 42-oz?)
And here’s the damage I did.
Afterwards we came home and had a fresh pot of coffee, vanilla ice cream, and a fabulous 4 layer cake that Dave made for us. Yummy!
