Wordle.net

Wordle.net is really fun and addictive and I think I will be heading back there regularly. You enter your text or your blog address and the program makes a cool word cloud. You can mess with shape and color and font. Crazy fun. (If you click on the images it takes you to larger images of these at wordle.net.)

my blog

this is the wordle for one of my favorite posts ever:
hysterical hanta virus infection!

Oh, yeah, apparently there was an earthquake this morning, 62 miles deep in the Cook Inlet.
158 miles SW of Anchorage.

I didn't feel anything, which is fine with me. I am not a fan of earthquakes.

Heck, I live in the heart of earthquake country ( the last two major US quakes were here in the San Fernando Valley) and I don't like 'em either.

Wasn't there a real big one back in the 60s up there? Made a whole bay disappear? Now, at least you won't be worrying about Hanta virus.

By the way, my sterling character won out. I went over and got 4 boxes and another stack of clothes while my wife was napping.

I am the King of all Nerds.

You like me! You really really like me!

Or maybe you just find me horribly annoying and are about to let me know. Go ahead, I can deal.

So, whatever, you know, leave a message. Thanks!!!

Okay -- updating my profile because I never removed the guinea pigs from it, even though they have been elsewhere for months.

Um...new obsession (HA) the elliptical trainer in the garage. I hate the thing, but today I burned 395 calories. I know. I so wanted to burn 5 more to make it an even 400, but then I would be at 50 minutes and 19 seconds, so I would have to make that round out to an even 51 minutes, and then the mileage could be rounded up to a more even number, and then the calories would be just a few away from 450, but then I could do just a few more seconds, then another few hundredths of a mile, and so on until finally I would fall off, hit my head, end up in the hospital with another nasty concussion, and gain weight because I am bedridden. It was so much easier to just burn the 395 calories.

We moved from the Sonoran desert of southern Arizona to the almost Arctic of Anchorage. I like the winters of Anchorage better than the summers of Tucson, so far.

Still have three kids, the oldest one is a freshman at the U of Arizona (dang it, now I will have to edit this again in a few months), the other two live on Fort Richardson with me and the dogs and the husband.

Other obsessions...my camera, my IPod Touch, my sewing machine. Fabric. Definitely fabric. Dishes. It's a thing females in my family have, an obsession with dishes. Pottery, and earthenware. Silver, definitely. Not crystal and china though. I am not a big fan of the fussy and overly ornate, and both crystal and china tend to fall into those categories, to me. Plus if I have delicate dishware, then I can't have the kids wash the dishes or put it in the dishwasher.

Other than that, I weigh too much, sleep too little, am very liberal, rabidly pro-choice, find it insane this country does not have universal health care, and think the world may be a better place with Obama at the helm. Oh, yeah, and chocolate. Much much chocolate.
