Man, it’s been a long two/three weeks. I have been fighting fires at work and in my personal life. It’s been crazy. My experience last week is just a sampler!

I’m on call this week, and it does seem like we are looking at another crazy week. There’s a celestial object that is in X-ray outburst and may be observed this week with our telescope. We’re waiting to see if the scientists are going to trigger their TOO (target-of-opportunity) and if they do, the week is shot to hell. Oh well.

I got time this weekend to finish Luna’s dress. I want her to wear it for Purim. It’s a princess dress for a costume, but it should hold up better than most costumes. It came out really well. I hope to post some pictures of it after Purim. Now Soleil wants HERS done (I started making two of them) and I had to run out tonight to get the fabric for the skirt. I under estimated the amount of fabric I would need because the pattern specifies the fabric for the dress AND a cape. Screw the cape. As Edna says in "The Incredibles", NO CAPES!

Still trying to find a sitter for April 5th. The Sabres are in town and the next day is my birthday, so I would love to go to the game. The trick is getting a sitter!

We bought a play set for the kids this weekend. It will be installed in May. This will bring on another post about how horrible I am as a parent…

Okay, gotta run, but I think I am back in the blogging spirit!
