something i DID accomplish today.....
....went apple picking at Beak & Skiff farms in Lafayette. Not my idea but a good one. i went with my new pal Megan. it was her idea and it almost didnt happen, since i got out of work a bit later than i planned (i'm already in overtime and i had a short day) and we went the wrong way on rt. 20, AND megan had to be at work at 4. it was a beautiful day--70's, calm, sunny--in comparison to the cold ass rainy weather we've been having. i've never been apple picking and it was really cool. at one point i wasnt sure what variety we were picking, so subconciously i was looking for the little sticker on the apples that gives you the PLU and name. guess they dont put those stickers on there til they go to the supermarket (ha ha.) We got a bunch of empires and mccouns (sp?)--never had either before but they are really good. the jeep is running great. oh, by the way, that's the CJ-8 the name refers to. check out www.cj-8.com to see what the heck it is. i dont have a picture of mine to post yet. it was up on one of mark's old sites, but it got tossed. mark makes reference to it on circa1977 BUT he went and screwed that site all up and i can't find his archives.
ooh....uma thurman coming up on conan...no, i dont think she's all that but she'll be talking about Kill Bill....
