WELL. If you ever want a fun time at home with the family, go out and buy yourself two different sets of computer speakers. Set them up with your laptop at the kitchen table and have everybody stand or sit in the living room while you swap back and forth between the speakers. They can't know which speakers you've got plugged in at any given moment. Say, "Do you like Speaker A?....[while Ladysmith Black Mambazo sings, 'rain, rain, rain, rain, beautiful rain']...or do you like Speaker B? A..........or B?" Good conversation will ensue, including people being paranoid that they're selecting the cheapies over the nice speakers. Turns out that people choose Bose speakers over Philips five to one.
In other household news, Molly had her teeth cleaned today. She's Mom's Schnauzer that Luke lovingly calls "Little Gray Turd." No amount of insults can stop Molly from yipping day and night, which is how she has earned her nickname. Jason just emerged from the bathroom with a newly-tamed beard. I guess everyone is going for improvements lately. Other than Mom, who got her toenail ripped off a couple days ago. And Gunther, another of the dogs who is currently eating dirt out of a planter.
So I guess we're all at different points along our journeys.
