ratatosk visited, which was nifty. And we ended up going out to Pt. Reyes, which I'm too tired to look up the spelling of. That was very, very pretty. Eventually I expect there will be photos. There were seals, which I couldn't really see, even with binoculars, but most people would be able to. I was, however, able to hear them. There was water. There were ( Read more... )

So, I thought of an idea for a tax model. I know very little about economics or taxes, so I suspect there may be lots of flaws I haven't thought of, but I don't know what they are, feel free to enlighten me.

I have an idea for a children's toy. I don't want to go into details. But it needs to be made. It'll be somewhat fun, and potentially vastly educational. Sadly, I cannot just go and make it.

Now I need to try to figure out how I can get it made.

I went out to a movie with my SO. We saw The Mummy Returns. Not because either of us thought it'd be good but because he wanted to see the neat pretty effects and we both thought it'd be nice to go out and do something, since we go out so rarely. Well, it was cute at times, but not in any way a good movie. I spent a lot of it trying to just think ( Read more... )
