Unique Rabbit

Wind and driving rain. Ahhh, Monday. At least it isn’t snow, right? Right?

My brother-in-law bought a Nintendo magazine over the weekend because they just got a GameCube. I don’t know that I was aware such a thing existed, but with Christmas looming, I grabbed it to peruse the potential gifts. One thing they had was a page dedicated to Animal Crossing, which we haven’t really played regularly since I stopped being unemployed. It’s the kind of game you have to play all the time, mainly because you don’t want to miss any special festivals and fun stuff, have weeds take over town or have your house become overrun with cockroaches. That’s right, you miss too many days in a row and your house gets cockroaches.

Well, we didn’t play most of the summer, which stinks because there are fish and bugs that you can only get in the summer (you want to get one of each for the museum, plus you can sell anything you catch.) But looking at the magazine, we realized that it has a whole Halloween element that we didn’t know about – special Halloween furniture! Halloween clothes! Candy for sale at Tom Nooks to give to Trick-or-Treaters! So Junior and I got all excited about the game again and actually played for a few minutes this morning. We have plans to play again tonight when we got home. Who says we don’t know how to have fun?

Oh, about the post title:

Q: How do you catch a unique rabbit?

A: Unique up on it.

Q: How do you catch a tame rabbit?

A: Tame way, unique up on it!

Worst License Plate Ever

I didn’t see this one personally, and it’s probably good because I would have driven off the road laughing.

“PAP SMR”

Gah. Had to be a guy, cause even a female Gyno wouldn’t put PAP SMR on her license plate. Ever.

And It’s Not Even My Birthday!

I’d like to thank the Florida Marlins for the early birthday present. I know my birthday isn’t until January (in case you’re looking, here’s my Amazon wishlist. Buying me the expensive stuff earns you more brownie points than the spatula, just FYI.

Oh, so anyway, great game, I hope Beckett wins the Cy Young just based on last night’s game. That was a thing of beauty, and I was particularly thrilled when he got the third out in the 9th on his own. Good game boys.

Blogrolling Hates Me

I like that my blog is listed on blogrolling as “recently updated” but when I look at my blogroll, it isn’t actually listed as updated. It either is or it isn’t, right? And I can get the pinger to work from my home machine but not from work. Very odd. So this pointless post is just to update my blog to see if I can actually get the site to appear as “updated”.

Weekend Planning

I’m not sure what my plans are for the weekend. There are a lot of things to do, but at this very second, I don’t feel like doing anything. I have high hopes that this will change by tomorrow, but giving the nature of my blah’s (let’s put it this way – I’ve been craving chocolate the past few days) who knows. But the weather forecast looks delightful, and it’s down to the “this could be the last good weekend until next year so we have to enjoy it!” time of year.

This weekend at Sholan Farm in Leominster they are having a scarecrow contest. We haven’t ever been to this but I heard it’s fun. Of course, to participate you have to have your scarecrow completed at delivered to them by 2:00pm tomorrow. The rules, while simple, are all online. There’s always Marshall Farm in Fitchburg, where we can spend $4 for an all-day pass for the moonwalks. This can kill an hour MINIMUM, and exhaust the kid at the same time! They’re also having a big Halloween “party” on Saturday. How to choose!!!

Sunday we have our choice of two different Halloween parades to attend, although we’ve done the one in Littleton for the past 4 years or so. Why mess with tradition?
