America America
There's this Beethoven tune, and it's the national anthem, see. Yeah, that "my country tis of thee" one. And for the life of me, I can't find out what Beethoven song that's based on. I did find one website that said that Beethoven ripped off our national anthem (which is actually Holland's national anthem too). I highly doubt this. Beethoven was a stand up guy. It would be a little obvious if he stole from a national anthem of two different countries.
Low Temperature
I live in the south. Here, we have four distinct seasons: Fall, Rain, Spring, and Furnace. We don't really have a cold cold winter. But guess what the low temperature for Sunday is?

That doesn't even look like a temperature. It's just some random integer. Heck, it's one of the main prime numbers. I mean, once you get north of 17, all the prime numbers are just crap. One, two (overrated), three and five are the really heavy players as far as prime numbers go.
Breakfastyness
Normally, meaning every single day, I have powdered protein in milk for breakfast. It's about 430 calories and 60 grams of protein. This overloading of protein allows me to have a little flexibility as far as where my calories come from at lunch, such at drinking 700 calories of super low glycemic grapefruit juice.
But today, I'm out of protein and I haven't even ordered some off the internet. (I get EAS protein from DPI Nutrition.) And I didn't make up any grapefruit juice for lunch, which is just as well since without the protein in the morning, I should really eat peanut butter from a jar with a plastic spoon. Yes, I am a mutant.
To deal with breakfast today, I headed out with cash in hand and decided to stop by McDonald's and get one of their sad little breakfast burritos. Actually two. But Mickey D's was lousy with cars this morning, so I hopped down the road to Hardee's (or if you are from the other dimension, you'd see this as Carl Jr).
I got a Loaded omelet Biscuit. It was like eating food from some other country. It rocked, sure, but what the heck was it in there. A paste made of ham and bacon? Was that cheese mixed with bacon, into a paste? Well, it was very good. Nutritionally retarded, yes, but tasty. Mmm.
Nina
Oh, yeah, my daughter. She's sick. We ate some blueberry yogurt and apple and watched Baby Beethoven before Alison got home. Once Alison got home, she wanted to be held by Alison and was fussing about something. When Alison, holding Nina, walked into the bedroom, Nina arced away from Alison. She does this when she wants to go to be put in her crib, pronto. So, Nina went to sleep around 5:20 last night. I managed to get showered and dressed without waking them up, except for asking Alison if my black cargo pants (they're really super dark green) were clean. So, Neen slept at least 13 hrs straight.
