Jeffy, Tim and I really liked the feel of the Tempurpedic Rhapsody (I didn't like the one with cooling because it felt too cold to me) but in the end we decided to get a latex bed for the following reasons. (1) I bought a pillow from Tempurpedic and couldn't use it (because of the smell) for 2 months. Tim was able to use it after a couple of weeks but I am more sensitive to smells. The first couple of weeks, I had to keep it in the guest room because it made the room so smelly. I can't imagine what would happen with an entire bed. (2) People have complained that the Tempurpedic mattresses are as well made as they used to be. (3) They don't completely divulge what the mattress is made from and what the weights of the foam are. (3) They were more expensive than their competition (even some of the quality latex mattresses). (4) Complaints of mold on some of them (although this may be because of user error). If it is not too far to drive, I would check out Foam Sweet Foam which is where I plan to get my next mattress if my life ever settles down. http://www.foamsweetfoam.com/latex

Glad you were able to get it working again for the short term. I hate when you can't get people you want to hire to do something to call you back (I've been trying to get someone to fix the flashing on some pipes on the roof for weeks. I guess it doesn't help that we keep having heavy thunderstorms.

I used to do that but they annoyed me. I guess I probably should start doing that again.

Unfortunately, I already use google calendar and Zoe was on there. I just forget to look at it sometimes, especially on the weekends and in the summer months. Also, google calendar isn't going to help me book flights correctly.

The blue looks really nice.

Very cool Chris. Sorry Nate, that really sucks - 5 years isn't very long. What I didn't do today: fly to my parents' house like I was supposed to. I accidentally bought two one way tickets from Houston to Ontario, Ca, one for today and one for Tuesday (no return flight). Since I was using my parents' Southwest miles, I decided to cancel the trip and go some other time (since getting a new flight back on Tuesday would more costly at this point). Luckily I was flying SW and not United. The good news is that I get to avoid Knott's Berry Farm on Memorial Day which would have been a mad house. I can also use the time to catch up more on work. The bad news is that I feel like I am going crazy. I keep forgetting about shit and screwing things up (ever since Tim passed away). I would never have done something so stupid in the past. I also forgot about the Zoe Keating concert I had ticket s to last weekend.

Happy Birthday Brent!!!

Fuckers

Happy Birthday Raffy!

^That picture is full of win.

Coconut cream pie is good. Not getting the job is maybe not so good (depending on the job).

I am excited but sad at the same time. Tim really loved True Detective and was looking forward to the next one. I'm going to try and watch it but it may still be too difficult at this point. Tim loved detective shows/movies (Poirot was his all time favorite) and so I have been mostly avoiding them.

Done

Turns out it was an out of state plate with the same license plate #.

I am about to hit the order button on these. Any reason not to? [i am not sure I need a pair of closed headphones since I live by myself now but it can't hurt. Perhaps it would be useful to have in the office when the students are loud outside my office door. ] I would be very interested to know how it compares to the HD600 (and whether it is more neutral than the HD600).

I probably should just pay it but I am annoyed. Actually, the bill is sent to Tim. It would cost a lot more to send it to my lawyer so that he could send it to the other lawyer though.

No, I am waiting to speak to an agent. I think I can request a picture of the plate.

Speaking of Austin, I got a bill from the Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority (i.e. Austin toll billing agency) for driving on a toll road in Austin in March. I certainly do not remember driving to Austin so either someone is stealing and taking my "fancy" 2004 Honda Accord for a joyride Austin or I have been sleepdriving (and sleep filling up the gas tank). Weird. I hope I don't find any scorpions in the backseat.

In your house??? I am never moving to Austin.

Seems more like medium to me.

^Want that too!.

Please fax

I love your outlook on life Mike.

Just finished changing the filters and sanitizing my 5 stage water filtration system. What a pain (I guess I only had to do half the work before). I think I'll just get water delivered when I move to a new place.
