Year-old full-time researcher/ part-time grad student/ night-time calligrapher. With a new Italian last name just trying to make sense out of the funny things that occur in life. Welcome to my home! Niedziela, lutego 29, 2004. I finally read a book for FUN this weekend! I love reading- but rarely find the time to do so for pleasure). Pete and I picked up a copy of The Da Vinci Code. For those of you who have read it - what did you think? Posted by Barb @ 10:57 PM. Środa, lutego 18, 2004. I went to Cub Fo...

Clickie's Journal: another gelling thing!
http://clickie.livejournal.com/140122.html
21 February 2008 - 11:40 pm - another gelling thing! Adding to the list of plants used for gelling. I just found out that bracken fern rhizomes, in the family Dennstaedtiaceae. Woo! Looking at the list, I note that the Japanese must be really into gelled things. Traditional Japanese desserts use glutinous rice, bracken, konnyaku, agar, and kudzu.five of the nine. 2008-02-22 09:32 am (UTC). Cornstarch gells up nicely, but you've already got Poaceae. 2008-02-22 11:01 am (UTC). 2008-02-22 11:57 am (UTC).

Środa, listopada 26, 2003. I have a recurring (and very disturbing) nightmare in which all of my teeth fall out. So, I ask you, loyal readers, have you ever dreamt such nonsense about your teeth? If so, what were your dreams like? If not, what is your recurring nightmare? Happy reading. Ha! Shockingly, the gu...

Year-old full-time researcher/ part-time grad student/ night-time calligrapher. With a new Italian last name just trying to make sense out of the funny things that occur in life. Welcome to my home! Piątek, października 31, 2003. Don't ever say that I don't admit my mistakes. Pete said I should post this on my blog so that I'd feel better. A form of catharsis, perhaps? I am not sure what exactly happened; maybe I was annoyed with my immunization requirements, maybe I was pissed at the contractors, or may...

Poniedziałek, maja 24, 2004. Dude You know you live in pseudo-Wisconsin (or Kansas?

As we watched the clouds, another neighbor came running down t...

Piątek, grudnia 26, 2003. This year, Pete and I hosted Christmas Day dinner for my mom and dad, and for his parents, brother, and aunt/uncle (who are like grandparents). You know you are grown up when you actually have to cook food for people (I started peeling potatoes at 10:30 in the morning! My Dad showed ...

Year-old full-time researcher/ part-time grad student/ night-time calligrapher. With a new Italian last name just trying to make sense out of the funny things that occur in life. Welcome to my home! Wtorek, września 30, 2003. Sigh* I am not writing this to gain pity - but mainly to teach myself that there aren't more than 24 hours in a day, and since I need AT LEAST 5-6 hours of sleep each night, I really have only 18-19 hours of workable time. It is impossible to invent more time. The packing will get d...

Środa, marca 31, 2004. Ten things I learned (or re-learned) this past weekend:. 1 Alcohol causes people to act amusingly. 2 Djiboutians become riotous when their drug planes are late. 3 When asked nicely and offered food, people will sit in a cold garage.

Clickie's Journal: reading and TV correlation?
http://clickie.livejournal.com/138099.html
19 November 2007 - 09:33 pm - reading and TV correlation? From this NEA study. I guess I'm the exception that proves the rule? I must watch somewhere between 2-4 hours of TV a day, but I've already read 50 books this year. And passed my qualifying exam. 2007-11-20 05:58 am (UTC). 1 A difference of 24 minutes of TV a day doesn't really sound that significant. That's one Friends rerun. 2 12 books a year is a frequent reader? 2007-11-20 06:18 am (UTC). 2007-11-20 01:01 pm (UTC). 2007-11-20 11:24 pm (UTC).

Clickie's Journal: swarming bugs
http://clickie.livejournal.com/145065.html
24 January 2009 - 01:14 pm - swarming bugs. When it rains in California, weird bugs start swarming out of the ground. Usually it's just ants, but this storm has brought out some kind of gray swarming thing onto the patio:. Here's what one looks like at 10x magnification:. They ". come in a wide variety of decorator colors, including white, pink, yellow, green, orange, red, blue, and indigo." I'm not sure it makes me feel better to know that my swarms are tastefully colored. 2009-01-24 09:29 pm (UTC).
