Where I've Been

I was gone from my home for 12 days and 11 nights. During that time, I managed to see my parent and parent-in-laws and step-parent-in-law and significant-other-of-parent-in-law. Before I start, I don't have my pictures from Wichita because we forgot to burn them off of Rhonda's computer....

We went to Wichita first to surprise Mom for Mother's Day with a nice dinner at Larkspur. It was nice to see her happy and to spend some time with her. We went shopping too and left Sunday night.

In Garden, we took Rhonda to eat at Pho Ha. It was pretty good. We also got an oil change and watched some distant lightening. We left on Wednesday since no one was nice enough to cover for Michelle a work on Tuesday night.

On the way up, you may have seen, I finished another skein of yarn! I am actually almost done with this third skein now, but I still have a bit left in it.
Look at the Snotvia, it's done.
The other thing is the bottom of the skull and crossbones.


When we finally made it to Colorado, we ate at Johnny Carino's and then went back to Gary and Linda's. Johnny Carino's is an okay Italian restaurant. They do give you free refills of Italian cream or regular Italian sodas though. That is awesome.

Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich

I really like ice cream cookie sandwiches. But I don't really ever eat them. I just go up to the cooler, point to it and say "Ice cream cookie sandwich..." Well, Shannon, the stud, got me one! He was getting a movie with family from redbox and I told him that one sounded good so he got me one from the convince store behind the redbox! Mmm...it was good!

You can't really tell what this is. But I'll tell you. It's the second pirate we saw in Boulder. This guy had a hat, a coat, a large flag, and some other life essentials including a rascal.

The first pirate we saw was just walking around. Hat, boots, coat, the walk and all. He was about as pirate as our costumes get. But I think that was his normal attire, not a costume.

To Co Part 2

I've gotten a lot of knitting done recently. At Chris' graduation, I finished the Snotvia. Since then, I've completed my second skeins and began the crossbones, and skull. It is a pretty big bag. With each round I get more and more excited about finishing it!

To Co Part 1

On our way to Colorado, we stopped at Colby's Oasis truck stop. It's a pretty funny place. Take that blonde kid. She sang about her chicken nuggets and danced with her potato chips. In the background are some nuns thrilled to be getting ice cream, but unable to operate the automatic door.

That's Right...well...wrong actually


The correct answer to the first one was 69.3. And you had to show your work (and the second was yes). Besides this, the student's been a good student.

She is that cool

I'm sitting here still studying. Every so often I look up to see random pictures from my screen saver. I see this one of Grandma Fuller smiling and I smile back. Then I notice the sweet, sweet sticker on her sweater.

It's kinda cute

I like to write down things in my notes during class that are comical or out of the ordinary. Then when I go through my notes, as I now am, I see these things and laugh. This time I found the symbol to the right drawn in my notes, a normal way to express an estimate of theta. Well, the thing above it is called a tilde. Dr. Yang, my Stat Theory II teacher called it "a little wiggle."

How cute!

Do you have a chi-square table?


This morning at 7:30 am about 240 students sat in Umberger 105 taking the STAT 325 final. This isn't all the sections. There are 16 in total with 40 students in each!

No Trash

That's the trash can in the women's bathroom at the new Manhattan Starbucks. And that's right, it politely asks you to not use it.
