Someone

I was doing laundry today. The 2 best washers were closed, so I checked to be sure they had stuff in them. And they did, these welcome mats and possibly car mats.


I used some other washers. Eventually dried my clothes. Then I noticed the 2 washers were open. Hmm. I wonder "Did they hang the mats outside? I would. That dryer is awful loud for just one being on." I was wrong. They put the mats in the dryer! Ah, Jardine.

My Eyes

Recently I have been having problems with my vision. My contacts make my eyes red, but I can see. My glasses don't make my eyes red, but everything is blurry and hard to focus on. No matter which I wear I am extra-sensitive to light. It is really hard to drive the car sometimes because I can't keep my eyes open. But...I went to the eye doctor, and she gave me a prescription for these eye drops. She was just going to give me samples, but she had none. I need my eyes to fix so I didn't even ask if it would be expensive. I want to see.

So, I got it filled at Lafene and put some in my eyes. They aren't healed just yet, but I am supposed to use them for a week. The bottle is pretty small, only 5 mL of fluid. That really isn't much. But I am only using them for a week. The small bottle was $70.50. Wow.

But I learned something at the pharmacy today. My health insurace in GTA insurance and it costs 90$ a semester. Pretty cheap, usually has matching cheap-advantages. But they do pay for prescriptions, up to 7$ on monthly ones and then 250$ per year for others. Swell. This little bottle of tobradax almost cost as much as one semester of health insurance, but I didn't have to pay for it.

Looks like Summer

Allow me to explain this dark picture. It's spring break, almost the end of it. This looks a lot like summer however. We have 3 laptops and 2 tablets along with Chris' desktop hooked up and playing Civ IV. Sweet.

Toto's Tacos

Shannon enjoys a fish taco from Toto's Tacos.

It's in Wamego, about 20 minutes east of Manhattan. It was quite good and we may go back if we are driving that directions again.

That Kid



I just love my little niece. On Saturday, Shannon and I went to Wichita for 2 nights. It was short, but nice. I got to see my mom, both sisters, and my niece, plus Michelle! Even though there was some sadness involved and Maria did leave (for Cancun) it was a good time.


Ha! I put these pants on her head and she just kept them on. Eventually she rolled around too much and they fell off, but she didn't take them off herself.

Grandma had her throw away her diaper. She had the silliest grin on her face the whole way to the trash can. While we walked around New Market Square on Sunday, Jayme bought Nicole some cute sun-glasses. She would leave them on her face and open her mouth really wide when she had them on. It was very cute.

Goblin Huts I

I made some goblin huts before we came to Wichita for part of Spring Break. This is them before we spray painted them so I can paint them.




Then I made some barricades as well.

Transformations

Behold! I shall transform this pile of greens into a thing of beauty!


...


You're just gonna have to trust me on this one. I am done, in under 1.5 hours. It is beautiful, too.

(If our internet wasn't out, I could show you the pictures.)

The Dark Elves

So here are some pictures of my Dark Elves. For 100 points I have 5 spearmen with shields and 5 crossbowmen. I used a linoleum tile to make the slate for their bases. It worked pretty good.



Also, here is the finished tower I talked about last post. It isn't painted anything fancy, but it looks pretty evil. I sprayed it with this glossy sparkly spray paint we bought around Christmas time. Now it just needs to see a battle.

Dark Elf Tower


Shannon and I have been creating these tiny 100 point armies for Warhammer. My first one was a Dark Elf army. I painted the models a while ago, and then decided to make some scenery to match. I started this tower and am in the process of painting it. It's about 10" tall.

+1

To start off the nice weather (if it stays...) Shannon, Chris, and I played some campus disc golf. I got a +1 (not too bad). Shannon got -5. And Chris got -11. Way to go Chris! Also, that zip-tie bandit's work is still around. Check out the fork in the bush.
