The bottle opener is kind of in the space right behind the clippers. You know, the clippers are offset? You just kinda wedge the bottle in there and pull down.

The devildeacs gave Georgia the Wonderdog a little chew/play toy version of Mr. Bill. Press his belly, and Mr. Bill says OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Georgia likes biting and flinging Mr. Bill. I think that means she likes it.
Many thanks, devildeacs!!

My goal this winter (starting next week) is to get to the mountains every weekend. It won't happen, but if I strive, I'll increase the trips I make. In that vein, I received both a ski pass (unlimited to Keystone, Breckenridge, and Arapahoe Basin) and a new pair of snowshoes. Looking to go snoeshoeing next weekend and snowboarding the week after. And, I already booked a long weekend in Keystone for President's Weekend.

I am still contemplating my reviews of Bigfoot 2005 and 2006, Founders Backwoods Bastard and Samichlaus 2004 and 2006. Should happen tomorrow.

Perhaps you'll watch a bball game together on 3/6 at 9 p.m. EST or EDT*. It'll be on ESPN out there.

*That's a Saturday and we'll either have switched back to daylight savings time the end the previous weekend at of February or will that Sunday morning, so don't miss the game. :D

The typical schedule for one of those meetings is:

700-730: breakfast
730-930: lectures
930-430: break ( :)) =)) )
430-630: apres ski/lectures (aka as "nap time" for moi)
630-????: on your own (aka "beer tasting and review" and dinner)

I received both Grammar Girl books, "Quick and Dirty Tips For Better Writing" and "The Grammar Devitional". Have already benefited from using these books. :D :D :D

Regarding gifts, the best gift was having 17 family members in one house for Christmas dinner. This was only part of the family, but what a gift - 2 sisters, 2 brothers-in-law, 9 nieces/nephews, 3 great nieces/nephews.

We had 20 friends/family over for the traditional brunch at my house...the best gift (besides having everyone together) hasn't shown up yet...Mr. Windsor ordered me the Nook e-reader (we knew when he ordered it that it wouldn't ship until 1/15)....I am beyond excited to get it!
