The Long Pause
Another long pause in Things. Here's your weekend summary:
Saturday morning Katy and I went down to UCLA to participate in a study on marraige. We were a part of this study's predecessor starting back in 1994 and they asked us back. It basically amounted to filling out questionnaires, being interviewed, and *gasp* talking to Katy while they videotaped us. If you're curious, you can find out more about the original study here.
We got $200 for our troubles, and a nice parting gift - two pocketknives, one for each of us. I find it funny that they were giving married couples pocketknives, especially given that one of the questions was along the lines of "have you pulled a knife or gun on your spouse in the last six months." Well, now that I have one handy, maybe I'll consider it...
Saturday afternoon found me lecturing on the Lord of the Rings at Travis' place. Mike has a nice writeup of the event, including pictures.
In other news, "our" hummingbird eggs have hatched - no good pictures yet, they just look like little feathery blobs. When (if?) they actually look like little birds I'll post a picture.
There you go.
