Winter Days.

Winters in Los Alamos are pretty nice. The temperature is normally around 40 degrees. It is normally really clear outside and there isn't much of a wind. This said, I read in the paper this morning that they believe we are done with snow for this winter - which is pretty upsetting (can you get too much snow?).

I heard on NPR that the 2008 word of the year was picked. It was bailout. Maverick was in the running though.

This week is Official Bad Girl Holiday - Man Watchers' Week. You are suppose to get the girls together and take to the streets in force!

While listening to the news on the way to work I had a question. Why is it that most people look for the bad. You hear the stories and people report on death, failures, pain and suffering. Why are we into this? Why can't we broadcast about hope, love, fun and happiness? Are these not stories that are worth radio time?? I notice the same thing from people in every day life. They like to hear the stories of people who are getting divorced, deaths in the family, dismemberment. WHY?

We still haven't heard from the vet about Bend and Moab.

My father had neck surgery last Thursday and is recovering slowly. VERY very slowly. Hopefully his is back in the swing of things soon!
