Today [14.2¾]

[Lava King]

Today, I purchased and installed covers for the turbine vents on my roof. The vent on the right was damaged in a storm so it squeaks and rattles when it spins. Not very conducive to a good night's sleep.

Don't worry about it we all do that from time to time!
Seriously though are you not insured for storm damage?

Yeah, mortgage company insists upon insurance, can't fathom why...

A new turbine vent is about $40 and I can install it myself, and that turbine was the only thing damaged so repair costs don't even come close to the deductible. But, since it's getting cold, I was going to cover the vents anyway. I'll wait until spring to replace the turbine. Probably replace both of them so that they match

Today I went to the hospital to have a wisdom tooth removed.
A five minute procedure which took them over an hour to do

I planned today as a "work on my thesis" day, but it seems that instead of that it'll be a "lay on the couch and do nothing" day

You must have been very wise! I remember having 2 wisdom teeth removed, then going back to work. Other then a mouth full of gauze, it wasn't too bad. Hope you'll be wise enough to work on your thesis later

Nommy

What is your thesis about?

 

[nommy the first]

My thesis is about how international law and UN treaties effect Dutch parliamentary decision and ratification.

No idea if I translated that correctly, but the Dutch title is "De effecten van internationale wetgeving en VN verdragen op de Nederlandse parlementaire besluitvorming en ratificatie".

I'm guessing you study Politics or Law?

Both
I currently study International Law and Politics. This is my final year and next year I'll be going to study International Management either at the University of Edinburgh in the UK, the Erasmus University in the Netherlands or at INSEAD in France.
All three are great and currently in the top 50 of best unis world wide, and all have wicked entry requirements, but I hope to get accepted I have already made arrangements with Ars Aequi, a high standing Dutch law magazine, to publish my thesis there when I finish it, and I hope that that will give me enough credentials to get accepted.

Bill , I hope I'm not too far behind you, I do a lot of digging in the dirt here around my home..when Spring arrives I'll be back at it again.
By the way the flower in the upper left corner of my screen, has just completed it's blooming cycle this year, it's an evergreen, blooms this time of year, bees love it.
It's part of the camellia family of blooming small trees.

After working for ten and a half hour and getting a promotion I decided to go do some stuff with friends, so I bought tickets to go see The Beards live on February the 18th!


And then I saw that Eric Church will be live near me in March, so I also bought tickets to go see him!


Today was a very good day


Nommy

 

[LADYPINKtomato1]

I'm pleased you purchased those tickets.. to go enjoy something that gives you pleasure..
along with all your hard work.
As my family used to say: " All work and no play will make one a dull boy "

 

[LADYPINKtomato1]

I did that same thing in October.. Bon Jovi 's tour "Because We Can" live show was in Little Rock , AR.
at Alltel Arena, I worked until 4 pm on Friday, left work, drove up to see his show.. fantastic, gorgeous music, the techno lighting show was out of this world... never seen one any where as good , certainly never in a movie or tv program. Left before the last number....hit I-20 headed south got home past midnight, some of the best money I've ever spent.
