First bug bite of the season. On my big toe. Just at the perfect spot to rub against my sandal. Grrr.

Super Disappointment

I remember back when "Super Saver Shipping" from Amazon was a good deal. It said that the shipping might take a little while longer, but things still usually arrived to my door within 4 days of me placing an order. But now they don't even process your order for at least that long. I ordered a book and a CD on Monday and they still haven't even shipped yet. I wonder do they keep a queue of their "lesser customers" who were foolish enough to take advantage of a bargain, and they'll get around to those orders when they have nothing better to do? Or is it simply the fact that a lot more people are ordering from Amazon these days? Either way, it's disappointing at best. You really can't get good help these days.... unless you're willing to pay for it.

Catching Up

I've been a blog slacker for the past week or more. So here's a pictorial review of some of the highlights:




















We saw this wonderful turtle while walking down at the Tinicum Wildlife Refuge.



















I wore Chester the dog out by taking him on a 3 or 4 mile walk at Ridley Creek State Park.
























I took a self portrait in which I think I look oddly similar to my dad.
























I spent Friday evening hanging out with my buddy Moby while his parents were at a wedding in Lancaster.
























And finally, on Saturday I got a sweet picture taken with Crozer's newest ambulance.

.....

Now you all know what I've been up to. Consider yourselves informed.
