When I read “I am geek, hear me snort” I was intrigued. It was the blog snob tag line for Singing Potatoes. Visit. I am amused. Then again, I am a geek too.

A French barkeeper confessed that a cheeky customer had tricked him out of a free drink by paying with euro Monopoly money. Now that’s funny. We always joked when I first moved to Germany that the money looked like monopoly money – but after awhile the good ol’ greenback started to look quite boring being so plain. I still miss colorful money. If you get your hand on some Euro money and you are wondering, Euro notes can’t take the heat, but the come out of the washing machine ok. (Link thanks to Fark)

Kymberlie & I went over to the mall to get a fast bite for lunch and we discovered that the calendar store has everything on clearance of course… and while I was there I discovered The Blue Day Journal (at a price *much* lower then Amazon!) so cheap that I could not pass it up – plus I still had $10 to spend from a Christmas gift that was returned! I am really excited about using this journal for writing prompts – from what I saw while I flipped through it it looks really good!

It can buy a House, But not a Home
It can buy a Bed, But not Sleep
It can buy a Clock, But not Time
It can buy you a Book, But not Knowledge
It can buy you a Position, But not Respect
It can buy you Medicine, But not Health
It can buy you Blood, But not Life
It can buy you Sex, But not Love

So you see money isn’t everything. And it often causes pain and suffering. I tell you all this because I am your Friend, and as your Friend I want to take away your pain and suffering…

So send me all your money and I will suffer for you. CASH ONLY PLEASE.
(Thought this was gonna be one of those “inspirational” ones, didn’t you????)

Happy birthday (a day late) to Julie! Hope you had a really great day!
