Interesting Find

I was taking Bear out to go potty before bed and look at what I found:
:sst: Sorry about the quality of the pictures.

I'm not sure what kind it is, but I'm going to see if I can find out. I'm almost didn't notice it, but it just didn't quite match in. Had to keep Bear away from it though. He wanted to play with it and the little critter just wanted to chill out in the grass. :lol: It had been raining off and on for most of the day and quite a bit that night. I'm thinking that's what brought it out, but who knows. :smile:

Huh. Is This a Good Thing or a Bad Thing?

I was playing Mobsters on Myspace and this is what I saw:
Umm. Yeah. That's quite the combination. :lol:

Oktoberfest

I got my birthday gift from my Mom this morning. Yay! She put all sorts of little things in there. I even took a video of me opening it. :smile: I'll try to get it up soon. I got some little scented wax melts (like a candle), a basting set for barbecuing, and a little timer shaped like a teapot, and a stainless steel funnel. That was a very nice start to the morning.
It took me a little while to find a spot to park but I found one eventually a few blocks away. :smile: The parade started at 10 and lasted until about 12 or 12:30. It was pretty long, but they had a lot of floats and... the bagpipers. :love: That was so nice to hear, especially since I didn't stay for their performance tonight. I took tons of pictures of the parade, but not much else unfortunately. :frown: There were people everywhere. I'll post a few of the pictures of it later after I've had a chance to go through them. I did have a wonderful time though. :smile:
I went and milled around the craft show/farmers market for awhile. I'm a tad sunburned to show for it too. P: I do have a video of the stuff I got though.

Post Birthday Post

Thanks everyone for all the birthday wishes! awww I'm not even going to try to name you all because knowing my luck, I'll forget someone and it'd break my heart if I did that. I had a wonderful birthday thanks to you guys.
I did go out to dinner with one of my bosses and his wife in Oshkosh. I decided on a french dip sandwhich for dinner. :chef: I haven't had a decent one of those for ages. Also, part of the gift was that they'd fill my fuel tank up which I thought was wonderful given the fuel prices. :smile: I did take some short videos of the drive up there, but there's an awful buzz in it. So until I can eliminate the buzz or tone it down, you won't get to see them. awww My brother called on the ride up there, so I got to talk to him for a bit. :yes: I haven't talked to my brother for awhile and that totally made my day.
I forgot that this weekend is Oktoberfest. :D It's quite a big deal around here. I'm not sure if it's because a lot of the folks are of German descent or what the deal is, but they love their Oktoberfest. Oktoberfest Events. I love going to the farmers market and getting some of my stuff like homemade soap and fresh honey. Mmmm. I'm goinng to check out the craft show too. I'm also thinking of watching the parade this year. I keep hearing how good it is, so what the heck. Might as well enjoy the trip. :smile: One of the main things I want to see though are the City of Denver Pipe Band. I love bagpipes, so for me this is really awesome to get to see a live performance. I'll try to get a bunch of pictures of everything to post on here. :D
