Tonight is the IBS graduation. Miranda has a relative that is graduating tonight so we will go to that. I'm sure we will have a nice time. The relative is Buck (the nickname for Charisse's boy). Who is Charisse? That's Ron's daughter. Who is Ron? That's my awesome mum-in-law's brother.
We have a skunk around this morning. We are hoping that Stubby doesn't find him. That would be about "par for the course".
Guess what I found!!! That's right! A truffle plantation in Eugene, OR. I can't get to their home page and that's why I never saw them. Why raise truffles? The Black Perigord truffle has sold for $1000 - $3000 per pound. Plus I think it would be fun. Unfortunately it gets a bit too cold in this climate around here. I bought a book and it says that the fungus can't live very long under 28 degrees. Needless to say it pretty much stays under 28 degrees from January to March around here.
I have got to manage my diet more. I'm almost below 150. I think today I'm going to run up to McDonald's and get breakfast.
Last night we watched Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Patrick and Nellie liked it. Gene Wilder is one of my favorite actors. He plays bizarre characters really well. He is also in Start the Revolution Without Me which is where my hat comes from. Anywho... It's a clean and lighthearted movie. Miranda tried to get me to watch The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas. It's about a German officer's boy in WWII that befriended a Jewish boy in a concentration camp. The boy gets into the camp to play with the child and ends up getting put in the gas oven with the rest of the victims. Yay! What a fun movie to watch! Needless to say I didn't watch it.
Well I'm off to McDonald's.
