Oops.

I forgot about a 2 1/2 hour continuing ed seminar I had today that followed hard on the heels of my morning off-campus work session, so I had to go to that, which left little time for fun stuff like blogging. Or gouging out my eyeballs with squid beaks.

Actually, not a bad set of presentations at all--one on moisture management in steel stud assemblies, one on hot applied rubberized asphalt roof and plaza waterproofing membranes, and one on direct-to-deck polystyrene insulation installation.

FUN!

Also got nice box lunch and a Barlow multi-tool out of the deal as well. Not that those multitool things are all that wonderful--I've never been fond of all-in-one universal tool things, because like a spork, they offer only the promise of the utility of actual tools. But, hey, it was free. Ish.

Anyway, my head hurts really bad now, and I still have the junk I was supposed to do this morning to do, and there probably should be some effort given to coming up with a Thursday Three.

(Topic suggestions gratefully accepted.)

In light of the upcoming holiday, and if we haven't done something similar before, perhaps something themed around Memorial Day? Have/are any of your family members serving in the Armed Forces? What branch? Did they/are they seeing active service? Has anyone in your family made the ultimate sacrifice for their country? How do you honor them on Memorial Day or through the year?

Feel free to pick three and pretty them up - my head is almost as mushy as yours after listening to super-sized construction machinery make scary noises outside my office window all day.

Well, I think that's a good idea, Diane--Miss Sarah had sent me some good questions via e-mail, but with her permission, I think I'll save those for next week in order to use your suggestions.

Sure!

That is a good idea to having something relevant to the upcoming holiday.
