Bloomsday

As you may recall from last year, June 16 is Bloomsday, an event marking the anniversary of the day set in the novel Ulysses, by James Joyce. You can read Ulysses for free online, thanks to Project Gutenberg. I just read today in the English Wikipedia that June 16th was the date of James Joyce's first date with his wife. Could he be more romantic?

Today is my next to last shift at work. From here on out it's all at-home work, at least until the point that I may get a full-time job.

goobie bear and boston bear.

My brother lives in Boston at the moment and so was able to secure this lovely bear for me. Thanks to his girlfriend I got it in the mail today. Yay for Michael and Lisa!
