random things
Mar. 2nd, 2009 10:32 pm1. Okay, Turkey has got to be one of the coolest places for archaeology, and people barely ever talk about it. Check out this article. These are standing stones they found in Turkey that are more than three times as old as Stonehenge. Not to mention the interesting site of Nemrut Dagi (also here). Or check out these cave houses in Cappadocia.
2. Um, in real life (er, sorta) news, my front story and back story are starting to mesh! It is going very slowly, but it feels a lot more solid. (I'm talking about the WIP).
3. My nose is drying up. Yay!
4. Lap Boy just learned to do the inchworm move. He is FAST. He also is so excited about it that he doesn't really want to sleep. Are we surprised?
5. Does posting your door with "no soliciting" really work? We've had a record number of people trying to hock us things since we've been in this house, and I'd like to try it. A youngish person tonight tried to sell me a newspaper subscription. We already get three that I don't have time to read in their entirety. I am worried about a precarious job situation, and her best argument was that if I would only relent, she could go to Six Flags for the first time ever. Um. I'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade, and I'm not even irritated at the girl. But I am annoyed at the marketing techniques of the newspaper. I stuck a sign on the door after she left. We'll see if it helps.
