Lest I've accidentally suggested that my folks are weird and scary...

OK, "weird", yes, but so's everyone in the family.

Anyway, two sweet things so far from this visit. Mom asking whether I have any special new "person or group of people" in my life, and Dad calling just a minute ago to check on what kind of flourescent lights I want for the lightbulb switch campaign (actually a good excuse to do something I've been meaning to do for ages.

Last night we ordered pizza and watched Evolution, which was a fun low-key way to spend the evening.

Sweetie.. if you can see the last few journal entries in chandara's journal, can you direct her to any legal resources that may be able to help?

Hey that's neat! I've been replacing all the bulbs here with that as they burn out but more because I'm cheap and lazy than especially environmentally active.

I don't think the flourescent bulb people push the cheap and lazy aspect enough. Those are huge motivators for most people.

We've got our three most used fixtures in the apartments as fluorescents. The main kitchen one is a tube florescent, but the other two, in the bedroom and the living room are both 13w CFLs. Generally we're pleased with them but they always seem just a hair darker than their incandescent counterparts.

We own Evolution, Dad and I found it hysterical when we watched it in theatres.

As I already use a variety of high-efficiency lamps, I opted to replace my old magnetic ballasts with new silent electronic ones.
