No animal posts tonight. It's been quite the day today, from crazy day at work to picking up my NEW CAR tonight, to some other stuff going on. My head is killing me and I don't have the energy to research and type tonight. I plan on taking my NEW CAR to get groceries tomorrow (especially since I now have to make sure I make and take lunch to work every day instead of throwing money away), then do a lot of studying.
So there you have it. A NaBlo post to say I won't be doing a post with any meat to it tonight. Ciao kiddies.
p.s. Did I mention I now have a NEW CAR???
GO AHEAD! (The sermon can't start without the music.)
Good day to the congregation. Today, the Reverend MiamiShyner is in somewhat of a p-funky mood. You know, that's better than just regular funky.
It's Friday the 13th! No ladders, no mirrors, no cats. Or no seeds, no stems, no sticks depending on how you run your game. Not legal but I ain't hatin on ya. Seen the green do too much good.
Speaking of doing good, know that the Reverend MS practices what she preaches. There was a guy on the street this morning asking for help to get some food. Honestly, he didn't look homeless but that doesn't mean he wasn't hungry. I got him a sandwich cuz I'm nice like that. It's payday, I can blow a couple bucks putting out some good karma. ROCO!
Let us not forget our countdowns. 13 days, under 2 weeks left until I chug out this 5K. I have no idea why I'm even worried about it as I run it three times a week. Could be the same reason that I would get nervous before shows even though we had done them 20 times before. :-) I'm still a slow 27 minutes and change but I'm just concentrating on finishing. 43 (Troy!), 86 (Hines!), 212 (20 Sepulvedas + 2 Batches) till vacation, graduation, destination. Steelers on the brain much?
HERE WE GO STEELERS, HERE WE GO!!
Very exciting, for me at least, is that my information arrived this morning for my group fitness certification. I really enjoy torturing myself by having too much on my plate at all times. I also believe that I'll be a kick-ass fitness instructor. I'll work my way up to personal trainer after that. My plan is to have experience in a couple things before we move so I can be ready for anything.
Yesterday, I tried an apple cider vinegar rinse on my hair. It does remove a lot of buildup and residue but good gravy it stinks. After rinsing with hot water forever and then another shampoo, I think my hair still smells a tiny bit like vinegar. I'll have to try another shampoo this evening but it was totally worth it. Likely not noticable to anyone but me but it looks cleaner and healthier now than it did before.
My congregation, go out into the world and spread the good ROCO word. People need to know about this! Just imagine if everyone was this happy every ROCO Friday. It might lead to ROCO Thursdays and who knows after that! We could all be happy! Let's get on it. :-)
Have a great day, a great weekend, and most of all, have a ROCO Friday!
The term "lemur" is derived from the Latin word lemures, meaning "spirits of the night" or "haunter". This likely refers to their large reflective eyes and the wailing cries of some species (the Indri in particular).
Lemurs are primates. There are five families of lemurs which contain 99 species and subspecies.
Quick facts:
- Lemurs live on the island of Madagascar as well as surrounding islands
- Lemurs range in size from 30 grams to 10 kg
- Before humans inhabited Madagascar, there were species of lemurs that weighed up to 240 kg
- Lemurs use their tails for communication as well as for balance when leaping between trees
- Lemurs have opposable thumbs
- Lemurs have a reflective layer over their retinas to enhance night vision
- Lemurs depend heavily on the sense of smell and have large nasal cavities and moist noses

Wow, what an amazing image. Check this out, just in today from the Euro Space Agency.
Been busy with other stuff tonight and I just realized the time. I'll have to use my car post as my Nablo of the day. Back to quasi-theme posts tomorrow. By the way, there are still a few post suggestions given in a previous post that I can use, but feel free to throw more at me if you wish.
Given that this is Remembrance Day, let me leave you with this video from Veterans' Affairs Canada.
Hmmm, sorry, vox's video thingy isn't working. Please go here.
