If colors blink by night or day

... precipitation's on the way. I really want one of these, really super bad. We saw one at the Discovery Channel Store or whatever those places are called, you know, basically the Museum Store except for nerdy science nerds who are into science and skeletons and bugs and crap. We can't get one because we're sitting on our moneys for the time being. More on that later. But I really really really want to program my very own Northwestern weatherball like a crazy person. Perhaps THIS will inspire me to employment! Hahahahaha. Ha.

You know what else is great is that my husband surprised me with the Simon F albums I was feenin' for here. Did you know Robert Mapplethorpe took the pictures for the Gun cover? How on Earth did F swing that? I guess he was just a very attractive and ambitious young man in those days, right. Anyway, I'm so so so excited. It's almost like having a weatherball. Maybe better.
