On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as the dome comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when or if it will go away.

Dale Barbara, Iraq vet and now a short-order cook, finds himself teamed with a few intrepid citizens; town newspaper owner Julia Shumway, a physician's assistant at the hospital, a select-woman, and three brave kids. Against them stands Big Jim Rennie, a politician who will stop at nothing , even murder to hold the reins of power, and his son, who is keeping a horrible secret in a dark pantry. But their main adversary is the Dome itself. Because time isn't just short. It's running out. .

I rarely take pictures of myself because, frankly, I don't like to.

Strangely, I was feeling rather good at the time. So, here are a few.

Actually, there's more pictures of a cat than moi, oh well.

I really don't believe in the evolution theory.

I don't like the idea that the only reason I'm in this planet was because of some fish who stepped out of the ocean.

Heck, I'll be comforted if the human race was created by some super-duper intelligent aliens and are here for a reason.

At least then we know us, humans, are not a mistake.

Yeah, better.

All my loose change that had been collected in the last two years had finally been turned into paper money. That was done by visiting that machine, Coinstar.

The total: $66.90

Let me finish this post by saying that paper money stinks.
ATM machines are full of bacteria.
It's nice to have hand sanitizer :D

It's an easy life when you're easily amused.

...and because cupcakes are still as pretty when they're beaten up...
