Happy Birthday Cat!!!!
I shall sing a song for you via the all powerful internets, because my singing voice is crap and I have a migrane and I don’t want to make it worse, Yes my singing voice is THAT bad.
Okay, I’m not really singing, but the sentiment is there!
Have a great birthday Cat!
32 Days and Counting
I have this nifty little counter on my iGoogle, so now I can freak myself out daily. Time, it flies so swiftly and drags painfully.
And I can’t count. Apparently I thougth that we had 5 weeks left. I really should brush up on my addition and subtraction. That whole math thing gives me a bloody [...]
Drinking Song - Rob Dougan
I want to weave a musical spell
That leaves you unwell and thinking of me everyday
I want to play you a tune that leaves you marooned and troubled
Each time I’m away
Is there a melody - that could lead you to me - like a lullabied child lead to sleep?
So for one [...]
Linkedy link link…
Wandering the web, and look what I found.
I lost my son to a war I oppose. We were both doing our duty. The idea that saying anything against the war is a crime against the troops, well that’s just a tactic our government uses to get us to shut the fuck up. This is a [...]
The boxes rise
With the departure of the futon, the front room has becoming the staging station for the building box towers. I thought, albeit naively, that all of the boxes I’d collected from work would be plenty for our books. Dead wrong was I (we watched a show about the history of Star Wars last night…sorry. Yoda [...]
Captin Jack stole my sleep
If you have had your head up your ass for the past few months, you may not know that Pirates of the Caribbean - The End of the World, came out. (The reviews are not kind, but I liked it). I’m only going to go as far as to say that I need to see [...]
La La La….. and stuff
I have a bruised finger and my lip is a little sensitive. And I know you are going to ask why, because I know you care. Hollie and her friend came over to get the futon. I forgot how heavy and awkward it was. D and I had to turn it on its side, shimmy [...]
Planting Onions
Sometimes I’m just odd.
For weeks, two onions grew long, pale leaves, and they were growing said greenery in my vegetable drawer in the fridge. I didn’t want to throw them away. After all, they were mighty pretty. So, when in doubt - call Mom. She told me to pot them and when they’ve established some [...]
A Woman’s Words
D linked me to this article (or blog postish type thingy) by Joss Wheadon - of Firefly fame (yes, I know he did Buffy and that other thing, but I loved Firefly…and it’s my blog — so nah!). Read the whole thing. I don’t know why I am endlessly surprised by men who really respect [...]
Jokes on me..
How do you get a tissue to dance?
Put a little boogie in it…
Bah dum bum!
Sometimes I love talking to our contractors. They make me laugh
6 weeks and counting
It’s rushing up on me, this lack of time. I’ve resisted disassembling the house, trying to sift through the stuff, to find the proper box for this and the right packing material for that. For the first time in a long time, I’m considering the wooden trunk. Full of old journals (when I was super-tragic) [...]
Wow…
We had a nice rainstorm this evening.. and then the ceiling in the kitchen started to leak. Nothing like a little indoor water feature to add some ambiance.
I’m off tomorrow to work on my story. Have a happy Flyday.
Bits of it
Suitcases - I had the best suitcase ever. One of those older, blue ones with flipping latches and a shell so indestructible that I could lean on the side without it buckling. It wasn’t cool enough to be vintage — and after looking around at various sites, I think it can place it in the [...]
Ready — set — GO!
Busy busy busy….
I have to pull a 10 page work out of my ass by Friday for Seton Hill. For some reason it seems different. I can’t procrastinate, although I already have, and I feel bad for not getting on this assignment sooner. It’s going to be my introdution to my classmates, and they specified [...]
graduation
It was hot as bawlz and tons of fun. And tonight, if you didn’t know, we are having a gathering.
Oh — and I fucked up. I actually got honors… I should read the requirements a little better next time.
Congrats ONE AND ALL!
Butterflies in my tummy
I am cleaning house right now. Actually, that’s not entirely true. I am sitting on porch, watching the squirrels perform amazing feats of acrobatics and smoking a cigarette. I’ve cleaned the bathroom, and started on the kitchen. I’ve got butterflies in my stomach now. They will be fluttering all day. In 12 hours my family [...]
Would you like a quickie?
I’ve been writing a blog post all day and didn’t finish.
The fam comes in tomorrow.
I’m so excited I could pee! (think excited puppy)
Target, Whole Foods, Petco and shoe shopping are all in my immediate future.
I did not get honors…but at least I graduated.
Swallowing that disappointment and shame is pretty hard for me.
It’s like swallowing a [...]
My husband rocks
I heart his art.
Playing Ketchup — this will not be edited
Wednesday - My final final, Botany. Again, I believe that Dr. Grey screwed us. I studied the list of topics, made note cards, poured over maps and formulas and all that other nonsense. I packed my brain full of stuff, and when the test came, I almost threw something. He included information from throughout the [...]
Hurricane Hunters Fly Into Swirling System
It’s starting…. is this a bad sign?
Man.. I won’t miss this shit when we move.
