bah? buh. BOO!

Cowgod, SHEEP say, “bah”; you say “moo”.

Another giddy day in paradise:

  1. The basement sewer outlet was spewing out of the drain for the washing machine again. Took the afternoon off and had RotoRooter grind out the rest of the roots.
    Had sooo much fun cleaning up the basement–which has a brick floor and no floor drain. Thank heavens for wet vacs.

  2. While I was waiting for the Roto Rooter guy, I found the source of the loud nighttime crash that scared the bejaysus out of me. The dog inadvertantly knocked over my Christmas cactus and broke it to smithereens.
    I bought the silly plant at a grocery store when I was a kid, and I’ve had it for 30 years. And it was just starting to bloom again!
    Anyway, I got it repotted; hope it survives.

Ah, life in the fast lane. And it was cool and poured rain all day.

I love mulch. I especially love the free woodchip mulch I get from the town conservation center. I hope I have time to get another trailer load of mulch this weekend.

24

The cherries on the tree outside my window are turning yellow. The dog just went by. It’s windy. My son blew up his car. Whoops…

25

Note to self: Little Bunny Fufu did not need to bop all the feildmice

26

Water is wet.

27

Wow, the cowgod is back.
I never thought I’d see the day, and here it is.
When did this happen? How could I miss it? Have I not been paying enough attention?

28

damn model is missing a piece

29

Just though I’d share the fact that I shaved my legs this morning and I plucked that chin hair too!!

Also, I have softball practice tonight… and it’s hot outside!

30

I’m way overdue for a dye job. I went to Sav-On and found one box of my shade, all by its lonesome, on the discount rack. Woohoo!

31

I drank some really expired milk this morning. Expired as in, over a week ago. And I’ve been drinking it for the past week. And I’ve never noticed. I had to have someone else point it out to me.

32

The black cat that lives across the street is too thin. The roses over there are obscenely bright red.

33

There will be no apricots this summer. The freak snowstorm we got on April Fools Day killed all the blossoms. I’ve only seen two actual fruits on the tree, and they are pitiful stunted green things covered in spots of rust. No whiling away warm late-springtime evenings sitting in the branches of the apricot tree, eating sweet, ripe, nectar-filled apricots still warm from ripening in the sun all day for me this year. Sigh.

34

be sure and wear a jock.

35

The Circus is in town! The Circus is in town!

We had our annual Health Fair at work today. It’s when open enrollment for our various HMO’s come in set up tables, give us free swag, and tell us how wonderful they are compared to the people sitting at the table next to them. I took home several pens, an address book, a teeny weeny sewing kit, a shoe polisher, a band-aid holder, and a little notepad shaped like an apple. Oh, I got a bottle opener too. One of the places had notepaper cubes last year, and I wanted some of them again, but no one had them this year. I was bummed. I like notepaper cubes.

Mundane? Quite. No one that works there is ever going to change the HMO they’re with. New people will sign up, yes, but no one’s going to switch. Anyone that’s worked there for more than a year goes to the Health Fair for one reason–to see who can collect the most free ink pens. Hey, I’m a municipal employee. We’ve got to do something with our taxpayer’s money. :wink:

37

damn thing still itches

38

So I used the hair coloring. Looks good, but now I have to bleach my eyebrows.

39

Softball practice went pretty good. I got two singles and hit a double. My legs are tired from running though!

My life is wierd. 99% of my diet is Mama Cozzi’s frozen pizzas of some sort. I only drink Mtn Dew. Last night, I stayed up till 2:30. I still couldn’t sleep, so I did push ups, sit ups, and headstands for an hour. I then had a dream that a girl I used to know had a baby, and for some GOD AWFUL reason I had agreed to get an apartment with her and raise it as my own. Oh sweet Jesus, I’m glad that dream is over. It’s VERY windy here. Russian girls’ long distance boyfriend is coming home today. ::sigh:: My time has likely passed.
