Just posting to let you all know I’m still alive. Alive and farming. I feel like such a bad mumper, not even reading your posts. Hope all is well. For those of you for whom all is not well, **{HUGS}**!

All I wanted her to do was read the addresses to me because I can’t read her handwriting and by her reaction you’d think I just asked her to pull her liver through her belly button, saute it up with some onions and serve it to me on a silver platter.

That’s so wrong; no wonder she was upset! I thought everyone knows you should serve them with fava beans & a nice key-auntie. 😛

Transferring the photos from my camera to my computer, and listening to an interview with Joni Mitchell on the radio. Work later. Bringing the bass clarinet.

Ah no, I’m afraid it’s just a video game called Harvest Moon, the most recent one. It’s a farming game and I’m currently obsessed with it, to the point that I can’t even make the time to properly respond to posts… except this once.

ETA: April, if you ever find yourself with too many babies one day, I’ll gladly take one or two off your hands. Age is irrelevant so if after a few years you’ve decided you don’t wanna keep one, I’ll take him/her! 😉

\*\*Apes \*\*- she’s perfect till she learns the word _“NO!!!”_ Then it’s off to a traveling circus for her, right? 😉

Garage is clean and rearranged. Lunch has been ingested. A load of towels is almost ready for the dryer. Rain is done and the sun is popping in and out. Life is good!

Irk is crazy irky! I feel like I have ten different things goin’ at the same time, which I do actually. Just had to take a break for a minute. I managed ten minutes to snarf down N.O.L. On the plus side, folks are gettin’ jobs so, yay, positive outcomes!

Ok, time to dive back in to paperirk ocean.

Laterz!

Can’t get printer to work.  
I bought it several years ago and just took it out of the box and it seems it needs a new print head at $29.99 and is no longer under warranty because I’ve had it longer than a year.  
For 39.00 I can get ink too.

That is actually cheaper than buying ink for my other printer.

There is no end to the things that are annoying me today.

I think the people around me do not appreciate the amount of restraint required to allow them to continue breathing.

As my friend told me earlier, it only feels good for the moment. Then you have to figure out what to do with the bodies and clean up the mess.

Are they going the scenic route? I’m pretty sure I’m south of you- I’m just _from_ the North 😉

There is someone on my street who keeps shouting ‘Woo!’. They’ve been doing this around every minute for the last 15 minutes. Yesterday, they shouted ‘Woo!’ for over an hour. Surely nothing in the world is _that_ exciting 😕

That cruise looks nice **Moooom** - I enjoy chaos far too much for something as organised as a cruise myself, but there’s some fun lookin’ stops on there! I’d like to go to Iceland sometime, though it’s maybe not the best place for someone who doesn’t really eat fish…

It’s a deal. I will however send a return crate with postage paid because I am sure you will want to return them in less than 24 hrs 😉

Thank god I got home from walking from my bus stop _right_ before the heavy rain. When I was opening the garage (not even 15 minutes ago), it was drizzling very lightly, and now it’s raining quite hard with thunder and lightning. It makes me think, "Thank God I got home without having to walk in that rain.

ETA: Yeah, it’s fucking pouring out there.

**sari** some people are still alive only because I would not look good in prison orange.

Right now this includes two program participants. Pointy stick wieldin’ Sri Lankan Spiders with nukes would be too merciful a way to kill those particular two.

ETA: **Apes** awwwwwwwww… I needed that keyooooooooooote overload. 😃

I am officially losing it.

I just went down to move the clothes from the washer to the dryer and all my clothes are sitting in the basket. I put in the detergent, the color bleach and the fabric softener, put everything on the right settings and washed the entire load without putting the clothes in.

Now I just upset the poor Sah-dog because HFH went out with with two dogs and left one behind who is now barking her fool head off and trying to rip a hole through the door. I yelled at her to shut up and scared my dog. Kid of weird, I’ve never yelled at him like that and normally he doesn’t seem to care when I yell at them.  
The tension in this house is thick.

I usually put everything in and instead of hitting the button that starts the machine, I hit the button that turns it off and walk away. Then half an hour later I go back and the swearing starts. The funny thing is, it’s not like I can’t _hear_ the washer from wherever I might be in the house. Why did I not notice it not making noise?
