Random Tuesday Thoughts

I love to respond personally to people’s comments, but so many of you haven’t set your account up properly so I can do that. Read my earlier post on how to fix this, please? I don’t want to seem like I’m ignoring you!

Once I got to ride on a plane that had capacity for 12 people. There was one seat on each side of the plane, with an aisle so little you had to sashay sideways down the teensy corridor to get to your seat. And then you spent the whole flight with your head sideways because the ceiling curved around your head starting just above shoulder level. The co-pilot handed out earplugs to the passengers, which did not block out anywhere near enough of the noise. I was deaf for 2 days after getting off that plane.

I’ve never diagrammed a sentence.

As a kid, I had a basement bedroom. I wanted a fireman’s pole from the family room to the basement SO BADLY.

I used to have really bad eyes, like legally blind bad eyes. I got Lasik a few years back, and now I get to participate in the daily miracle of waking up and being able to *see*.

I've been busy this weekend. My best friend delivered her sweet baby girl, and named me the godmother. Wow. And she sure is a cutie! I was honored to be her doula, and watch the miracle of birth once again.

My girls made me breakfast on Mother's Day... at 5:00pm. :)

Random Tuesday Thoughts

I always get a kick out of adults that feel the need to announce that they’re going to use the restroom. I think it’s a learned behavior from when they were little kids. It starts with the parent(s) repeatedly asking, “Do you need to use the potty?” and morphs into the kid doing his own announcing of, “I have to go potty!” I guess some people never outgrow certain things.

Learning not to give a flying rat's ass about what others think of you is VERY freeing.

Two days of banging my head against the desk talking to vendor tech support ended with ME fixing THEIR problem. So, so, so SO frustrating! It’s your product, folks, why don’t you know how to fix it?!?

Not too long ago, I made a trip to the local whack job survivalist bulk food store to buy a mondo bag of steel cut oats. While I was browsing around the shelves of #10 cans, filled with food supply goodness, I noticed one can emblazoned with the words, “Flavored Like Ham Chunks”. This sat right next door to its close cousin, “Flavored Like Chicken Chunks”. Gosh, that whetted the appetite right then and there!

I find it strange that when Influenza B ran rampant around here, nobody cared. Now, with a flu that’s not as virulent starting the rounds, people are FREAKED. OUT. They’ve closed down schools, people are wearing masks, and paranoia runs amok. Why didn’t they close down the schools when over half of the kids and teachers at my daughter’s high school were out sick with the seasonal flu? But they sure will now that ONE teen might have swine flu symptoms… Give me a break.

Life is made of moments. You have to treasure each one as you get it, and then put it gently down to move on to the next one.

I Want These SO Bad!

Pink Flamingo Lawn Ornaments

But the kids whined that they'd like to have friends over sometime...

Someday, dear neighbor.... someday.

People used to say, "We'll get a black president when pigs fly."

Well, swine flu.

Friday Fill-Ins

1. It's Friday, so it's time for the fill-ins I so bravely agreed to accept from Grant last week.

2. Who the flem figgins ate the last of the snargle %$#@! ice cream. I was saving that for me to eat after you all went to bed!

3. Adjustment on the roadster for time travel with another gizmo because of the botheration with the flux capacitor not withstanding. Great Scott!

4. I need to bungee jump off a hot air balloon and stockpile 5 years worth of TVP before the Giant Atomic Chickens™ destroy the world in accordance with glorious Satanic prophecy. But not because I believe in doomsday predictions, because that would just be silly.

5. Bunny: _____ (Note - this is a picture fill-in. Let me know if you are short on pictures of hot Asian women).

Well, Grant... I searched and searched, and found the perfect Asian bunny:

Awwwwww! So CUTE!
