The Cheesecake is Rich

Had a slightly crappy day at work, but had half-ish a bottle of wine after work. I win. (Went to 3 grocery stores to find Apothic White, which I had for the first time on Sunday. Bought out the store’s supply of the wine, which was a mere 2 bottles. Is it wrong to say [...]

So, Hi. Here’s what I have been up to: 1) Still playing Canasta on Pogo as much as possible. I played about four games today before 12 noon or so. 2) Early voting ended today so I made the trek to the library to engage in Early Voting. My home state has a Defense of [...]

Because apparently I forgot I have a blog… Here is what I have been doing: 1) Playing enough Canasta on Pogo.com that Gene wondered if I was playing to escape talking to him. Whoops. No, it is just relaxing. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose, sometimes people accuse me of cheating. I finally made it [...]

Tonight, after dinner, I sat in the backyard and relaxed with the dogs. While outside, two things happened: 1) I saw two of my dogs eat something I’ve heard of dogs eating but I’ve never seen MY dogs eat. Eeeeeewwww. 2) A wooly worm landed on my shoulder. Aaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeee. In other important news, Bob Evans [...]

Just because the item ON the cookie sheet is still cold after it came out of a hot oven, the cookie sheet itself will still most likely be hot.

So anyway, Friday I had LASIK surgery. (Even better than that, I had the day off of work…yayayay!) Anyway, my appointment was yesterday at 9:30 AM, way in downtown Cheesecake City, so the alarm actually went off at 6:30 AM. Which is an entire half hour earlier than my normal alarm. Pffht. And I’d already [...]

So! My birthday weekend is over But! I had a great time. Thursday: Slept in until 9:30. Gene took an exam towards his certification (two down, three to go! Oh and he passed it, yay!) and I went to the Talbots outlet and Old Navy (yes, the treaded Old Navy…I give up; their cheap tshirts [...]

So! I am off work for four glorious days. YAYAYAYAYAY. Today, I slept in until 9:30. And yes, it was glorious. Even with the weird dreams (is it from the new Lexapro, the nightly Ambien or has even my subconscious had enough of me dreaming about payroll?). Sleeping in is one of those rare times [...]

First, I want a vacation. I have four days off for my birthday (happy dance) but nonetheless, I want a damn vacation. I want to take the dogs to the kennel, pack my suitcase (and, if I have to, Gene’s suitcase) and get on a plane and land somewhere cool. Hawaii, or Vegas, or, Hell’s [...]

So, I am writing this using White Dog. If you’re guessing that it’s because Silver Dog is broken, you’re wrong. Actually, I just needed a username and password from White Dog because I had it saved here and haven’t logged onto that site in the Silver Dog era. After we bought Silver Dog, I spent [...]
