SIL is doing well and so is Cletus. Sounds like she’ll be in the hospital until the baby is born, on or around the 29th of April. If memory serves, this will make him about a month early overall. In addition, they’re moving (well, my BIL is) into the new house on the 28th. And…

So I’ve spent a lot of time recently on the phone with my grandfather (Dad’s dad). I’ve mentioned him before on the ‘blog but now I want to talk about him again. Grandpa is now retired to a small Southern retiree town but during his professional career, he was very successful. At one point, he…

Cleaned the fridge. By “cleaned” I mean, I took each shelf out and washed it with soap and hot water. I also got rid of any expired foods I hadn’t already disposed of (I’m pretty fanatical about expiration dates as you may know). It looks so good! And then I went to the grocery and…

You know, for the most part, I. Hate. My. Job. But on days like this, when I breeze in, fiddle around and breeze out at noon, not to be seen again until Wednesday, I don’t mind it at all. It’s easier to like your job (or workplace – these are terms I easily confuse) when…

Criminey! I am a total fruitcake. Or else, someone’s logging onto Blogger and editing my posts so I look like a total dumbass… Anyway…In my previous post, I meant to bring upon the many plagues of EGYPT, not Europe. Ugh. Today: Worked all day (and the day flew by and I’m not sure how it…

Sorry for the lack of new posts, Blogger was having issues. I get what I pay for (Blog is free). The last two days have been very good. Friday, I worked all day, picked up two eager beagles and came home to neaten up the house and relax a bit. The chore list had the…

If the way the ‘blog looks weirds you out, right click and select encoding and click on left-to-right page and that should fix it. Me, I kinda like it…RIGHT NOW… I feel like Yoda. Or, like Yoda I feel. Hmm, I blame it on the Star Wars Episode III Pepsi I bought today at the…

So I had all those ambitious plans for last night…here’s what REALLY happened… Got a Patty-Cure Played a little Sploofus (a few trivia games, not a lot). Speaking of Sploofus, WTG Patty for making it to level 2 and earning me a boat load of points. Hurray! Updated iPod, adding around 200 songs. Didn’t eat…

I was driving to work yesterday when the Tori Amos version of Leonard Cohen’s Famous Blue Raincoat came on the iPod. Yuck. Those who know me often know I dislike her, but hearing her butchering of the song is just annoying. She uses the intake of air as another instrument and she’s just…too…fucking…precious. Thanks for…

1.First name? Elaine 2. Were you named after anyone? My grandmother (dad’s mom) and supposedly some girl mom went to school with, but I think that was just to cheer me up for being named Elaine 3. Do you wish on stars? never tried 4. When did you last cry? I don’t remember 5. Do…
