Gene and I watched a movie today. It’s called “The Ten” and it’s all humorous sketches about the Ten Commandments. (Yes this really is Elaine’s blog and yes, I’m still an atheist). Anyway – the reason I wanted to watch it was because it starred many of the people from the 1990s sketch comedy show…

Please stop trying to rip off my leg…
…just in case you wondered how my leg/hip/ass-area injury was faring. (Oh, and my trainer said the injury is in my “oblique” area, which I guess is a French term for leg/hip/ass-area). (oh, and BTW, I just realized that the title of this post makes almost no sense. I’m trying to say that it feels…
On an unrelated note…
Since coming home 27 hours ago, I have both injured myself (somewhere between my hip and my ass – my trainer tried to show me where it was but I can’t remember the technical term) and caught a cold. (Holy crap if I gave that baby a cold I will leap into traffic – possibly…
Home
So we’re home from our longish weekend in Maryland to visit with the baaaaaaby (and his parents). The baby is something like 4 weeks old and weighing in at 8 lbs, something ounces. I spent a lot of time on Saturday talking alone with the mother. I really feel like she’s someone I can really…
Now here’s hoping that Scoob and Betty don’t get big heads…
Respect the Beagle! Congratulations to Uno the 15-inch “traditional” (my term) Beagle, Best in Show at Westminster. (I know, I know, they’re like Nazis but still … look at the cute, cute doggies!) That said – please, please, please, if you’re thinking of adopting a dog, please go no further than petfinder.com. I would not…
Free at last, free at last…
etc, etc, I am free at last… So, remember when I wrote that everything Old(Boss) is New(Boss) again? Well, it’s official. I’m now back to being under Human Resources’ wing. So now I have to really bring my A game to work. Gwendolyn (f/k/a Old Boss f/k/a Old New Boss) checks internet cookies. Yikes. What…
Hey, what happened?
Harumph. Friggin’ 30 degree day today. (Well, OK, the high was technically 49 but it was 32 when I was walking outside to drop our taxes off at the accountant’s). So much for my glorious balmy February. Gene’s talking about uprooting us to KANSAS – probably no balmy Julys there, let alone Februarys. (The move…
O, the land of cloudless days…
It is February. It is over 60 degrees. Convertible envy came early this year. (mmm, Toyota Solara). I know I’ll curse this when it’s 80 degrees on Thanksgiving again but right now it’s lovely. I have an entire drawer of sweaters that have remained unworn AGAIN this year. Seriously, my fellow Northerners. Move here now….
Hi, my name is Elaine…
…and I like to torture myself by going to Petfinder.com. The whole deal is that Gene and I have a deal – three dogs and no human baby or two dogs and 1 baby. Obviously, we have the 2 dogs part taken care of. Sometimes, I really want a third dog. I have named her…
Why yes, this quiz does come from Noggin’s website…
(BTW – up there where it says that I wake my brain up by reading the news, just imagine it says “By watching The Colbert Report and reading DListed”).
