The first person to guess correctly wins…well, my apologies for turning into a drunk hockey player/truck driver. Gene left for VA this morning and will return early Friday AM. While he’s gone I need to get things finished for the Dog Park pass. The SAHM next door has hers so Gene wants to know where…
Grrrr (don’t read at work…in fact, just skip this regardless)
Remember when I said before that today was a good day? I liiiied, lied, lied. Like a rug. Valentine’s Day isn’t usually a hearts and flowers day for Gene and I, but usually it’s better than THIS. Called Gene at midday to see if he’d go for lunch…oh, no, problem calls at work and he’s…
Puppy Kisses…
Awwww. Happy Valentines Day, all! For V-Day, the dogs got Gene Aqua di Gio cologne (mmm!) and they got me a gift certificate to the salon. All in all, a good day.
Knoxville…
I’m finally home for the night (it’s 9:30 on Saturday). Here’s my weekend (so far): Friday: Left work at 11:30 am when Gene picked me up in the chariot (rented Jaguar XJ8 — totally yuck and not in a princessy “Oh, the rented Jag AGAIN?” way, more in a “what a POS!” way). I love…
Layers — and not layer cake, either…
I stole this from a 16 year old’s blog…. LAYER ONE: BASIC Name: Elaine Birth date: 3/22/77 Birthplace: Indianapolis, IN. And if you call it “India-no-place” I’ll break your jaw. Current Location: The Beautiful South Eye Color: Green (?) Hair Color:brown at the top, blonder toward the bottom Height: 5 foot 5 Righty or Lefty:…
well, FINE THEN…
As I mentioned awhile back, AOL is no longer supporting Usenet Newsgroups. Apparently Catholics run AOL support, because they seem to have made Ash Wednesday the day I click my “Usenet” icon and beep! the box says “Invalid Favorite Place”. Well, TFB, AOL. Usenet is NOT an invalid favorite place. It’s a very FREAKING VALID…
Million Dollar Idea…
So my friend Julie and I have hatched a brilliant scheme for a business: registering for baby stuff for busy expectant mothers. We could do the whole darn thing; interview the parents about their likes (do they like hip stuff? country stuff? cheap stuff?), register at wherever for them (probably BRU and Target, but frankly there are…
Am I Backwards?
A few weeks ago, I watched (or at least finished watching) two movies from the PVR. I don’t know if I’ve talked about them yet. They were The House of Mirth and Laurel Canyon. I’m concerned about being backwards because one of them was critically acclaimed and one was disliked by the critics. And my…
Puppy Bowl…
awww… The Puppy Bowl is on Animal Planet. It’s definitely the weirdest counterprogramming to the (real) Super Bowl. I theorize that it started out as Animal Planet planning to have dogs play football, but when they realized the puppies were…well, puppies…they went with the second approach, which is basically 3 hours of puppies playing, drinking…
I’m still standing…
(yeah, yeah, yeah…) Just got back from a fabulous weekend in Gene’s home town. Everytime I get back from a visit I think “Millions of people vacation HERE?” So anyway, I got home from work Friday at the usual time to find Gene on a conference call, half packed and not ready to leave. We…
