Because my blog is kind of suckish right now...

...and because I need to focus on the positive, here are the highlights of the first two days of this week:

Hugs from Grace Choi.

Lee Palace with Wheeler & LBo.

How stinkin' funny these camp kids are, even if they don't listen.

Thither hugs.

Finally getting my Heidi Bug to the groomer.  She needed it, and I don't feel guilty about it anymore.

This re-run of NCIS.  Ziva gets to be Zurich to Mark Harmon's USA and Daniel Gillies' England. 
I'm not really paying attention to the plot, but Switzerland's a pretty good place to be this episode.

"I bet there's not one person who doesn't like Kate."

I bet there is, sweet Middle Sister, but I'm gonna try my hardest not to think about it.

Possibly the Funniest Conversation with T-Money Ever

Preschool gold.  Right here.


[As we're pulling out of T's school]

T: When are we going to my house? I'm thirsty.  And hungry.

K: We're going there right now, so we can take care of both of these things.

T: Good.  I'm thirsty.  And hungry.  And tired.

K: Well, we can take care of all of these things at home.

T: I have to go to Atlanta with my Daddy tomorrow to pick up my sisters.

K: Are you excited?

T: Well, I might have to pee.

K: Oh, yeah?

T: Yeah.  I had to pee last time, so I had to stick out my wiener and pee in a bottle.
     I really had to pee.

K: Oh, no!

T: In the bottle.

K: Wow.

T: [mumbles incoherently]

K: Do you have to pee now?

T: No.

K: Oh, okay.

T: Wait, yes.  (Behold the power of suggestion...)

K: All right, well, we're almost home.

T: I'll wait till I get home.  I don't want to show my wiener to everybody.

K: We all appreciate that.

T: (Not a minute later) I wonder when we'll be home.  I have to pee.  And I'm thirsty and hungry and tired.

[We turn the corner and pass The Burger King]

T: Maybe we could go to Burger King.

K: Not now, but maybe later.

T: Awww!

K: We've got to get home so you can go pee!

T: And I need to get a drink and a snack and a nap...

Amy Lea, you're not allowed to read this (Thar be evil eight-legged freaks)

It's official.

The spiders want to see me naked.

It's been a while (since Valentine's Day, to be precise), but I finally had my second perilous shower experience.
I go to get in the shower this morning, and there are three, count them, 3, of the little devils in the bathroom.

 1...

 2...

3. 

ARRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Being the red-headed, blood-thirsty barbarian that I am, they're all dead now.

Take heed, perverts, sex fiends, and anybody else who might ever attempt to see my nakey in the shower!

You try anything cute, and I'll wrap you up in toilet paper and flush you down the toilet, too.

Life Plateau = Large (Unhealthy?) Amount of Calvin & Hobbes

I think he could have stopped at the second panel.

That would describe my feelings on a daily basis.  

I am a bear of so little of them, after all.

I feel like a bump on a log.

Nothing exciting to report.

A week from today I'll be at the beach.

A month from today (fingers crossed) I'll be in OKC.

I have no idea what's coming.
