Queen of Rambles

I think there were aliens abroad the other night, but I just couldn’t see them. They were invisible and the exact shape of some sort of cold virus. Now I’m down with a cold and am getting sick and tired of snot dripping out of my nose. Lovely. Just lovely. [...]

Leave me completely alone for 24 hours and bad things happens.
In the last 24 hours I’ve survived an alien invasion, my grandmother, a confused duckling, a 911 emergency, an unexpected e-mail and a naughty kitty. And I almost have the house cleaned.
So let’s start at the beginning, shall we?
It was 2:45 am. [...]

For having a day off, it sure seems like I wasn’t as productive as I would have liked to be. I did do a lot of touch up painting and got the tape off the walls. Let me give you a clue: blue painter’s tape needs to die a thousand deaths. Purple [...]

I’ve only been up for an hour, but so far I’ve been annoyed beyond belief. Here’s why:
1) I woke up with a raging headache.
2) I didn’t do dishes yet again, so had to wait for the improperly routed hot water to go all the way around the house before coming to the sink (my [...]

I think I’ve figured out that I don’t want to be a librarian. I spent almost all day being a fake librarian. Actually, I’m sure I was doing something that not many actual librarians have to do: re-shelving books. We had a half-day at school, but that didn’t mean the aids [...]

You know things have hit an all-time low when you’re licking your yogurt out of the cup and trying to convince yourself you’re not a slovenly pig with no clean dishes. I was just pretending it was an ice cream cone! Honest!
It’s a good thing we have a four day weekend coming up. [...]

I’m feeling mighty blahtastic right now. If my period wasn’t just a week gone I’d swear I had PMS. Maybe I have Post-MS which would also be PMS but post. That made no sense.
I am feeling bitter and lonely and want to burst into big crocodile tears. I think I miss [...]

I have not been sleeping well since my dear hubbo has left me. I need something to curl up with. His sister’s funeral is planned for June 3, so he is trying to extend his trip. I probably won’t see him till the fifth or even sixth, depending on how everything goes. [...]

Holy cow! I’ve been one busy girl today. Now I know the secret of skinny people–they stay busy! I didn’t eat lunch until 5:30 and was absolutely starving by that time.
I got up, looked at the bathroom and realized it wasn’t totally horrendous. In fact, it looked really good. [...]

Reason #4674 I love Mike: Whenever I come up with a great and wonderful project he’ll give me the look that means oh-so-much. “You’ll never finish, you’ll get bored, it’s hard work, it’s not worth the effort and it’s way too expensive!” He doesn’t have to say a word. I’ll see [...]
