Oh yeah, Alison's definitely going to HATE me when she's older!!! :D
It is a gorgeous fall day outside today...mid-60's with a light breeze. I love it! I've opened all the windows to air the place out and it feels good. The cats are loving it as well...lounging on the windowsills, smelling outside smells and sleeping in the sun.
Mostly working on getting laundry done - the big stuff, like all the animal blankets and bed covers. Maybe later I will do something exhilarating like clean out the litter boxes or vacuum. Heh. Sometime today or tomorrow I also need to finish going through my clothes. I have sweaters, t-shirts, and shorts left to do.
For entertainment I am watching stupid, thriller-type movies and having romp sessions with the dogs. Sadie LOVES chasing the laser-pointer dot (aka The Dot) around the house. The cats like to join in too...Moo will then grab the nearest toy and chase Sadie with it. She doesn't get The Dot, but she does get that Sadie is playing and so she tries to play with her. Sometimes Moo will decide the kitties are more fun to play with than a toy and then things get a little crazy for a bit. Bonnie doesn't mind, but OP gets a little freaked out. It isn't nice, I know, but it is pretty funny to watch.
While scooping the yard today, I noticed a bunch of small "den" holes all over the side yard and down the hill a ways. I have no idea what made the holes...I am hoping something cute and furry and not slithery with fangs. I'll be keeping an eye out for the residents. It is bigger than an insect type thing (which is good!) and doesn't look like any kind of mole hills I've seen. Maybe a gopher type thing? I don't know. We'll see.
Time to change out the laundry.
One small world, folks.
One small world, one life each.
Why fuck it all up.
I just had a wrong number. For Elric.
What is the first thought that goes through your head?
Cos mine was Elric? Fuck! Will he have Stormbringer and call on the Dukes of Hell?
Not good on a Friday evening.
I find people (and by people, I mean people who are mere acquaintances or even perfect strangers...I find I have a different set of 'rules' for people whom I consider friends) who openly admonish another's eating choices to be interesting (in an annoying sort of way). This week while I was on the road, the manager of the branch I was reviewing caught me eating a Clif Bar for breakfast. She very quickly jumped into a diatribe about how much sugar they had in them and how I really ought to be eating something else. She then went to her office and came back with three different "protein" bars that she likes.
This morning as I took first Moo then Sadie out for their mid morning potty breaks there was a TON of crashing through the bushes down in the clearing. Finally, I caught a glimpse of two, very happy, very free yellow labs! LOL They both look healthy - one is definitely younger than the other. My guess is maybe mom and kid or something like that. The younger one was bouncing and jumping on the other one and putting on play moves. The older one was just enjoying being out and smelling smells.
How about a bullet list? Cos I am seriously not up to much, but it has been soo long since I posted anything of note.
- When Husband said to Daughter OK, what is it you want to talk about, then? I think the properties of light and its structure were the last things he expected to hear. Open University course on physics has now been paid for (by Daughter), so we might get more of those sort of questions in the future.
- This has has been struck by plague. Eldest Son had three weeks off work, so of course he got flu halfway through his holiday, passing it on first to Daughter and then to Me. Husband was in Rome, networking in the computer world, and seems to have missed it. Middle Son and Youngest both got it very lightly indeed.
- Daughter has had her first Celebrity Sighting since starting a new job in Hampstead = Russell Brand and Katy Perry. Though when she rushed out the door to look, he was staring at it, so she was red faced and embarrassed. Apparently Hampstead has a LOT of celebrities.
- And French men selling onions and garlic from bicycles, though not with a beret or a striped jumper. darn.
- Fireworks make Heidi WOOF!
