Bathroom Fun

This must be so fun!  Every batch of foster kittens manages to unroll a roll of toilet paper.  How do they all know about this game?!  Wonder if there’s a place adults could go for this kind of activity.

5 Reasons Why I Hate Delta Burke

Wednesday, 30. April 2008 15:16

1. She stole my bed at the Emergency Room
2. See #1
3. See #1
4. See #1
5. Stealing my bed at the ER left me sitting writhing in pain in a plastic waiting room chair barfing in a Target bag (sorry Target, and sorry everyone who had to just read that) (the truth isn’t always pretty)

Damn-Dumb-Delta Burke
Look at her all innocent-like

Ever have a kidney stone? Imagine a red hot knife being jabbed around your innards, it feels something like that…only worse. Perhaps, then, you can imagine what it’s like sitting in a waiting room in this condition just waiting for a bed to open. That’s how it was with me Monday afternoon. After counting the patients coming and going I knew that it was almost my turn…MY TURN. But who comes into the Emergency Room? Yep, Delta Burk with her hubby Gerald McRaney stating that her doctor sent her because she has "dangerously low" blood pressure. Yeah…only…does *ahem* "dangerously low" blood pressure actually hurt your innards? I think not. I was TRUMPED by Delta Burke at the Emergency Room.

I leaned over to my friend who took me and with tears streaming down my face said, "I hate that Delta Burke!"

As a side note: Delta, if you read this, I do hope you get better. I wish you no ill will, but when it comes to MY bed in the ER…I get a little territorial. You would, too.

House pecking order

Beebo likes to remind the house that he’s in charge. Beebo is having a little snack…while Bella eats a little plastic and looks on.

I just got home from my friend Linda’s play.  It’s a review of all the shows this particular theater has done, ever.  She’s got a solo and she’s the lead in a couple others.  She’s very good.  Well done Linda!

So I’m sitting here watching the news.  Dude, it was 95 degrees today.  Tomorrow?  100.  I hate this, I really do.  What do you think of surfing on Sunday?  I’d still go to church, of course.  Is that so horrible of me?  It’s 11:18pm right now and my air conditioner is still on and it’s EIGHTY degrees still.

Canon S3 IS

Friday, 25. April 2008 20:16

Many of you may remember that I took a trip to Zihuatanejo Mexico. It was both a happy trip (it was free) and a very sad trip (some @#%%# airline personnel stole my camera). I loved my camera, it was fantastic and it took great pictures and I miss it. It was a Canon S2 IS and after doing some research I decided not to replace it with the newest model, the S5, but to replace it with the older S3. I hate it. I really hate it.

I’ve read blogs, I’ve read reviews, I’ve taken suggestions but I cannot get it to take a good picture. I mean, seriously they’re washed out, or they’re too dark to even see, or they’re blurry, or any number of things. The zoom SUCKS. Every time I zoom in and take a picture, blurry. It’s really pissing me off. I’ve tried the auto mode, I’ve tried the shutter speed priority setting, I’ve tried the aperture priority setting and they’re all equally bad. I’ve set the ISO to Auto, to 80 to 100…nothing. So yeah, I’m getting fed up.

So, if you have suggestions I wanna hear them. I’m considering selling it on ebay and purchasing an SLR. More expensive, but perhaps a better choice. I dunno, but I’m very sad and mad.

Trying this on for size

Friday, 25. April 2008 15:12

…what do you think?  Does this new blog make me look fat?

We’re still under construction at the moment as I figure everything out, but this should be the basic layout.

Popular?

Thursday, 24. April 2008 20:25

I must be so popular now because I’m getting all sorts of comments from what I believe to be non-human visitors. So, now you must enter a word verification to leave a comment. But leave comments still, kay?

…don’t hate me because I’m careful.
