I wrote a whole post last night, and then for who-knows-what reason, I decided to throw in an old ad from Pearl Drops Tooth Polish, and going to YouTube to get it made my whole screen freeze up and I lost the post.
Rest assured it was the Greatest Post Ever Writen, and now that I have to re-do it today I will be dull as dishwater.
Hi. How are you? I am fine. The weather is lovely.
See?
Many things happened this weekend, including the part where I went to Office Depot and bought a new memory card for my camera, because I figured out that the other day? When I lost said card in my GIANT SLOT on the side of my computer? Damaged it. It took me taking 9 million seven hundred photos that did not turn out before this dawned on me.
And guess who was not at Office Depot? My Office Depot kitties! I went all the way back there, calling "kittykittykittykittykitty" until finally Mousepad showed himself but would not come near me. I told the checkout girl that I was sad to not see the kitties, and she said, "Did you try behind the building?" (I had), and when I told her I had named everyone, I could see her getting more and more concerned.
"Heh. Inkjet. Yeah. That's...cute," she said, pressing the button for security.
Apparently my new calm Wen hair does not detract from the part where I seem insane.
Anyway, as you can imagine, I stampeded home and put in that memory card and took pictures of the rest of my day.
Srysly, mom. Dis not funny. Let GO.
Do you know what I need? Is a nicer entryway rug. I like how these things don't bug me till I show you photos.
for love of god, mom. you need helps.
We stopped and visited with my neighbor Paul, the 96-year-old, but I didn't take pictures of that. I didn't want to delve into the whole, "Can I put you on my blog? Well, a blog is..." thing with a 96-year-old.
I did, however, manage to capture on film Mandy, the Puggle who barks maniacally at us every.single.day. Once Mandy was on a walk at the same time we were and you should have seen her act like she'd never noticed us before. "Those big dogs? Why no! Mandy never screech like an idiot at those dogs!"
Mandy has the back yard of two houses, and the houses are on different sides of the block, because apparently the people are related or something. My point is, she runs over and yells at us from one of her yards, then 10 minutes later she sees us on the other street and does it all over again. Mandy is a rocket scientist.
Later in the day, I forced Marvin to come over and put up my new curtains. He brought his tools in a nice Fresh Step container. I do not use Fresh Step. Well. I use a toilet. But I mean I do not BUY it for my cats. Too smelly. Which I realize is ironic.
"Will you stop DOCUMENTING everything?" Marvin said, and I reminded him, "Whooooo used to say, 'Oh! You'd be a good blogger! You should try blogging! Why don't you blog?'" I used that Marvin voice that makes him sound like a buffoon. Or Mandy. Whichever.
Anyway, am excited to have new curtains, which I could ill afford. Note my decorative grommets! Grommets sounds like a Sesame Street character.
When Marvin and I first got curtains, we measured wrong or something and they never stretched all the way across, a fact that tortured my mother. Honestly, the curtains thing has kept her up nights for the last two years. The only thing I could have done to torment her more would have been to vote Republican.
After Marvin left and I campaigned for Mitt Romney, I joined my friend Hibiscus Wilson for dinner.
Of course I brought my camera.
We had a great time--I got the ahi tuna. When it got there, I said, "Ah, hi! Tuna!"
How do you stand my hilarity?
There was a woman behind us who looked exactly like Sarah Palin had Sarah Palin put on a few. Honestly, it was jarring. I took her picture, because I'm subtle, but now I feel too bad to put it up here. What if Chubby Sarah reads this blog? What if she has no idea she is full-figured? Anyway, trust me. Ask Hibiscus if you don't believe me.
Okay. Going now. I would throw in something from YouTube but now I hate that place.
