Every moron who who pissed and moaned about the snow and the dark in mid-January can suck it. Now it's so damn hot you can't even stand to be outside. At least snow is pretty. Burnt grass and cracked earth not so much.

I'm a Fall/Winter person though. I would much rather wear 7 layers of clothes than stand in line at the grocery between...

Worked around the farm till I got sick at my stomach, took a break, then worked some more. Yay.

It's as hot here as anywhere but still things are rusting, different things need new parts, etc. etc.

Got my Swedish foam bed and it is killer. I fall asleep sooo quickly! I haven't managed to stay asleep yet, I still toss and turn, but less...

So the Swiss think it's okay for adults to have sex with 13 year olds?

That was cool. I just dumped the entire contents of my refridgerator door.

Luvamoose has had a bit of dry coat/skin lately so I've been putting melted butter on her kibble. I was turning to put the mega tub of butter back in the fridge when it slipped out of my hand. The tub hit the rail on the top door shelf which caused a...

Congratulation to Spain.

Here's hoping I never hear a vuvuzela again, that all Jubulanis are collected and burned, and some system is put in to register when the ball goes into the goal.

Brazil, you have to do better, there's no way you could do worse.

Saw my first ever episode of The Hills last night. I haven't laughed that hard in a long, long time.

Slow night at work, paired with a gal who was really into The Hills, we watched I think 5 hours of it. She knew everybody's name and where they (didn't) work. I guess it's been on for years, and she's been watching it for years....

The freaky, scarey owl from The Secret of NIMH tried to kill me last night. Or at least carry off me off.

Sucker was huge, I thought it was an airborne speckled bear. I go out to get something out of the rain last night and as I turn on the truck headlights I see this speckly brown flying crucifix like 5 feet wide swoop...

Ack! I think I killed my mower! Change the national threat level, we're at defcon 1. Dammit man, this is the Midwest. A man without a mower is nothing. King of the Hill drama is about to ensue.

Men will gather in a circle 'round the wounded beast and speak in hushed, short sentences. Brows will be furrowed, lips pursed, heads scratched. Like at Mayo,...

Heat has chased me indoors. Seems like all I do is play Bioshock. S'okay though, because of late I seem to have very little use for people.

I am usually all up with people but for the past week or so about 3 seconds after someone begins speaking to me I am completely bored with them, and ready to get up and walk away. I...

Went and shopped for mattresses today! Foam is king! I could not believe how wonderful the foam matresses were. I must have one.

Got back to sleep. Mercifully.

Heat broke and it is paradise here. It was barely 60 last night and with all the fans going I slept like the bear I am, safely ensconced in warm slickery nylon covers.

Been downloading all kinda music lately. Old Lemonheads, Shakespeare's Sister, Luscious Jackson, etc. I daresay I am building a ferocious list of one hit wonders. Also some...

Insomnia is the worst. I spent way too much downloading music. I watched YouTube. I tossed. I turned. I shopped for a new computer. I had a bowl or raisin bran, but I could not sleep. I drug myself through work, it was awful.

Cross your fingers for today. Sheets, don't fail me now.
