Week In Review:

Monday- I wake up and notice that for the fourth straight day in a row there are massive amounts of kitty puke. At least on Monday he was courteous enough to throw it up into his food dish, thereby eliminating the need for carpet stain remover. Note to self; find an excuse to rid self of cream carpet soon. Make appointment for...

I think my kitty is sick.

I hope his vet bill isn't extreme....

Ugh, of course I get sick my first day back to work...

I need to go on a diet... my cat is kneading my stomach...

maybe with a little less alcohol and if I could stop using my damn breadmaker....
that thing is going to turn me into a 700 pound woman that never leaves the house......

of course, if I got rid of it, all I'd have to do is put the doughball on my stomach...

I love my little town, but we're not delusional around here. Aside from a drunken night at Lu and Ruby's, ice skating at central park or canoeing down the Huron River, we do have to leave town to do things sometimes. Like... shop. Or... get gas. Or go to work. Or to the bank, for that matter. We need more crap in this town, something...

2 Days until vacation.
In the meantime, I took a sick day.
I somehow cracked the crap out of my elbow and bruised my entire left upper arm. I succumbed to pressure to go to the emergency room after I was promised that they would not take me to Huron Valley (I call it Death Valley). The emergency room said I may have chipped a...

Today is another meeting at another locale with a million people I talk to every day.
weeeeeeeee
I think it's about the conference call we had yesterday.
Such is corporate America.
Life is.. ok.
So busy.
7 Days until Vacation!
yay!

Well, the past few days have been insanely busy, but not with the usual holiday bustle that you would think.
It all started Friday night with a few drinks and the news that our friend Kim had gone into labor. We got home around 3 am, woke up at 10 and set off to go do our days errands, like go to pick up Nick's...

Holy crap it has been a whole month without an update!

So, here's the update.
It's hunting season, which means I should have a lot of free time. Except for the whole everyone needs a vacation thing. So, last week I worked from 8 in the morning to 8 at night everyday except Thursday and Friday. Friday I had the wonderful experience of being at...

What a beautiful weekend!
Friday I ventured over to the neighbors to drink their beer and hang out with the fire department. Those guys are a smashing good time... We drank a lot, I got wasted and stumbled the long walk home (probably 10 yards...)
Saturday I worked... and I think I'm finally getting a handle on this management thing. HAHA... It's simply keeping calm...

Dear Neighbors,

If you ever, ever take a glimpse over at my house, and think to yourself, "God, they're such nice people, but their terrible (lack of) landscaping is bringing my property value down," please, feel free to landscape for us, especially when one of us happens to be on the other side of the world enjoying beer and German chocolate and I am left...
