Sunday

Had turkey at sherry's yesterday. It was really good. Samara and Donavan are going to my parents today for dinner (aparently). I was called a parenting nazi yesterday by my stepfather. He asked what time Samara went to bed on the weekends adn I told him 7. So now I am "like the germans" in his words. (Pretty sure that an early bedtime doesnt QUITE equate with cultural genocide but hes the ex military type so guess hes right. (Sarcasm drippings and all)). She isnt even 5 yet (tomorrow lol). She has no interest in staying up on the weekdays let alone weeknights. If i let her stay up she would be tired and crabby on the weekdays getting up before 8. How would it be any different on the weekends? Not like my nearly 5 year old would sleep in or anything... Shes not 14. Anywho.

Noone believes they will take donavan so we shall see.

I really want to clean up. Genuinely... I need a hyposis book on not being a slob anymore!

I got a bunch of corny new music last night MWAHAH so i might try to clean to it.

Saturday

So watched Hancock this afternoon. I really liked it but i dont think kevin will. I guess going into it i had NO idea what the movie was about so it really wasnt what I was expecting but i LOVE Will Smith (Kev hates him) so this was a great Will Smith movie :)



I think Im going to clean up the house a bit then who knows. :)

Kev said he would be home early so maybe hell be around by then.



We're going to sherry's for turkey dinner tomorrow. Kevs brother will be there with his kids. Kev and I ahve agree'd we need to prepare Samara for his neice Kassidy but how? its so complicated.



Well off to tidy.

Holy Good Grief

I am BORED.

ughhhhh boredy bored bored.

Was supposed to go shopping today with my sister. My mother wanted to tag along and I was frightened and anxiety ridden. they called when they were on teh way and told kev to get smaara ready (I was outside with donavan waiting) and he came down and told me and I was inwardly FREAKING out. Samara was NOT coming. Nothing was changing becuase my mother was now involved. (besides that we were supposed to go at 5 but my mother wanted 6, ugh.)

AMAZINGLY it didnt go too bad. Mind you I always feel left out when it comes to my mother and sister becuase they ahve a relationship where i have none personally with my mother besides she being my children's grnadmother and I dont talk to my sister often (thought she did clean my messy house twice). But it wasnt bad.

Now kevin is withhis brother (home soon?) and i am here bored.

In other great news my buddy kelly FINALLY emailed and then called me. FINALLY. lol. its been a MONTH. I had to cut short cause my phone died and when i tried to call this evening there was no answer so GOD knows when Ill be able to actually talk to her. I cant call her normally now in teh evenings anyway cause kevs generally home in teh evening and she works during the day. I invited her around next weekend so well see. So much to tell her.
She is the BEST and MOST AWESOME listener i have ever met. a real kindred spirit. HAHA. maybe well get married and have genius, over-analitical and a little bit crazy kids. Who knows? LOL.

Some Cats

This is Peepers. Named for the noise she made as a kitten instead of meowing. She is an oddball. Her body is at least 3 times as big as it should be considering her tiny head.





This is Elphaba. Named for The Wicked Witch of the West from the story Wicked. Why? you ask why name a kitten after the Wicked Witch? A) I didnt want a kitten much like Elphaba's parents didnt want a green child. and B) she looked ugly, miserable and evil... and now she looks... ugly miserable and pitiful. She is just a baby still and likes to curl up with someone. Including Mr. Donavan while he is playing.

And Valentine. Named for a conbination of Kevin Bacon's Character in Tremors and a character in a romance novel that I love. He is a very high strung sookiebaby.


Valentine is Donavan's special buddy.

The Top (howevermany) People Who SHould NOT Be Allowed To Roam The Streets Unattended.

listbutton

Starting with the MOST ANNOYING!!!!!!!

1) Crowds of people who stand on the sidewalk and chat. And by crowd I mean 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 12 people, or even 1 FRICKING PERSON IN THE MIDDLE NOT MOVING FOR PEDESTRIANS. On my HURRIED way to get Samara this afternoon (I live ohhh about 7 minutes from teh school by foot and left the house today at ohhhhh 4 minutes to 'go-home-bell-time' ) I make it to the front of the school in a record 4 minutes (past the creepy crossing guard even) and am FLYING until I hit the group of 4 adults, 2 strollers, and baby in arms all talking at once while 1 toddler was SCREAMING for attention in the middle of the sidewalk, flanked by bumpy grass. (Yes i DO enjoy run on sentences, Don't you?). Did I rudely tell them to MOVE THEIR ASSES SO I COULD PASS WITH MY NOT NEGLECTED KID? Nah. I was in a hurry and so gave them an awful look, Informed Donavan LOUDLY that If i caught him in teh middle of the sidewalk ever NOT WALKING I would Kick his ass to the grass for being so RUDE and bolted over teh lawn. (donavan has since requested "Holy Shit Handles" for teh stroller for the next time we do offroad in an umbrella stroller.) And Yes I made it in time to meet samara. and Yes I Do like RANDOM caps. Keeps things pretty. Anyway...

2) People who block the sidewalk and the walkway from my house so their DOGS can sniff the bushed by my yard when I am trying to pass. The the guy's ugly scruffy little DOG had the AUDACITY to BARK at me as I tried to go around them (again ONTO THE LAWN).

3) SLOWWALKING PEOPLE WHO DONT MOVE TO LET YOU BY even when you make alot of noise behind them and tell your child, "Dont worry Donavan, well be back on our speedy way soon."



4) Old men at the local dive bar. nough said.

5) That creeepy crazy mouthwash drinking dude who lives UPTOWN BESIDE THE THEATER in the same building as legal aid. wtf? Not even a residential zone im SURE. I dont know anyone who doesnt cross the street away from there, even when headed for the legal aid lawyer or to see a movie...


6) My friend Deb

(KIDDING!!!! go read her blog. It is interestingly different ;);) youll learn something... what? I dont know ;) go see. Go Deb... see ya monday)

Off Joke ;)

Thought I would clarify on my last post ;)

It was a joking reference to the amazon.com ads I added the other day.

I love amazon.com. We buy ALOT of movies from there and I buy 99.9% of all of my books off the site.

I actually forgot about the other ads, and if i broke a TOS rule with my last post i am AWFULLY SARRY.

I really dont mean to make any money (or aparently annonomous friends, teehee) but rather I an experimenting and "spreading my blog wings" if you will.

Maybe I broke another TOS by telling how much I love amazon?

I could complain a bit about the couple of STUPIDDDD movies kevin bought off there... Try Zombie Lake. It was a classic... The fact that the DVD gave the option of dressed or naked versions, WOW.

But that is kevs fault.

Or that the last book I bought from there took an extra MONTH to get here...

But once it arrived it was in PERFECT never read condition... I paid a cent for it plus shipping... cant complain there. ;)

Never the less,

Just thought I would respond to my annonomous commenter ;)

Do come again, darlin.
