Quick Note

1) If you end up "sleeping" in the car with Adventure Sport Allison after midnight, her happy squeals of joy will set off a Volkswagon's car alarm if it is parked catty-corner to you. Twice.

2) If you use your husband's keys while driving "your" van (re: the company vehicle), be sure that you can't accidently shift your knee and drive his thumb drive into the key. While going 80 mph. On I-74. In the fast lane. It tends to turn the van off and into "Accessory Power Mode."

Dead French Guys and Rodents

So we have one squirrel in particular that frequents our backyard, and spends quality time hanging out on our decks. In fact, he must think he's a cat in the same way Truman thinks he's a squirrel since he'll lay across the upstairs deck's bannister in the same way that Truman will lay in the window a few feet away. What's amusing about this guy is that he has a really scraggly tail, is really skinny...and has an amazingly big package. Which you can see when he stretches to get up on the roof, right at eye level as you innocently try to walk through the dining room. For this, I have named him Balzac.

The advantage...

...to painting your children's nursery spring-booger green, is that if they sneeze on the walls (which they are certain to have our allergies), it won't matter at all =).

My Proudest Moment of the Week:

I managed to buy blueberries from a very nice Amish guy without telling him the "How do you make a Mennonite go crazy? Tell him to go pee in the corner of his barn (since their barns are round) joke." Ahhh.

Thoughts from today:

I'm either going to helmet or leash Al. Adam suggests helmet, since she'd eat the leash.

I am going to make Jenna a weeble-bottomed suit.

I had to call Animal Control to come have a talk with our neighbor about their walking potato of a dog and his affinty for being in our garage, peeing. When he's not crapping in our yard. Or sitting in the road or our driveway. When he's not peeing on my flowers (six dead so far this year).

Either Allison's been mastrubating, or we really need to vacuum under the table (hairy palms).

Off to change her. Again. Green beans in, green beans out.
