An ode



My dog is 16. Man alive!

He acts like a puppy though. Well, not all the time; but he definitely acts like one when he's waiting for a walk or a treat.

What a great dog.

We don't need no water

This is the fire in Santiago Canyon. I'm standing in our backyard:



It looks really close, but it's several miles away. Granted, most people don't want fire that close to their homes. I feel worst for San Diego....

Hopefully we don't have to evacuate. Although, that would add a splendid twist to October.

Slice and Dice

Soooo I had my appendix removed yesterday. I'm back at home, resting now. Boy is it boring recovering from surgery! :P

On top of that, there is a fire burning about 5 miles from our house. Can we add these things to the list of why 2007 is the worst year ever? (At least in my world)

Yes please.

I'll say more when I'm less hopped up on pain killers and the air quality gets a little better, ha ha

Day 2!

Top 5 ways to embarrass Stephen:

1. Put him in a situation where everyone else knows what they are doing and he doesn't have a fucking clue which way is up.
2. Pull down his pants in front of a lot of people.
3. Catch him when he misuses a word or says something that isn't correct and then call him on it.
4. Find files on his computer of "questionable" content and ask him about them (you probably don't want to do this... nothing makes me angrier than someone snooping through my shit).
5. Make a scene in public (one in which you are really nasty/mean to someone, ESPECIALLY when said nastiness is unwarranted).

The end.

Oh, and these aren't necessarily in order of severity. In that case, number five would be my number one. Without question.

Ooh la la!

Getting in the Rhythm

In an attempt to make blogging here into a habit, I am going to incorporate thematic writing.

Well, I use the term "writing" loosely... One, because you can hardly call what I do writing; and two, because making lists is fairly remedial (and it's not really writing... granted, it falls under the auspices of writing, but still... okay, I'll shut up now).

ANYWAY.

I originally intended to make TOP 10 lists (kind of sort of in a way borrowing the idea from David Letterman. Well, less "kind of sort of in a way borrowing" and more outright stealing). Much to my surprise and dismay, I discovered it difficult to think of interesting categories in which I could come up with 10 items. Let alone items that I would consider worthy of a top 10 list.

So, I give you.... *long, incessant drum roll* THE TOP 5 LISTS A-GO-GO!!!

A-GO-GO really increases the vibrancy of... well... pretty much EVERYTHING.

Every day (or so), I will create a new top 5 list. My hope in this regard is to provide insight into my psychoses-laden brain. You will learn. A LOT.

Trust me.

Okay, list #1 -

Top 5 NQSS-YNQSLE Foods
(Not quite so solid - yet not quite so liquid either)

1. Slightly melted coffee ice cream (preferably Haagen Dazs)
2. Strawberry La Creme yogurt (NO CHUNKS! WOO!)
3. Apple Sauce
4. Jell-O chocolate pudding
5. Strawberry Jell-O

Oh OH, I forgot one important point. These lists are not provided for the sake of criticism. I'm not eliciting arguments here (I know strawberry Jell-O may not fit into the NQSS-YNQSLE category). Just bear with me and revel in the insanity. Your life will be much easier if you do so. :)
