Work was a pain in the ass.
 
My feet ache.
 
I'm damn bitchy.

So Happy freaking 4th of July!

Lille please keep your rabid plot bunnies to yourself. My tush has enough teeth marks without your bunnies adding more. And you will pay for this...you are gonna be put on research duty for this!

The dish is fixed. Just a broken connection on the dish. Done in twenty minutes.

But silly Ki-Ki...she just had to con a pet out of the tech. God! That little attention whore.

Ok they tell the tech guy won't be here until after 12. So here I am ready to head off to do my errands, when the tech guy passes me on the road. Made a quick  u-turn and now dealing with him trying to fix my dish. BUT IT'S NINE PEOPLE!!!!!!! Good thing I hadn't left any sooner. Damn!

Lille wanted me write for her today but just wasn't going to happen. But I know she'll forgive me.
 
Today is my day to sit and quietly grieve. 17 years and I still miss him as if it just happened. So I'll sit here and cry a little , miss him, and feel a little sorry for myself.

Tomorrow will be better and maybe then the muse will come out and play.

I am beginning to think that Lille has something on my muse. I was in no mood to write, and the muse hasn't been talking for ages. Then Lille says write me something to cheer me up. So what does the muse do? Jumps right up and writes her a little something.

So Lille what do you have on my muse? And do you think you can get it to work for me?

Work was just plain crazy today. Busy as all get out. Didn't help it was free pie day. I am soooo tired. My legs ache. Don't think I want to work pie day again.

For anyone that watches HLN or the Fox News channel you are familiar with our crazy mayor Carty Finkbinder. I swear the man is on there a least once a month for the crazy things he does, but today takes the cake. He is ticketing people for parking in their OWN driveways if they are not paved. EXCUSE ME? When did it become against the law to park in own driveway if it hasn't been paved? The man has totally lost it. Do you understand PRIVATE PROPERTY? The city can't tell what kind of driveway to have. Get over yourself Carty! I know the city needs money but this ain't the way to do it.

Anyone out there want an insane mayor? We'll give him to you for FREE!

Lille wants me to write silly? My muse doesn't do silly! But since she needed entertainment I did what I could. She'd better appreciate it!

I am beginning to think Lille is trying to spare my feelings. She's telling me what I have been writing lately is good but I know it's not. I don't know why I bother to write but the muse won't leave me alone until I put it down. Which would be ok...but then I end up sending it to Lille or even more stupidly I post it somewhere. Save me from myself people, PLEASE!

I have come to the conclusion that I'm FUBAR and I'm OK with that.

I was getting ready to close the door for the night when I glanced out...not more than 30 feet from it was a DEER! She was nibbling the grass and some leaves. We ended up having a staring contest for a few minutes. Then she went back to eating. The cats and I watched her until she crossed over to the greenhouse next door. Though Allie didn't like her. She hissed at her. Bad Allie! I hope I see her again.

Ok. It's been an on and off getting to know me type of thing with him. As you know it's been a little over year since I got him. Well today he stood in front of the door and gave me the look 'well are you going to open the stupid thing?' Well I decided to do it just to see what he would do. It's official. He'll walk right out if I give him the chance. Damn! Another escapee! Wish they all would be like Allie. I could leave the door wide open and she would NEVER step over the threshold. One out of five who knows the only safe place to be is inside. You'd think at least Ki-Ki would have learned after getting beaten up last year...but no! She's the sneakiest of them all about getting outside. Summer is going to be such fun. Lucky me.

I saw my groundhog today. (I know they can be destructive little things, but we have a peaceful co-existence.)  As I looked through the window watching him nibbling grass, it struck me. He looked old! I researched the lifespan of a groundhog and discovered the average is nine years. He's been living under my shed for six years now...makes me a little sad to think he may not be around much longer.

When the zipper broke on my wedding dress. So embarassing!

Allie attacked the bath towel this morning. She jumped a mile when it 'attacked' back. Fun times during bath time.
