Off The Record

I'm OK.

I've had a headache nestled in one eye since Monday...

...and Hoop keeps asking me if I want some wine, all cautious-like.

That can't be a good sign.

I'm sick of dealing with my own stuff right now. It's consuming, exhausting. So, as I'm sure you can guess, I don't really want to blog about it this week. I'd much rather catch up with you all. I miss you.

So tell me, what have YOU been up to lately?

Hmmm... let's see. In the past week, I've researched and assembled a rainforest collage for Hannah for kindergarten, and researched all things Australia for Grace for Girl Scout Thinking Day this weekend.

Work goes back and forth between being a total drag and being not so bad. But the gossip in the office is always fun. I can only IMAGINE what they say about me when I'm not around.

I'm still going strong on my Project 365 which amazes even me.

I bought "supplies" over the weekend to make some cool glass magnets and am hoping to get around to those sometime in the next few days.

Other than that, it's just the usual... crazy sex parties, insane amounts of alcohol, and lots and lots of pot. ;)

PS: You aren't turning down that wine are you? Because would just be dumb. LOL!

Went to sleep with a headache last night, woke up with one this morning, and fighting it most of the day. Sorry, that was icky news.

I've been writing haiku this week. Just scheduled tomorrow's post, with yet another one.

And I keep running into old friends (as in friends from 28 years ago) on facebook.

Um, I'd check into that eye headache thing with your physician.

HOOP? You listenin?

Anyhow....don't worry about me! I'm into and up to all kinds of stuff...

But, I'm still concerned about your 'eye" related headache. How many days now? ? ?

I have been defending the no longer lucid grandmother of my child against the cookies that want to eat the cats off of her ceiling. Sadly, I think she has had yet another stroke because now all she does is mumble and apparently I am the only person on the planet that speaks mumble-ese.

All this has made me work up an appetite so I have been calling everyone I know at this point and asking them if they want to do lunch since I hate eating at my favorite restaurant alone. Everyone is busy. Some silly thing about having jobs and responsibilites and some such nonsense.

So I have yet to go have lunch. I just sit and wonder how those cookies will taste after they eat the ceiling cats.

It's just so rough being me.

Granny and I had a date tonight. From the reviews, I had the idea that the prices were fairly reasonable. Nope. At least the food and service were really great.

We'll be eating nothing but peanut-butter-and-jelly until June.

Wow, reading the other comments, I lead such a boring life...I got groceries!

Spreading my bloggin' wings. Ive been spending a lot of time checking out blogs. On my phone too, while I am bored, at that dreaded hell hole! lol

Let's see ... My friend and I spent Saturday night at the cottage after hiking 3km across the ice and frozen ground, through the wicked cold, to get there.

Sunday, after getting home again, I collapsed in the recliner with my youngest.

Monday and Tuesday were uneventful, if busy.

I spent yesterday un-hacking three compromised computers.

Tonight, the cub pack is building toy paddle-boats. Sounds fun, but imagine 30 8-10-year-old kids swinging hammers in a school gym and you may change your mind. :-)

I polished off all my Girl Scout cookies already. They lasted a whole 1.5 days! That's a new record. They're usually gone much quicker than that.

 
At 05 March, 2009, Blogger Chris said...

Um. *blink blink* Um. *crickets chirping*

Yeah, all of that and everything.

Checked out a school for a live production course my son is very interested in, found my way through a convoluted bus route to get to an appointment and headed out to Frank's place for a couple of days - which is where I am now.

I hope you're feeling better soon.

I think that is more than fair.

[***Don't forget the cupcakes. Wine and cupcakes always make things happy. Or vodka. Vodka is good.***]



How excited am I that the word verification is an ACTUAL word: "intern"! Ta-dah! I know, I was always the weird one. . . .

After 6 months on the market, we finally have one person interested (vaguely) in our house. That made Tuesday pretty exciting.

I had a "date" with my husband on Saturday, but we couldn't figure out anything to do, so we just went to the Cheesecake Factory and then Crate & Barrel.

Not terribly exciting, but perhaps distracting for 2 seconds.

Well, thanks to the economy I lost my job yesterday and I'm going through a break up. Pass the wine?

I have an idea. Let's steal a boat and live our lives as Caribbean pirates. We can make moonshine and over pronounce Rrrrrssss. That should help us forget our troubles.

I've got three kids home with influenza even though they had the flu shot. I have a headache myself and I'm sick of being stuck inside.
I have a fucking adam's apple my thyroid nodule is so damn big and when I wear my black and white sweater it makes me look like I have four tits.

Pass the cupcakes, wine, weed and beer...and bring a babysitter too. :0)

Well let's see. Uh ... there really hasn't been all that much going on around here. Kind of boring actually.

I did get a new camera! It's another point and shoot digital, but it is a major upgrade. So that's cool.

And I'm still boycotting a certain beverage company.

Still with the wonky eye huh? Take the wine!!

If you want to know what I have been up to, or for a laugh, you can come and read my blog. I do sometimes write stuff besides the WWC :)


LOL @ Allison.

Well, geeze! My blog is pretty depressing the past two weeks, so don't keep up with me. We'll keep up with everyone else together. Hope your headache gets better and you enjoy a nice glass of wine.

Headaches suck hopefully you'll feel better soon.

Let see the past few weeks I've been waking up super early on Sats and out skiing. I laughed pretty hard when I changed my alarm clock from 3:50 AM to 4:50 AM last Fri night. Yea to sleeping in an extra hour lol. Looking forward to a proper sleeping in this Sat.

You have given me a great idea for a regular weekly post on my blog with this. I love that so many of your readers popped up to cheer you up/unload about their days. I hope things are looking up for you today.

Headaches can be such a downer! I'm sorry that you're not feeling well. I've taken my dog, Bonzi, out on the lease while I do my cross-country skiing. I's about an hour and a half to a main road, then back to my place. Bonzi is really a hoot as he sniffs along, then goes whipping past me as he realizes I'm ahead. I've been a little worried, and have my guard up as we have seen two sets of cougar tracks a few days ago. I don't want Bonzi, or myself to end up as lunch for them! I hope you're feeling better soon!

I still don't know karate and knight still hasn't bitten me anywhere. I'm more upset about the later.

Not much happening here. I took the rocket ship to mars and got some more of those great candy bars. I prevented the leprechauns from taking over the world. I visited the Queen but not for very long.
Just the usual stuff.

i DID NOT poop my pants this week. That's progress, right?
take care, you.

Work and more work – not that I'm complaining. Oh, and another routine echocardiogram.

And next week: cancer scan. Running all over the metroplex to doctors, 4 out of five work days. Gotta do it, though. Don't want any mutant cells running amok, hey?

I'm looking for a bra to wear under my bridesmaid dress (yeah, I'm a bridesmaid and I'm over 50, so???) and I feel like a fat tattooed freak! Gah.

 
At 05 March, 2009, Blogger the Bag Lady said...

Just the usual - saved the world from yet another invasion of aliens, found a cure for cancer (but the gov't threatened me, so I have to keep it a secret)... then, in the afternoon.....

Hope your eye/headache goes away soon.

I totally understand what you are saying. Tine for a rest, a rest from reality.

I've been cleaning my fucking house obsessively, so weird people can look at it.

I spent the entire evening working on a 100 word bio of myself. I hate writing bios.

I've spent the entire morning trying to convince my kids not to kill each other.

I'll probably spend my entire weekend doing the same. (Convincing my kids not to kill each other, not writing a bio. Thank god.)

I invented a snooke.

It goes up the snizz then you blow up a city.

Unfortunately, the only snizz i can fit up is madonna's because the damned thing is huge.

Back to the drawing board I guess.

I gotta say... I'm liking Knight's suggestion more and more. But if you're gonna make homemade rum... why even bother pirating?

let's see this week I've had a sick kid home with me three days. Cut egg cartons apart in order to make pig snouts, cut out a bunch of bodies to turn into Rupunzel's. Did a few scrapbook layouts. Battled too many times over math homework with my oldest (I might get a job just so dh has to do homework with her instead, I seriously have a permanent headache due to this).
