I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I swear, this town - people don't just have grills - they also sometimes just burn stuff in their backyards.

One of my neighbors combined the two and burned several years of financial statements in his grill. I guess that's one way of avoiding identity theft without powering up the shredder. But he kinda looked like he was trying to hide a second career of cooking someone's books. La la la, nothing to see here, I'm just spending a lovely spring afternoon torching bank statements, la la la.

Oh! Khorkina is smiling in that photo!

Instead of watching the olympics, I went to bed. Which means I missed gymnastics and another phelphian moment. Enh.

Then this morning I got into a self-inflicted car accident. It was a very The Happening moment where the tree in my yard attacked me.

Can I have a do over please?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Then this morning I got into a self-inflicted car accident.

Yikes! You're OK, right? How damaged is your car?

Those yard trees are getting vicious! I'm sorry they've turned on you, Kat. I hope you and your car weren't hurt too badly. Maybe you could leave a ream of paper next to the tree's trunk as a warning?

Kat, I'm so sorry!

But, you're OK, right? Was there anybody else in the car?

“Not dead yet!”

Kat, I hope you're okay and that your car's not in too bad a shape.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ha!

I had a 9 am meeting, and now I have an 11, and I'm not sure what I actually did in between. Hmm.

Sounds like a bad morning, I hope you're okay.

I mean a bad morning for Kat, not Jesse though I hope she survives her meetings as well.

HAHAHAHA. Calli, that's awesome.

I cracked a plastic piece that says SATURN on it (no loss) an there's a small dent where the plastic piece sits in it. I'm sure it will cost several $$$hundred to have it fixed. Meh. Which is bad because I have not been paid this month.

Though, on the upside, N has been a sweetie-peatie all morning and his diapers are washed and ready to be hung on the line and the load of laundry that sat in the washer wet and therefore smells bad is ready to go back in.

Good time management around laundry can make me smile.
