hummin' bird

I saw Kirby today. He flew past the kitchen window and I got very excited and started yelling "HummingBIRD!!" Then he checked the feeder. Of course, it was almost empty from dripping and I don't know if he got a good taste. Now its nice and full again so Kirby come back!

no dumbbutt

Yesterday an environmental guy came to the house. He was late teens early 20's. He asked me, "Are your parents home?" "No." "Will they be home by 9?" "Nooooo." "Are you at least 18?" "Yesssss."

I should have told him I owned the house and I was married. I wonder what his reaction would have been. I didn't because I was trying to figure out what he wanted before I told him I lived here on my own without MoM.

How old did he think I was?? Jeesh. Anyways, I gave him 15$, I hope it gets put to good use.

hey baby!

I love clicking on my journal and seeing Katie's face come up. I love that dog.

I watched the videos from the Pride Parade. They were hilarious. I especially liked the guy who said he doesn't rap and the couple with the veil. They acted so surprised at the questions. I love when people laugh a lot, it makes me laugh too.

I feel worthless and lazy today. I actually went out to eat last night and ate real food. We went to Carrabba's, the newest addition to Amherst. It was more expensive than the olive garden but not by too much. Two meals and an appetizer cost us 32$. Not bad. The eggplant parm was yummy in my tummy. And they give you warm bread to dip in oil and herbs. MMmmm.

We had calamari as an app. Its hard to think of it as a squid. I can't even say I'm eating squid. Gross.

random things

1. I agree with Lilho about keeping journals shorter if possible. Sometimes I read half and then feel compelled to move on to another journal. Gotta keep up. I am also guilty but sometimes I can't stop writing. I don't care if mine gets skipped. I just gotta finish writing.

2. Last yr. we had bikes stolen from our backyard. They took the most expensive bike and mine, the least expensive. In fact, mine was worth maybe 2 dollars. Rusty up the ying yang. I feel so violated when something is stolen from me. Like it was a personal attack. After that we kept them in the living room. Nice.

3. Happy Birthday Robin! I don't know who you are but I like wishing people Happy Birthdays.

4. I forget who said they were going to Alaska but that's awesome. Your trip sounds like fun. I've always wanted to drive cross country. Maybe one day before I really settle down.

5. I decided one thing I will miss a lot when I have kids is that I won't be able to walk around naked or pee with the door open after they are a certain age. I don't want my 5 yr. old to have a memory of mommy walking around naked when he's 20.

6. I told Matthew we have resident toads. Here's a picture of one. Tom-Tom. He's the fattest little toader and he likes to hang out in the grill cover. Katie likes to chase them.

Alaska

Last year about this time D and I went on a cruise to Alaska. It truly is a beautiful place. It just doesn't seem like its part of the US, you feel like your somewhere special and far far away. I guess groceries are expensive because of the distance from farms and things. This one guy we met said the grocery was out of garlic for two weeks! And milk costs a pretty penny. Here are a few pics. They're really small because they wouldn't fit any bigger. The last one is from Victoria, B.C. What a beautiful place. Seattle was nice too. Very clean and hilly. Wow was it hilly.

...

and I have to reference Jessbob's comment on Maculay Culkin. His lips DO always look chapped. Gross! Maybe that's his thing. Blonde, red eye rims, chapped lips to match and unfunny chit chat. He was on one of the late nights and he still looks 16. I'm not nice.

i wasn't going to but....

since i was on reading i might as well post. so far hummingbird feeder has only had one guest and it was a beetle of some sort. i decided if and when i get a customer, i will name it Kirby. Maybe its the lack of flowers in my yard joined with the fact that sometimes it takes a few weeks to even attract a h-bird. Kirby, where art thou?

I wish I had a pool to swim in. I think that would be the only exercise I could really like.

How'd it get to be 2am?

wisdom teeth?

more like ouchie hurties pay big bucks to remove. shouldn't we have evolved these teeth right out of our genetic makeup by now?? so yesterday was a blur although I am so thankful i decided to be sedated. i started coming out of it right when they took a drill to one of the wisdom teeth. then as quickly as i was waking up i was out again. i wonder if the heart monitor beeped to show i was starting to freak out. i remember getting in a wheel chair and feeling nauseas on the way home but i don't remember much else. nausea sucks. i had to stick my head in the toilet bowl a couple times even though i had nothing to eat or drink in over 12 hours.. i know it'll be all worth it in about 2 weeks. for now my diet consists of carnation instant breakfast, grits, yogurt and pills. soon ramen noodles and chicken noodle soup. can't wait.

i'm having trouble changing my user pic. i got frustrated so this one will stay for now. i'm getting bored of it.

hi hi hihihihih hihHIH HIiihhHI Hola

So we took a tripper to Toronto. The weather was great and I had a fantabulous time. We stopped at Ikea on the way back to get a cheap couch. We couldn't fit the mattress in the car so we had to return it 10 minutes after buying it. Stinks.

We ate at the Pickle Barrel twice. Their focaccia sandwiches are to die for. Mmmmmmm. We also had an appetizer of avacado spring rolls with some kind of Thai dipping sauce. I love Thai. Anyways, The Pickel Barrel should come to Buffalo. I bet they would do great business here. Or even Niagara Falls, On. if they want to keep it Canadian. I'll go to N.F. to eat.

Here is the sad part. I'm getting my wisdom teeth cut out of my face tomorrow. They are putting me under but I can't help but freak out about all of this. I have never broken a bone, got stitches, had a tooth pulled.. so I am just a little nervous. yikes!

I also decided to apply for a job at Tops. They are opening a new one near my house and I thought I'd go out for bakery or the deli. Its easy money and I got into grad school so I don't have to worry about a real job for a while. Now Tops just has to call me. Hey, Tops! I'll decorate a cake!
