Knock, knock…is this thing on? Hey lurkers! I know you’re out there. *waves to Kathey* Do they still make Wacky Wafers? I loved those things, especially the watermelon ones. Yummmm! Hmmm…seems the answer is no. How sad. I feel a little bit as though I have rabbits burrowing in my brain. I mean, I can’t seem to hold on to a thought. I use up all my concentration at work and when I come home it’s as though I was (were?) a balloon that someone filled up with air and held pinched shut all day,* and as soon as I...

How tired do you have to be in order to be diagnosed with chronic fatigue? Cinnamon roll pop-tarts spread with butter and nuked in the microwave for 30 seconds are divine. Some days I’d just rather be reading blogs. This made me laugh out loud, though: What everyone should know about blog depression (thanks to cottontimer for the link!) O Brother Where Art Thou? was on TV tonight and I actually sat down and watched nearly all of it. I really like this movie. And it’s the first time I’ve ever considered George Clooney to be acting and not just...

Anders climbed up the ladder to take the central vacuum cleaner on the laundry room wall apart and find out what the matter was only to discover that the bag, apparently too heavy with ick, had split and dropped away from the hose output, filling the canister around and under the bag with filth and disgustingness, including PINE NEEDLES, our major indication that it’s been this way since at least Christmas. He managed to heave all the crap out, re-bag it, and use our old portable vacuum to clean up the resulting mess. When I got home I vacuumed the...

I don’t have anything pressing to write about tonight, but I can’t stop the compulsion, regardless. Luckily for me, and sadly for you, I don’t feel the pressure to be scintillating and interesting every damn day. 😛 Haaa! I keep finding good writers. I keep adding blogs and journals to my list. I need an INTERVENTION. Mack the Knife is playing on my playlist right now, and I want to get up and dance, but there is no one here to dance with. What a bummer that my Uncle Mike and Uncle Sam live so far away, and that my...

Lazy Saturday. Slept in. Ran a couple of errands. Rented some kid movies. Didn’t talk to my brother on the phone. Had a yummy dinner consisting of delicious grilled pork, potato salad and artichokes as big as Karin’s head. Watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind after myskväll. (NOT Band of Brothers, JOHN. Pbbbb!!). Our comments after: Anders: My head hurts. Liz: Yeah. That was a hurty-head movie. Came to the realization that I have had nothing planned, no activities, for over 7 days. Cannot decide if I like it as much as I think I do. Really Great Writing...

It’s a good thing other people are writing good stuff because I’m too tired to do any of my own today. Working very, very hard all day for several days and staying up WAY too late and then working very, very hard again is getting to be a bad habit. Going to bed at a reasonable hour seems to be beyond me. There is SO MUCH to do! There is NOT ENOUGH time. It’s quite suddenly turned summer here. And that means, yes, you guessed it, FLY SEASON. bleah Those horses behind us are really wonderful to look at most...
