Janet started a Whitney, Britney and Courtney blog. Talk about your trainwreck! Heh.

Is it wrong that I find
this amazingly creepy? I mean, seriously creepy. As creepy as I found that stupid dog picture with the human face. CREE-PY.
(Thanks for creeping me out, Karen! 🙂

I just finished
Twisted, by Jeffery Deaver. Excellent book, I highly recommend it! The title is very appropo – each story takes a twist you don’t expect at all.
I just started
Operating Instructions, by Anne Lamott. She’s hilarious! I had no idea.

The spud has tomorrow off, so I’m taking her shopping for bras and bathing suits and shorts and whatever else she needs. We’re going to start at Kohl’s, then hit Target if we need to.
I hate shopping, have I mentioned? But bras and bathing suits are really things you need to try on rather than ordering them online.
I did a little shopping the other day, because ever since Fred and I switched beds so that he has the king-size bed and I have the queen-size, I’ve only had one set of sheets. It’s a huge pain in the ass to have to take the sheets off the bed, wash them, dry them, and then put them back on the bed all in one day. I prefer to take a good long time when doing laundry (a couple of days, usually) and I hate having to go upstairs, take the sheets out of the dryer, and make the bed at the end of the night.
Sheets are expensive, though – at least the 250 count Percale ones I like are – and I kept putting it off until I got a 15% off coupon for Bed, Bath and Beyond last week. I bought the second set of sheets (exact same sheets, actually), and now I’m sitting (laying?) pretty.
I need to get more towels for the master bedroom too, one of these days. The towels we have now are getting pretty ratty looking. I haven’t decided whether I’ll still with the bluish gray towels we already have, or go in another direction.
Lime green would work.
(Kidding!)

Some months ago (February, in fact), I posted a picture of the sunset from our back yard, saying that it would look a whole lot better if it weren’t for all the wires in the way.

Reader Chrystal took the picture and made it so that the wires weren’t in the picture:

I was right – it DOES look a lot better!
(Thanks Chrystal!)

Spot was sleeping in the Bean’s usual spot (in the cat bed, on the couch), so the Bean (or should I say Mister Boogers) pulled the blanket off the arm of the couch and made himself a nest. Pushy little bastard. (Don’t you want to grab him and squeeze him ’til his guts come out?)

The Bean has started to learn how to go through the cat door without being shoved out it. Sunday, he started to go out, then caught sight of birds in the yard, and sat there, frozen in place, for several minutes. Goofy Bean. (picture taken by Fred)]]>
