Heffalump

Remember when I mentioned that FIL's wife's mother passed away earlier this week?  DH already sent flowers, but I picked up a sympathy card for us to send, too.  So I was thinking of that and Googled the obit, and DH (and I) are listed as survivors.  Which feels a little weird.  It doesn't bother me, but I think we met the woman twice in her entire life.  (And one of those times was when FIL married the deceased's daughter.)  So it feels...odd.  Well-meaning, I'm sure, but odd.

I wonder if that means my kids are among the 23 great-grandchildren referenced but (understandably) not individually named?

Anyway, that's my random.  We went out for Thai and now I'm in a food coma, so it's your turn.

I randomly threw crap on a plate for lunch and it was awesome.  I was making stuff for Bunco tonight and had cucumber, olives, tomatoes, and peppers extra.  I tossed on a diced avocado, some leftover pasta, and balsamic vinegar.  mmmmmmm.  I will be making it again.

I got a random message from my dad in all caps asking me to help him deactivate Facebook. The man barely posts. He uses it like twice a year. Why the random drama needing to deactivate?

That sounds delicious!

My random: Our dog appears to be scared of his own bark. He barks loudly, then whines or gets a shocked look on his face, as if he's saying, "Did I do that?"

My dog just ate a piece of a pickle that I accidentally dropped on the floor and then looked at me like I was punishing her. I'm thinking ummmm ok it's not like I opened your mouth and forced you to eat it.

ETA- she's right back to begging. Guess she wasn't too mad.

I actually got a message from Facebook this week that someone had tried requesting a password change -- on top of other attempts by someone to hack other accounts of mine.  Maybe that's why your dad needs help -- because someone tried to hack his information elsewhere.  So he's scared.  Could that be the case?

Either way I hope he's okay.

Could be. Thanks. I hope so, too!

I have my dog a French fry with ketchup on it and her utter hatred of ketchup is something I now find endlessly amusing. 

She nearly took my finger off taking the fry....then "we what the he'll is this" face

Every time I use the oven in this stupid rental house the fire alarm goes off. This morning the cat looked at me and me owed all annoyed like I was doing it on purpose.

Update: Turns out my dad wanted to be rid of FB b/c people were getting mad if he wouldn't accept their friend request and people post too many pics of their pets. Hahahahahahaha!

Our alarm is like that too! To the point where our dog runs upstairs to hid whenever we use the stove. I swear we are not that bad of cooks.

I've been getting a lot of random friend requests on FB lately.   And they don't look like spammers .... just so weird.

Wow. Glad he's okay!

There is a woman I was friendly with until I realized she's nothing but drama and a nasty drunk.  Her son and mine were friends, but I haven't heard his name in awhile.


ANYWAY, both boys are signed up for lacrosse and team rosters come up this week.  I'm stalking and HOPING we aren't on the same team.  I don't want to hurt her feelings but I can't be around her.

I'm making executive and money decisions I truly have no right to be making, but I've got to get moving on some things and can't wait for committee decisions...that I can probably get to go my way anyway.

I think I just pulled off a helluva thing for our upcoming Pride and I'm so damn excited I can barely stand it.

I'm burnt out on my atheist group.  I've done a pretty good job at getting things handed and delegated out, but there's still some stuff that is solely me and I don't want to handle it anymore.

I am too old for dating drama, but apparently other 30 year olds aren't.

Also, this is my new go to thing:

I've been playing this this week--when I rediscover things in my music collection:

I'm apparently a huge sap. I'm tearing up at Peyton Manning's press conference on the radio.

Why am I CRAVING potato chips when I already had a huge, very unhealthy lunch just a few hours ago?  Argh!  I hate that (munching on a Cheeto I just got from the vending machine).

I love how quite it gets when everyone starts getting off earlier than I do.. I honestly don't mind it. I get to work at 7 and go home at 3. 7 is early enough for me. Only other person here is my big boss and it is eerily quite in his office, so he must be in a meeting.

I spent the day digging a ditch, running septic and pipelines, and then filling in a ditch.
I am exhausted.  we got the last of it buried as Buffy got off the bus and the heavens opened up with rain.

I have 2 jobs. I cut hair and I work overnights doing security. I just did a haircut at my security job.
