Thoughts on the Day

  • The new job keeps going along well.  I’m learning new things every day.  
  • I’m proud of myself.  I had the urge to utter the phrase “grinning like an idiot” today, but I resisted and just retreated into my cubicle like a bear in his cave.
  • Girlie Bear came home from the water park last night as pink as a gorilla suit.  Aloe and Noxzema helped a little, but she had to go to work at the zoo this morning.  She seems to have followed our advice and stayed in the shade as much as possible, but she still looks like she’s been french fried.
  • Kroger is having a sale on canned goods.  Irish Woman is stocking up, and I need to put more shelves in the basement.
  • We will be making more pickles tomorrow.  I’m thinking of throwing in a few dried Thai chilis and a clove of garlic in each jar.
  • Hidden somewhere in this house is the remote to the overly-technologized ceiling fan in my living room.  I will give half my kingdom to the brave soul who goes on a quest and finds it.  Ask the gnome at the gate for your first clue.
  • Apparently Boo wants a parrot.  I’m think about just teaching Koshka to swear and have her follow him around for a few days.

    Poor Girlie Bear. I’m another of those who needs SPF Bulletproof. I feel her pain.

    Coppertone Sport SPF 70 works well, provided it’s reapplied often enough….
