Thoughts on the Day

  • Ever have one of those days when you watch a disaster movie and start cheering for the volcano?
  • Irish Woman took the kids out and took pictures for Christmas today.
    • Either the kids are getting ready for a stadium tour or they’re preparing to burn down a village.  I’ve never seen such scowls in my life.
  • In case you were wondering, it takes exactly 2.24 seconds for a young Siamese cat to go through the door of his carrier, cross the living room and dining room, jump onto the table, grab a piece of turkey thigh meat, and head for the basement.
  • I get no respect.
    • I ate a lot at dinner (It was our family Thanksgiving), and was a bit sleepy, so I stretched out on my recliner.
    • Girlie Bear came into the living room, and looked at me.
    • When asked what she wanted, she came up, placed both hands on my belly, and said “Cool, I felt the baby kicking!”.
    • Yeah, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.  I know, I know.
  • A well-known on-line and brick-and-mortar outdoors chain decided to trifle with Irish Woman because their website couldn’t keep up with traffic and messed up her order yesterday.  She is currently plotting something horrible and sticky for their customer service representatives, who are apparently only empowered to repeat over and over again “I’m sorry, but that order can’t be cancelled.  You can return it to the store when it comes.”
    • Seriously, after going in to figure out why she was loudly speaking in tongues at her iMac, I just shut the door to the bedroom and waited for her to stop levitating four feet off the floor.

    My husband often rubs his belly and says, “Ooo, the baby’s kicking,” when it rumbles.
