i get a couple of days off next week. to "relax" and "regenerate" and all that stuff. so i made a to-do list. and it's RIDICULOUSLY LONG! there is no way i will ever get all that crap done in two days. so i started this afternoon to try to get a couple of things done. i cleared out a bunch of salal in the trees in front of my house (thank you, new machete!) and got all ready to paint a board for shelving. oh yeah, then the mist rolls in. i called the bank to finish setting up my hoa online banking. oh, but they can't set it up in one day. so despite the fact that i told them exactly what i wanted back in june, they still haven't been able to put it together. phone tag is really, really old by now. other fun things today: i took hobbes and teddy to the old folks home again. boy do they have fun! and the old folks like the critter fix too. and i got to help take care of a fawn. that had been hit by a car. on SUNDAY. note that it is currently tuesday, and that someone let the poor thing lie in her yard for nearly three days before calling anyone about it. so i'm a little bit sad about that. because i was in a vehicle that hit a deer on sunday, and we didn't wait - we called the police right away and had the poor broken thing shot asap. i felt bad that it took the cops a half hour to arrive, and this poor little guy was hurt the same day... NOT such a fan of humans now. and then when we get there it turns out i know the person. *grits teeth* poor fawn.
fun things since my last blog: too freaking many to remember them all. great reason not to wait months at a time in between, hey? some toppers include a camping trip to mt. rainier and becoming the passenger on a motorbike. also, enter: the boyfriend! wow, it's only been about 11 years since i've had one of those. i think i like it!
did i mention that i got a car. that really works? the heater and spedometer work too! and some menfolks glued rubber duckies to the hood.
which reminds me - those same menfolk stuck a rubber duck on the front end of our cardboard boat, of which i was made pilot. i capsized fairly early into the race, but i rescued the ducky.
i played the part of "sylvia" in the tender trap at driftwood theatre in aberdeen. i've just been cast as "caitlin" in over the river and through the woods, and following that, i've been asked to be "rita" in educating rita. yep, i'm getting back into the drama thing, fairly big time.
and my enthusiasm just disappeared with my blood sugar or something so i'm gonna go get a snack now. yep.
