Stupid Cold

October 21, 2011 Filed Under: Argo the wonder dog, gluten-free, STELLA, the cat, the dreaded lurgy

I don't get sick gracefully.  I have little patience for myself when I'm not at 100% and I'm not good at relaxing.  The dreaded lurgy hit our house this week, slowed everything down, and forced us to cancel our super fun weekend plans with our favorite people. Instead of showing you all what a champion whiner I can be, here are a few things that are cheering me up.Teeny tiny gluten-free bunny cookies.I don't know if it's helping or not, but it tastes good.I feel like Siri really gets me.The flash on my new phone turns Argo into Alien Dog.And, it's a terrible picture, but this:The cat suddenly … [Read more...]

I Suck At Sleeping

February 16, 2010 Filed Under: Argo the wonder dog, sleeptalking, the cat

I've never been a good sleeper. It is not one of my special talents. Dog snoring and husband sleep talking (and once sleep truck driving) doesn't help that much either. A few months ago, in the middle of the night, J nudged me awake, laughed and said, "That's so typical of night," in his sleep talking voice. "You're sleeping!" I said, hoping to fall asleep again before I shifted into wide awake. "But it's so typical of night," he said. "No, it's not!" I said. "Go back to sleep!" "It's not? It's not typical of night?" He was annoyed. "It's NOT typical of night?" "Fine," I … [Read more...]

Things that make me happy

February 3, 2010 Filed Under: Argo the wonder dog, dogs, German Shepherds, the cat, This is what you get when I can't come up with a real post.

I think I've got a little case of the winters. We had a little thaw out time and I jogged outside with the dogs and got to leave the house without six layers of clothing and it was awesome. Then it got crazy cold and we got more snow. That little reminder of what life is like in other seasons made it all the harder to go back to winter. So, instead of bumming you out with a long list of little nitpicky things that have been getting on my sunlight-deprived nerves, I'm going to give you a list of things that have been making me smile. My dogs having a blast playing together in the back … [Read more...]

I have a hard time with new things. Once I get my I have a hard time with new things. Once I get my choreography down with an object that works for me, I will keep it until there’s no life left in it. Such is the case with the Adidas hat I bought at the last minute to have shade for my face on our wedding trip nineteen years ago. I liked the way it fit and I had the brim curled exactly the way I think a brim should curl and that was enough to spend almost two decades with a hat I didn’t particularly like otherwise. I’ve tried other hats, but they didn’t take, because I have very little patience for being distracted by clothing. But my new @hatxhats buddy showed up today and I know it’s a keeper. There was no adjustment period. The brim is already perfectly curled. It’s really nicely made and so lightweight. And x-ing out hate is much more my speed than the random brand of my ancient clearance rack hat. #newhat
