9660 - wednesday

Franklin was back - and happy to have a little nibble for breakfast. I ate my bagel and gave him treats and pets for breakkies.

speaking of critters -  BHK master list of things for us to adopt -

  1. duck
  2. llama
  3. alpaca
  4. puggle
  5. griffon (spunky one)
  6. pig
  7. baby otter (preferably 2 )

Comcast came back - apparently they didn't complete the disconnect from the "walled garden". Fortunately, BHK was savvy enough to tell them that our equipment wasn't bad - told them to get one off the truck, and test - failed, and that led them to call and fix earlier.

They reset the router though - I'm going to have to rename and reset some security. (not crazy about having it called "linksys" or "default" when "mr meaty" or "salmagundia" will do better.

Let's see how well this stays together.

Fooling around near the bus stop, while waiting for BHK to come get me - it's pretty gray outside for springtime, yet, and plenty cool.

After work tonight, BHK picked me up, an we went to Pizza Hut with Adam. Brought him back his hoodie and power cable left behind the other night he slept over, as well as some little treats picked up for him at 7-11 (chips, gummis, soda)

Adam is still not interested in getting BHK a Llama via his rental company, and we were all too tired to do candlepin bowling.

Dropped him off, saw a cd/video game exchange place... swung in for a moment - not a bad collection of stuff, and the prices look right. I'll be back.

We got home, and now are heading to bed... early, but both of us are bushed!

AND AND AND!!!!! WE found a the CUTEST bubble tea shop called YAMI YAMI!!!!!

So all hell's coming down on the North Beach Town Hall today. Apparently we got a disconnect notice on our water! Well it seems that the drop box was broken into/tampered with and someone stole all the checks/money orders and NO ONE TOLD anyone (or it seems from the police blotter told the police)! Dra-MAHHH! Luckily i took a shower already and the water isn't going to be cut off cause they got a talking to and we are dropping a new check by. But why not use that fancy-schmacy website and email notification system to let residents know so they can STOP checks in a timey manner (thus thwarting the thieves)!

ALSo I found the most awesome Maryland home gardening website---they have printouts of what varieties to plant in our area and when they can be planted!!!

(Under vegetable gardening) I printed them out and we are on our way (as soon as mom is ready *sigh*) to buying some BROCCOLI!!!
And maybe brussel sprouts---and you're gonna EAT 'EM too!

Oh yeah let the record show that Adam admitted he'd BUY me a bunny cause he'd lose money renting me one just by having to send the billing notice monthly with a 42 cent stamp!

And he refused to rent me a petting zoo and balloon animal clown for my birthday. And we need to ask him about renting a sanitary plastic bubble for you in case I get a petting zoo for my birthday---I'll put that on the "to-DO" list :D

We will get you at least a balloon clown for your birthday, if you *really* want one.

must investigate an environmental suit.

Noooooooo Brussells sprouts!!!

We did a drop box for the water bill???

If thieves stole those checks, thos eaccount numbers can be used for other stuff too - better keep an eye on that account for a bit!

Yup brussel sprouts, cauliflower, cabbage, sugar peas, tulips, radishes, spinach and something else I forget.

No broccoli though----they aren't going to have that until Friday night at the store!

well, you're an amazing chef... I bet you could make even Brussels sprouts and cauliflower tasty! :D
