Scotto's Wall Scrawls

ʍopǝpısdn ƃuıʇıɹʍ unɟ pɐɥ I - thanks to http://funicode.pirillo.com/

Lots of fonts that are basically just fun with Unicode, so you can post that way on twitter, facebook or whatever.

Maybe I was feeling goofy due to the shining sun and happy kitties, but whatever it was, it was a welcome change from a lot of gloom and doom that had been going through my head in the last month or so.

Aside from that, I printed out my revised resume for distro to a gig I could really get my teeth into - I would love to find a 40 hour a week job with minimal on-call or weekend work, like my gigs have been so often in the past.

Swung by the knitting store so BHK could learn how to do a trinity stitch (so she can make a nice cap for J and Sean's soon to be born little girl) from Nancy at Ch'NaCa, while I lurked about at the craft table and watched Between Two Worlds, which I enjoyed quite a bit.

We went to "kids at the farm" day w/ jay, duncan, sean, and Jay's sister & nephew.

Jay's sister is basically Flip Wilson's Geraldine incarnate. I kid you not, dear journal.

After visiting the baby animals, we swung by the Lusby Mexico - the food there is still great, and the cost is cheap. Thank goodness for buy one/get one coupons! I suspect that Lusby's cook is a smidgen better than the closer one.

Saturday, February 21, 2009 10:35 AM

Been waiting at the doctors office for about 30 minutes now - longer time than usual to get shots.

BHK is getting blood work done - I’m more peeved that she has to wait than me - she has been fasting since last night and probably has some low blood sugar going on.

I’m just glad they have some juice available to her for afterward.

After we finish here, plans are for me to get a haircut, a spot of breakfast and then visit Miss Tigger for some love while the in-laws are out off town on a school field trip.

This weekend is primarily set to be for catching up with work - home and otherwise.

Supper last night was buffalo “chicken” patties - celery for BHK, pickles for me. Caught up with an episode of Burn Notice and Psych, and then we toddled off to bed. Straightforward evening.

10:49 AM

I am back from my shot- bhk getting blood work done now.

Good day sunshine going through my head, for no reason in particular. This week did not feel like a 4-day workweek. I hope next week is less demanding on my resources.

Britny’s girlfriend broke up with her the day before valentine’s day- kind of a punk maneuver. They’re best friends “with benefits” now, but are free to see other folks.  That sounds a bit like a death knell for a relationship to me, but who knows how it will work out for them?

Haven’t heard a lot from Jay or Sean lately - I suspect that that Duncan hasx been giving them quite a run for their money.

It’s pretty cold in the doc’s office… remodeled too - the carpet is making me feel a little dizzy, too.

11:10 AM

BHK is done with bloodwork - they gave her a caprisun? I thought real fruit juice was proper, not corn syrup? Ah well, we'll get some breakfast / lunch at home - lots of good eats there.

11:20 AM

We go to Chessie's for subs - I get veggie & cheese, BHK gets a pizza-steak sub. I opt out of getting a haircut at the barber shop next door, as they only take cash. 7-11 next door has drinks and dessert - BHK starts on a slim jim to get her system back.

11:35 AM

Fill up with Gas, and hit the Car wash! http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-632554519355380271&hl=en


Noon

Time to peek in on Miss Tigger while the in-laws are gone and give her some food, too. Subs are lackluster.

8:00 PM

Back to feed and play with Tigger again - we brought a copy of "The Cat From Outer Space" to play with her in the room.

8:20 PM

Tigger is asleep. BHK is Asleep. I'm doing stuff on the computer, and am enjoying the old disney flick.

9:30 PM BHK is awake, Tigger is downstairs, Movie is over.

9:45 - Heading home - until Later, Dear Journal!

Went out with Larry this morning to have the green truck looked at (no relation to the element issues) - It was a nice guy's morning out, even though we were stymied at every attempt to get the truck looked over by a mechanic. Same thing happened when we went to look for breakfast - Denny's and The Double T diner was jam packed, so we headed closer to home from Annapolis, and were lucky enough to see Selby's unofficially open - they were there baking the bread and goodies for later in the day. We got some scrambled eggs and toast - worked for us!

We stopped off at the blue house, and rotated the tires - we'll see if that fixed the humming in the long run - right now, the sound is good.

After doing truck-work, Larry applied another coat of laquer to the guitar - it's coming along nicely - my photos don't do the grain any justice whatsoever.


Got home, and was feeling pretty bad again in the ol' gizzard - BHK and I went to Calvert Kettle Corn to get Sean part of his birthday snack - we refilled his 2 gallon bucket, brought some ice cream, and BHK made him a lovely blue cake with cherry chips inside.

Spent a little time at the Masnpergers - good karaoke and birthday fun, but my gut was bugging me and we headed home. I had a few crackers for dinner, but basically took it easy.

New Dr. Who was pretty good - the last episode before the 08 finale - "turn left" - I don't know what was up with Rose's lisp, though.Hurt her teeth?

Caught a bit up on work today - warming up for tomorrow and this week. I guess the Winter Holidays are over, at least until 1/20 (day off for the inauguration).

I seem to be doing a bit better today - still a drop in appetite, but the jaw is feeling less like a stab in the ear-hole with a sharp stick.

Shaun, Jay, and Duncan come over for pasta & broccoli, and we hang out until I need to hit the sack. It's a school night! We chitty chatted for a long while and Duncan was very gentle with the kitties.

Until later, dear journal- Happy sleeps!

Went to the Festival of Trees with BHK, Jay, Shaun, and Duncan - proceeds went to local area hospice - The custom trees were neat - I think the "Cats" one had the most home-made work done to it - customized action figures (barbie and kens?) done with Makeup and hand done costumes.

Off for our walk this morning - quick picture of the porch - leaves are turning brown, but the cabbage is still vibrant... and these pumpkins are unravaged by squirrels thus far. (can't say that for the others on the left side!)

Off to take Jay and Duncan to Bowens after we get some kettle corn!
