This post is so I can remember this site and look at photographs of Nature swallowing up an abandoned American city whenever I wish.

1. This Guy is my hero.

2. This site is on constantly in my house.

Did you know that if you dip a Girl Scout shortbread into Wild Berry Zinger, it tastes like Crunch Berries?

Well it does.

“Zzzzzz spells honk-shue”

“That was so delicious I couldn’t believe my eyes!”

“I changed my mind. I want to be as tall as a giant. (pause) If a giant was a short giant, it would be as teeny as a mouse.”

I can’t remember the exact wording, but she also told me she had a dream that she drove the car. I think it is amazing that she can remember her dreams at such and early age. It is also amazing to me that she would conceive of herself doing something like driving a car. She is a goddam delight, I tell you. It seems impossible that she would grow up to be anything less than a highly celebrated, world renowned and most beloved person who ever lived. And so she shall be.

A nice pinot noir, Girl Scout cookies, and a bowl of Pirate Booty.

Because I am one high class beeyatch.

Dropped Girl off at preschool this morning. All the kids had little valentines to give out. Not us, though! Because the note that this was going to happen was in the Thursday newsletter this week and last week. Which is swell except that we don’t go to school on Thursdays and so don’t *get* the Thursday newsletter. So now the little sprites in the Possum room are getting hastily purchased Marvel Comics valentines (“Our love is like IRON!”) with melanine-soaked lollipops attached. Enjoy!

Then the parking meter ate my quarter.

Lastly, went to get my oil changed. They don’t have my size oil filter and sent me away. Sigh.

All of this before 10am. Convince me to not just hunker down and nap the rest of the day.

I have an eyebrow wax scheduled later today. Let’s hope I have brows by the end of the day.

1. We paid off one of our credit cards this month (it’s one from a cast of thousands, but still, woot) and I wrote across the front: “Hello. I am a paid off bill.”

2. I busted into an Angel-esque version of Mandy while allegedly working

3. My brain is fluttering around like a Crazy Mosquito on Methamphetimines. What is in that fairly traded organic coffee?
