1. Do I really want to hear more about the swine flu? I'm all flued out already.
2. I went to a landfill yesterday. It was a fieldtrip. The nice people there told us all the wonderful things they did to give back to nature. They showed us the wetlands they were so proud of, and the blue herons flying around, as we were standing on a pile of crap covered by grass. My daughter found a ladybug. Neither of my children has learned the lesson that lots of trash is bad. Indeed, I think they feel that lots of trash is good, because how else can you create big mountains to sit on and look down on beautiful wetlands? Hmmmmm...
3. It's week 5!!! (Of the last term that is. Soon it will be summer... and we will have park days galore and won't have a care in the world. Yippeee!!)
4. When a couple having sex in a dumpster makes it into the local news, I can't help wondering, what they're hiding from us. I mean, there have got to be some REAL news somewhere, right? Sex in a dumpster. MY GOSH! How did he manage to get her to agree to that?
5. I love early mornings... when it's just me and the birds... oh, and of course the refrigerator humming faithfully.
6. My mom was hit by a car, as she was driving to work on her motorcycle. She is bruised pretty badly, but exams at the hospital ruled out any fractures or such. She's lucky to be alive. I wish she'd stop riding motorcycles. My mom is somewhat accident-prone.
7. If I don't go to the store now, I won't have any breakfast. I believe my stomach will now take over and send me off.
8. I like my bloggy friends. Thank you.
I'm glad your mom is okay. It must be hard to be so far away.
ReplyDeleteDamn. I need to start watching the news. I hate missing great stories like that! (And maybe SHE talked HIM into doing it in the dumpster... equal rights and all that)
I used to love early mornings too. Now my boys are older and they have to be on the school bus by 7am. So 6am we ALL wake up! Me, the birds, the boys AND the frig humming!! LOL
ReplyDelete#4. O...K...
ReplyDelete#5 Glad you mom's alright. Scary!
#8 We're rather fond of you too. (PS - I see you need update your blog list.)
Sex in a dumpster and swine flu, you mean there are other things happening?
ReplyDeleteThank goodness your Mom is alright! I bet it gave her (and you)a scare.
Oh my I hope your mom is ok! i don't like motorcycles much. Swine flu ... I hope it doesn't turn into a really really bad deal - I'm sorta not really interested in catchy anything that came from a pig ;)
ReplyDeleteThat darn swine flu is everywhere!!!!! Driving me mad....(doesn't take much to drive me mad though). Sex in a dumpster, that is just yuck and not news worthy. I'm glad you're mom is alright!
ReplyDeleteI suppose if you stand over a landfill, there is enough methane and other junk rising through the soil to kill and swine flu...maybe your kids have it right!
ReplyDeleteIn relate dnews, the mountain top removal mining that goes on here is the same way..."we leveled a mountain and all it's diversity and ruined the drinking water...but check out the new golf course!" Ugh
Scary about your mom getting hurt but what a rock star for riding a motorcycle!
ReplyDeleteYour mom is kinda my hero. I have wanted a motorcycle my entire adult life and I never got one.
ReplyDeleteWhile I'm sorry she was in an accident, I am glad she wasn't badly hurt. I still say she ROCKS!
