Spring What?

The earth around me is certainly celebrating Spring. If I can ever drag my lazy carcass outside with my camera, I'll hafta show ya. The plum trees in my backyard are starting to bloom and the grass/weeds closest to my house are just positive that it's June. Seriously, I need to mow already. Obnoxious grass/weeds.  Even the slugs are out and about already.

How do I know the slugs are out and about already? Blech. I had a first hand experience with one last night. One got stuck in Libby's hair when I took her out before bedtime last night and I didn't know it until I was rubbing/hugging her and I got slimed. Ugh. So. Gross.

Now she's got this bit of matted hair from dried slug slime so poor baby's gonna need a bath.

You know, I've had to do a lot of things since I got Libby that I never thought I'd ever be able to stomach.  Cleaning up vomit. Picking up poop. Scrubbing down walls after a case of explosive diarrhea (hers, not mine). And now, removing slimy slugs.

Alls I gots to say is, "Thank God for paper towels!"

Nothing blooming up here yet. We're still covered with snow - with another 3 to 6 inches possible Monday night. This alternating rain/snow thing really sucks this time of year. If you're not slipping on ice, you're being flooded. :-\

I'm Lost

Boy.  Last night was the most intense 2.5 hours of my LIFE. Well, the part of my life that I relegate to television viewing, anyway. Last night, as you may have heard, was THE END for LOST. If you haven't been watching it for the past six years, what were you doing with your life? LOL No, I know. It was one of those things you were either fully emersed in or you didn't want to expend the energy it took to follow it. Because it did take a lot of energy to follow it. And as much as I was held captivated by it, I am really too stupid to really full grasp it. No, seriously. I've read the discussion boards. I've followed other blogs about it. And I'd always be like, "Why didn't I catch that?" or "I completly missed that." My brain is merely too simple to comprehend all the little mysteries and tie-ins and connections that were hidden throughout six seasons of this show. It was no different last night. Honestly, the finale was gripping an...

Me and the boob tube

Ever met someone who is passionate about her TV shows? Well, if not, you have now. Yeah, I'm probably fairly sad with how involved I become with some shows but believe me...I know some folks who are a LOT worse than me. Just trust me on this. I have maybe a handful of shows that I watch without fail whenever they're on and set my VCR to tape if I'm out. (Yeah, I still have a VCR...and I will until they no longer make 'em) Monday night is Medium night. Tuesday night is BB6 in the summer Charmed on TNT in fall. Wednesday is Lost and Alias (in regular season anyway) Thursday night is BB6 in summer and Will and Grace in fall. Friday night sucks since they cancelled Joan of Arcadia. Saturday night is BB6 in summer and Trading Spaces. Sunday night is Desperate Housewives and The 4400 in summer. Everyday things are Gilmore Girls on ABC Family, 30 Minute Meals on Food Network and Bold and the Beautiful. Last night, of course, was BB6. Now, I'm not one to enjoy many reality ...

Ten Things That Make Me Happy Today

Image
1.) Chuck . Chuck makes me very happy. I'm still flying high from the time I spent with him last night. Seriously, it's like the second Zachary Levi walks on screen and gives that trademark smile my heart goes all gooey in my chest and my lips curve up all dreamy smile-ish and for that one hour each Monday night I'm on cloud nine. Pitiful, no? 2.) Her. 'Nuff said. 3.) My friends. All of 'em. Ms. B who I only get to see once a month and chat on the phone every few weeks. E who talks me into field trips to Starbucks so that we can blame each other for being bad. Trix who hated the way Medium ended, too. (And always sends me the awesomest handmade cards.) BFF who calls once a month to update me on the ever shifting drama of her life. (She's doing much better, by the way. Goes back to work next week.) Jen who  once--in a round about way--compared me to the awesome Pioneer Woman. (And who's love story to her fireman still gives me hope that true love real...
