Monday

[nightdog_barks]

Sunny and warm. Lots of blue jays coming to splash around in the water, finches and cardinals at the feeder. Too much stuff to take care of today and tomorrow driving me crazy.

Still -- the LA Times has a lovely write-up by novelist Alice Hoffman for Ray Bradbury's 91st birthday. ♥

I went to elementary school with a kid who knocked out one of his upper front incisors on someone else's forehead (they collided running around a corner.) He wore one of those toothed retainer thingees until he finished growing and had a bridge made.

I am sure I will get more used to it (in some fashion) in time, but so far I am hating it.

[pwcorgigirl]

*hugs* It does not sound the least bit fun. And it's just one damned thing after another lately, isn't it?

[nightdog_barks]

IT SURE THE FUCK IS.

Heh. I just now took it out in order to (CAREFULLY) eat dinner (soup) and oh my holy god I look like Granny Clampitt's crazy aunt that they KEEP LOCKED UP IN THE ATTIC.

BUT WE LOVES YOU ANYWAY, AUNTIE! :D

Did they give you a little case for it? Corgikid accidentally threw one of his retainers away at Burger King once because his dad didn't make him take the case when they went out to eat. That was one expensive burger!

[nightdog_barks]

Yep, a little blue case. I left it on the bathroom counter while we had dinner and kept having visions of Chango stealing it. *g*

I can see her now, running merrily through the house with the cool rattly toy clamped in her jaws. :D

[nightdog_barks]

SHE WOULD BE DELIGHTED.

:-D

[pwcorgigirl]

EVEN BETTER THAN TOILET PAPER ROLLS, MOM! :D

[nightdog_barks]

Heh, I remember when Chango was a puppy and she discovered toilet paper rolls -- she went streaking through the house, a steadily-unrolling banner of t.p. streaming behind her. One of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life.

*snorfle*

Um. So now would probably NOT be the time to say somethin' like, Now, Meemaw, don't go talkin' like that.

On account of if I did, they would not EVER find the body.

I KNOW THE BURYIN' PLACES, BB. PLACES IN THE SWAMP.
