Avoiding Work

Though that is not me in the photo, that is the comp workstation I am at right now. There's more clutter currently littered about than what is represented here. I attract clutter, it's my one true gift. Miss Kitty hates clutter and always eyes my stacks of books/magazines/notebooks with an impulse to straighten. I keep notebooks on everything. I have a recipe notebook, winemaking notebook, poisonous plants (with pictures) notebook, archaeology notebook(s), and then the random catch-all notebooks that I carry around with me in a messenger bag in case I think of something.
Oh! That reminds me: I had a dream the other night where Miss Kitty and I were in High School with Bobby Brady (of the Brady Bunch) and he had a poorly trained pet monkey. When the monkey wasn't engaged in self gratification he was biting people and turning them into zombies (it's a dream, what can I say?). Finally the dream culminated with a big showdown in the HS cafeteria with me and Miss Kitty taking an axe to the monkey and me yelling, "Fuck you and your goddamn monkey, Bobby Brady!" Then I woke up and had to pee. When I told Miss Kitty the dream she just shook her head and said, "That's actually pretty funny!"

Almost Finished

Some people cannot resist the urge to blink whenever you tell them to not blink. It's like ignoring gravity or something.
Here we have Riechter Von Sanchez, my mom, and the other son, Cree. Neither of my sons would have survived infancy if not for my mother. I was completely baby-ignorant back then, so she came and stayed with me for a month and taught me everything a new moron needs to know so as not to have authorities remove the child from your (my) custody.
Sometimes I wonder where all the time went, now that the kids are nearly adults. But then I remember the sleepless nights and spit-up stained clothes and raccoons tearing apart the trash to get at the poopy diapers and I smile that those days are gone forever.

Undeveloped Country

Who have we got here? That would be my sister, Riechter Von Sanchez in the background, and my sister's boyfriend. The other day I found a roll of film that hadn't been developed so I took it over to Rite-Aid so that I could see what was captured therein. I'm pretty sure that this was taken over Easter weekend. How exciting!
Obviously I'm just killing time until Top Chef airs tonight. *Yawn, stretch*
