ponderings

Sometimes you just sit on the couch in a stripey top and yoga pants pondering over those really deep thoughts in life like....

• If I leave in 5 minutes can I make it to spin class or shall I just drive to the gas station (where they know my name by the way) and buy a DDP?  Either way I really hope that, the dead dragon fly can somehow find it's way off of my windshield wiper without my assistance, but if not, what shall I do?
• Is it worth it to buy a house with a creepy crawl space that I will always imagine dead bodies are buried in, to have 2, count them TWO  walk in closets in the master bedroom?
• Stinky puppies are really nice to have around your house sometimes; like when they come sit next to you on the couch and act like you are really something special. Other times it is not so nice, like when their dog breath stinks up your car when you take them for a ride.
• Reading this blog always makes me feel poetic and makes me wish I could write with the same openness, femininity, and strength.  I really love this post.  I feel the same; that I am in the Tuesday of my life.
• Do other people look at me and think my life is strange?  I bet they do.
• Why do I always feel the need to use so many commas....
• Also this song and the rain are making me really happy today.  I pretty much melt when the temps go over 80.

I am going to open the windows, let the fresh air in, and bake something.  It's just that kind of day.

 Who would have thought that reading this...

 could help me turn this....

 into this...?

 I finally achieved success and learned how to work my new sewing machine!


Merry Christmas to me!

I think I also got some help from that big chill,

and the Meg Ryan movie I was watching.

My Dearest DDP,
It has been a long 25 days without your sweet brown nectar. I think of you often. Sometimes I gaze longingly at gas stations as I drive past. Sometimes when I am with water, I am actually thinking of you, but alas it is not the same my lover. Don't tell water, he would be crushed! I miss your bubbly and guilt free taste on my tongue. Going on errands has lost it's allure without you. My 45 minute commute feels dangerously drowsy without your perky personality. Even Biff misses the days when I would take him for a ride in the car just to visit you at some drive up window. I know not whether our separation will be temporary or permanent. Only time will tell. In July I will see the evil force that pulled us apart (the dentist) and see if it has all been worth it. I hope I have not abandoned you for naught. Though we cannot meet during the waking hours I will see you tonight, in my dreams.


And now for some quotes from my visit(s) to the dentist for your entertainment:

Dentist:
"Your teeth are really good at growing decay."
"Do you drink soda?"
"Do you floss?"
"What a trooper."
"You're going to feel a zinger!"

Other staff at the dentist:
"How long has it been since you've been to the dentist?"
"Your teeth are really white." (weird since my teeth are so good at growing decay)
Receptionist: Where should we go for lunch?
Hygienist: Taco Bell. {Me (only in my head): Gross the meat is 35% meat...?}

Me at the dentist:
"A long time..."
"Let's do this!" (followed by a fist punch in the air as I lay in the chair)
"What's going on with Reba remaking a Beyonce song?"
"My whole cheek is numb; it kinda feels like I got botox."

Happy Flossing!

PS: A eulogy VS an eulogy? I simply could not figure it out (even with the help of google). I followed my gut. Sorry if I am incorrect :(
