Youz a bit drunk already? At 20h30? I only had half a glass of wine accompanying my dinner. Well, there's a bottle of port in my kitchen cupboard and I might take a couple of glasses later on/in the evening.

Cheers.. (or ad fundum.. and good to see you back here)

Writing a paper on the rise of disability fraud. Its an argumentative paper, and my thesis is "The government is not handling disability claims properly"."
"I’m fearless in my heart.
They will always see that in my eyes.
I am the passion; I am the warfare.
I will never stop...
always constant, accurate, and intense."

Went to the dump and off loaded 1100lbs of nasty insulation
Unloaded the van
Picked up 1500lbs new insulation to replace it tomorrow
Drove 40 miles to measure an addition
Cleaned and vacuumed the trailer

Woke up.
Vacuumed.
Walked my dog.
Got online.
Ate lunch.
Walked to cafe.
Am now between reading, typing notes, and aspie forums.

EDIT:
After I left the cafe I had to pee really really really bad, so I stopped in a frozen yoghurt shop. I went pee, but then I had to buy an expensive frozen yoghurt (I had to because the bathroom was for costumers only). Therefore I (reluctantly) grabbed a bowl and filled it with brownie and cookie cake frozen yoghurt flavours, and then (painstakingly) added brownie bits and marshmallows, and (furiously) shook chocolate sprinkles on it. Then the cashier weighed the bowl and I payed for it with my last monies (I have 37 cents left). I was thanking the heavens it didn't cost more than that because they charged by weight and I had no idea how much it was going to weigh.

Then, I had to sit in the bloody shop and eat the whole bowl (because outside it was raining) while the television was turned up really loud on the FOX channel (I wished I had ear plugs). A boxing match came on (baseball was delayed) and it was interesting, I also saw footage (on the second giant TV, muted) of the bombings in Boston (how disturbing). Luckily I did not have to endure the chatter of other customers over the TV volume because I was the only customer for awhile.

I noted that the shop's orange disposable yoghurt spoons were very well designed and easy to scoop and lick frozen yoghurt off of. I also noted how FOX seemed to be catering to Latinos, which makes sense if they are trying to brainwash more minorities so they will vote for a new republican President. Additionally, I was disappointed (but not so surprised) that the marshmallows I chose as toppings were stale.

Finally, I finished up the bowl just as new customers were coming in. It had stopped raining so I packed up my umbrella and made my way back across the bridge to home. While I walked, I mused that the orange disposable spoons were excellent for frozen yoghurt consumption but really would have been useless for any other type of food (except ice cream and regular yoghurt, obviously). I regretted throwing the spoon away because it would have made an interesting souvenir.

The sky was beautiful, with varyingly thick patches of cloud cover: in the west, sunlight was lighting up different could shapes as it slowly descended towards the horizon; far above it (still in the western sky) the waxing crescent moon was blearily visible through the sky's foggy veil. To the south east, on the other hand, the sky was dark and it was clearly still raining in that direction. I hoped that the storm would stay put (over there) for awhile and not decide to ambush me on my way home.

It didn't. I stayed dry, the baseball game resumed, and the storm may have passed.

But now I have slight reflux from all the frozen yoghurt I ate. No regrets however. It was DELICIOUS! :D

Short version:  The PR put a book in the living room yesterday to return it to the library.  PA saw it and threw it somewhere in the pile of crap I had accumulated.  She asked where the book was.  An argument ensued and PA started throwing EVERYTHING in FURY looking for the book.  The result was 11 trash bags and 2 large odd shaped empty boxes out the door, a run to the thrift store and I have some more stuff all ready in the car to go to the thrift store tomorrow.  Four pillowcases of clothes from the living room have been washed, with another 3 awaiting wash.

One of the aggravating things about 12 step programs is that when you ask G_d for help with your problems, you ignore His solution at your own risk.  I'd been praying and G_d had been answering me and I'd been ignoring his answers.  I thought the next time G_d helped with the mess in my house he might burn the place down. 

Seriously, all is good.  See the How Are You Feeling thread for a list of aches and pains.

A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

Picked up a 2 yr old mower out for trash. Pending further evaluation, but at least it looks like they didn't hit anything with it.

We've got people here who drive around in a van looking for things being thrown out that they can sell for scrap.  When the microwave packed up a while ago, I put it out on the pavement one evening and it was gone by the next morning.

Very very little (.. I've done today). Had planned to do a bit of gardening but the hard wind here made me go 'meh'.

Jesus, when did I become this 'puus'?
