The Internet is finally back at fullspeed here at our house… and of course I’m 100% writers’ blocked.

But do you think that will stop me? HA! NO! A little point-form for ya.

– Ms. Crafty Girl has turned me on to swap-bot… and now I have to force myself not to sign up for every dang swap there is. Because while receiving mail is awesome and one of my favourite things ever, I can’t justify spending thousands of dollars to send mail to others (plus we all know how I am retarded at actually making my way to the post office) (and I WOULD spend thousands of dollars on others, if I could, because I love giving people stuff!) (okay enough parentheses!).

- Rob has SARS. Or a cold. Something like that. At this very moment he is lying upstairs and I am sending him little messages on the computer (yeah, too lazy to go all the way up there unless completely necessary) making sure he’s still alive. So far so good.

- Over the past two days I have watched every episode of this past season of Dr. Who. I don’t like the new companion, but what can you do… and oooh, I get all tingly when the Doctor gets angry and wrathful. No reason, really. But yes. It’s a great show, you should watch it (starting at the very least when Chris Eccleston was the Doctor, you don’t have to go back 40-odd years, just three).

- My eardrum is still all jacked up even though I took my meds like I was supposed to. Have you ever seen a jacked up eardrum? Better yet, have you ever tried to live with one? I’m dizzy all the time and it’s NOT FUN!

- There is a skunk outside our house right now and it s-t-i-n-k-s. It didn’t spray anything, it’s just going around smelling up the place. Skunks don’t generally bathe that much, you know.

- This coming saturday we are having an end-of-summer barbecue with over 20 guests. I’m a little nervous. Here’s hoping it doesn’t rain. If it does rain, we will have 20+ people inside our tiny house. Maybe we can play Charades!

- My parents are leaving their cat with us when they go off on vacation the first week of September. I’m a little nervous of that, too.

- I just realized that this post sucks the old bone! So I’m stopping now!
