tired. waiting. tired & waiting.

Dear blog,
I've been very busy lately, sorry I've been MIA. My sister and nephew came to visit, and they ran us ragged. Alcatraz, house hunting, kayaking, surfing, dog parks, brunch @ the Ritz...my 43 year old sister and 18 year old nephew have more energy than a pack of kittens.

Even Puddin had to sit down for some r&r time.



Anyway, we are anxiously awaiting to hear about a house we bid on Thursday. And I do mean anxiously. This one feels different for reasons I won't go into here, and I don't want to curse it. I just will continue to wait. Ug.

In the meantime, some distractions:

The worst thing ever. How did grandma not hear what was going on?? wtf.

I though I was going gray!

Yes, I'll marry you, Kathy Griffin!

Is she flagging a gay pride flag?

Ha! SJ, you're right. This is hilarious! Twitter, twatter.



okay, bye.

emotions

SAD THINGS:

RIP Natasha Richardson. What a cool woman. AIDS activist. and just seemed so very nice. Her death is just SAD.

The Parkway Speakeasy in Oakland is closing. NOO! Beer, pizza, couches and Rosemary's Baby. I have only been a few times, but we were really excited about the Parkway since we're eventually going to be living in Oakland.


COOL THINGS:



Redefining. or Defining, actually.



STUPID THINGS:

Gay guy and desperate wife are staying together! Christians everywhere rejoice!!

They are not interesting enough for a chart that follows the course of their relationship.

"Life Lessons from an Idiot" on sale soon.


FUNNY THINGS:

Weird facebook groups.


Meat baby.


HOPEFUL THINGS:

awesome things.

Sexy people. And lots of them.



A very, very friendly turtle:



a turtle..dog??

Chocolate, but not for your dogs.

This yard (we're going to look at sunday):



TOY FACTORY!

I AM HUNGRY. Seriously, this looks so good right now:



And...last but not least: Baby Weaves.

bye!

annoying things

1. Not getting your offer accepted on a house you want, despite the fact you bid $35,000 over asking.

2. "ninjas"


3. Dirty dishes in the work sink. It's always the same person, who thinks that if you complain about it, you "need a prescription."


well, i'm sick of seeing oatmeal floating around when i go prepare my lunch. so..



which reminds me, have you seen this site? LOVE IT.

4. bigots with money

5. in some states gays can't adopt, but .....

6. see #5

7. Again, we are less than.

8. See #7.

9. not being able to come into work at 9:30 like somepeople.

i think that's enough for one day, yeah?

waiting. and S&M masks.

Bid on house. Hello, bank? Do you like our offer? Could you let us know...thanks? We are developing ulcers. Call us, thanks, bye.


Things almost distracting me:

Po and Puddin' as S&M masks! This makes me laugh. (photo by Coyote)



This nutty kid:



This is fun. I didn't have enough patience for the whole rotation. I got hungry for sushi.

A bill named after Octomom.
Awesome.

Speaking of crazy parents. Is this the future of parenting? Next...drive-up orders.

I find it interesting that one of the smartest women in the world owns dogs that are known to be..well, not the brightest dogs in the park.

You know I love my Angie, but this is funny:" Salt is about some spy who pouts her lips a lot, shoots things and frowns whenever she's in a tricky situation. Same Angie shit. You can just call this shit Lara Smith Is Wanted In Sixty Seconds." tee hee!



If only the world was filled with unicorns, rainbows and pink dolphins. We're getting there!

okay, gonna take a bath. and gonna go dream of a house with 2 sinks.
