Ridiculous

I have been taking care of my neighbor's cat since the end of March...yes, March. A few days before my neighbor departed for her stint as an artist on Celebrity X cruises, she briefly left me a note that she would be leaving for 100 days. (only a few days before! wouldn't you need a little bit more warning than that?)

Assumption: you will be taking care of my cat while I'm gone.
You won't be going out of town for the summer.
You will be available to help me for a third of the calendar year...

Where the heck is my neighbor?
Any idea of when she will return has been thrown out the window.
My petsitter responsibilities have extended way beyond my 100 days at this point.
I don't know whether to file a missing person's report or put the cat up for adoption.

Anybody want a peanut?


I mini-vacationed to the Frio River last weekend with the Barkers.
Our first full day there, each of the women (four total) found peanuts (both shelled and unshelled) in our bags (five bags total).
The culprits... mice (well, really one mouse that we saw).
He hit the storage jackpot... four women who overpacked for a weekend trip.

ok computer

I said goodbye to an old friend last week... my pc took her last breath on the way to get her data backed up at Uncle Stan's office.
I had no idea she wouldn't even survive the ride over there, though.
She was unresescitatable.
Not one problem powering on and off for four years until she hears I'm replacing her with a younger model... a mac.

RIP dell.
