Overtired

I am so tired that I can't possibly sleep.

I got down to the post office--I got the mail.  *SHUDDER*

I only had two bills in the big stack of mail I sorted through--one from Capitol One and one from Xcel Energy.  I had enough money, so I paid them.  Now I have to subsist on about $50 for the next two weeks.  Arg.  No groceries this week, I guess.  Thank goodness I have meat in the freezer and plenty of canned goods.  I will be able to survive.  Also, I have a secret--I always have a hundred dollars more in my checking account than I show in my check register.  It's a little game I play with myself. 

Bad thing:  I drank my last diet coke today.  Can I live two weeks without it??  Inquiring minds are breathless to discover that information!

I had three packages in the mail....whoopee!

One was from Bobbie on the Love All Dolls group.  It was a Flava!  I had always intended to get them--especially the boys--but I was always a little short of cash. Then, suddenly, they were not there any more.  So, getting this girl was nifty.

I also got the package from Florida--20 little Kelly and Kelly clone dolls.  They are adorable.  Several are duplicates of dolls I have or of each other...so I may send some down to Jeanne-Mar and I might also offer to give a couple to the gal from Australia who has a hard time getting barbies. 

I was thinking of sewing a bunch of little white sailor dresses and making them orphans.  I could sew a nun's habit for a barbie and make her into Sister Mary Celeste.  Heh heh....I have an extra Mimi doll....I could sew her a habit and make her Mother Superior of the little orphanage....I don't know what kind of  name would be suitable for her!

It would be sort of like Madeline, but not really.

I also got the knitted bArbie clothes that I got on Ebay.  They are kinda dirty, but really neat.  I think I will hand wash them this weekend.  I could never have parted with them if MY great aunts had sewed them for me.

WEll, I have to TRY to sleep.

I'm just too buzzed up on some kind of endorphin to actually fall asleep!

ARG.

 

High Lord of Poo???

Unlike my new friend Beccak, I have no trouble at all bashing Bush.  Bush deserves bashing at every opportunity. 

In fact, I'm thinking of making my own bushiepoo flags and joining the party!  Viva la Revoluccion!!

 

Heheheheeh

Police in Germany are hunting pranksters who have been sticking
miniature flag portraits of US President George W. Bush into piles of
dog poo in public parks. Josef Oettl, parks administrator for Bayreuth,
said: "This has been going on for about a year now, and there must be
2,000 to 3,000 piles of excrement that have been claimed during that
time."

The series of incidents was originally thought to be some sort of
protest against the US-led invasion ofIraq. And then when it continued
it was thought to be a protest against President George W. Bush's
campaign for re-election. But it is still going on and the police say
they are completely baffled as to who is to blame. "We have sent out
extra patrols to try to catch whoever is doing this in the act," said
police spokesman Reiner Kuechler. "But frankly, we don't know what we
would do if we caught them red handed." Legal experts say there is no
law against using feces as a flag stand and the federal legal experts
say there is no law against using feces as a flag stand and the federal
constitution is vague on the issue.

Bleah.

I'm not quite sure how I managed to piss away this whole day, but suddenly it is 7 pm.  I should get my shit together and get my arse home to Ellendale.  But the LAST thing I want to do is get dressed (been in pjs all day) and drive an hour.  Bleah.

The family has to be at the church by 10 am.  Funeral's at 11.  I suppose it will be about an hour long.  Then the cemetery.  I'll do all those things, but I am NOT going to the dinner thingy that they have after the cemetery.  I will be going home (to mom's probably) after that.

She's having Lily and Jerry over for dinner on Sunday, so I'll clear out on Sunday morning, early.  I've forgiven them for the shit they did to me, but that doesn't mean I want to socialize with them excessively.   Especially since I know for a fact they still do not see a single thing wrong with what they did.

Ah, well.

I'm bringing my sewing along--and I'm considering bringing a big stack of paper crap to sort through.  If I bring that, I should bring my laptop as well, since the paper crap that has information on it that I want is stuff I want to transfer onto computer files.  Which means I need to type it up.  My laptop doesn't have a floppy drive, only the CD drive.  Mom's computer can burn CDs, but I don't know if I can type enough information to make it worth burning into a CD.  I suppose I can always type it and mail it to myself as a file.  I guess I'll do that. 

I'm hungry, having eaten nothing today except a handful of pecans and two toaster waffles, but I don't want to cook anything and the idea of going out for fast food makes me feel a bit ill.

Ack.

I'm going to type a couple of documents up, then I'll pack up my stuff and bolt.  It'll probably be 9 before I get home.

Yuck.

I hate the thought of going to this funeral.  It's going to rip the heart right out of me.
