Fall aftermath Originally uploaded by Dani H. That's how I described my Sunday two weeks ago to my sister. Our house is very asscentric. Mojo likes to show off his, Rusty gets his spanked when he's bad, Rusty is obsessed with Mojo's, I am currently obsessed with making normal poop come out of Neville's (he's got a diarrhea problem at the moment), Sugar is always looking to kick some, and

Closeup lap cat Originally uploaded by Dani H. Last Friday that cute little kitten there was hanging around outside work. He was all scrawny and wet, and I said if he was still around when I went home he was going to have to go with me. Well, my friend Jason went looking for the kitten, and after sitting back behind the bushes found the kitten and brought him inside.So now the kitten is

We personally are not flooded, but the city and county sure are. The flood has reached "historic proportions," and apparently the governor is in town. Thank god we stayed away from the flood zone when we bought the house.

More duffel cat Originally uploaded by Dani H.. Do you see the sweet little Baby Cat to the right? That little brat gave us a scare earlier tonight, as she's been known to do.While Dave & I were eating dinner, there was a ruckus in the office (Cause: Fat Mojo attack). We went in and broke it up, shooed everyone out.So later, I'm in the office surfing the Net, and I hear something scratching

The house Originally uploaded by Dani H.. We're homeowners. HomeOWNERS. Have been for about a month and a half. And you know what? It doesn't really feel any different. Maybe it's because we aren't totally done with the rental (lease is up at the end of the month; couldn't get out of it). Maybe it's because there are still boxes all over the place (I really should have taken a week off to

I had a lovely long rant all written out, ready to be posted, but after conversations with my boss and Dave, I changed my mind a bit. I'm still quite pissed about my treatment by a friend, but I've decided to assume that, similar to that song by Lonestar, it was just the crazy talking. I guess I just sit back and hope that instead of trying to handle it alone, professional help is sought. And if

So many things bouncing around in my head, and instead of choosing one, I'm going to cram a few in here. I think we'll get the bitchiness and nastiness over with first.It's very enjoyable to call up a friend to check up on them and have them call you a whore and hang up on you. I really wish my friends would do that more often, especially when I'm doing everything I can to help them out. Whatever

I told MB I'd tell Vegas stories, didn't I? That's funny, because I don't have any wild or crazy ones, or even ones people might find interesting. Oh well, you can skip them if you want.We stayed at the Imperial Palace, and you know what?

Because I am so afraid of doing the wrong thing, or not acting fast enough, or saying the one wrong thing that creates the horrible opposite outcome of what I'm reaching for. What if I've already said it? What if my phone call is made a day too late? Or even an hour? How would I live with that failure for the rest of my life? I've already been told that I can't shoulder that responsibility, no

So yeah, it's done, and he defends it on June 15. Then, assuming that no one has shit in their oatmeal that morning and takes it out on Dave and doesn't pass him, he'll

April was a sucky month, so I'm glad it's over. Dave's best friend, Ed, died on April 21. We went out to PA for the services, and Dave was a pallbearer, and it all just sucked. Ed was a super nice guy and should have been around for a lot longer than 39 years.

Kim & Charles' wedding dayOriginally uploaded by Dani H.. Hmm, it's been over a month. So many things to tell.As you can see, my sister got married on March 9; they didn't tell anyone they were doing this, so I had a brother-in-law for two days and didn't know it. Do you think she'll still let me drag her to a bridal shop to try on gowns?My grandpa had knee surgery on March 6, which should have

Pyramid Originally uploaded by Dani H.. I've pretty much had only one thing on my mind for, well, not quite a month. A girl I graduated from high school with, Christina (Fricke) Irvin, was in a very bad car accident on Jan. 12, and she died on Jan. 27.We weren't in touch anymore, but we were friends in middle and high school, so it's just so weird to think that she's gone.

The weather, that is. If I could scoop my sinuses out with a spoon, I totally would. It's nice to have 50-degree days in January and all, but the huge changes in temperature make me want to pop my eyes out with the aforementioned spoon.In other illness news, Dave thinks he may have bronchitis, so he's going to the doctor tomorrow. Let's just hope it's a regular old nasty chest cold, because

I was concerned that my three-day streak of wanting to sit in the bathroom and bawl my eyes out would end Wednesday, but I really shouldn't have been concerned. I was ready to do that after being at work maybe two hours, which really isn't a very good thing.I don't even want to talk about it, it disgusts me and upsets me so much, and I'm pretty sure that not many people would get it. I'm sure I'd

Yes, I've been cast-free for just over a week now, and it's so wonderful! I've never looked forward to washing my face and hair as much as I did the day after it came off. And no, the arm wasn't stinky, but there sure was a lot of nasty, flaky dry skin in there. But I got to wash the arm and hand there in the room right after the cast came off, which was very nice.I don't have full range of

Still broken, and still without the VR program, so maybe this weekend I'll light a fire under Dave to help me with that. Sorry, but that's all. It takes too fucking long to type anything, and I ramble, so no more at the moment.

My wrist, that is. Luckily it's the left one, so I can still write and use the mouse. We have a voice recognition program, so when we get me set up with that, I'll tell the story. Big surprise, the dog is involved.One-handed typing is for the birds.

As usual, the promises to myself to be better about posting have not worked, but you know what, I just don't care ... so there! But MB told me to make with the blog, and I happened to have e-mailed a post to myself from work Tuesday night, so I'll stop being lazy and post it.I promised the story of Rusty's last trip to the vet almost a month ago, and here it is.Rusty had puked every day for

That's what it's like every time I step outside, and IT SUCKS! I'm sick of it! Stupid weather. This is going to be quick, because the computer is upstairs and it's too blasted hot to be up here right now - the window AC needs to work a bit harder, I think.I've been quite productive in tracking down classmates, and it's been kind of trippy calling all these random people out of the blue, but I've

My 10 year high school reunion is next month, and I'm not happy. It's not that I don't want to go, I do; it's that no real invitations were sent out. "They" decided to just send out e-vites, as far as I can tell, and I just don't think that was the best way to do it. For starters, even now, not everyone has e-mail. I graduated with 133 people, and let me tell you, there are NOT 133 people listed

No, not the weed killer. A brief overview of recent events.There's still no word on the family friend that's missing, aside from two people seeing him peek his head into a bar the Friday after he went missing. So, that makes things even weirder, in my opinion.Rusty peed in the bedroom early Saturday morning (just before 2 a.m.) just as I was settling in to begin "Harry Potter and the Half Blood

A friend of the family, a guy I've known for as long as I can remember, has been missing since sometime the night of July 3/morning of July 4. No one's heard from him, his credit cards haven't been used, his car hasn't turned up, nothing. This has been the main topic of conversation for the last several days whenever I talk to my parents, and they've been going to his parents' house the last few

I like Monday holidays, as we don't have a Monday paper so I get Sunday off and have a real weekend. I did absolutely nothing productive on Saturday, which was lovely. On Sunday we pulled the weeds out of the one flowerbed we've done anything with, then planted some more flowers and put some mulch down. My legs are killing me from all the squatting, bending down, etc., but the flowers look nice.

And then MB broke the rules and tagged me, too. So I guess my assignment is to list my current six favorite songs and then pick six others to do the same.OK, my songs are, in no particular order:1. Redneck Woman by Gretchen Wilson2. Beer for My Horses by Toby Keith and Willie Nelson3. You'll Think of Me by Keith Urban4. Break Down Here by Julie Roberts5. Speed by Montgomery Gentry6.

We did find my sister by the way. Long story short, the outside phone lines were very, very bad and it took them several days to get it fixed. I tried her one more time that Friday morning before calling her neighbor, and she answered. And after I told her I was going to call the neighbor or drive to Akron, I'm pretty sure she thought I was crazy.

Well, Dave and I trekked to the Outer Banks of North Carolina last week, and I must say, as nice of a time as it was, I've never been so happy to see the streets of Findlay as I was at 2:15 a.m. Sunday. What should have been a 14-hour drive home (which is plenty long as it is) turned out to be a 16.5-hour drive home, due to all the traffic around Virginia Beach, Williamstown, etc. Plus I had a

So nobody's heard from Kim since Monday, and we're getting a little concerned since they were supposed to get the phone hooked up Tuesday and she said she was going to call my parents, but, as I said, has not. We've tried calling their alleged number at all hours of the day to no avail. We just get voice mail, which is more encouraging than a message saying we've called a nonworking number, but

Sometimes anger is a good thing. I wish it was a good thing more often, since I seem to be angry all the time these days, but at least Sunday it made me a bit productive. I got so mad yet again about having 50,000 boxes crammed into closets and put in the garage without having been sorted through when we moved A YEAR AGO that I actually threw a bunch of crap out, found three (small) things to put

OK, here's the Sugar Puddin' story, as promised.I was outside with the dog when I heard someone say, "Oh my god no! Get back here!" Rusty ran to the side of the house, so I thought it was the boy with the dog that runs loose, being scared because I've threatened to call the dog warden the next time that dog gets anywhere near Rusty. I went to the side of the house, no boy, no dog. I realized it

I think my life is about to get easier. I have finally figured out that what I say really doesn't matter. This explains why, whether I'm having a civil conversation or screaming obscenities, it all goes in one ear and out the other. For all these years, I've been under the impression that my thoughts and opinions carried some weight, but they don't. Therefore, I no longer have to bother carrying

Guess what I'm doing today, as soon as I get my lazy ass in the shower? I'm heading up to BG to look for housing for ... my sister! I'll tell the story later, but the short version is there's a good chance that she & Charles will be moving up to northwest Ohio! Holy crap!I will also tell the story of Sugar Puddin's big adventure later, if I remember.

OK, the serious dieting must begin, and the reason is threefold (as was the purpose of Chandler being in the box on Thanksgiving on "Friends," but I digress).1. My 10-year high school reunion is this summer. I'd like to look really good, but I'll settle for decent.2. We're going on vacation to the Outer Banks with my in-laws in June. See second sentence of No. 1.3. I'm just tired of being fat and

Either the house is extremely hot right now, or my sinus problems are causing me to run a fever. Either way, I feel like I'm having a heat stroke and going outside doesn't help because I just get overheated as soon as I come back inside! Bleh.I haven't been able to post because Dave keeps hogging the computer, but that's OK because I don't have much to say right now.I discovered this morning --

Three products I love right now:1. Oil of Olay's body wash with shea butter for severely dry skin. I always have such dry skin in the winter that every day after I shower I make Dave put lotion on my back, otherwise I'd be itchy all day and my skin would hurt where my bra hit. Then I got a coupon at Meijer for this body wash, so I decided to try it. Since I started using it, I haven't needed the

I guess I need to start copying everything before I try and post it so I can go back and paste it in when it refuses to post.To briefly go over what I TRIED to say a few minutes ago, either I'm retarded or Ohio's government Web site sucks, because I can't find information about online business rules or

Add Ohio to list of things that piss me off - oh wait, it's already on that list. We'll just bump it up to the top! Why is it that I can't find any information about the state's rules for online businesses on the state's Web site? I know there are online businesses based in Ohio, and I'm sure you have to have some kind of vendor's license, but I can't find a damned thing about it. Maybe I'm just

Eh, so it's not the next day or during daylight hours, but at least it's not two weeks later. Really not much to tell anyway.

I just had Dave dig out his copy of HTML 4 Dummies, and I'm already intimidated. It's an awfully thick book for a dummy to read. But I'm gonna read it, even if it takes me months and months to get through and actually understand.

Happy 2005, everyone! So much to tell, so little desire to type, but here goes. Went to Pennsylvania for Christmas, and had a nice visit with the in-laws. Had to leave a day late because of the huge-ass snowstorm the day before we were supposed to leave. The roads were just fine all the way out though, so it turned out OK. Got to see pretty much everyone, bonded a little with my sister-in-law

I am such a scrooge this year - I can't even begin to guess how many times I've muttered/said/shouted "I hate Christmas" or some variation on that in the last month or so. I'm sick of fighting crowds in stores and sitting in a parking lot just waiting to get in or out (or into the Bob Evans parking lot) and being told "I'm sorry, we don't have that, but we can special order it" and having people

I wanted to post yesterday, but it just didn't happen. So, I'm announcing, belatedly, the one-year anniversary of the appearance of the burn on the blog. Just over a year ago I was an idiot and burned the shit out of my arm on the iron, and I now have a nice little scar. It's faded quite a bit, but it's still there, and always will be.

It's amazing how different two weekends can be. One good, one bad. Let's talk about the good one first. Almost two weeks ago, Dave and I headed down to Athens to spend a few days with the little one (known to most as Kim). We took the dog to the kennel Thursday morning and then began our trek down south. Once in A-town, we checked into the Amerihost and then went to Casa (restaurant where Kim

Just one more day, I just have to make it one more day before a little more vacation time and trekking down to Athens and going to the keith urban concert. And what a day-from-hell it's going to be. Election Day, how I hate thee. Don't get me wrong, voting is great and you should all go vote, but damn it sucks to work at a daily paper on election night. Especially during a presidential election,

Vacations are nice, even if all you do is laze around the house. I took Wednesday and Friday off (I have Thursdays and Saturdays off), and to be quite honest, I haven't done a whole hell of a lot. I've worked on Dave's Halloween costume, drunk (drank?) a lot of coffee, played mosh pit with the dog, and kicked the computer's ass at a Scrabble-esque game. It's fun to be lazy! And for now, I can

This was quite the interesting day. Nothing out of the ordinary for most of the day, but we discovered an AP photo of John Kerry campaigning in Xenia holding up a copy of the Courier. There was a big brouhaha last week regarding something John Snow said during a visit to Findlay, and the Dems picked it up and ran with it.

Oh, good god, the next time someone hears me say I'm going to make something out of velvet, shake me and remind me of Dave's Halloween costume, OK? It's almost done, thanks to phone help from the Pammer, but it has been a BITCH! As Dave likes to say about things, it's been at least a 100 effer (as in f---er) project. Now all I have to do is hem the robe, and that part is done. Then the hat, and

It's rare these days that the computer's free when I get home from work. Dave's teaching online classes now, so he spends a lot of time on this here machine. It just doesn't seem right to say "Hey, stop doing work so I can mess around online," ya know? Lots of stuff has gone on since my last post, not much of it very interesting. Most of it's just the little kinds of things that's of no interest

Since I tend to not pay attention to the news on my day off, this is a day or so late, but California sucks. Actually, most of the states suck, Ohio in a big way, but Calif. just made headlines for sucking, so they're getting singled out. If you don't know what I'm talking about, then you suck too.

Ah, I beat my last record of length between posts. How nice. I'm going to do better from now on, I swear. Even if the online classes Dave's teaching have to be pushed aside.

Well, this is what I get for not posting in a month and a half. The site is all different, and I don't know what the hell's going on. I'm all confused! Sons of bitches! Things have just been too crazy for the last several weeks, and I should have at least hopped on to say "Hey, I'm still here!" but I didn't. We moved, we got a dog (which I'm still questioning), I've been hella busy at work, and

Well, we signed our lease Friday. A nice little two-story house here in town. Street seems quiet, we're near a park, and there's a bit of a yard for the puppy. Inside, stairs for the cats to race up and down on, nooks to hide in, and a pantry in the kitchen for Baby Cat to perch upon. I think we'll be happy, even though there's only one bathroom. Not much else going on. I'm distraught over the

Oh man, I wish I could tell you what I did Wednesday. It's a secret though, and I'm not sure if I'm allowed to tell yet. If the curiosity starts to kill you before I can tell, too bad! I will tell you it's work-related, but that's all you'll get from me, for now. And that I'm proud to have been a part of it. As a treat, and totally unrelated to what I did Wednesday, I'm taking Friday off from

Kindly ignore my last post. I was mistaken. I would much rather waste more than $15,000 on renting a house over the next two years instead of buying one on the off chance that we'd have to move and sell it. I'd much rather be stuck with whatever paint, carpet, etc. a rental has. Thank you. *BURN UPDATE* Don't ask.

Ever wanted something so bad you absolutely can't stand it? So bad that it's all you can think about? All you can talk about? I have. It's called a house. A place where every room doesn't have off-white walls and tan carpet, where you can hang something up without worrying about losing part of your deposit because of nail holes, a place that doesn't have paper thin walls so you can hear the kid

Hmmmm should I start the same way as the last one? Wow, it's been a while, huh? But that's OK. All I would have done is bitch for the most part anyway. The reason for my lack of posting is that by the time I get home from work these days, the last thing I want to do is get back on a computer. BLEH! Anyway, we did buy a truck, and we did get my window fixed, so that's good. The truck is a 2000

Wow, it's been a while, huh? I'm sure the two people who read this are pretty pissed, but I know you'll get over it. In my defense though, this is only partly my fault. Some nights, no, I didn't feel like getting back on the computer after work. Some nights Dave was working so I couldn't get on here. Anyway, we've decided on a truck, and we're just waiting to get Dave's next paycheck so we can

Today was the best day! Know why? I went to the dentist! Bet you never thought you'd hear someone say that! But I just did, so cross that off the list of wacky things you'll never hear. I had a very decay-infested front tooth (gross, very gross, but that's what happens when you drink too much soda) and now it's fixed! I'm not embarrassed to smile anymore!

Election night, how do I hate thee? There are too many ways to count. But we made deadline, squished every stupid levy and primary race in, and ate our weight in junk food (everyone brings a tasty dish in on election night). And the incumbent county commissioner got the boot, so WOO-HOO! One down, one to go! On a sad note, I managed to get a paper cut UNDER the nail of my right index finger, and

Yeah, I was totally unproductive this weekend. I did get some dishes done, but that's about it. Oh well, there's always Thursday. Work sucked ass. That's all I'm going to say about that. I saw a fabulous sign whilst browsing the AP photos tonight. It was out in San Francisco; I can't remember if they were at a protest or at the courthouse or what, but it said "Preserve Marriage Ban Divorce"

I think I have a version of a cold. No stuffiness to speak of, but a terribly dry throat. Actually, my nose is pretty dry (and yes, I know how odd that sounds). Anyway, no matter how much water I drink I still feel parched. Poor Dani! Maybe it's because I haven't had a soda in two days. I went to the dentist Wednesday, and I've been a bad, bad girl. I need lots o' fillings because I drink way

It's so depressing finding out you really cannot hold your liquor. In the BGSU days, I could keep up with just about anyone, but no more. We went to the AMVETS Valentine's Day dance with Joy and Rodney Saturday night, and my buzz began with my first rum & coke. By the time I finished No. 3, it was all over. In my defense though, they were big glasses; they used those big red plastic cups. I was

Just a quickie 'cause my head is killing me. Star is back home, safe and sound. She was just two doors down from my parents' house, and they finally got around to calling the humane society Thursday, and found out where she belonged. Fat Mojo is just fine. Apparently he just has some wacky "pigmentation" on the belly. *BURN UPDATE* It's asleep.

Damn lunchlady bitch spit on my dessert today. My parents' puppy, Star aka Star-baby, is missing. She's been gone since Tuesday evening. I'm hoping that a well-meaning person picked her up and will see the signs and bring her home. You all had better stay away from me for a while, becuase my bad karma is apparently spreading. No word on Mojo. *BURN UPDATE* Who cares?

As I stand in the line of the cafeteria of life, I look at my plate piled high with work casserole and financial casserole and say "That is so not what I ordered!" I take it back to the lunchlady of life and tell her she screwed up, to fix it but not to touch the personal dessert. She flips me off and piles more casserole on, but thankfully doesn't take my dessert. Well guess what lunchlady? I'm

I would like to apologize to Meijer for saying mean things about them. They still make their lotion tissues, and I stocked up last week. Now, anybody who had a suck-ass Thursday raise your hand (or just a finger if it was really bad). We had a really bad Thursday, so I am currently flipping that day the bird. It started when I got home from work and saw Fat Mojo sprawled out on his back,

Has it really been a week? What a bad seed I am! And nothing exciting has happened, so I have no excuse. We went down to the Pammer & the Papa's house Saturday. Watched the tape of the previously mentioned ex-step-cousin on Maury. Lovely. Also got to see our little Rusty! He's such a sweet little thing! Dad and mom say it's all an act, but I don't believe them. SO wish we could bring him up now

There was a little soiree for my momma's 50th birthday Friday, and boy did we trick her!

I'll start the way I ended the last one: Fat Mojo is demanding attention. Daddy apparently has been asleep for more than an hour so there's been no belly rubs for the big-eyed boy. Damn but he's a crybaby! So I did A1 today, with much help from Ted, and I am not a happy camper. I know it'll get better, but it gave me a headache today.

As nice as it's been to have an extra day off the last two weeks, there is one good thing about the holidays being over...I may actually know what day it is at some point in the coming week. I'm not making any promises, but it could happen. I am currently reading "Lord of the Rings" and I must say, it's pretty damn good.

There were a few parts that got me, but I think the main one was when...oh, maybe I shouldn't say, in case people haven't seen it yet. I'll just say it's toward the end and involves Frodo.
