Okay so I’m crabby.

I’m not too incredibly crabby. Just a bit cranky. I thought – I’ll get into the kitchen and get my lunch ready for tomorrow early. After that I’ll get my tea ready, my meds ready for morning and I’ll be able to enjoy a few hours without thinking about what I have to do next.

I made my container of roughage err salad, I had chopped up all the lettuce last night, made sure I mixed in the carrots and everything. I cut up a new cucumber, boiled a few eggs and crumbled them. I had all the ingredients so I made it with no trouble.

My tea on the other hand, was another story. I make 2 travel mugs, one is lemon tea and the other is Tetley. I drink the lemon at home while getting ready for work and the Tetley I drink at my desk when I get to work. I had NO EQUAL. Use real sugar? I DO! The Equal is to stop me from using 7 teaspoons per mug. I like it sweet, okay?

Yeah, and then I have no apples. I wanted an apple in my lunch! So while I do enjoy my whining time I decided to do something about it instead.

“ANDY!!!!!”

Yes, I yelled for my son who is now getting me some Equal, a gallon of skim milk, and a bag o’ apples. Yay me!

My meds are ready, set in their cup with care and in a little while with goodies – my son will appear!

Okay, enough of that crap. I might not be so crabby once I have my makeup off, moisturizer on, and my head snuggled deep in the pillows.

Listening to my forensic shows as I drift off. Sounds soothing, doesn’t it? I think so!

Sheesh.

The last few days my Google reader has been showing 12 posts. 12 posts I had already read, but when I clicked to mark them that way - they wouldn't change. I thought - okay, Google is having problems. I'll bet when I check tomorrow, the ones I tried to mark as read will not be showing as unread anymore. Um . . . no.

What I didn't think about, and I cannot believe I didn't notice this - but that number of posts, 12, was not going up either. Today I realized that too many days had passed with no new posts from bloggers that frequently post every day, or at least - every other day. So I started clicking. There were posts all over the place!

After rebooting my computer (I DO work in I.T.) I had 60 posts to read. I'm sure I could have just restarted Firefox but whatever. Rebooting had the desired effect.

So what did I do then? I read and read and barely commented at all. I STILL feel guilty when I do that and feel like I need to come out and apologize as if every person who writes a blog I read is offended when they realize (immediately of course) that I haven't been leaving my love notes on their blogs. Sigh.

I need to get over myself.

You can't SEE-E-E me!!

I know she thought so.






And I know I wasn't supposed to let her play inside the plastic zip bag. But honestly, it was very hard not to zip her in. She's the evil one, remember?
