    I have not swung a golf club yet this year.

    All the good weather (somewhat limited this spring compared to usual) I've used for yard work or Harley riding.

    Tuesday I'm supposed to golf in an outing for work to raise money for a cancer research hospital. One of my customers sets up the fundraiser and I've attended for maybe 7-8 straight years. It raises a lot of money (entry is $10k for three golfers, the company setting up the event puts an exec type from their company in each group) for a really good cause. Though the entry fee doesn't come out of my pocket (my company foots my cost of entry) I do shell out a few hundred bucks of my own each year at this event on various games and contests they run to raise additional funds.


    Take a second to check out City of Hope. They do great work there. Golfing and fighting cancer? Uncle Phil would be proud.

    I will never understand this space. Fucked up beats. And a bunch of people standing on the dance floor.

    My husband is out of town for the week on a camping trip with his Scout troop. The dogs know something is up, because as soon as we came upstairs they both jumped on the bed. They never jump on the bed. I'm not complaining :D

    Apparently, I put on my cranky pants this morning instead of my smarty pants.
    But thanks not the guy at Mellow Mushroom who answered the phone early to confirm that they have my debit card.
    Idiot bartender never gave me back my card after we ordered a beer prior to dinner.
    So that was at least a happy thing for today... that at least I know where it is.
    I still want to slap people, though.

    Me, too. But I'd like it to wait until I'm back at home and can curl up in bed.

    after a long, lovely walk on the beach i was, apparently, carried away by this nature thing so that i approached a bird blind in a marsh area without putting on any bug repellent. this was not a good idea.

    I forgot to mention that I was woken up with a full hot breakfast and a cup of coffee.

    I'm going to start randomly breaking stuff around the house so I can fix it.


    Oh, and never call a plumber for anything I can't handle ever. Who knows what'll happen. :p

    Apparently I was part of a class action lawsuit I didn't know about.

    American Express sent me a check for $8.23 as my settlement.

    Who is up for an $8 party today?!?

    My mentor teacher is in my morning class. Now I can continue to hassle him about my letter of recommendation.
