Una Chica

Okay, so after losing our first game of the season this morning (football), we're in the car on the way home. I decide to stop off at a local diner and get us all one of their yummy pink lemonade/icee's. I order, I pay, we sit there waiting at the drive-through window. And D. starts beating me. Playing around, but boy does that kid have a mean slap! We're having our fun. He beats me, I beat him. We're square. We get our order and I have to drive home. I say not to mess with me because I could wreck and we could die. He tells me not to mess with him. I say no, it doesn't work that way. I beat him, he dies. It's better that he dies, rather than all of us. If I wreck. :D He laughs and says 'you best leave me alone, woman or else I'll put baby powder on my hands and pimp-slap you'. WTH. He explained what it meant and I laughed my butt off. Smarty pants.

I'm so stoked. I installed a new browser today called Flock and it rocks. I'm still playing with it and I'm posting this entry from within it's blissful confines.

D. played his first football game today. We're the Rams! We played the Bears and beat them 14-6! Go Rams!

Had to restore my desktop pc yesterday back to an earlier date. It was having major issues every time I tried to shut it down. It is doing great now. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I've uploaded lots of new pictures of the Renton family reunion in July to my Ringo account, so if you're a family member, email me if you're not on my friends list and I'll add you! If you're a family member from the Pixler side, I'll be posting those photos from the reunion in June in the next couple of days. Again, if you're not on my friends list at Ringo, email me and I'll getcha added!

I've also been very busy updating my flickr photos. Finally got all of the ones from Disney World in March added and I've been adding several a day from my digital camera cds. So stop by and take a peek. If you're family, but you're not one of my contacts there at flickr, you will need to be added to be able to see shots of the boys. I've had to set privacy levels on photos including them. Sorry, but it was done out of necessity (same with Ringo!).

Chris and the boys are at a car show here in town today. Being boys. Looking at toys. Having fun. I would've gone, but it was too freakin' hot at the football game before 10am this morning. I had to come home to the a.c. Will be updating my other blogs today.

Several new shows on tv this fall I'm looking forward to seeing. I've watched the first 2 eps of Men in Trees and it is looking to be a great show.

Read my take on it here: New Series - Men in Trees and Men in Trees

Other shows I've got set up in my DVR and I'm looking forward to watching include:
Jericho on CBS // Heroes on NBC // Standoff on FOX (2 eps in my DVR now) // Brothers & Sisters on ABC // Six Degrees on ABC // Smith on CBS

Blogged with Flock

I'm a walking zombie today. I couldn't sleep last night, so I've been up for over 36 hours and I'm really dragging here. Had to wash C's gym shorts and run them to school for him in time for 3rd period gym, so no chance of sleep there. Then I had to stay up so I could take Miss Maggie and Oliver to the vet at 2pm. Maggie got all of her puppy shots and she's good for the next year, except for heartworm preventative. Unfortunately, poor poor Oliver had to have a sleepover with them tonight. He's been cat-fighting around the hood lately and he's looking pretty haggard. And he's getting tons of ear mites and hates for us to mess with him for treatment. So they'll take care of all of his cuts and bruises and the mites. yuck. And on a very sad and disturbing note, I must give the worst news yet. He is getting his goodies trimmed. No more candy in the candy machine. The water cooler is going dry. The cookie has crumbled for poor Mr. O. Yup, he's getting neutered today. It's a very sad day indeed.



Now, we're off for some fun. The circus has come to town and that will round out my day. Hopefully I can stay awake. :D

...oh yeah / one last side note / The blinkies were made by me. If you'd like to use them, you may do so after you comment on this entry and lemme know you're using it/them. Enjoy...
