It was a super day anyway. thumbsup


I went out and skipped all over my neighborhood with a basket of rose petals, spreading them around, and singing "the hills are alive with the sound of music." razz


People didn't seem to mind at all, except for that grizzled, unshaven, fat, bald guy two blocks over who threw his beer at me, and then got in his truck and chased me all the way back home, calling me a frigging fairy. shocked


I won't go past his house again. shame


No Christmas card either. blech


How was your day? grin


Welcome to the weekend everyone. yay

Joe, sounds like a perfectly normal way to spend the day to me. lol

Taintedfury, that sounds like a great plan, I'm sure the man will appreciate it. lol

Have fun at the wedding, Ana! Enjoy your time with the dogs and James as well. grin

It's late Friday night, and I'm off to sleep. I spent way too long playing The Council today. Great game, highly recommended for anyone who wants to try something new. thumbsup

No voice lesson tomorrow, as my voice teacher is on vacation, so I'll just have to practice on my own instead. smile

Hope everyone has a terrific Saturday. spring

Well, daughter, g'son, and SO are on the way to the airport. They are probably there now. Boys are at the beach with mom. Son is at work. For the first time in weeks I am the only 2 legged person in the house. Therefore, I Must cook the books. Thought I would have time to do it while daughter went to the beach, but she never went to the beach. We had a great visit. Now to recover. lol wavegirl

Well, daughter apparently brought the cold weather with her and took it back when she left. It's a beautiful warm day out there. We are just cleaning up from having a full house for 3 weeks.
