Oi!

SOOOO unbearably hot today.

But I had a lovely therapy session - my last in a while, because our co-pay is going up from $0 (yup, ZERO) to 50%. So, I'm cured!

Anyhoo, I'm in the process of being positive, so I'm positively looking forward to starting up with the student services therapy in September. I look at August as a nice month off - a vacation from emotional growth, if you will.

So the kid is finding it HILARIOUS to keep saying, "Well, you are 40, after all" even though I am only 38 (I'll be 39 in 14 days - mark those calendars). I don't know why it bugs me, because I look forward to getting older (so I can become one of those cranky old ladies. Well, an old lady, anyway. The cranky is always there.), but it just irks me. In a positive way, of course.

How is it, that the first weekend in AGES that you and your significant other have any time alone together is automatically the weekend you get your period?

We've started watching Arrested Development again. Man. That show is teh funny. Way teh funny.

GOB: Illusions, Michael. Tricks are what whores do for money.

And on that note - ta ta!

A Sad, Sad Day

Bill Walsh died today.

I remember the first time I took an interest in football. It was the 1982 Superbowl and we were at my dad's cousin's house for the day. We kids were in the room with the t.v., which had to be tuned in to the game, and out of sheer boredom, I watched.

I was surprised how interested I was in the game. I love the West Coast Offense Walsh pioneered, and have little patience for anything else.

Once he left the 49ers, I had little interest in football. He made the game interesting.

Whatever

So they keep yammering about this whole "disappearance of the bees" thing, and I'd just like to know - have they not looked in my yard?

Welcome!

Here I am (rock you like a hurricane)!

It's my first post on this fantabulous blog, and I cannot be happier!

Here's a summary of my summer:

• The pool
• The beach
• The weddings (which I didn't attend, but which I sent the Kid to)
• The lazing around
• The reading (even Salem's Lot again! Still scary!)
• The guests
• The Harry Potter
• THE HEAT

More to come. Just glad we're all here!
