Fol-del-rol and fiddle-dee-fuck!
Thursday, Apr. 03, 2008 at 8:28 a.m.

So I have this habit of wandering around the house during the evening. It�s probably related to the fact that I sit chained to a desk all day, so I have nervous energy when I get home. Hubster, however, spends a good portion of his day wandering around the building where he works and looking at pieces of aluminum to figure out where the floor workers screwed up in extruding it again, so he tends to sit still in the evenings. Mostly, he likes to commit pixilated mayhem on his 1995 computer game with the lame graphix. But hey, he likes it, and the computer will play it while blasting out his iTune library. It just so happened that I wandered into the office to kiss the Hubster�s bald spot that �Welcome to the Jungle� was playing so I started dancing this odd arm-waving-while-marching dance in the line of Hubster�s peripheral vision. Just to be annoying, of course, but Hubster responded by laughing his guts out and then he jumped up and pushed me into the bedroom and tossed me (as much as he can toss me, I still have 100 pounds on him) on to the bed.

I�m gonna go dance in his peripheral vision much more often!

In other news, we had a busy weekend. We spent Saturday morning participating in the neighborhood rummage sale, and we got rid of a bunch of stuff and made some cash. Always good, ne? We also took down our ratty American flag and it just so happened that a kid wearing a Boy Scout uniform came by our sale, so we made him take the flag for us. And we sold him a bowling ball. Yes!

Sunday was pretty well taken up by the Hubster�s work�s summer picnic, complete with Honey Bear's BBQ, where you don�t need no teeth to eat their meat. Gah! I completely blew my Weight Watcher�s points for the day but I didn�t care, they had Honey Bear�s mac and cheese, which I would gleefully sell any of your children for. Since I don�t have kids of my own to sell. You see. Anyhoo. We were also gifted with a $25 GC for Macaroni Grill, and we got to watch all the kids play on a number of bouncy castles and obstacle courses. It was fun.

So now I�ve started knitting the infamous squid hat for the hubster, which will eventually look like this:

But the Hubster�s will be a denim blue color with red eyes. Well, I thought white would get too dirty. Hubster wants this to wear while snowboarding. I�ve already told him that if people want me to knit one for them as well, it will be $300 cash up front. I am completely tangled in tentacles for that thing. Yikes! I am also knitting socks and I have to finish yet another pair of Foofies for Dad � I just have to sew on the grippy stuff on the bottom. Dad is doing well. I talked to him yesterday and his strength is returning. He actually sounded pretty chipper, which is good. It appears that he will have to go through a round of radiation and a round of chemo, just to be sure to kill any remaining colon cancer cells, but we�re all staying pretty positive that this one round should do the trick. Dad�s not quite sure what�s going on, but he knows that he will have to see some new doctors for new treatment. He�s more worried about the fact that his new custom shoes are not in yet and he wants to go to Biloxi to the casino. The radiation oncologist laughed and told him he could still go, but just on the weekend! But the treatment round should only last 5 � weeks. Not sure why the �. Oh well.

We ourselves leave on Sunday to go to Northern California, where I will spend the week hopefully drinking wine, buying nifty yarn, and stalking Jamie from Mythbusters. Did I say "stalking"? I didn't mean that. Not quite.

God, but I do love me a handlebar moustache. Mmmm. Furry.
