Yesterday morning I was stepping out onto the back deck to let the beasts out, and pop-squish... I stepped on something very grotesque. I was afraid to look, and just sort of walked it off across the deck.. trying not to hurl. When I looked back, it was one of those huge loud cicadas. I always called them locusts, but Mr tells me they're cicadas. BLECH!! One had committed suicide in the dog water bowl, and I think the other was hanging out next to the bowl .. missing his friend? And I squashed him. I'm not sure which one was having the crappier day.. the drowned one or the depressed and squished one! Then I had to go and clean my foot out in the tub, because there were unknown intestinal things stuck between my toes. Flippin' bugs.
Today I mopped the kitchen floor. Am I the only one that loves the smell of original Pine-Sol? Seriously, I used to love mopping when I was a kid, just so I could dump the Pine-Sol into the hot water and InHaLe!! Perhaps that is what's wrong with me now?? But Monkey walked into the kitchen, "That smells good!". I see that whole apple falling from the tree expression is true :)
Tonight we have Girl Scouts camping out on our living room floor. My friend from up North is taking her little scouts to see a play tonight.. they're actually in town all day. And instead of driving home late, they're going to crash here. It will be sleeping bag mayhem :) Gosh, I wonder how many emails I will get tomorrow on what a crappy son I have? Can't wait. He's SO excited that he will have so many little girls he can abuse and mistreat tonight. It's like Christmas all over again... but in a more dark-sided way. Perhaps someone should call the Girl Scouts headquarters and warn them of my Satanic music and porn that I make the kids watch??!?!?! PORN FOR EVERYONE!!! WOO-HOO!!!!! Hey, is there a Girl Scout badge for watching porn? Perhaps for practicing foul language? A 'Mouth of a Truck Driver' badge maybe? I'm going to make some up now. I'll pass the badges out with the 'Debbie does Dallas' DVD's as they leave in the morning. Yes... that's what I'll do! But on a serious side, I did stock up on every kind of junk food possible. Isn't that required at a sleep over? And I think we'll watch that new movie 'Aquamarine'.. about the mermaid? The child in me has been wanting to see that.
And no, Daya, we're not REALLY watching porn. So you need to cancel that flight. GOSH! You're just impossible :) I made those comments because of the email I got last week.. remember?
