Smells like middle-aged spirit.


There's something in the air, a mood change or something, hard to identify, so I am having a hard time putting my finger on it. I'd like to say it's "optimism" but I've kind of been not on speaking terms with that concept for the last 10 months, so I'm not for sure that's even what I'm smelling (sidebar: we do have a litter box in the house but I don't think that's what I smell). Optimism with a side of "happy" but let's not stick our necks out and super-sized just yet. I also sense "jinx" and the possibility of a "potential let down" so I'm going to leave you hanging with that. You'll be the first to know but until I am certain of this new mode for myself, mum's the word.

Leigh came over last night and we watched The Science of Sleep, and what can I say but "odd" and "highly interesting". The use of multiple languages made it hard to take the lazy/drunken/ignorant approach to viewing since it caused a false sense of security that I would be able to follow the plot while only half paying attention (the other half consisting of drinking copious amounts of red wine). And I must say Natalie Portman is a very lucky girl, indeed, since Gael Garcia Bernal has incredibly large hands in one part of the movie, and you know what they say about the "hand-size/ehhhemmm ratio" equation…….

So overall it was a good movie, two incredibly large thumbs up, and a special thank you shout out to Rufus for rendering it unnecessary for me to have to pre-rinse the pate bowl before loading it in the dishwasher. Mommy's Little Angel is always willing to help out at clean up time, bless his heart. Sometimes pre-maturely as I wasn't really finished with it yet, but your good intentions are taken into consideration, Booboo.

Oh, and wish me luck and fingers crossed on the thing I must not yet speak of.

Just taking a break from shopping for gloves at the "El Grande Glove Store" to drop you a line...using my custom made oversized keyboard of course.

Good luck with that thing you're not really talking about.

Anyone would be lucky to have two penis'! I'd pay lots of money to see that!

Good luck with your vagueness!

Can we talk about it yet? Can we? Can we, huh?

Unfortunately not yet. Hopefully by the end of the week. Rusty, keep everything crossed.
