August 2005

 1  This week looks comfortably slow.
 2  Penny was a real stinker this morning.
 3  So, yeah, I need to sit down and decide exactly how I want to organize all this stuff.
 4  So after Penny went to bed, I changed into some scummy clothes and went to work.
 5  Wow, this week kind of zipped right under the wire for me.
 8  But I think it's back to B.R.A.T. today. Alas.
 9  Oh, the agony and hardship, I know.
 10  A minimum of fifteen cake-and-ice cream-eating people.
 11  I think it's going to be a good day.
 12  HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PENNY!
 15  So I'll get the bitching done first, and then: pictures!
 16  My desk printer was momentarily befuddled with my crazy demands that it - get this - print something.
 17  My current story is chugging along nicely, too.
 18  So, to sum up: Life is good, except for the whole diet thing.
 19  We're a team, and all.
 22  But things kind of went downhill from there.
 23  Karen read the lastest installment of the story I'm writing the other night, and said, "Do your stories always have this much sex in them?"
 24  And that's only scratching the surface of items begging to be mocked!
 25  I have no fun and clever things to talk about today, I'm afraid.
 26  The weekend looms.
 29  All in all, I was amazed at how well Penny behaved, given that she'd had a short nap and was riding the sugar roller coaster.
 30  Did I mention yesterday that Penny's learned how to open doors?
 31  Tempus fugit and all that.
Pictures:

- Kids in the pool!
- Mmm, ice cream...
