Bobby pin safety

Doodle shoved this Bobby pin directly up my nose while I was talking to my friend on the phone. This is a public service announcement.

She's the one eye love...

Yesterday I was doing laundry. That's not the interesting part of this story for we all know laundry to be most uninteresting. I am pouring the crystal blue goodness of some generic tide into my laundry cup and I drop it. This is not that interesting either, but has great bearing on the outcome of this story. The cup drops from my hands and as if it is in slow motion, I watch it hit the ground. It lands quite flatly and up from the cup comes a great geyser of generic tide, like a fountain right into my open right eye. Did you know that when you get generic tide in your eye, you need to flush your eye for a full 10 to 15 minutes? This is what I had the pleasure of learning about yesterday, and would be the interesting part of this story for those of you following along. I flushed for as long as I could stand and my eye hurt all night. This morning I could not open it. It had been sealed shut with tears or whatever eyes seal themselves with. Ew.

The puppy has gone home. I don't think I will be jumping at the chance for another puppy any time soon. Two is plenty and mine are eccentric enough without another friend to add to the fun. I need a nap.

The sadness will eat your soul...

Hubbs and I were driving to get some food. We passed the stop sign and came to a little yellow cat just sitting in the road. We couldn't figure out why it was just sitting there staring. Then we look to where it was staring. Lying in the road was another little cat, A little Siamese looking cat, it couldn't move I wasn't even sure it was alive. The yellow cat looked so concerned and sad, I almost started to cry. I was going to jump out of the car and try to save the little cat in the road but hubs started to drive. On our way home we saw the police and a lady holding the cat in a towel. I hope it was OK.
It was kind of amazing to see the concern in the other cat's eyes. You don't think about animals having feelings. It was just sad.

So there, have a sad story to take with you. Sorry to be a downer.

So here is happy news. My favorite show ever is starting again tonight! YAY! Pushing Daisies! I am so excited.

Slobbery old man kisses...

We have a little old man in our small hamlet of a town who cannot hear and yells everything. Yesterday I was about to go into my school yard and I see him coming towards me. "Is that Petey?" I yell out, the old familiar high pitch laughing starts. He tells me has to go back for a shot at the health center. He tells me I am a beautiful woman and pats my cheek. He goes in for the kiss, I fake to the left, he kisses my cheek. That's not good enough for ol' Petey, oh no Petey goes in for the kill and plants an old man kiss right on my lips!
"Are you single or married?"
I say,
"Married!"
He asks,
"Single?"
I yell,
"MARRIED!"
"That's OK, I like married women better anyway. You are a beautiful woman."
Petey laughs and pats my cheek. I hear him talking as he walks down the street. I go into work and smile. At least I may have made his day a little brighter anyway.
