I hate it when...

I hate it when I forget my ChapStick! Today I completely forgot to pocket my ChapStick. I couldn't stop thinking that I'd forgotten something I use everyday. And thinking that made me think of how dry my lips were getting making me annoyed I'd forgotten my ChapStick.

Yes, I am an addict.

Belly Troubles

One of my dogs was sick recently so I took her to the vet. This is what they found:

I was shocked. This is a dog that is quite old, has no teeth, is blind and death. How in the world did she manage this? And what is the hell are they?

At first I thought they were those plastic pins that hold the paper and cardboard in place in men's shirts and maybe she swallowed them sometime during xmas. But around 2 weeks later, she had another vet visit and the pins haven't moved. So after thinking about her history, these pins could actually have been there ever since I've had her. See, she's a rescue and in her previous house, she used to live and sleep around mechanic equipment and stuff. It's very possible she swallowed them there and they've just intergrated into her intestine after all these years. She doesn't seem to be in any pain from them and she goes to the bathroom just fine.

So weird!


Neglect

Yes, I have been neglectful. It's been almost a year since I wrote anything on this blog.

Happy 2011 everyone!

So how has the year been so far? The first 23 days of the year have been good. We had another earthquake the other day. I didn't feel anything...I was outside on my way to lunch when it happened. I can say that I felt the one back in Decemeber before Christmas. THAT was interesting! I was sitting at my desk when I heard a low rumble. Then my chair started to shake. My thought was, "Why is my chair shaking? Is there a truck passing by?" Of course that would make no sense because I live in a gated community. Almost instantly everything shook violently. It was like the house was bitch slapped and everything rattled. I stood up and walked to my doorway, but just as fast as it came, it was over.

My mother asked "¿QuĂ© fue eso?"
Really mother? :)
So I said, "Un temblor..." and laughed.

Anyway, I can't promise I'll write more often this year. Between work and life (and tv shows of course, ehem, Bravo), blogging has fallen down the priority list. We'll see.
