To this webpage, I mean. I get on MyBlogLog every now and then to stalk our stalkers. Yesterday’s searches (some of which are disturbing):
- two year old crying for an hour and a half (we have one of those)
- evaporation lines (sure, we’ll talk about these)
- pictures of old horrible houses (we have one of these, though not technically ‘old’)
- january 2006 stale (we probably have some of this…but we haven’t found it yet!)
- enchilada clip art (interesting…)
And most disturbing of all:
- po_op hole pics (I hope to god we don’t have any of these!)
I hope our pagerank goes up in any case… and that all of you out there searching for something find it. Except for the last one. That’s just gross.

Our cats have truly evolved into natural born killers. Every morning I leave for work, I cringe as I open the screen door dreading what beast I may find in the driveway.
This morning it was a tiny baby bat. It reminded me of the bat scare we had a year ago, when I took the decomposing bat to the Health Department to test it for rabies. The bat was practically mush, so they couldn’t test it for anything. I was afraid of everyone in the house getting rabies, but the vet said it was unlikely. So, this year, I just scooped it up with a plastic bag and threw it in the trash.
Next to Thursday’s dead mouse. Thursday night when I was letting Bailey back in, I noticed that she skulked quickly into the mudroom. I saw that she had a dead mouse in her mouth, so I screamed until she dropped it, kicked her back outside, yelled at Grammy to get back into the house so I could properly contain the dead mouse. Grocery bag, into trash.
At least these tiny rodents, winged or not, are more easily contained. It’s the rabbits that are a problem. The innards strewn across the driveway, and then the search for the remainder of the carcass are the more daunting (and disgusting) tasks. It’s always interesting to see which bits don’t get eaten…
When will winter come?

Not just a regular job…but a breast job? What about a nose job?
Of course, our favorite Plastic Surgeon, Manuel F. Chiuten, MD (Margot’s dad) is our Plastic Surgeon on choice. But there’s another way to find out about breast augmentation!
Rodeo Drive Breast Augmentation in Beverly Hills, California specializes in all types of plastic surgery. Their website is filled with information on the different types of Plastic Surgery out there. They also show before and after pictures of some of their clients. One thing I found to be helpful is that they offer information on “Most Frequently Asked Questions”.
Rodeo Drive Breast Augmentation offers surgery in a boutique setting right on Rodeo Drive! It’s in the heart of Beverly Hills and after your done with your surgery you can walk out the door, get your hair done, and buy a new wardrobe to match your new look!
I can appreciate the fact that it’s not in an institutional setting and that you feel like you’re in a luxary salon. It takes the pressure out of having surgery. The more comfortable and confident you are during the procedure - the better it is going to turn out! Plus, you can wake up knowing that the best doctor’s have worked on your beauty.

I’m a sucker for stealing cheap pens! Just the other day I tried to sneak out a nice pharmaceutical pen from the doctor’s office. I got as far as the door when the receptionist said “Oh, I think you took the pen.” “Oh, yes!” I replied.
Damn. Busted.
Now, I can buy cheap pens at PensRUs.com. I’m sure they won’t be as good as the FREE pens that I’m able to pick up at doctor’s offices…but they’re probably the next best thing.
Plus, I don’t have to worry about becoming a kleptomaniac.

why I’m awake! It’s 4:41am and I woke up to go to the bathroom and I can’t seem to go back to bed. This cold is driving me nuts and I can’t go to sleep because my nose keeps running. Not to mention, Graem’s diaper leaked everywhere in bed and I feel like I’m covered in pee.
Calgon, take me away!
