What the hell possessed me to get up at 5 in the morning today is totally beyond me. I mean, I know its Monday and that 5 is the usual time I get up during the week, but I didn’t have to get up this morning. It’s our very first February holiday and I could’ve slept in at least until 6.
And why did I wake wondering where the Boy Dog was? I remember having a dream that it was cold and he wouldn’t come in the house (two things that are actually happening – it’s freakin cold and he never wants to come when I call him) but why did I get a sense of panic when I opened the bedroom door and only heard the Girl Dog’s nails clicking their way down the hall to greet me with a tail that swings back and forth so hard it could put dents in the drywall. Was it that damn psychic thing I got going on again? Was he really outside? OMG!
A quick check of the house, including his “time out” kennel (no joke, when you say “time out” he goes into the kennel and lays down until he feels better) I tear downstairs. Nope, not sleeping on the couch or chair, where the hell is he? I didn’t lock him in the computer room last night, did I? Nope, but there’s the computer (I’ll be seeing you soon!). I opened #1Son’s door and out he comes. Tail just a waggin’, ears down, silly little smirk on his face that says “you do love me, you saved me, thank you thank you thank you”.
#1Son was the last one to bed last night. Man I hate that. The fact that your kids have enough energy to stay up later than you…it’s taking some getting used to. Mostly because I’m never sure what I’ll be waking up to in the morning. Food left in the fridge? Dishes in the living room? Oven on? The two of them seem to think that it’s a free for all when SG and I retire for the night. Oh, and the late night showers…excuse me? You’re going to bed and you’ll be showering in the morning…wtf???
Anyway, been on this thing since then. Drank a 1 litre jug of Orange Pineapple Juice instead of my usual two cups of tea. Did a little smoking. And once again couldn’t get the news and information radio station to stream…This seems to be an ongoing issue with this computer (or maybe it’s the dial up connection?). I did, however, manage to find several more blogs that are very entertaining and have expanded by bookmarks by too many. Given that my usual blog reading takes place on the weekends, I’ll probably just continue with the 5 am wake up seven days a week.
Enjoy Louis Riel Day everyone. It’s nice to get paid today, while not working!
