2 to go


i hit alabama today! that leaves 2 states to go ... west virigina and north dakota. :-)

i put baby in a corner

okay, so i'm STILL in atlanta and am staying in the marriott downtown.

there has been A LOT of thumping (like furniture moving) upstairs ... directly above me. A LOT.

and it won't stop.

not sure how to handle as i've already called room 767, posing as the front desk, and asked them to keep it down.

that was a couple of hours ago.

if i call the front desk, will they put two and two together and bust me?

fey or palin? palin or fey?

poo - part 2

glad i'm not home. the housekeeper found more poo ... on our comforter. ew!

poo

last night was my last night before my big trip to the south ... it was about 10:45 pm and lola was in our bed playing with us ... trying to solict as much human contact before my suitcase and i left this morning. she does do this every night ... but last night she was a little more wild.

i rolled over to read my book and before long felt a dog snout rooting around under me ... she was crazed. i thought, "did i pee my pants and not notice?" i am getting old, after all. i told her to stop it, but she dug in deeper.

so i hopped out of bed, turned to look at lola and was shocked and appalled. there were POO streaks and grass in a 12" x 6" square WHERE I SLEEP.

this has never happened before. NEVER.

we were super happy to have to get up, handle the bed and clean off lola at almost 11 pm ... especially as i had to get up at 4:30 am to catch a plane. the poo must have been there for awhile as we had to scrub it out of the crevices between her pads. OMG. shockingly, i did not gag ... just laughed ... and then we all went to bed. poo-free.

i may never use a public washer & dryer again ... even in an emergency

i am very tramautized.

i've been in colorado for a couple of days ... since friday ... and headed to memphis today for a meeting tomorrow. i got here early ... so i figured i'd do a little laundry before dinner.
omg. when i transfered my wet clothes to the dryer ... i found that some BOY PANTIES AND A SOCK had meandered their way into MY clothes. i almost vomited. i wonder if super boy knows he's missing his stuff.
