I was back in college, squeaked into a class I'd been skipping for nearly 8 weeks, no clue and totally lost but hoping I'd get some direction before the final in 2 days. The teacher was the sheriff from Eureka, and after he dismissed the others early, held me back and asked what was going on. In my attempt to evade both the truth and actual lying, he mistakenly thought I hoped to be able to take the final early, so he sat me back down right then and there and handed it to me... I was so relieved to wake up. You have no idea what my brain would have put me through inventing a final above my own head.

I've made it past the dry cheerios, yay

My new chicken blog went live yesterday. I told you they're more popular than I am.

Also got a lot of feedburner issues resolved in between collapsing back into bed every hour. Did you guys know wordpress no longer supports feedburner? Yeah, might wanna look into that. I wound up pinging every single feed and having to either readjust feed details or reset the burners, and surprisingly had to reinstall my blogger code even though feedburner is a google product. So I'm guessing they updated the service, something changed, blah blah. Always something to suck up my time. But I liked it. I had post-puke brain, gave me something to latch onto and the hours just blurred by me. Probably knocked off my subs, sorry about that.

Guess I need to join the living again and do some laundry. Dreading the fridge. Went and bought all these neat veggies and suddenly couldn't prepare them, now I can't bear to even look at them. Not sure what I'm going to eat today, already pretty tired of cheerios. You know you're still puny when the thought of chocolate turns you green, so no hot chocolate. Heeeyyyy... just occurred to me we have burrito food around here. I could have been eating baby rice. Wonder how this tastes.

All righty then, looks like my brain is back on, time to pump up some jam and go wrap it around stuffs.

Thought I'd be able to work today, but I'm already dizzy looking at this. Big bad bug finally got me around 3 a.m. yesterday, and I'm still a limp noodle. I think I'm past the fever though, and I'm able to eat a little now, but I can tell I need to tip over back into bed.

Yesterday turned out surprisingly well for all the baditude I started off with. I think the early morning spider was a ~sign~. No, I'm NOT going to post that picture here, egads.

I have absolutely no Easter plans. We used to have big Easter fun when the girls were younger, but I've been on break for a few years now, and I figure I can get away with one more year off before I have to step up again. Don't get me wrong, I like Easter just fine, but this is my fave ever graphic I found years ago. Ok, I thought I had the *original* original of this version that had a very squashed wild rabbit skin actually smeared and dried up on the highway and the basket contents weren't so elaborated and looked more like a real hit, guess it's lost to interweb antiquity, but this newer version will make the same point.

Now I'm going to be obsessed with finding the old original. If I find it I'll post it. And I take that 'no plans' thing back, I'll be making my annual spring coconut cake for the big get together at Scott's mom's house, but other than that, no plans besides watching burrito go through her first Easter and never remember it again, lol.

My own burrito was brought by the Easter bunny many years ago.

In the meantime, the chicken stress is going outa control this week, and you know what means, I have to blog about it, and that first post link will come up automatically on the twitters and across my other medias when I publish it. I know from my stats that nearly 23% of you can't see this post I'm writing right now on your phones, but the chicken blog ~will have mobile viewing~. In the meantime, Xanga had awesome mobile viewing before the big server migration, and I'm pretty sure will again, so I'm not going to fret about a handful of people still trying to view my Pinky blog on a teeny tiny screen instead of watching the road or whatevs. If I can be patient through all this huge life disruption, you can too.

WO! O_O I did it!!! I've been trying to capture this awesome vid for two years. Charlie Sheen is my fave old guy. Click this to see the coolest thing he's ever done besides Men At Work.

Yeah yeah, time to GET TO WORK! >=l My life is a tomato winning salad, lol.

This day started out all wrong around 3:15 this morning, so I don't expect the rest of the day to be much better. The spider incident didn't help at all, and I just made my first block on facebook over an offensive comment I didn't care for. I shouldn't have to warn people about the lines I draw when I clearly don't behave that way myself. Can you tell I'm cranky?

I'm blaming the pollen for everything today. Wildly uninhibited tree sex all around me is doing icky things to my head. Someone asked me once if I'd ever been part of an orgy, and I said, "Dude, I live in the WOODS. Biggest ejaculations on the planet."

So I'm an awful person today, and I don't give a rip about anyone else.

I'm hoping feeling mildly gut punched is about all the further I go with this bug. Poor Scott is still suffering and recovering, not sure how he's dragging through work every day. I get weird when I get germs. When I'm not a big baby, I morph through pan dimensional idea explosions that I call going plaid. I'm normally a paisley person.

I'm not a linear person, and I often work on several things at the same time, which alleviates boredom and prevents writer's block. Switching tracks is something I do really well in my head, but not something that translates well to 'real life'. I've got 15+ titles in the queue, one in particular is getting its own blog back after a bumpy ride. I'll be honest, my chickens were more popular than I ever was.

Just over two weeks till we go on vacation. I'm trying to synch everything, not pick up too many groceries, sorting through the laundry and packing so all the wrong clothes won't need to be washed at the last minute, getting a box of stuff started to take to the kids, setting the bills out to mail before we go. The chickens are a problem. They've done fine in the past with an extra waterer and the feed stocked up, but the winter was long and T'Pol is taking it out on Amy, and even with extra time out of the pen and the usual quick fixes of extra protein snacks like raw burger and cat food to support their egg production spiking back up, it's staying pretty ugly. I really don't want to come home to a dead chicken and T'Pol going cannibal on me.

But right now I've got to run into town and pick up a few things because I've slacked off real bad and our fridge is bare. I got away with it during Scott's bug, but I need to feed that boy up before we go. Can't be running out of coffee, either, that would suck mightily. After I get home, TIME TO WORK!!! >=l Many things to accomplish today.
