Wow, I hope everything is ok there! Hail can cause a lot of damage.

We haven't had rain or hail but last weeks Santa Anas had the tree up front blowing its' nuts/seeds all over. I could hear them 'attacking' my and my daughters cars!!! Pelting them mercilessly!!! Ugh!! And I couldn't put mine in the garage as I needed to use it.

Driving around WA on a pretty little quiet lane, we heard a big 'thump' on our roof. Scared the carp outta us. Went back later and it was just acorns.

NA, your doggie costume show sounds amazing! Is there a place on line to see pics?

The Harry Potter party sounds like a huge success.

I am bummed. I was intending on heading up next Sunday but have to work. Although today/tomorrow I might get fired. Who knows.

Today I was supposed to take my Escape in for a check up. Some strange issues {anyone else have an Escape with strange issues?} But my Boy is very sick and I am keeping my car for any emergencies.

Ah....since he is sleeping the first 'emergency' is going to meet my friend for coffee....

My dad's a funny guy.

For the most part, he's very conservative. Not politically, personality-wise. Avoids loud music, violent movies, foul language, etc. He's got a sense of humor, and a good one, but it consists mainly of clever puns and cornball one-liners. He's not much for crudity and insult.

But every once in a while, he just comes up with a freaking gem that has me laughing for days, espeically coming from his mouth.

On Saturday we went to dinner with my parents at Johnny Reb's, a marvelous southern bbq place by our home in Orange. My dad ordered the southern fried chicken.

"Dad, how's the chicken."

"Oh, it's really good. Mmm. And it tastes so southern, I think I'm starting to hate people."

Lopsided BS comment, if you ask me. Has anyone looked to see if Northerners are just as hateful?

NOOOOOOOOOO

He only decided to call out the Southerners here.- one sided cmment anyone?

Incredibly insulting to anyone's intelligence and designed to to send conspiracy theorists into high gear. Apalling!

I have an announcement to make:

Watching hockey requires attention. Paying attention to hockey = not paying attention to homework.

Therefore, hockey is not condusive to completing homework.

Nor does it taste like chicken.

Yes, but does it cause you to hate people? Never mind, stupid question.

It's nearly midnite and I am cleaning floors.

Everyone else is nestled snug in their beds, which is precisely why I am doing floors now- so they can't track their dirt and crap all over the damp floors. No wonder they all think we have a house-elf; they seldom actually see this kind of stuff getting done.

We're having a Halloween bash for the kiddo and her friends tomorrow- should be fun. They're at that weird age where they aren't sure if they want or should be trick-or-treating, so I solved the dilemma with a party and maybe the door-to-door extortion of candy from the neighbors. Of course, they'll all want to, but first they have to pretend they might be too cool.
