Bubblegum Diaries: It's Wednesday, so...

It's Wednesday, so...

Yes, I feel much better today. The hormones are settling down, the wine last night was lovely, it's warm and gorgeous outside and... um... I had a really nice phonecall from Vegas last night.

Moi: Sorry I missed your call, I was walking home... You know I always leave the office around that time and am deaf with my iPod.
Vegas: Well, maybe tomorrow I'll leave the office at that time too.
Moi: What office?
Vegas: Ours :-)

I think I whooped. Seriously. He was supposed to have customer meetings until Thursday evening but the person organizing things messed up, so he's not hanging around sticky Florida for nothing, he's got fish to fry in Montreal. Today. Yey!

Me, I'm not frying fish but I sure am catching mice with those traps.

Two now, and I won't be surprised to find more soon.

DIE! BASTARDS! DIE!

OK I felt terrible picking up those traps with tiny lifeless bodies stuck inside (their long tails are super icky though), everything's in a plastic ziploc baggie in the dog's food freezer and I can't wait to show my landlady the evidence.

It's not funny anymore.

It's a serious vermin infestation.

So serious, in fact, that I had nightmares about it last night - hundreds of those little bastards running loose in my home, squeaking and shitting and attacking me! And then I scooped up a tiny little grey puppy in the mouse litter, it was half starved and shaking and I wrapped it in a blanket and held it near my chest to warm it up, "I can't keep a 3rd dog!" ran through my mind but then I must have been a buddhist or something because I knew I was responsible for that life from now on.

I gotta lay off the wine.

Frank said...: Traps are for sissies. We always just used to send my brother downstairs with a hammer to go after them. Maybe that's why he turned out like he did...; September 17, 2008 1:40 PM
Dolce said...: Are you kidding me? If that was my place I'd be sleeping the streets before sleeping in a house with mice.

You make me proud!; September 17, 2008 2:15 PM
Technodoll said...: Girl1218, when you live with two creature-killing dogs you kinda get used to things :-(

Myself, I wasn't drinking water last night! LOL! hmm... maybe you weren't either... *grin*

Daring, talking mice are something else though! ha ha and gravity, schamvity. You're a hottie, deal with it.

PrincessB, WHAT?! OMG! you NEED to move out! like, now! that's horrendous!

Prin, thanks! and if I had rats in my place I'd have gotten myself a shotgun a long time ago. *shudder*

Curly said...: I couldn't handle the traps. I'd move out until The Man got the rodents out. Squirrels, rats, mice, gerbils, hamsters, even bats. YUCK.; September 17, 2008 2:37 PM

Toughgirl, I just like to know I can do the icky things in case of emergency. Independance and all! hah.; September 17, 2008 8:56 PM

Property is theft. Nobody “owns” anything. When you die, it all stays here.

The planet is fine. The people are fucked.

The real reason that we can’t have the Ten Commandments in a courthouse: You cannot post “Thou shalt not steal,” “Thou shalt not commit adultery,” and “Thou shalt not lie” in a building full of lawyers, judges, and politicians. It creates a hostile work environment.

The only good thing ever to come out of religion was the music.
“When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?” This title offends all three major religions, and even vegetarians!

And now, in the interest of equal time, here is a message from the National Institute of Pancakes: It reads, and I quote, “Fuck waffles.”

Atheism is a non-prophet organization.

Cloud nine gets all the publicity, but cloud eight actually is cheaper, less crowded, and has a better view.

I’m always relieved when someone is delivering a eulogy and I realize I’m listening to it.

Just think, right now as you read this, some guy somewhere is gettin’ ready to hang himself.

If all our national holidays were observed on Wednesdays, we could wind up with nine-day weekends.

Most people with low self-esteem have earned it.

Most people work just hard enough not to get fired and get paid just enough money not to quit.

“No comment” is a comment.

You can’t argue with a good blowjob.

So far, this is the oldest I’ve been.

worst pickup lines

Can I buy you a drink, or do you just want the money?

I may not be the best looking guy here, but I'm the only one talking to you.

I'd like to screw your brains out, but it appears that someone beat me to it.

If you were a new hamburger at McDonald's, you would be McGorgeous.

I wish you were a Pony Carousel outside Walmart, so I could ride you all day long for a quarter.

Excuse me, do you have your phone number, I've seem to have lost mine.

I can't find my puppy, can you help me find him? I think he went into this cheap motel room.

The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

OK, so what's the speed of dark?

Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.

Shin: a device for finding furniture in the dark.

Many people quit looking for work when they find a job.

Join the Army, meet interesting people, kill them.

If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends?

Boycott shampoo! Demand the REAL poo!

Who is General Failure and why is he reading my hard disk?

What happens if you get scared half to death twice?

I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out.

I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder.

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

For every action, there is an equal and opposite criticism.

The colder the X-ray table, the more of your body is required to be on it.

The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

Monday is an awful way to spend 1/7th of your life.

A fool and his money are soon partying.

Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow.

not the sharpest bulb in the closet?

A few peas short of a casserole.

An experiment in Artificial Stupidity.

An intellect rivalled only by garden tools.

As much use as a hedgehog in a condom factory.

As much use as a one-legged man at an ass-kicking contest.

As useful as a wooden frying pan.

As useful as tits on a bull.

Dumb as a stump.

He's got a mind like a steel sieve.

His cheese has slipped off his cracker.

His porch light ain't on.

If brains were dynamite, he wouldn't have enough to blow his nose.

Like a pair of children’s scissors, bright and colorful, but not too sharp.

Million dollar body and a 2 dollar engine.

Proof that evolution CAN go in reverse.
