I log an official complaint........

When we were having all the rain I knew this would happen. Last night I fell asleep with the patio door open. Tonight, the A.C. may be on. We spend most of our time in the family room, the warmest in the house. The thermostat is in the hallway, the coolest place in the house. I don't like to use the air until the hall is 78 which is 84 in the family room. I have ugly legs but am wearing shorts and barefoot today, my summer has arrived.

I'm the last person that should be criticising the written and spoken word. But, I don't think the sentence should read, "It was mutual between Hef and I." It should read, "It was mutual between Hef and me." Which ever way, it's nice to know they remain, "good friends." Once they discussed the merits of sugarless gum they exhausted any and all future conversations.

Crystal Harris is quoted saying when she broke the word to Hef on not making good on the whole "to death us do part" thing he "understood." My goodness, he's 85.....did she think he was too young? She didn't want to hang in there? It was too long to wait for his money?

Did you know Maury Povich still does the "you slept with my best friends sister-in-law thing? Wanda, would you please, please, change the TV station before you leave for work. Today I tuned in to lie detector results for "did you cheat and lie or just cheat?"

I had to go to my monthly "get the medicine" doctor appointment today. I'll get back to this in a minute.

I'm sitting at the table in the warmest room in the house trying to compose this blog entry. I can hear a bass......boom.....boom.....boom.....boom through the windows, double pane insulated, and the walls. This is pretty invasive and distracting. The house kitty corner from us has a truck parked in front of it. No one is in the vehicle, the windows are down, the stereo is on, loud. What the Hell, I guess this is an inexpensive alarm system? When you hear the music fade away you know the vehicle is gone.

At five this morning I took my meds, my appointment was at nine. Before leaving I couldn't find the pill box. I looked on the tables, in the kitchen cabinets, even in the fridge. I was on the phone calling Wanda (she always knows where stuff is) when I opened the microwave and there it was. I had no idea when or why I put it there. I was probably sleep walking again. Unlike Luna Lovegood, I don't wear shoes to bed. Maybe I should start?

On the way home from the doc I had a mother wild turkey and three little wild turkeys cross my path. I don't know if that is considered good, or bad, luck? A few years ago Wanda and I stopped for an adult bird that attacked the car. This foursome just wanted to get across the road, I wonder why?

I'm going to put a fruit salad together for dinner tonight. I picked up a few things at Safeway and told one of the managers about the undercharge on the yogurt the other day. I was told to "forget it" which was nice of them. I just took a better look at the receipt from today. Not only was ONE apple $1.03 (which is probably how they make up for the yogurt) but I was charged for it, twice.

That's two receipts in two days shopping, both with errors. They let me slide on the yogurt, should I tell them about the apple? Should I expect a refund?

Bill Cosby used to do this joke about room service. He would say, "I was reading the room service menu in my room last night." "It read, One egg, any style, three dollars." "For three dollars that egg better have so much style it comes to me singing and dancing."

The salad tonight will have: strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, cherries, banana, peaches, apple, and cantaloupe. I don't think I'll sing since I have a terrible voice but I will tap dance. A twenty buck fruit salad should have more than a little style.
