Catch Up

Dear Bloginistas,

Ok YHS has been out of touch for like 2 years due to the imprisonment of real life, but I think I'm back at least for a while. Let's see what has happened since my last communiqué? Hmm, not much, well ok something must have happened right?

Let's see (in no particular order):

I went to London (not Ontario)
I went to last years British F1 Grand Prix at Silverstone (BTW, also known as the most fun you can have with your clothes still on).
Numerous small people who claim to be Her Hotness's grand children now seem to be more numerous then when you last read my droll.
I've now become a hardcore Sox fan (as Boretrose is technically a far west suburb of Chitown (no really).
The armory has grown substantially as I await for the Barkster and Horseface (nice arms)to throw the whole thing in the toilet soon and at least, the approaching hordes (or Chinese) can be mowed down "Zombie style" (as always, I try to find a silver lining.)
We had a hellacious snowstorm this last (it’s still winter isn't it?) winter.

The Outback (still #1 with gay women btw) was a tank and only tried to kill us a fewish times

Luckily, through blind luck and YHS's uber driving skills (and Bell/Penny/Hans sitting in my lap) I/we didn’t hit much.

I walked (crawled/moaned/drooled) up Mt Timpanogos in Utah. Why? I have no idea (selective memory). Somehow I must have been watching one of those ... Actually I must have been insane. From now on if a 6 year old can't physically do it then I'm not (even trying) doing it. Period. Bite me Lance Armstrong.

I got DVR - sweet!

I spent X-mas in Utah. We went to Park City and saw a bunch of stuff we could buy if we sold our house

Her Hotness took a train (I flew)

She wanted something quant. I think the train's name was Thomas. It afforded her a rare chance in this day and age to sit for 40 hours with a bunch of captive loons like herself who think riding a train for 40 hours is also quant. Loons of a feather.....

For those who don't celebrate X-Mas "Happy Kwanzaa Pancake Breakfast" to you and yours.

Last week I got a speeding ticket I didn’t deserve. Seems the Milan police think my '96(woohoo) Ford Ranger can actually do 70mph. Ha! If it was falling over a cliff it could.

But you can't fight the man and maybe it’s just karma for all the other 123(and climbing) mph blasts up to MLI in the past (in the Suburu - fun fact - Ellen DeGeneras drives one)

I mistakenly planted/bought 200 raspberry plants last summer

How was I to know that there were 12 plants in a pack? So only about half lived. I guess it seems they need sunlight. Go figure.

More…(somebody stop me)

Seems that I now have our mechanic and his family as our co-dependents. This year we have blown like $3,000 on car repairs.

AND the Sburu and, in a sympathy vote, the ‘96 Ford Ranger both now need their AC fixed. Since Boretrose gets like a 110 F (1,213,214 C) in the summer with a like percentage of humidity, AC is a necessity.

I just got my new Blackberry as the old one after 4 years of faithful service finally croaked. The new one is a “Curve” and has a camera, so now I can be tempted to take all kinds of undercover (wink) “art” photos. Thank goodness that you no longer have to take your pix to Walgreens for development.

Other fun catchup stuff:

I now have a electronic pressure cooker. So instead of waiting 6 hours to ruin a dinner in a crockpot (so old fashioned), I can now do it in under 30 minutes. Now that is progress.

Let’s see what else is going on with YHS? Um, nothing more comes directly to mind.

As stated previously since I’m now at least not criminally insane anymore, I’ll be updating this (hopefully) more regularly. If you like what you are reading, please send money (folding preferably).

Strapped for Dosh,

YHS

Dear Bloginistas,

Pardon the slight delay. I was just release from the sanitarium. And they only allowed me crayons which I mostly just ate.

Anywho, here’s Her Hotness and the Bee Anthology for your viewing excitement:

PS. Since I'm taking the correct medication now that I’m out, I’ll be posting more(ish).
