Swimmers And Sinkers

I was going to get all deep and blog about last week. I am now repressing and stuffing all of last week. I was up till 5:00 am over last week. The whole debacle was not one of my finer moments. And I've had a slew of unproud moments. Talk about showing your ass. Literally. M' kay? Some of us swimmers fight their way upstream as a goal in life.

I Think You Are Crazy. Crazy Like Me. Probably.

Can You See The Beauty Of Your Chaos?

Drama. Major Drama. I've been absent and was stripped of all my wordily goods, all gadgets and communication vessels included. Honey came home last Monday morning to find me collapsed on the bathroom floor. Nobody really knows the why and the how, though theories abound. I sniffled and bawled at the ones that were the furthest from the truth. I couldn't speak, my tongue had swollen up making me incoherent, not that my brain had any other control. I was complete and utter mess. I was confused, scared, weak, and afraid that my whole life made out of a deck cards with 51 cards was crumbling. The life I've had to make from scratch. Gone. And I couldn't even yell...

Mr & Mrs Berry (Berry Good Times)

I just logged into Flickr and found that my niece had FINALLY uploaded wedding pics. Ok, I can't really give her a hard time , memory cards are so cheap I just keep buying new ones, then I date them and put them in a box..


The good time coed- bachelor/ bachelorette party!!! Go to the November 2007 posts for the crazy ass party pictures. Honey is in the green, our niece (not the one getting married) is the blonde, the blonde guy is her dad, who would be my BIL 'cept for a tiny divorce thing... And the handsome black dude is an extended family member without blood ties. Warning Honey should not be allowed to play with him. But we let it happen anyway knowing something is going to end up in the family archive....

The ocean front venue, it was freezing. The Wedding was in November....

Honey and I can behave. Seriously. Or maybe it was because I got out of the Hospital 2 days before the Wedding. That us in the second row for family, we found out later we were suppose to be in the front row..oopsie. I'm the one in dark glasses , Honey is the bald guy.
This is when things started to get crazy and I was ready to faint so we left it to the younger kids, like my new nephew (my age) and niece (who is 4 or so years younger than me) . I also love that the groom is bald like my Honey.

I love this picture of the bride, she looks ready to well..you know the stuff that comes after you get married.

The end.

We Just Watched Munich.

We call each other "Honey", I call him Honey and he calls me Honey, except when we are talking to each other through the animals then it's Mommy and Daddy.

What's that you said Zeus? You say that Daddy is being an asshole? You really shouldn't call Daddy an asshole, it's not nice.

Come here Fletch, Mommy won't give you some of her ice cream? It's ok I love you and you can have some of my ice cream.

Look Honey! Look how Fletch takes popcorn out of the bowl! He eats like a people!

Fletch, I don't care if you eat popcorn just don't talk during the movie, got it buddy? Now tell daddy he should shut the hell up, I'm trying to follow this light hearted gem of a movie.

*sigh*

BONKED! In The Afternoon!

Zeus, my Doberman just gave me a concussion. It was a freak accident during the feeding frenzy. I mean dinner time. Honey was in charge for today, Zeus was expecting me to dole out the rations, he had already bonked his head on a 12 pack of soda I just brought in from the store. I sat on the couch to stay out of the fray, and he leaped onto and around and well skull on skull bonk.

I am hearby declaring myself not responsible for anything I say or do for 72 hours.

The picture is of one of the Delta Launchs here on the Cape. It was very similar to what I saw after Zeus bonked me.

Look Ma! No Hands!

Two Anniversarys in one Month. My blog , which I started as a Wedding Blog for family. So much for that idea, the blog took on a life of it's own. Two years strong on both, wouldn't change a day or anything for that matter.

We Have a Winner!

Steph was correct in guessing a bridge! I've thought of driving off a bridge kinda Thelma and Louise style, and I scraped a car on the side of a bridge but I've never actually HIT a bridge.

The police car. Yup. Thought I was hitting the brakes, but it was the gas. No damage done and no witnesses. I was mortified, and sat cowering in my cubicle all day waiting for the cops to come in and arrest me.

The gas pump. Yes. Can you say KA-BOOM! It's like a small mushroom cloud, they have since changed the design of gas pumps. I was 15, I never wanted to drive again. My mother made me. Sue her for my shitty driving (Kidding Mom! Cyd, not a word about that last statement)

Several parked cars. Seriously, who hasn't? One in particular was a sewage maintenance truck, which happened this week prompting my questions. The fuckers were hogging the road and had nobody flagging traffic. No tickets issued.

The concrete utility pole? I fought the pole and the pole won. Thanksgiving Day 1995, the police offered to drive me to the dinner I was invited to. My family were all over the place that year, none of us together.

Which of these things have I not hit??

A) A Police Car.

B) A Gas Pump

C) A Conrete Utility Pole

D) A Bridge

E) Several PARKED cars

F) Our Garage Door

If It Weren't For The Animals

Our office would look just like two cubicles. Fletch Beagle being the oldest has is his OWN cubicle in the closet, all pimped out , and when he wants a change (or wants more peace, he goes into his "new addition", the part of the closet that is pretty unreachable since the doors aren't made to open that way. Poor baby we had him on valium for awhile. He tries to skirt around the other two and seriuosly, I think he may he may be rooting for the cat, since she doesn't chase him around.

Wow it's Thursday!

Usually when I don't post it's because I was sick, I was in the hospital all this morning and part of the afternoon. It was nice of mom to come hang out with me until they jacked me up on Morphine and Phenergren. I slept maybe an hour all last night. After a few bags of fluids and the above shots I was feeling better. July 31 is my date for the laproscopy. And if that doesn't do the trick, I will have no other options beside pain management. So I'm a bit loopy and very tired and with that, you now know where I am. Basically wandering around the house and wondering if Honey is going to take my keys away since they gave me some heavy duty drugs. Wish me luck and I promise not to drive if I have taken the drugs..

Houston We Have A Problem

Note all the tobacco products. Cigars to dainty flavored ciggarettes. And if you look to the left of the humidor you will see my box of Nicorette to help my quit smoking. It hasn't worked. The box to the left is the prescripton Chantix, also to help quit smoking. Um yeah, that didn't work.

It's About Damn Time!

Finally a Rock Climbing wall that fits into my decor, I thought I was going to have to buy boulder and cliff shaped furniture.

Bibbety Bobbity Blog-Versary!

It's my party. Ok, there are no real parties, just virtual well wishing and some great appreciation shown by my faithful few tried and true. And I'll leave this at that . BUT! I do have some good blogging topics, I've been toying around with in my head, but they don't seem to be able to make the hop and the skip onto the screen. Okay, so at this very moment I can only remember one. Damn my short term memory. I can however tell you in vivid detail stuff from when I was five. I think my brain shut down when it began trying to wrap it's grabby fingers around algebra. FAIL.

xoxo,

TTQ

And yes I watching old DVR'd Gossip Girls Episodes last night, just seeing if I missed any good music..

yeah well

Beware

Honey woke me up, he obviously didn't see this sign:

As punishment until he dies, I am ordering this chair made of stuffed alligators, why because alligators scare the shit out of him, even fake ones.

A Polyglot of Fashion?

I'm pretty sure I am using polyglot incorrectly, but hey the stylists are using her just plain wrong for thier own twisted ideas. Then again she could have said "Oh, Hell No" Without further ado, I bring you the "Cinderella Cindy Lou Who, also known as an excellant dress for breast feeding without the hidden Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction protype for a toliet paper roll decorator (or what ever those things people knit to put on toliet paper rolls.

The second one I have pretty much have the same to say "cindy Lou Who meets Mary Poppins. Now where is my fucking umbrella? And I have to wear these oven mitts so I can't pull out my own hair or otherwise harm myself. Trust me, you don't want oven gloves on you hands other than for cooking, but I digress.

Now to prove I hate the game not the player, here she is dressed nicely on the arm of her husband, albeit a bit too tan for my taste

Bad Bad Days ( A Rant)

I've been back in the hospital (isn't weird that British people say in hospital?). Again they sent me home with more pain meds and a ton of follow ups to do. I didn't even ask for my story, song or joke. I've been begging for help and relief. In tears. I've probably have had six meltdowns since Monday. I now have a migraine on top of it. Yesterday my keys were in jeopardy of being confiscated by Honey. Today I had another Dr's appt. Again I had a meltdown, I feel like a broken record. Nobody can give me any answers because they have never had a case like mine before. They are however going to do the exploratory surgery out patient but under General Anthesia so that's good and bad, my blood pressure is so low, I can" bottom out" as they say.. I'm freaking out because I know this is hard on Honey and he has been missing so much work to look after me, he has the vacation and sick time, it's just that he gets behind when he has to cancel his appointments with clients. So I worry his boss is going to chew him out.

Things right now are unbearable and I'm losing my "trooper" face. 90 degrees ou and I'm wearing long sleeve shirts to cover track marks, they blew 4 veins again. I look like a freaking zombie heroine addict only not that skinny.

I'm tempted to give up and say the hell with medicine and dr's.

Brangelina Buy A 60 Mill French Estate

It took me awhile to actually read why the picture was in the news, I couldn't stop staring at her boobs. That rack makes the babybump seem graceful and private. As for Angelina caring about a 35 bedroom house with all the bells and whistles, she's too busy looking at her boobs. If I had boobs like that I would stare at them all day too. 6 more years and I'm getting mine jacked up like hers. I'm going hit 40 with a bang.

Does It Work For YOU?

Can you see the video below? The one in the previous post? Sand Hill Crane Family?

Baby Crane!!!

Sand Hill Crane Family from I am TTQ on Vimeo.

We finally got our video of the babys. They have been all over but this time we had the Flip and new batteries. We went alligator hunting later, we found a swarm of turtles that dived down in the water when we tried to sneak up on them. I thought it was a sweet gesture of Honey since he is scared shitless of alligators and sometimes well, I get as close as I can. I used to be an alligator wrestler. Bet you didn't know that did you. *wink* I have almosted touched a HUGE one, that I thought was concrete because it was on a paved entrance to Shark Valley down by the Keys. Turns out he wasn't fake, scared the shit out of me when he snapped his mouth shut. We were biking the trail, I must have been a mile away from him after he did that. Baby gators are cute and not too scaly too be gross, I'm not afraid to hold them, which I have.. just got watch out for the mama's.

Still Got My Game On

Tell me a story, sing me a song, tell me a joke. Whenever I have to go in the hospital those are the three things I ask for. I don't care if your a family member , a nurse, or a doctor, I'm going to ask you. You don't know a story? Then sing me a song. Can't sing? Then tell me a joke. And since I've been feeling pretty shitty for about two weeks, I need a story, or a song, or a joke. And I need to be distracted, something else to think about. Or laugh at.

So I am asking you all to write me a story (you don't have to make it up), sing me a song (which you don't actually have to sing, but if you could and you put it on youtube, you get bonus points)*** You can post a link to your most favorite song and that counts as a entry***** No story, no song..how about a joke? A link to the funniest thing you found on the internet today?

The winner will get a free goody box filled with fun stuff. For a preview go see Andie's post on Sweet.Southern.Spirited or on Kim's Blog It's a Maze and Aaaand Maraca . It will also mark my two year blogoversary.

Didn't We All

Priscilla Ahn - Dream

I first heard the song on Grey's Anatomy's Season Finale from May 21,2008. It hit something in me so I thought I's blog it.

Babysteps

I ventured out again today. We needed a trip to the store and Honey couldn't hack it anymore. So I went. I hope the lucky man knows just how lucky he is.

Don't Just Don't (speak to me)

I left the house today (only to prove some kind of point). It had been since last Monday when we went to the Doctor. Yesterday, Honey felt the need to ponder the thought that my feet haven't even walked across the lawn. Isn't that odd, he says? Not really. Not really at all. Let me know when It's been a month. Oh and oops! Did you know today was Tuesday not Monday. I just now figured that out.

Day 3 at home

I've been grounded and it sucks. I threw my back out on Sunday in the fray of getting ready for mom. I did it pretty good this time. By Monday morning I was worse off, Honey called in to work and got me to the DR where he tested my range of motion and the extent of my injuries. I screamed like a woman having a baby three times before I could clamp my mouth shut. I must have sounded like a woman having a baby. So now I'm jacked up on muscle relaxants and vicodin. Honey says I have to stay in bed on the heating pad. No driving, which I agree. But tomorrow, I may have to break out with the aid of a friend before I get really cranky. If I can get up and straight I can walk ok, though my knee tends to buckle. Sciatica. Same with sitting, if I manage to get down, I'm okay till I have to move. The only fun part? I have a silver bell to ring when I need something.

Before Dinner Fun

Can you find Babyfred (my kitty kitty)? She is in the top picture and in the bottom picture

Mom Is Coming Over!

I always freak when mom comes to dinner, it's like I want to prove I'm a responsible adult who can have people over for a proper dinner. The shopping is done, the presents are wrapped. The food is all here waiting to be cooked tomorrow. And of course the cake bought.

Now I'm on a cleaning frenzy and I'm dead tired, I was sick most of last night so my sleep was interrupted by frequent visits to the bathroom. Speaking of which I have to go make sparkle. I'm going to go put roomba down in the living room while I do it. My floors are in desperate need of mopping. I'm thinking of getting somebody to come in and clean twice a month. The trouble with that? The animals... I't's probably going to be hard to find someone who can work around them..

Juno finally arrived from Netflix, I finally returned the three I had here and now I can get new ones. The last three could have been her three months or so and I never did watch them....

My Care Package

I finally had a chance to dig through my camera bag for my backup memory card that had roomon it to take pictures of the yummy stuff that Andie at Sweet. Southern.Spirited sent to me.

We have:

Spicy kettle cooked Zappa "Crawtaters" aka potato chips

Authentic Camellia Red Beans from Louisiana with recipe on the back. Honey loves to make beans . So he is in charge of that.

A Hubig's Lemon Pie. I'm dying to dig into that, I just have to make it till Sunday...

Praline Coffee from Community Coffee

And Tony Chachere's Original Creole Seasoning which has: Salt, red pepper and other spices, garlic. Hint: It's the other (secret) spices that makes it special!

Where Am I And What Was I Doing???

My new DL's picture. Isn't it pretty? Mischa Barton's arrest photo. I actually don't look stoned in my new one. But I felt just like she looks here.

EGADS!! I had to go into the garage to turn on the irrigation per Honey's request. I think I turned the right zone on and for the right amount of time. The garage and a seperate workshop are not part of the mainhouse, different structures adjoined by our screened in patio. I don't like that building everything is covered in dust and I'm pretty sure that some animals live in the rafters.

I'm doing a full detox on my digestive organs. We ate entirely too much sodium and fat in Tampa. I have to be ready for Mother's Day to do it all over again. So full vegetarian diet until them. Mostly detox tea, smoothies, fruit and veggies. And almost no rice, flour or wheat. Amazing how well my other medications work when I'm eating the right stuff. I woke up twice last night sweating out toxins. The a/c is set on like 73 so it wasn't like it was hot in the house. My head hurts but that's part of the detox, sometimes you get flu like symptoms.

I lost my Driver's Licsence on Monday (I think) so I popped in to get a new one. Right, like you can just pop in or out of the DMV. In my dreams. Honey swears he took the cash for the new a/c unit out of the bank envelope, I swear he put the whole envelope in his pocket. So it's probably somewhere, but I'm not going to drive myself crazy looking for it. It's not worth slipping into a super manic mode. So I got a new one with a picture that I don't look stoned in, but I had no make-up on. I thought they would just hit reprint.. I finally registered to vote in this county as well and got an State ID card too. I'll use that and my passport when I travel out of the country unless of course we take a trip that we rent a car in.

I am going to go make more tea. The sleepy kind. Pub lix calls their's Lullaby Tea. Lemongrass and berries plus Chamomile and Valerian

Ze Brain Is Pan Fried

My brain is fried. Too many small things that need attention, rapid fire. Tomorrow is MY day. I have no plans , appointments or promises to keep. I'm not leaving the house unless it's on fire. I may even watch Jerry Springer. Seriously, I need a pick me up. I can't even look in the mirror today. I did get a good surprise earlier Andie's box came! Yay! So much yummy stuff!! I want to take pictures and show you guys how nicely she packed the "care" package prize. Check back tomorrow for pics! And thanks again Andie! Honey thanks you too!

S-L-O-W

My turtle moves faster than trying to upload footage from the Clapton Concert Saturday night. Ok so 25 mins of one try was user error. But still.. No wonder I've have yet master editing, if I get it up on youtube, I let it ride. Why did I have to bring TWO cameras??

Oh and our a/c wasn't working when we got home it was blowing warm muggy florida air through the vents. Luckily it rained most of the night and cooled off and we turned the unit off and switched all the ceiling fans on high. The fans are no officially clean while our furniture is covered with whatever was on the blades.

I was bitching to my mom on IM and she said well there goes your govt refund and like a jackass I said cruise money is now a/c money. Yikes! The cruise this year is for her 70th birthday. She waited a minute then typed "I knew this (the cruise) would never happen".... Ouch. Honey and I talked after his nap and came up with a new game plan. So when I meet up with her today, hopefully I can convince her not to worry.

To Start Press Any Key

The first 365 picture of Andie's new 365 photo blog. Relaxing watching TV after work.

Friday before we headed out to Tampa, I was reading blogs and Andie at Sweet.Southern.Spirited and found out I won a prize (you have to go visit her to see what I won!) for reading both her blogs. She has a great 365 photo blog of the same name as her original blog. Only it's all pictures and well, some reading too. I've Been reading her blog since I started blogging just about two years ago. She's from New Orleans and is always doing cool things from berry picking, taking photos and just loving life she inspires me a lot! I hope you guys will get a chance to get to know her.

She is also the proud mom of Scruffy!
