Housework ADD…

I have housework ADD. First I started in the kitchen. Clean the counter, scrub the sink or replace it for the best sink from these granite sink reviews online… oh look, this goes in the bathroom, not the kitchen. Cart the item off to the bathroom. Oh look, I should put this away. You know, I should paint my nails – I really need to paint my nails. You know, I want to read some more Harry Potter today. I should do laundry – I bought something new called OdorKlenz I got it online https://www.odorklenz.com/laundry/ it is supposed to be great. I really should get my fuzzy slippers away from the dog…

Finally, I realized I needed to get back to cleaning the kitchen.

If I keep this up, I will never get my housework done!

How Could Something so Good be so Bad?

Jennifer pointed out BuyMusic.com the other day, and it seemed so wonderful to have a music alternative for PC users. I was looking forward to the weekend and the chance to dig through the site to learn more about it and the features they offer.

Fortunately for me, although unfortunate for Jenn, they showed their true colors yesterday with downloads that don’t work, CDs that can’t be created, and customer service that just really doesn’t give a damn. Yes, yes, you can read all about it on her blog and over at ScriptyGoddess.

After all she has been through, I doubt I will ever give them so much as a dime unless they have some serious changes to how they do business and to their privacy policies. Spread the word and warn your friends!

Root, Root, Root for the Home Team!

Back in 1984, I went to my first and only Cubs game in Chicago. They played the Astros, and later that year we found out we were moving to Houston. Tonight? Tonight I’ll be sitting in Section 306, Row 5 at MinuteMaid Park (click on the section number on the map and you can see the view from my seat) watching the Astros play the Cubs. I’ll be rooting for my home team, but I’ll be thinking of Dawn, my favorite Cubs fan, at the same time. Really, I don’t care who wins – I just love going to the baseball game!

Watch the Moblog for live shots from the field! Maybe I’ll get lucky and catch a fly ball! (As long as I don’t get hit in the head with one!) The day is ending a lot better than it started!

“Take Me Out to the Ballgame” lyrics found here – everyone sing along!

Boston Bingo!

Soon I will be traveling. Seeing new places and new faces. While I’m in Boston, I think I just might play some “Hipster Bingo” and I´m also going to try BBq bingo, I think you should try it too, I hear it’s all the rage! Click the card for the large version. [via bitter-girl.com, where I stole the graphic. Originally found at Catbirdseat.]

I’m not sure if it was the “chunky plastic-frame glasses” or the “blogger with digital camera” that hooked me. I can’t stop giggling over it, and I think I can get Bingo within a day or two.
