packing peanuts

- they snap as they circle around your head

There is a dog!

I found a half gallon of Cookies and Cream ice cream in the freezer!
Above the frozen pizza.

Now that's not where the ice cream goes, but right now I'm not complaining.
I'm enjoying!

Yummm.

bad penny

Ought to know what a liar I am, ought to know me by now
Don't curse me for my nature, don't bless me for my luck
Just a bad penny, I always come back to you
Just a bad penny
Should have known you couldn't trust me far as you can throw me
Couldn't throw me too far
Just a bad penny, couldn't throw me too far
Such a bad penny, such a bad penny
Bad, bad penny, bad, bad penny
Slap my hand

the system is down

and chris broke it.

that's a nice hanger!

This is from the Google ad that came up, somewhere on the left there.

That's a really nice item indeed.
I wonder if they make clothes pins though?

Update-
Neither of those fine companies have clothes pins.
We need some better ads here!

more laundry

Inside now, the whites.
Came up short, you guessed it, two pins. Only I use the wedgy-style pins inside.
But still.
And I looked around in all the usual clothes pin hiding sports, and I'm not just saying this for the good of the story, didn't find a one.
So two undies have to share w/ another.
Shame it is.

pint glasses

We got 25 and came within a gnats breath of having only 24, and these are just the ones that are in the cupboard.
As I was counting one tried to jump to its demise, though I would have none of that and daftly trapped it against the counter and another. Whew, it was really close.

But we got too many of these.
And these aren't just plain ones', they're all from events or something really cool like that.
They've become quite the thing to give away at races and such.
Though now, like the t-shirts, they are taking up too much room and we don't use them or break them often enough.
I'd like to make a quilt of the t-shirts.
I drink my beer from the bottle.

basil

Is the only "real" thing we got growing in our "garden".
But I sure do like having it. Fresh basil is the best in everything.
Neighbor Mike says that if we let it go to seed, it'll come back for next year, but it won't really last long in the house if we pot it, after the sun starts not coming around so much.
That's nice.

laundry

I had two wooden spring-type clothes-pins fail on me today.
And they're surely not more than 4-5 years old.
I want to know who I should talk to about this travesty.

But more interestingly, when I got done hanging the three loads of laundry, I was... two pins short.
Nature or nurture?
