Godzilla

I'm waging a war
Against the silver lace vine
Which I won't win soon.

Whoever thought it would be lovely to have this cursed thing planted in not one, but TWO places on my property should be shot. Oh, sure, at first glance it seems like a lovely ornamental vine, but it's so agressive that this lanscaper refers to is as Godzilla. I'm now in full hackback mode and it's still taking over. I hate it, I hate it, I hate it. Maybe I can work on eradicating it this year and then deal with the horrible state of my lawn next year...

Out of Season

Winter hung on long.
Now Summer seems to be here.
What happened to Spring?

No, seriously. What was that? Two weeks of Spring?

Very Bad Things

Swamped in paperwork
And sick as a dog, to boot.
Cruel double-whammy.

Poop.

My Left Foot (and my Right One, too)

It's time I confessed:
I don't know if these socks are
Blue-and-grey or grey.

Seriously. I've had them (and a few other pairs just like them) for quite some time and I still don't know if they're two shades of grey or grey and blue. Thank goodness for shoes.

The Big Sleep

Another day home.
One can only sleep so much
Before brain says, "No."

I did get some laundry and paperwork done, but apart from that it was sleeping, lots of fluids, and general lethargy. I'm feeling a bit better and will be back to work regardless tomorrow because there's just too much to get done.

Gross Anatomy

Illness drove me to
An afternoon home from work
Feeling like a dog.

As I said earlier today, I can't really complain as I'm not often overly sick, compared with many. Hopefully some rest will do me good and I can get back to the craziness of my life.

Indiana Jones and the Last Doom

Even allergies
Couldn't prevent our fun with
Indy-Fest, Part Two.

Sonya and I enjoyed the second part of our Indy-Fest project, watching not one, but two of the movies. (Yikes. Temple of Doom is not so very good, is it?) At some point we'll see the new one regardless of what people say. In the meantime, though, I'm in paperwork up to my neck. Yack.
