Honey and the kitty


Its almost spring! Jesi and I were able to take a walk outside today and not freeze our thighs off. We were also able to bottle our Black Ale and Chocolate Stout. Now we need to order more! Eric definitely wants to brew outside using a burner, instead of doing it in our new kitchen. Let me just say that I am willing to brew any time, any place. Austin Homebrew has a flat $6.99 shipping fee!

Hello!


The kittens are getting mobile. This is going to be fun! And for some damn reason we seem to be totally willing to keep all of the bastards. I know, I know... Mary you definitely get one. I know, I know... I hate cats and have adverse nasal responses to them. But these stupid kittens are so damn adorable. I could sit for hours and just watch them fall over each other and slip on the bathroom floor. Who needs tv? This is real life.

Eric and I visited my grandparents on Easter. I feel for my grandfather and grandmother. She endured a difficult life while he drank. Now he is enduring her in her poor health and old age. They must have had some happy times at some point? Either way, it gives me something to work for with Eric. Although, I don't think "work for" is exactly the correct way to put it. Yes, you do need to "work" at a relationship - but in my eyes, its not really "work." It is all about fucking communication. Bitch at each other. Make fun of each other. Laugh at and with each other. Care for each other. And most importantly, talk to each other. Everything else should fall into place. Don't be a fucking martyr and and bottle it up. Speak! These rules apply to all relationships, damnit.

I am fucking pregnant! It is really starting to show and freak me out. I need to get health care for baby Alex. I need to pack my bags for the hospital. I need to fill out paperwork for the hospital. I need to take a Lamaze class. I need to stop eating ice cream.

G!

I am so excited! I think I found the best thing in the universe. It solves all my problems with the universe! Thanks to KP for the Parents magazine subscription or I might not have found it. Its the G Diaper! Yes. The G! It will satisfy my need to not use those plastic diapers that take 500 years to bio-degrade. It will satisfy Eric's need to not have to deal with cloth diapers. I really think it could work! I might just buy the starter kit now...

Little Actions...

So I finally got Jen's updated information for her site, Jennuinehairdesigns.com. There are a few things that need to be tweaked but for the most part its all up and running, er, webbing.

I found the mystery charge at work for a woman who gave us her mother's first name and we misspelled the last name. That was a fun time because the woman just kept calling and it was during the "hell week" we all loved so much.

The kittens are finally starting to open their eyes. Those cute little asshole bastards.

The most important little action this week is my baby. He has been kicking up a storm in my belly ever since the Indian food. He was definitely moving before that but now he is just rambunctious. For the first time last night Eric finally felt one of his kicks. He also started talking to him to encourage more movement.

What a crazy week...

I drilled a famous Mr. Sadler about the address on his id not matching the address on his ticket order. I also met BB King's drummer by some crazy chance - he got to see the fun part of Pok when a naked man sitting on a bench was taken away by the police.

Six day old kittens


Wow. This has been a crazy week. Here are the kittens almost a week old. They should open their eyes within a week. I really hate cats but I am finding myself really loving these little bastards. I could sit for hours and watch them wiggling around.

This is one crazy week. We have thirteen shows in seven days? Or something like that? Then another show two days after that... It rained today and I wore my new birk sandals. I shaved my legs and did a shotty job of it too... I am tired. I need to take a break.
