BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS. . .or....summer in Texas

I finally ventured outside today...fuck! it's hot...It's days like this that make me rethink my love for the Lone Star State..Wonder how much it costs to live in Ana Cortes, Washington? One of my girlfriends lives there and I have seen pictures and it looks cool and is beautiful...nah, can't leave my little town of West...what would they do for intertainment?
I went to sleep at 1am and got up at 6:45am...read my DAM NEWS and made eggs with my new killer salsa..man is it good...(it's easy peasey if you want the recipe)
Because I am a good across the pond friend..I watched soccer this morning...England against Paraquay...is that spelled right?..anyhow...England won...1-0...made by Beckham...as in Bend it like Beckham...and the damn usa/Czech game will be on espn2 and don't get it on my antennae...fuck...
I have so many new birdies flying around on porch, I keep thinking of the movie The Birds....all the new babies are out...the baby cardinals are the sweetest things you have ever seen...so tiny with those little orange beaks...no baby jays or doves..but lots of other babies...going thru the bird seed at twice the rate...pigs.
Went to the library and checked out 6 books and still have 2 so that should last me till Monday..I read a book called Lahyrinth by somebody Mosses...I think that is her name..Kathy Mosses I think...anyhow..it was very interesting...about the Cathars, the Inquisition, the Holy Grail, Christian religion, love and betrayal.
It was a little hard to get into..as it switched from past to the present..Man, the Catholic Church killed a whole bunch of people in the name of Jesus...nice fellas...
I am waiting for Sooner to come thru this coming week...that is going to be fun..hope I get to see Hannah the Banana...maybe take some pictures..I have a throw away camera and only have taken about 4-5 picts...will get a disc and maybe someone can load them on and put them on my site....
Good news, I got my little newsletter from Janet Ivanovitch and she has 4-5 new books coming out..12 on the Dot this month and the rest in July...she cracks me up...She has one that tells when Granny first came out..I love Granny, she is my kinda Granny.
I was going to post another rant about the republicans but thought I would give 'Dave' some time to cool down...heehee..will post in the near future about the little trips the Congress has been taking, along with their families, and their staff..paid for by various lobby groups..them fuckers...will give you a little teaser...A woman who was chief of staff of to Tom DeLay when he was House Majority Leader took 18 trips from 2000-2002, many with her husband at a cost to others of more than $85,000....that's just a start....and they are not all Republicans either..I will list the top 10 from Texas...them fuckers..and I will try and find out the top 10-20 of all of them and see if we can't vote them fuckers out of office by next term...
But right now?...it's just to fucking hot to bother with them...going to go stuff my bra with icecubes...should be able to get 2-3 trays worth in there...or maybe just stick them under my tits...it's nearly a 100 already and it's just 1pm..fuckity fuck fuck fuck...

I'm melting here!!! I'm ready to move to the Pacific NW too. Oh, if only we had a summer home. I bet according to Dave, the reason we don't have summer homes is because we aren't republican.
Enjoy the Birds. That movie was much better in black and white. Colorizing it ruined the effect. However, I was able to turn the color off on my TV to watch the wonderful film and it was mucho better.
Oh and real life birds are cool too! I told you the baby cardinals were going to be cute!
Enjoy the ice cubes!

Moving sucks, but central air was invented by the devil to get people to sell their souls.
I'm cold.
The only reason that people become Neocons is that they think that if they join the team they will become rich too.
Remember the first rule of business, Fuck the other guy before he fucks you. When you live with this as your guiding principal you can expect them to be delusional in other ways too.

Hell, Tom Delay still acts like he's the flavor of the month. He said the Republicans changed the culture of Washington. I think all they did was brazenly bring the corruption out of the back rooms and into the Senate and House chambers.

Ice cubes under the titties, damn girl, you must be scorched!!! I love the new birds! I don't have as many as you do, just sparrows mostly, but I love to watch the wee ones learning to fly and eat and clean themselves!! They are so cute! Have you read Holy Blood Holy Grail? I never read Da Vinci Code. Off topic: Have you read Mists of Avalon? Or A Sword at Sunset (by Rosemary Sutcliffe)?

Whatever you do, don't move to Bellingham!! Cost of living is skyrocketing here. When I moved here 4 years ago, the average house cost about 100-150K. Now it's around 300K for your standard 3 bedroom home. Even out in the boonies. It's just nuts. Skagit County isn't quite as bad (that's where Ana Cortes is), but it's still not good. But, it truly is beautiful country! And the weather in the summer is gorgeous. However, it seriously sucks in the winter. I get major sun deprivation.
