Awakened last night at 12:30 by the neighbor blaring his stereo. I listened to it for a while, then put in my earplugs. He then went from rock to Johnny Cash and turned it up! So I marched over at 2 a.m. He had both car doors open and the hatchback , decorated with blue christmas lights and his laptop, & came out the door with a 1/2 gallon of something. I told him to turn it down or put the car in drive. Johnny Cash, he says to me. I said I Love Johnny Cash too, but not at 2 in the morning. :roll:

Does Johnny Cash sing I'll have a Blue Christmas?

New noises in my quiet neighborhood: new neighbor several homes away with big dog that completely mimicks a siren. We've had a lot of sirens lately with the flooding and fires. Poor dog gets hoarse late at night.

We have so many property tax bills here that I accidentally paid one at the wrong due date. The bills are color coded. So, I get another one in the same color and I put it aside thinking it was a mistake. I finally open it and it's a Notice of Intent to File a Fi.Fa. So, I put that aside thinking it was obviously a mistake. A few days later I call the Tax Comm. office and learned of my mistake. Holy Smokes! After struggling the last 2.5 years, the last thing that's going to happen is I lose my home due to a mistake like this. So, I paid it and all is just fine.

Just got the real property tax bill and it went up 35%! Basturds! :angry:

I saw a dead racoon out of my bathroom window and thought Chester must of killed it. All kinds of thoughts running through my mind. Did it have rabies, when did he killl it. What do I do with it, where do I bury it.

I get dressed and walk out to the back yard......LOL, it's his stuffed toy I haven't seen in a long time, and yes, it is dead!

My other bloodhound would bury things and if you got close to the burial, he would start dancing around. Funny, aren't they?


On another note: cohort busted in a ginormous lie ; don't people know these things always resurface?

Give someone enough rope and they hang themselves every time, every single time. What a pity.

Gee, I thought $24 in Texas was steep. How long does yours last? Ours is 6 years.

If someone asked you as you were going into the grocery store, "Do you mind taking my cart back in? "...

what would you do?

Would you hesitate for even a second?

Dear snobby biatch,
i'm not lazy. I'm not stupid. I know where the carts go when you finish with them. It's just that i depend on the kindness of strangers after i unload all my groceries and buckle up two kids under 3 into a hot car. I don't like to leave them unattended even for the few seconds it would take me to push the cart over there. You were going into the store. Was it really such a freakin' inconvenience for you and did you have to look at me deadpan and then over to the cart corral as if i was a moron?
Respectfully yours,
a worn out, hot, aggravated, and annoyed SoWal mom.

Dear no-driving, probably unlicensed immigrant,
When making a left turn, you must yield to oncoming traffic!
Sincerely,
pissed off

Dang, I feel better. :roll:

tip the bagboy/girl?

Still 100,000 leaves in my tree. I am going to be getting up leaves until pollen pods start falling!

New Rant.

If local big box office supply stores sell the refill calendars for the DayRunner calendar/dry-erase board message centers that you stick to the wall or to the front of your refrigerator, why to they not still sell the message center itself?

They don't last forever, ya know. Ours looks like crap and I wanted a new one. Maybe Amazon.com will save the day.

I wish my animals could get on the same potty and I want some love schedule.
