Mickey's Musings

Saturday

Good Morning! For me it's morning (1:30PM).

We picked up the new computer yesterday. I don't really have a clue what it has, I stood there and looked like I half understood when my son told them what he wanted. I treated mysef to a flat screen monitor. It has Windows XP, so naturally all the patches had to had.

We haven't put a protective fence around the air conditioner yet, so the male dog has to go out the back on a chain. Despite the fact that we have about 100 - 125 ft in the backyard and a bazillion trees, that new air conditioner unit just screams, "LIFT YOUR LEG ON ME!" every time he exits the slider.

Speaking of the backyard, I was thrilled that we managed to install a motion light all by our lonesomes! True, we shut off every circuit beaker, ya know, just to be safe *G*. I have this thing about electricity. I managed to get a good shock one time when I was working the old switchboard at my college. Odd, those EMG (I think that's what they're called) tests that they give to check for carpal tunnel and all that, don't bother me. I do attract lightning though and manage t turn lights on and off when I walk past or drive past them. And we go through lightbulbs very quickly. I wish I knew more about this, I know it has to do with an electricity field or something.

The house looks like a mess bomb hit it and left debris everywhere. I like to manage to get the debris centrally located (at least) I'm not going to aim too high here *G*

Did I mention that this would have been my wedding anniversary? My son't father and I actually met 25 years ago today and got married 22 years ago today. Despite the fact that I wanted a divorce and had a horrible marriage, it can never been looked upon without great joy, as my son came out of this friendship that went bad.

Elvis passed 26 years ago today. Rest in peace.

It's very hot again today. It seems that everyone, everywhere is saying that.
