Stuff

So the Official Blog Acronyms are Rocket, Mina, ?, Ducky, and RTHTG.
Write it down or something. It's beautiful and rainy here, and cold. I love it.
I'm watching CougarTown and contemplating everything that's wrong with society.

Some Limited Success!

I defrosted the freezer last night, washed it out this morning, and managed to make and freeze tortilla soup, four pounds of 'sweet and sour kielbasa', and parmesan cheesy stuffed jumbo shells. That's a total of six meals, I think. Woot.
Spent awhile trying to find a decent version of a hymn on Itunes, to no avail. Everybody wants to sing like they're Beyonce, when all I want is something I can hum along with.
I found out that we have fleas in our carpet when RTHTG got up this morning; he's covered in bites. I got some de-flea spray and vaccumed out his bed, but if he wakes up with more bites tomorrow we're going to relocate to the In-Laws(God help us) until we can get it fixed. I checked the dogs with a wet flea comb, but there's not a bug, or a bit of bug poo on them. I'm going to call the Orkin guy tomorrow, to see if they can kill fleas.
Construction proceeds slowly, the guys didn't show up today, but I was assured they'd be done by Wednesday, so hopefully that'll work out. The guy at the liquor store remembered me and asked how the trip was, that was kind of nice. He has a new beard and appears to be working on a handlebar mustache.

I had a 'SUPERAWESOMEOMG' idea for a webcomic on the trip home, now I'm debating whether or not to put any effort into actually developing it. I may post a few half-assed sketches here just for fun.

Im trying to think of blog code-names for the kids. All I have so far is RTHTG for the youngest, and Ducky for the second youngest, because of their songs. Suggestions are appreciated.

I miss you all so much.

We got home yesterday afternoon, hitting alot of construction on the way. The house is also a construction site and everything is everywhere. DreadMuffin is dead. Swiper and Zero were pleased to see us...Swiper's gotten fat again. He must be predisposed to that. The kids adjusted okay, we went and got milk and cheese and whatnot last night. Watched the Mayweather/Marquez fight, Marquez lost.
I got up at 7 this morning, that's new. RTHTG is down for his nap, Mr. Legs is wiring R's room. It will be nice to have the use of it again, and it will be much warmer. They tore down the ceiling and put a new one up, so no giant hole for the possums to come through anymore. M & FIL left for Vegas this morning, hope they have a good time.
And that's it.

ETA: I also have a bazillion pounds of bratwurst in my freezer, as well as a rack of ribs. Guess I'll start my freezer cooking adventure with sausage recipes.
Got any?
