Time waits for no one, even though you ask it to

Well, life goes on, as usual. Here it is the middle of the month. Had a crazy month. Haven't accomplished much. Haven't felt good at all, which accounts for my do nothing ness, but hey, I've got a license to sit and lie now. Yay? No. But anyway.

The parents are going to move to Kentucky. So instead of being 6 hours away for 6 months a year, they will be 9 hours away for 6 months a year, and no longer in the city I grew up in. That is weird, but that is life. We all have to move on. They will be moving to a town called Gilbertsville, Kentucky. Sounds real fishing oriented, so they should have a good time and a restful time too. No more big flower gardens to weed and tend to. No visit in 4 days either.

Guess it is just me and Chris on his birthday then. I know he was so looking forward to dinner with my dad on his birthday...

Did you ever buy just the perfect gift for someone?

I know my hub won't read this, so I am safe. There is this silly pet in the World of Warcraft that you can only buy online and have it shipped to you. It is an actual little stuffed animal that comes with a card to then get a virtual pet to follow you around in game. Well, last night, Chris was chasing someone down yelling, a "mini wind rider cub!!!" This from someone who a few months ago didn't like the "silly pets and had no use for them!" (And 6'1" motorcycle riding tough guy I can't get to smile in a pic.)

I said, "so?" He said, "but I haven't seen one and it is so cute, I wanted a better look!" I said, "that is the one you have to get the stoopid stuffed animal to get." "Oh. But it's cute and ..." "No"

I had ordered 2 earlier and also the grypon (1 - for me) which is the other side's pet -- express. He said, anyway, I want the headphones.

He had just broke the end off his headphones that night. I asked if he did it on purpose -- he says no. I'm off to the store to see how much they cost. His birthday is in 18 days, and he will need a new set of headphones and he uses them every day....

Slights - Why do mine not count?

I was having a discussion with someone today about feelings, as usual, mine don't count. I have had mine hurt numerous times in the past by this person, and it didn't seem to matter that mine were hurt - I just apologized, it happened years ago, so move on. However, I was told repeatedly that I had hurt theirs by something I had done over nearly a year, and nearly a year and a half a go...but evidently they didn't need to move on quite yet -- until they said so.

This is why I say -- you don't want to know.
