Did I mention yet that I'm glad to be back home? One of the greatest pleasures of returning was coming back to my computer and my keyboard. My mother-in-law was kind enough to allow me unlimited access to her notepad computer while I was vacationing. However, trying to type on that little keyboard was tough. It was like trying to tile the bathroom floor in a dollhouse after your fingers have turned into bratwurst. But now I'm back home with my nice big keyboard and I can stop having dreams about feral cats chasing me and trying to bite my fingers off.
The Governor has taken up a new hobby since we've been back. Trash can rummaging. I think he picked it up from The Crazyweiler. Tonight's bath will consist of a dip in pure alcohol.
And speaking of things gross...I saw THE COOLEST roadside death scene(animal, you animals) on the drive to the airport in Colorado Springs. A buck (mule deer, I think) got his antlers caught in a wire fence on the side of the highway. About two dozen vultures were circling overhead...just like a cartoon desert scene. One big ugly buzzard was sitting on the fence post right above the expired deer. I did not see one other road kill or otherwise deceased animal along the highways in Colorado. They must have already killed all their raccoons.
Time to go pry The Senator away from the television. It is a beautiful, hot, muggy day outside. We should not be spending our time indoors.
