Pink Flowers
May 7, 2009 – 6:57 pm
I’m definitely NOT one of those girls who squeals, “Oh! Let me get a vase!” on the rare occasions that I’m given flowers. I can barely tell the difference between tulips and roses, and I wouldn’t know a daffodil if it bit me on the ass. Flowers usually bore me, and I think they’re are a waste of money. You buy them, they just sit there, they die in 2 days, you throw them out. The end.
But… there’s this bush in my back yard that I’m borderline obsessed with. Once a year, it produces these vivid pink flowers that I just love. And every year around this time, I find myself frequently looking out the window to see if the flowers started to bloom yet. Today, they did. No clue what it is - but it sure is purdy.

Brie: Hey Jill, have you ever eaten Chex Mix Puppy Chow?
Jill: No. What’s in it?
Brie: Peanut butter, chocolate, Chex, and powdered sugar.
Jill: Disgusting. I would never eat that.
Time passes.
30 minutes later, I walked into the kitchen and found this:
I stared at it for a few seconds before trying a piece. And sweet Jesus, I was hooked instantly. IT IS LIKE CRACK. I swallowed it down, and before I knew it, I found myself hovering over the mound of sugary goodness, shoving square after square into my mouth like I was Lucille Ball in that chocolate factory episode.
CRACK, I tell you.
I’m just gonna put this out there:

I HAVE NEVER SEEN AN EPISODE OF THE HILLS. And I still don’t know who Heidi and Spencer are. I just know they’re…… from there.
I have no regrets.
Thank you.

A bowl of homemade brown sugar & maple oatmeal. Yes, I’m officially 84 years old today.
Q: What is christianity?

A: It is the belief that a two-thousand-year-old jewish zombie can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him that you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat an apple off a magical tree in a wonderland.

Did you ever get a movie in from Netflix… leave it sitting around for like a week… and then return it without even watching it - because the thought of watching it made you feel icky inside? Me too.
