a quick catch up

lush it is not
so the dill-holes finally came through 6 weeks post-closing, i have sod in the front yard. it is far from the greenest of green grass one could hope...it's actually a dirty green/brown color. the side and back yards are another story. they were sprinkled with seed and have hay thrown about everywhere. i might as well put on my best plaid shirt, don some pig tails and grab my pitchfork for the awesome hoedown that's about to get started.

foreigner follower
i know i shouldn't be complaining, but considering the fact that i once again have foreign moron neighbors is quite trying. i came home from work wednesday night, around 12:00am, to find about a 2ft x 4ft chunk of my yard laying in the street. one of the moronic neighbor kids, of course the one who just got his license, drove across my lawn taking it with him. nice that his even more moronic parents, who sit on their front porch all day and night-so i know they saw what happened, didn't bother to move the sod back in place or make junior do it. so now, if you will, picture me at 12:15am, hands buried deep in mud, picking up my sorry excuse for grass yard and trying to puzzle piece it back together. i wish those morons spoke english better so i could really let them know how i felt. god i hope the sod roots quick.

don't call me renee mosely
so apparently, the whacked out lady, renee, who had my phone number before me was not a reliable chick. since having the number 3 creditors have called looking to collect, walgreens pharmacy has left 4 messages about picking up my prescription at the store on grand and wherever and creve couer corrections department called this morning at 8:30 asking me to accept a collect call from some random dude in lock-up.

just call me klepto
lately, by no fault of my own, people have been voluntarily allowing me to not pay for items. for instance, while on an outing to target for some new household items a few weeks ago, i accidentally left a tape measure in the bottom of my cart and did not realize it until i was in the parking lot loading my car. surely, had the cashier been paying more attention to her job and not her fellow employee, she would have noticed the $12 item; therefore, not my fault. then this evening, petsmart felt obligated to return the favor too. marshall needed some treats, chewies, a new harness and leash. this time, i didn't even have a cart, i was holding all the items so there was no chance of me burying something on accident. i placed the 4 items on the counter, said hello to the pimple-faced kid at the register, swiped my credit card, got my receipt, picked up my bag and was on my merry way. i get into the car and realize just how cheap that venture was and think something isn't right. sure enough, i look at my receipt and junior missed scanning marshall's new $25 leash. again, i was already out of the store and not about to go pay for his mistake. (in case you are wondering, i'm not the only person that this situation happens to...just ask jessie and joe about one of ava's birthday presents from toys r us.)

give me tivo or give me death
i now have tivo/dvr with my new cable connection. it is the absolute best invention ever! considering i am never home to watch tv, i can record any and everything now! it's the best; however, finding time to watch everything that i have in the queue is another subject. seriously people, pausing/rewinding/fast forwarding tv is just the zaniest thing. i order you all to get it, you can thank me later.

that should hold you all over until the weekend. i'll work on putting up some pictures of the new joint later this weekend.
