The only thing better than:

- a Mexican Coke is a Dublin Dr Pepper.

- chocolate cake is Red Velvet Cake.

- Led Zeppelin are the Yardbirds.

- Mexican food is Indian food.

- Jonathan Ross is Russell Brand.


- Russell Brand is Rhod Gilbert, especially since he mentioned me twice on his podcast this week (I was on the radio in WALES!)



- a cute cat is a talking cat:


- a talking cat is a babbling cat:

Things to do

I finally got my hair cut last night, the first time since February. It's kind of a shag with bangs. Now I need to color my hair again so it doesn't look so mousy. It's been long and thick and bothersome, especially since summer began and the 100 degree days started, so I was very happy to lose about 4 inches of hair.

I got for my yearly "well woman" (HAH!) exam at the end of this month. I've been using my elliptical machine regularly, but I haven't noticed any change at all in my weight. It has helped my pain level, so I guess it's worth it. I'm still exhausted most of the time.

My father called me couple of weeks ago and mentioned that he will be moving his mother (I haven't referred to her as my grandmother in 20 years. She's a terrible bitch) in with him and his wife. I made a comment that "I'll bet your wife will LOVE that" and he got pissed off and hung up on me. Maybe he'll stay out of my life for good. My life goes better without him in it.

My aunt and her husband are finally in an assisted living facility. They should have been there 2 years ago. They hate it, of course. My aunt told me that it's like living in a hospital. They're both angry that his daughter sold their car, even though neither of them can drive anymore. I try to sympathize with her, but after a phone call from her, I feel drained. I'm sad that she's so desperately unhappy.

I'm very much looking forward to the end of summer, or at least the end of 100 degree days. We still have another 2 months of them. I hate summer.....
