My New PINK Toy!
In order to help me overcome my recent bout with PCD (Post Cruise Depression), I decided that I needed a new hobby or new toy. I have been "casually" looking for a new laptop for awhile, so last weekend we happened to find this little beauty just calling to us from the back shelves of Fry's! Since she was PINK, we knew she belonged to our family! Addison is less-than-thrilled with the color, but she has all the cool techie perks that he likes - plus, he already has his own "man-laptop" in a very manly black color (yes, it matches his black "man-purse" too).I know the color does not "make" the computer - but it sure does make me smile when I see it!

Ultimate EEEEEEUUUUUUWWWWWW!
Okay, sorry, I have no picture to post with this entry (I really didn't think to grab the camera at the time) - but I had to share my ULTIMATE EEEEUUUUUWWWWW!
This afternoon I was vacuuming the living room - not usually a big deal. I finished up the living room and moved into the dining room, as usual. When I was done vacuuming the dining room, I walked back into the living room to unplug the vacuum, and there, on my freshly vacuumed carpet was a DEAD MOUSE! Next to the poor dead rodent, was a very proud dog! Now the dead mouse was gross enough, but my question was ... "where in the house were you hiding this thing, and how long had it been hanging out in my house?!?!?!?!!" I'm sure it entered our home dead - thankfully. We often have such deceased "gifts" brought to the back door by our cats and dog. But when did she manage to sneak it in? That is one very NASTY thing that has been in my house for who knows how long, and who knows where! It was still "intact", so hopefully it hadn't been around too long. The last rodent-guest was found outside with all it's innards out. Yuck! But finding one on my clean white CARPET is just wrong.
Since it was late in the afternoon when our "guest" appeared (they usually drop by in the mornings when I am here alone), I kindly placed it out on the front porch to share with Addison when he arrived home. Why should I always have all the fun!?!?!??!
