Taste These Teeth Please... Better Hurry

You know... I think all day that I should go ahead and write my blog posting for the day. I'm just bursting with ideas... until it gets late & I think, "geez, I really should write something for my regulars"... and then there's just nothing at all in my head. WHY IS THAT? It's very frustrating... that specifically and, honestly, this funny, fickle thing we call life.

Well, let's see... I know there were at least some pics from today that I wanted to share. So, I'll do that first. All of these are from today (I know, right?!?!?!). The first grouping is of JON'S DOGS (and what they do to my lovely flower beds):








These are of MY DOGS (after bath-time... which happened to occur during work-time... oops):





I just thought these were hilarious. Every time I walk out the door and close it behind me (not letting the doggies follow me), they beeline for it. I'm sure they'd stand there and watch forever.





And the reason they were trapped behind the door today? Well, let's see if you can find it. "It" was driving the dogs crazy... and they probably would've trashed the poor anise (that doesn't need much more trashing, sadly) to get to "it". Don't cheat... look at the one on the left first. Then, if you can't find Waldo, go ahead and try the 2nd one.





So, I've spent the last two days trying to get organized (amongst some work... I really am a good employee, regardless of what I try to make you believe... truthfully, I've been working all night on streamlining organizational codings in UltiPro, testing & finalizing the set-up of eAppraisal, figuring out the data import & implementation for eAppraisal in Tijuana, and trying to force a group to work together to set up a PTO accrual for CNS employees in UltiPro -- between about 7:00 when we got back from Papa's Pizza and now... see, you were just dying to know that, weren't you?). Anyway, the organizing... I wish I could say I felt like I was getting somewhere. I think I just reshuffle piles. Ugh. Well, I have gotten some things filed away (or ready to be filed away) and thrown away. Now, I've just got to get the 20 or so piles of what-do-I-do-with-this-crap junk off my floor and desk. Anyway, I live for the pleasant interruptions, though... so feel free. :-) Speaking of pleasant interruptions... I thought y'all should know I'm still obsessing about running. I still put my 30 minutes in every day (well, most weekdays, at least). I know it's slow... but I'm knocking on the door of kicking the tail of 3 miles (can you say prepositional preposition?). I'll have it beat soon, I'm sure... but, I'm kinda like lil' Nona & stuck on a plateau for the moment. Let's come off the flat place strong, little one.

Okay, I'm out of nonsense to subject you to for the evening. Hope you had a wonderful, fabulous, scrumpdidliocious Wednesday evening. Since I'm sure you're already tucked comfortably into bed (well, you should be, at least), I'll just mention that I missed you here (except for those of you in western time zones for whom it's not that late yet!). And here's hoping I'll catch up with you sooner than I think.

Humm...guess I needed to chose an identity. Tijuana...really??? well the Kahula would be great!!! Looks like your hounds and Jazzie have something in common...she has been rototilling our grass recently..must be the new spring shoots...also needs a bath when she gets in...Norm has been in germany for 1 day now + I'm sure has probably enjoyed a glass of that $260/flavor wine...are we jealous Heidi??? Jazz is delighted he's gone and is now sleeping on his bed...only bothers me when she sees me waking up then, needs to lick me with her dog-breath ...oh well, it's the thought(love) that counts...

I expect to challenge you into being my running/workout partner once my damn shoulder gets better. Figure it's no good to have shooting pain down my arm . . . bah. Soon, and then every day thereafter (evil laughter heh eheh)
