Mundane participation for the tragically bored.

Nice to see you post here, Daisy.


Edit, just looked back - Daisy, my welcome is late late late, see you have posted a bunch before.
I still like this thread. People are pretty real on it somehow.

Indeed entertaining. (:
It's human nature to think of ourselves.
It's also in the same nature we become curious of others.

P.s. panzade, worst thing about the groves is that they're right next to Disney world. The fireworks at night are nice but the wayward tourist are ridiculous.
Glad I moved out to the dirt farms in BFE. (;

eating: Nothing.
drinking: hot chocolate with a 1/2 tsp hazelnut coffee pellets

Disneyworld, you poor thing! I'm acquainted with the California Disneyland but not the Florida one. Only time I enjoyed it was with a boyfriend I liked and it was pouring rain a lot of the time, hardly anyone there. I had family members who worked for Disney in the thirties so I feel free to be caustic. Also was taught many long years later in design school to like the planting. I hated the planting. (Haven't seen it lately)

I'm here, so

wearing: long sleeved loud french art printed thin and slivery tee shirt under a khaki long rolled up sleeved work shirt, old black painting pants (this was bathroom painting, not painting painting, so all the same color tiny dark brownish pink dots), same old faux crocs, the dark ones. Fish earrings, the ones I made from fish pendents from the japanese store.
hearing: Disc 2 of Night at the Opera - right now, Jose Carreras and Barbara Hendricks singing O soave fanciulla from La Boheme

drinking: cheap chard on ice
doing: avoiding some paperwork
looking forward to: getting paperwork done
feeling: fine at the moment
wanting: some rearrangement of my life

eating: Just got a Magnolia Azuki red bean milk bar from the freezer. Only got it on a whim as it was on sale at the grocery store. Kind of tasty. Definitely won't buy them at full price.

wanting : what don't I want right now? actually what I want is a particular piece of music to be recorded because I want to dance to it

Wearing: A new shirt that I picked up at one of the local Goodwill's, it's a sueded Henley, very comfortable, it's nearly an olive drab color...actually I think it may be OD green, but I like it anyway. I think there are roughly 2 dozen henley's in my closet.
Hearing: Phil Collins - Do You Remember.
Eating: Waiting on Breakfast, pork chops and fresh eggs from the backyard.
Drinking: Coke-a-cola.
Doing: Was searching madly for batteries for the mouse when it went Kaputt... after destroying half the house in what resembled an FBI man hunt, the batteries were located and secured, the mouse is now happily scurrying about the dinning room as I type this.
Looking forward to: Painting my wifes shop, purple walls, with a white beadboard wainscoat for the bottom. Then all new white trim from top to bottom, crown, chair rail and base.
Feeling: Loads better since spring has sorta/kindaish sprung.
Wanting: The paint to coat properly, so I don't have to keep going over it...last week I hung textured wallpaper on the top portion, and sometimes that stuff can be a bugger to cover all the little cracks and crevices.

Wearing: still in my bathrobe and faux crocs, the grey blue ones (just after 9 am here)
Hearing: a car going fast on the speedy street beyond the back wall
Eating: just now finished thawed and heated sardine potato fishcake with basil garlic mayo dip

Looking forward to: going out with Diane in a couple of hours to get a snack and go back to her house to see what is happening in her garden
Feeling: happy about spring springing
Wanting: to get myself in gear re yardwork and paperwork. This is a constant, most of the time, but bears repeating.

wearing:black yoga pants, white short sleeve henley t, blue and white mans dress shirt I stole and painted purple flowers all over with green vines. bare feets - my feet are hot as in warm. I think it is the Bare Foot Perfect Pink Wine I just finished up...for some reason drinking wine makes my feet hot. So weird.
eating: no
drinking: I have been...
doing: I have a few more things to do before I can call it a day to do...I am procrastinating for some reason....I guess I am not ready to see the day leave.
looking forward to : the next thing...whatever that may be
feeling: pretty much the same. I find moments of sublime happiness then fall into a funk just as fast. I think it is my artistic temperament. If I could not understand being a little "not right", I don't suppose I could love my multi-need babies as much as I do. It takes Special to understand Special I suppose.

Wearing:  Nothing. It's laundry day.

Eating:

Drinking: Water. To counteract that last soda sugar high.

Looking forward to: The rain stopping so I can go outside and check on the gardens. 

Feeling: Funny. 

wearing: brown strap velcro closure Birkenstocks (ha...said I wouldn't do that when I moved to Cali); 2.25 boost old lady reading glasses from Walgreens (I have a pair in each room, my pocketbook and the car...this seems to be indicative of something....); Kev's latest job-affiliated t-shirt in moss green with white logo and slogan; knee length black jogging shorts.
eating: gastronomical limbo between breakfast and lunch - but I am planning a salmon and tilapia nirvana with steamed root veggies.
drinking: Two irresponsibly unnecessary and lukewarm sips of coffee.
doing: Contemplating odd uncharacteristic recent behavior, avoiding grocery shopping - thankful for rare rainburst excuse, wondering when I began really hating TV.
feeling: older

Wearing: A white button up shirt, American Eagle jeans, and the usual straw hat with a black band...the feet are bare....oh yeah.
Hearing: Concrete Blonde - Joey
Eating: Snacking on leftover pizza.
Drinking: Coke classic
Doing: Was at this years grand march, which is an occasion where the couples {or singles} going to a prom or similar outing, show themselves off to the onlookers before the event begins...tickets are sold to these things which in turn pays for the band and such.

Our younger daughter fractured her ankle last Friday sliding in to home during a softball game, so me and my oldest daughter "blinged" out her crutches with some tuelling* and beads my wife uses to make her doggie bows at the grooming shop. Which turned out pretty neat, everyone thought they were cute...but the best part was when her boyfriend, who is a 6'3 strapping young lad, picked her up and carried her across the gym floor...I thought the crowd was going to bust my eardrums, my wife has watched the video about a dozen times now, and each time she breaks out in tears...was a powerful moment.
Looking forward to: Hearing how the rest of the night went.
Feeling: Happy that she got to go to prom, she was more upset about missing prom than having a fractured leg.
Wanting: Nothing at all.

*The stuff tutu's and formal dresses are made of....no idea how you spell it.
