Monday Mop-Up.

• Rudy's Vikings lost their first game of the season yesterday. Sad day for the Vikings. I blame Burt Faver. I am sure Rudy does also. At least his Chargers won their game. His Badgers had a BYE so they did not play this weekend.
  
• I am finally without head and neck pain. I could not figure out if my neck pain was giving me a headache or my headache was giving me neck pain. Either way it sucked. For 2 days, it sucked. I am sick of chronic pain.
• It is 59 days until Christmas. 31 days until Thanksgiving. 5 days until Halloween. Just thought you should know.
  
• Barring some miraculous playing by the Eagles defense I am going to win my match-up against the #1 player in our Fantasy Football league tonight. His claim to fame will be that he has lost only twice. Beaten once by a kid and once by a girl. Bwahahahaha!
• Do you ever go back to the previous postings? I make it a habit to comment once it appears that everyone has left their mark. Check back. I may have said something back to you.
• Big Bang Theory is a repeat tonight. As is every other CBS prime-time show. What is up with THAT, CBS??
• I have been secretly added into Rudy's family Christmas present name drawing. There is one sister who will not find this amusing. The drawing was rigged and I have that sister's name. I will send her a very sweet gift and she will have no reason to bitch that I should not have been in the drawing because I am not a part of the family. tee hee!
• Cowboys won this weekend. It was a fun game to watch. Sun Devils did not. Not even close. :-(
• Rudy's son is home this week from Korea where he is stationed.I think they had some good father/son bonding time this weekend.
• I am sure you noticed the empty plate for the Meal on Friday. Rudy turned it into a smorgasbord. If you ever see the empty plate again that is your cue to put something on the table.
• I downloaded and installed a newer version of Trillian this weekend along with Patty. The jury is still out on this Trillian Astra. We are not sure we really like it that much. It is growing on me a bit though.
• It is Monday. The root of all evil. Tell me something good.

Monday Mop-up.

• Rudy's Vikings won and are now 6-0. They are one of four teams in the NFL that are currently undefeated. This could change tonight if Denver loses to the Chargers. Oh. Sorry, honey. When Denver loses to the Chargers. The Chargers are Rudy's other team.
• The city I live in had a community clean up and recycling event on Saturday. The city sets out giant bins and people with junk can bring it and deposit in said bins. The event lasts until the bins are full. The kid and I got up at o' dark-thirty and loaded up the old 32 inch TV and 4 old closet doors and headed out. We were surprised to see that the line of cars went around, down and around. Even though the line was long we deposited our junk in a decent amount of time. While waiting I noticed that they also had a document shredding station. WooT! I haven't shredded in a very long time. The kid brought me back home and I collected up the shredding piles and headed back. Now I no longer have junk in my backyard and garage and my shredding is gone! Score!
• I won my fantasy football match-up and my dismal record is 2-4. At least I got a win.
• I just spoke with a police sargent who knocked on my door. Someone using the neighbors name and my address attempted some fraud at a local bank. That is interesting. Or odd. Or both. Said sargent asked if I was married. I said no. He asked if I had a boyfriend and I responded that I do have a fiance. {that's you, Rudy. ;-)} He then asked for Rudy's name. I told him and he responded quickly "nope, that's not the guy". umm. gee. Ya think? Kinda funny since he obviously has the guy in custody back at the big house. {Good to know you are not trying to commit fraud, darlin. Just Kidding, honey! *smooch*}
• I am drinking the last of the coffee in the coffee pot left over from yesterday morning. It is still pretty good. I think it would be a crime to waste it. {ha. Crime. Good thing I didn't waste it, eh? Since the copper was at my door this morning. tee hee!}
• The marrieds were here yesterday. Well, they showed up late Saturday afternoon and spent the night. I had invited them for bbq on Saturday and then never heard from them until way late Friday night. I just figured they were not coming. Silly me. We had a nice evening Saturday. Ran a couple errands and then dinner at our Favorite Mexican Restaurant.
• Mr. Married installed my new lappy keyboard. Can you tell? I am typing hella fast now that I don't have to go back and hit the *N*, *T* or space bar numerous times. YaY! {TY darlin for sending me the new keys.lappy is fixed and nowhere near the cost of a new one.}
• A few weekends ago the girl and I sewed a very cute strapless dress. She had/has two weddings to attend in October and this dress fit the bill. Except for the strapless part. She discovered at the first wedding two weekends ago that the top was too loose. We added a strap to it this weekend and now it is perfect. She can dance at the wedding this next weekend and not worry about it falling down. LOL!
• I woke up @ 0300 this morning and discovered that the kid was still up. WTF? Then he went to bed and I couldn't go back to sleep. I am not fond of insomnia. And there is nothing on TV @ 0300. Just so you know.
• Big Bang Theory is on tonight @ 2130. I love that show!
• I need more coffee.

Monday Morning Mop-Up.

• I have been sick for a week. Enough already!
• Easter was low key and nice.
• I am too old to manage an entire day on only 3 hours sleep.
• My kitchen this morning is bathed in the sweet perfume of Easter Lilies.
• A big black cat just walked across my front porch. He isn't ours but we call him Midnight.
• This morning in under 5 minutes I paid all my bills for this month. YaY! for online bill-pay.
• My brother invited the fam up to his Events Center for Easter Brunch. Yummy goodness abounded.
• LDR's and major holidays do not mix well. {we are working on a solution}
• Big Bang Theory is on tonight. Not a repeat. Hurry up 8 PM!
• I received a bag full of Easter goodies complete with a pink foil wrapped Chocolate Easter Bunny for the first time {ever} since my momma stopped making me Easter baskets/treats.{ty, honey}
• My sister seems to have removed the stick. We had good conversation while sitting at the same table for brunch. I have been invited to come watch the little ones play t-ball/baseball on Sunday. I knew she would get over her fine self eventually. I never let her insanity stress me out for very long.
• I love sitting a my kitchen table and watching the bluebirds who grace my yard with their beauty.
• My web cam is craptastic. Ok, maybe not quite that bad and it does work well enough for skype. When you pay under $20 for a web cam you are getting a web cam that is worth under $20. I have had complaints. LOL! I figure blurry me is better than no me. {or even better depending on how I look} HA!
• I am addicted to coffee. I am sick and coffee does not sit very well. Without my coffee I am cranky and an plagued with headaches. How is this good? Have I mentioned I am addicted to coffee?
