Here’s what I was going to post before it evaporated:
You know you’re well on your way to the nuthouse when you’re mixing chocolate pudding while woefully singing “It’s My Party And I’ll Cry If I Want To” at the top of your lungs in an operatic voice.
Another sign is that your husband is not fazed by this – he just joins in on the chorus.

Hello? Hello? Is this thing on? I made a post last night but it won’t show. Here is the placeholder. Somebody tell a joke. Or something that you’re doing right now.

Little Known Fact Day! Share something about yerself! For instance, I am a champion ring spinner, though I have yet to actually win an award. Also, I think too many green olives in a salad can ruin it. (I guess that’s an opinion, not a fact, but I’m going with it.)

A friend of mine threw herself a birthday party on a Saturday, and invited a bunch of people to Paint Yourself Silly in Lincoln. She’s got art running through her veins, and though I have coffee running through mine, I was up for something different! I was glad I went. They have many paintable things [...]

I like buying whole-leaf tea. I like the idea of not throwing out a tea bag, plus I like being able to see the whole leaf after brewing, (That last part doesn’t often happen, as I am very likely to leave the brewing tool sitting out for a day or so then I hastily smack [...]

Lloyd had two meetings to attend in Omaha today, and I’m always up for shopping in O-Town. I needed to buy some new shirts, as I have stained several beyond repair with delicious bacon grease. (Worth it.) His first meeting was at the Paxton in downtown Omaha. I returned from shopping to pick him up, [...]

So it wasn’t the loss of the post that caused you to cry (if you wanted to)?
No – just the plight of the girl in the song, plus my long day. But pudding was on the way, and that made it all better. (Well, for me. Not her.)
Visiting your website with my school laptop this morning caused my newly virus-free and restored computer to launch the security software, do a scan where it found four problems that had the words “trojan” and “worm” in them, then crash.
It might be that my laptop was not actually virus-free and that it was some innocuous thing that caused the scan to initiate at the moment I opened your site, but I’m just saying something about it in case it wasn’t a coincidence.
Er, sorry about that. Stay away, everyone!!! I don’t want your computers to die on my account!! We’ve either got a mindless virus or a mean person behind this, so keep yourself safe.
….John what’s-his-face?
Mine didn’t do anything weird this morning… And it has for the past three mornings, so I’m data on the virus-free side…
And I want to frame that drawing, because I love it so.
Is that an apron you’re wearing or overalls? Either way, I like the look.
Sing on, sister.
Okay… I’m pretty sure it was just my computer. Somehow I got one of those malware programs that diguises itself as virus protection software. Not knowing the name of the software our IT guy is using, I thought it was a real warning. He has removed the malware and I think I’m back to my old new computer. Yay! (The new old computer has been driving me crazy!)
