Ah....

Alrightly then! how were our respective week-ends? Good? Good. Mine was fabulous as well. We had a Big Girl sleep-over on friday night then did all the laundry in the world on Sat. before delivering her home via train circa late afternoon. Sundee, we wandered over to the Art and Soul thing in downtown Oakland with the Bees which was o.k. but seriously ... waaaayyyyy more expensive than last year in terms of stuff that had to be paid for (food, rides, etc.)... which kind of sucked. Then on Monday, got to hang out with the Big Girl for a tiny while in the morning (rocking the rockstar/dark glasses/big hair look, no less!) before hooking up with the GF and her fabulous big sister/FBS's a-dor-rable family unit who had the Spark with them for some lunch/a movie. Very nice. and seriously how cute is their little girl??? I miscalculated the timing of the movie though and ended up with some EXTREMELY tired little girls but all-in-all good times.

in other news, sad that our puppy know knows how to climb over his fence -- we got home Monday night to find a huge mess (involving torn up flower beds, two thoroughly destroyed featherdusters and a "check-in" from our very Sweet Landlady telling me the Biscuit had actually gotten all the way out into the street and had to be chased down by the LandLord -- also a very nice person.) and in the absence of me being able to immediately assemble a puppy proof enclosure, I had to tie him up. So, now he's tied up. Which is sad. I'm gonna try to set something up this week-end so he won't be chained up much longer. Still though. I feel bad.

Let's see.... what else. Chatted with the Texans yesterday. I believe there will be a visit soon (which I suppose is overdue since one of them has a Daddy who misses his little girl and the other should really be checking up more on his Angel-Sister and her entourage) and which i'm looking forward to (I think) ... I'm really tired these days though so maybe i will sit this visit out. (Not that you all are exhausting or anything...! :-]) we'll have to see.
