Mondays should be outlawed.  I don’t know why I am so tired today.  I slept well enough last night.  I guess the lack of full sleep on Thursday is catching up with me.

It is back to the ol’ routine of housework and yard work. How can four people produce so much laundry in just seven days?

Yep, I forgot to use sunscreen yesterday and I was out in the sun all day.  Lucky for me I don’t tend to burn (the UV rays have to make their way through my thick covering of fur and usually get lost on the way) and I’ll have a slight tan later in the week.

This is what happens when you have nothing to blog about, you blog about sunburns.

I don’t believe it. I actually got a day to myself to just do what I want! I took in a local college baseball game after doing some window shopping (I’m looking to buy a riding lawnmower) and went so far as to get some stadium food. You parents out there will appreciate how precious is a little “me” time.

Too bad there is nothing on TV tonight.

Yes, to all those who have asked, I did take a group of kids to an event 200 miles from home and brought them back in one day. Some of us can keep teens occupied while not seeming to be some kind of clueless adult trying to be hip. Believe it or not (I’m walking on air) teen girls can speak softly and be content on long road trips. I know, I was shocked that the trip went without a hitch and that request have been made for me to chaperone other events in the future… I just don’t know if I can handle getting up at 2 am to go on a trip at 4 am.

No, I was not at work today. I volunteered (or rather was volunteered) to chaperone or mentor some teens from my daughter’s class to a Brave’s baseball game today. The day went okay, I had no complaints, I’m just tired from all of the activity… keeping the kids safe and in line, covering the event, and making the 400 mile roundtrip drive which started at 4 am. I’m going to bed now.

That’s Entertainment!

1. If you could give out Best Picture, Best Actor/Actress and Best Director Oscars to any movies (not necessarily all from the same year) to people/films that haven’t won, what would they be?
I really don’t know. I don’t put much stock in the Oscars or any movie awards for that matter.

2. What is your favorite genre of writing (short stories, novels, nonfiction…)?
Horror.

3. Are there any CDs to which you know every word? Movies?
CD’s – most of the stuff by Queen, Megadeath, Metallica, and Ministry. Movies – Clue, Young Frankenstein, Hot Fuzz.

4. If you could write and cast your own movie, what would it be about and who would you cast?
Actually I am writing the screenplay/script to my own movie and I already have a female lead in mind – Sofia Smirnova.

5. What’s the best song to wake you up? Put you to sleep?
This is gonna sound bad, but I like “Walking on Sunshine” by Katrina and the Waves to wake up to and “Sleep Baby Sleep” from the movie Sleepstalker: The Sandman’s Last Rites to go to sleep.

After all the flooding we had over the past two weeks, it goes and rains yet again…. a big ol’ storm with lots of water Monday and the rivers went back up to flood stage if for only a few hours. 

I will be out of town Thursday and I’ll be going to the Brave’s game as a chaperone for my daughter’s class which means no texting, no IM’s, no computer access all day. Being a computer/Internet junkie this going to be difficult.  So if you don’t see me on the IM you’ll know were I’ll be… either on the road with a bunch of bored teenagers or at a baseball game with a bunch of bored teenagers.  I am really looking forward to that 6 hour round trip.

We really need to come up with some holiday after major holidays.  Having a holiday on Sunday makes you exhausted on Monday when you really need to get things done. I have so much to do today that I did not get done yesterday because it was Easter.
