And I haven't posted since Monday?
The week clearly flew by, and apparently I was barely sentient while it all happened. It's funny how sometimes you have so much to say your brain almost explodes. And then . . . nothing. At least there's weather to speak of this morning. Snow and the wind just whipping it all into your face. We aborted our morning walk halfway through and came home where I have since consumed a can of Dr. Pepper while trying to write but mostly (instead) watching a flock of Cedar waxwings (joined by several party-crashing robins) eat the red berries of the Hawthorne tree outside my window.
Even if everything else goes to hell from here on out, the day will have been a good one because of this quiet view.

Wherein I give an example of irony
So yesterday I discovered one of my parakeets had gotten her talon wedged between a cage bar and the water dish. In a frantic effort to free herself, she broke her leg . . . poor thing. I managed to set the bird free (it wasn't easy! there was blood! mine!) and immediately rushed her to the vet to see if he could do something for her.
Anyway, on my trip to the vet's where I would possibly spend a billion dollars to save a parakeet, I made a mental list of all the crap I had to do yesterday, including meal preparation and I decided to make . . . you know . . . a chicken dish for dinner.
Oh, America. What a country you are!

really?
we spent the weekend in st. george where (among other things) we went to barnes and noble. i noticed a book on the sale table called CAN YOU HAVE TOO MUCH SEX and suddenly i started wondering who would pick up a book like that in public with everybody watching. like there are just some books YOU ARE NOT GOING TO THUMB THROUGH WHEN YOU'RE WITH YOUR HUSBAND AND SON. even if you sort of want to.
meanwhile we ate at in n' out. also the sun was shining and when i went on all my walks i heard birds and bullfrogs so yes virginia! spring is coming!

here's another hard thing to do when your fingers are in a cast
flip people off
which i pretty much wanted to do today
but no one would have noticed
and i had to use the other hand to drive
