them *bleepbleepers* don’t know how to act.
Yes, I have that song stuck in my head now. I’ll start with the nice stuff so you can just jump over the cranky shit that’s coming up.

Saturday sky from the day I spent on the lake. Yes Carrie… that island looking thing is where Fat Dog’s is.

Despite Nora’s attempts to entice me with this cake recipe or the decadent chocolate cake she sent, I need a different recipe. I recently came into possession of an angel food cake pan. I’ve never made one before and I’m looking fro a tried and tested recipe from one of y’all.
Yes, I know there’s a big internet out there, but I’d like something you enjoyed.

Love is… a new .380. SWEET!

Now onto the things that are irritating me today. I was aiming for 10, but ended up with almost 30.
*ahem*
I’ll condense.
* * * * *
01. The fridge. Anything put anywhere near the freezer side of it freezes. Great for booze storage, not so much for food. I just lost some fresh green leaf lettuce to it. Plus, the ice maker doesn’t work so it’s just wasting space.
02. Mosquitoes, black carpenter ants and wasps
03. I want a washer and dryer. I’m tired of lugging everything to the freakin’ laundromat.
04. The DVD player that started eating discs. You have to unplug it and plug it back in for it to spit the disc out. No easy task because of where the plug is. I’d get a new one, but Texas has so many wires going everywhere for all of his electronic stuff, I wouldn’t know where to begin hooking it up.
05. The fact that I didn’t buy a bigger french press and that I probably should knit a cozy for the one I have. The hot pads and towels wrapped around it kind of suck.
06. That I let someone bring out the pettiness and anger in me. But I can’t tell them to piss off. And that I can’t just be me because I feel like I’m walking in a minefield blindfolded with them.
07. I want to take some trees down today – because destruction makes it all better – and I can’t because Texas doesn’t want me doing it alone.
Yeah, part of me feels like doing it anyway. I mean really. What’s he going to do about it? Spank me?
08. I want a cigarette so bad that I could kill someone.
09. We don’t have a grill. I want to grill. I want to taste meat that has been kissed by fire. And it’s frustrating because we can’t agree on one. What he can afford and what I can afford are two vastly different things. And I’m fiercely independent and I don’t want him just paying for it all.
10. The floppy… I can seriously condense this one. I can’t open the heavy sliding door with it, I can’t take the boat out today, I can’t mow, I can’t knit for long, I can’t dig a garden. I can’t … I can’t … I can’t. I’m so freakin’ tired of can’t. ARGH!
11. That there is no working light at the dock. I’d love to go down and fish when I can’t sleep, but a.) it’s a little bit of a rough terrain and b.) one word: snakes.
* * * * *
See… I did it!
I’ll try for some love tomorrow.
Maybe.
* * * * *
Happy Saturday, bitches?
