This is me still being Madly In Love

I can't get over my huge crush on K'Naan's music. K'Naan I looooooooooove you!!!!!!!!

Here's another song--this one about what it's like waiting for a desperately needed money transfer from someone who's helping you out; and then turns to how he can now transfer money back to his grandmother; and it ends with "shout outs" to people who financially helped him out in hard times.

No wonder when you look at the comments people leave for K'Naan on youtube, they're all about how he's saving rap music from a surplus of thug culture.

...And if you think it isn't fun to sing "you can pick it up toDAY it's fifteenminutesawAY" while trotting home from work, well, then you iz foolin' yourself.

Metrosexual bug

The midges are disappearing--there's way less of them hanging in the kitchen tonight. But my computer was just assaulted by an earwig, and now some other 6 legged dude is sitting on the top corner of my screen cleaning his (or her) antennae.

Slowly... like a cat. He slowwwwly runs his hands along an antennae, then quickly rubs his palms together, and does it again. The antennaes... they must be cleans!! All the while perched on his other 4 legs.

Now it looks like he's tapping his foot to the John Mellencamp playing.

Now he's feeling out the air with his super cleans antennae.

library-ific

Jut noticed the other day that my library purchased the complete Sandman collection (Neil Gaiman.) Yoicks! Even though I've cut myself off from buying books... I'm still not exactly ripping through my collection of unreads, since I've been back to the library. I'm reading the entire Georgia series, and this time took out 2 graphic novels too! Woe is moi.

Good news is, once the winter weather sets in I abandon the library. Just never feel like leaving the house in cold weather.

Love Song of the Day: How can I edit my story when I need to tell you how much I LUB this song??

Haley catches a moth on the window screen. Then it's "nom nom nom" like a lolcat.


(I've taken to sitting here at the kitchen table, editing my book. ...Though tonight I've just been reading Georgia. Time to stop.)

Me and Midge

OK I was wrong about the spiders--they're definitely still hanging out, and are fatter than ever. Though none so fat as the ones who used to live outside my parents' home by the water, in Ile Perrot. One was so fat, I got paint on his body when painting the house; and next summer I was strolling past the house, and stopped... because there was my spotty-painted spider. That's the equivalent to me getting a glob of paint over one fifth of my body, and having to live that way. You'd think it would do something to a little spider dude... make him too heavy or something.

And those aren't male mosquitos--they don't have little furry noses. And they are definitely green. What is they?? ... ... I am back from Google Land. They are green midges! So cute and non-annoying, the little midgee-poos.

Georgia hears a ring at the door

It might be kitty trouble, because I don't know where the furry psychopath twins are (Angus and Gordy.) ...Oh God, if it is the cat vigilante group bringing the lads home on an assault charge, I'll go ballisticimus, if I have the energy.
