riddled with bullets

August 14, 2008

  • I now have a laptop (thanks, Norma Jean!), love it.
  • Fluffy is now six. I feel eighty.
  • When we were in line at Safeway, I flipped through this week’s issue of People to find Donna. She looks great. Maybe I’ll give Wii Fit another try. I felt the need to look cool to the mom and son in line behind me so I sad to Fluffy “look, its Donna. I know her.” ( we all now reading a persons’ blog and replying on Twitter counts as personal acquaintance) She gave me the “what am I looking at?” face. I told her “she lost weight playing Wii Fit.” Then she replies “Oh, so she used to be fat and she got skinny playing Wii? huh.” At least the family behind me looked impressed.
  • Bear loves bagels. She won’t eat them until they are broken in half. She sets one half down while she eats the other. I keep finding half bagels in the dogs’ pens.
  • I have been trying to reply to your comments via email. For some dumb reason I set this plan into motion the week of my Build-A-Bear giveaway. 300 plus “Thanks for visiting Life On the Run” messages gets old fast.
  • I love last.fm
  • I put up fly and yellow jacket traps. The yellow jacket trap had claimed victims within 10 minutes. The fly one just makes my house smell like nasty sweaty gym locker underpants.
  • Check out my blogroll. Did I miss yours? Let me know mamikaze(at)gmail(dot)com.
  • I know you can’t wait to see what my finger looks like today. Click here, kidding.

I just hopped over from Krissi’s blog. I wanted to thank you at your eloquent attempt to explain to her why the misuse of the word “retard” is unacceptable. I attempted to explain it to her months ago, only to find that she gets more enjoyment at poking fun at others than listening to how her amusement can be hurtful.

I’m sorry your comment wasn’t received as it should have been.

I would like your permission to use your explanation in the future when having this conversation (I don’t like to quote people without permission). I end up having the discussion often, but am never able to explain as directly as you did.
