It's Been Awhile....

I realize my lack of posting probably indicates that I have no life, or I have such a life that I don't post every time I take a shit...which would be more than you, dear readers, would care to hear about I'm sure. I have been busy. Yes, my job does require some work, a lot of travel and listening to whiny brats tell me why their credit is shot. So where did we leave off? I believe I was about to go on vacay away from this stressful thing I call life. Went away we did, the girls and I to a mountain escape about 1o minutes away from home. Not quite the cozy cottage we thought it would be, as it came with the feeling someone got booted out for the weekend and forgot to vacuum up after their cat. The crisp mountain air made for a particularly dry throat in my mind and I drank a whole bottle of rum (a 40 i believe they are nicknamed) and a bottle of diet pepsi. This led to some antics that are fondly remembered on Nah's camera and will never be posted on this site as I don't want to lose any respect you may have had for me. My war cry was "I have a stressful job" and that was the cue to drink the troubles away. I vaguely remember a pinata, a pregnancy test and being awoken to strategically placed chocolate covered strawberries and someone trying to takeaway my blown up condom I was cuddling.
That was vacation. So now the filler. Dogs have eaten and destroyed house many times over, most notably eating 2 litres of molasses on my beautiful white and blue carpet. You'd think I 'd have a funny diarrhea story to follow but they both seem to have digested it fairly well. We completed a renovation in our front porch, which is now the dog room when we go away. I got the couch of my dreams and now it smells like wet beagles. We found out a neighbour who owns a patch of land in front of us is looking to develop and sell and I am doing everything in my power to stop it. Buying it would probably be easiest. My car is dying a fast death. The trunk no longer closes, the thing eats a quart of oil every 200 km, the tires are bald and studded and illegal this time of year, the bearing that hold that stinking wheel on is about to come off if I go over 100km, and it just plain smells bad now and is so filled with junk I am actually embarrassed to drive it.
In conclusion, car sucks, work is busy, Donald has a new job and is home all the time, dogs are assholes, and it's vacation next week!!!!!
