Got up, which really hurt because of yesterday's trip to the gym, so I went into the bathroom for some ibuprofen, but then decided to get dressed before leaving the bedroom -- which is where all my clothes are -- so I went to the closet. That's when I noticed it was sunny, so I thought, "shorts" and went over to where I stored them last winter, under the bed. Then I saw my old flip-flops and thought "first flip-flops of 2010." Put them on and remembered I didn't have shorts on yet, so I took them off and picked out my gray shorts and started for the bathroom. Turned around for the flip-flops, put them back on and made a mental note to clip my toenails. Accidentally kicked Snow Bear, who was on the floor. Put Snow Bear on the bed. Headed out of the bedroom, but turned around because I might as well make the bed before leaving the room. Made the bed.
What was I going to get from the bathroom...
Right, toenails. Wondered why they call flip-flops "thongs". Decided it might be because of the little strap that goes between your toes, like that part of a thong that goes between the, well, you know where it goes. Why am I in the bathroom? I need some caffeine if I'm gonna get this day rolling. Went to the kitchen, grabbed the tea kettle, and went to the sink to fill it. Sink was already filled with dishes. Did some dishes and went to the TV to see where today's bomb blast was and what Martha was doing with potted plants this morning. Should I move the plants into the sun. Yes. Plants need water. Man do they need water. Why can't I keep a plant alive for more than half an hour. If I were a farmer in the middle ages, I would die. Maybe I'd be a blacksmith instead of a farmer, they don't have to till fields and they get to stoke fires. I'm a pretty adequate fire stoker.
Why am I holding this plant? Right, water. Went to the kitchen for water, and remembered I was gonna make tea. Filled the kettle and started boiling water. Where's my blue mug? Bedroom. Why did I have it in the bedroom? Turned off the fan I'd left on, grabbed my blue mug, and returned to the kitchen. watered the plant, but had to set it down because the water was boiling. Made tea and brought it out to watch Martha pot some plant with a celebrity. Is that the guy from V? What else was he on? Right: Party of Five. That was a stupid show.
No, you know what show was stupid? 7th Heaven. That show made me want to enlist, just because I'm pretty sure Iraqi's don't have shows about American ministers and their huge dumb families. And what was with the herd of children? Same thing with Party of Five, Eight is Enough, Malcolm in the Middle: tons of kids on any show about a family. You only get three or fewer kids if the show is about multiple families (Parenthood, Modern Family, etc.). Either way, I think Hollywood understands that we need a bare minimum of 4 kids. 5 is better.
Why am I still sore? That ibuprofen should have kicked in by now. Aw crap.
