I appreciate you sitting tight while I re-create my blog (and pardon the old/broken-ness of this current one).

Don’t Come Home Without Chocolate

What greater way to prepare for our first vacation in 6 months than with a last-ditch effort to clean up our place before we abandon it for five days.  Not only does this interrupt my finishing of the third Harry Potter book in a week, but it just sucks.

So OCD has kicked in, and we know that coming home to a dirty house next Tuesday after 7 hours in the car would probably result in this kind of brawl.  And what better way to top of a successful cleaning up than having the cat knock over a plant onto a floor I finished vacuuming less than an hour ago.

Now hold it right there.  That last sentence says a lot.  1) I vacuumed, which is a rarity in itself.  2) The recency of this rarity should have resulted in the immediate disposal of The Most Annoying Cat In The World, because there is no other way to clean up some freshly watered soil and plant crap than with a vacuum.  Again.

At 8 o’clock.

After Jonah has fallen asleep.

And of course this happens when Megan is out doing bidness. Something random and stupid like this always happens when she leaves me alone for more than 10 minutes.   But she came home with a half pound Hershey’s bar, which is waiting for me right….over…there…

    Sorry about the cat incident. I’m glad to see you blogging again, though. Hope the chocolate made it all worth it and that your vacation is treating you well.

    I’m setting Chandra up with a wordpress.com site for his research. It’s not the prettiest, but it’s totally doing everything he needs it to do. Sweet. mvschandra.wordpress.com.
