Blessed are the Girl Scouts
An adorable girl scout just came by my desk to deliver unto me the most holy and sacred of snacks – The Girl Scout Cookie! I had placed an order a month or so ago, when her mom, an employee here, had put the order form out in our lounge. But never did I expect the boxes to be hand delivered! By a red headed moppet who is missing her front teeth, no less.
Which reminds me… I want to be 8 years old again. Yesterday was the birthday of another coworkers daughter, her 8th. This happens to be one of my favorite of coworker kids, I’ve known her since she was a little toddler thing. Her mom, one of my many ex-bosses here at my P.O.E., had an office full of toys I was looking through yesterday. And I have to say, I wanted to take home each and every one. The Easy Bake Oven, the Hot wheels Starter Kit, the art supplies… all of it. The new bike her grandma got her, which was not in the office. Why can’t I be 8 years old again? Actually, can I just be my age, but have the toys? it would be SoooOOOOoooo Fun!
50 Word Fiction Fridays Vol. 45
I took a different belly dancing class with a different teacher this week. And I different Kirsten, for that matter, I went with coworker KK. You can never have too many belly dancing Kirstens in your life. This class was longer, the teacher was better, the results were sweatier. We worked harder and I ended up with more sore more muscles. I am going to stick with this class, as I like the teacher better. My cousin Kirsten is going to join us next week. I’ll be surrounded by Kirstens!
I’m a bit slow on the 50 word fiction this morning, I’ve been posting at Satan’s Bookclub. Yes! I have! Just a couple of newsy bits, but I’ve been missing the place lately, and wanted to give it some of my attentions. Which is this mornings theme… are there things or people in your life who need your attention?
Kitten Communication
She woke with a snort, unable to breath, feeling of panic in her chest. Sitting up quickly, she dislodged the cat from her face.
“Well, you wanted my attention, you have it now.”
Sitting at the foot of the bed, everything in the cat’s serene posture said “breakfast time!”
I got 8 slappin’ pistons right here under my hood
I just watched the Dukes of Hazard movie on the DVD player and now I am worried that I am going to slip into an Oklahoma accent right here. Hopefully, that goes away over night.
In the mean time, I am in the mood for some S.C.O.T.S and thought I'd share it with ya'll.

I’ve given the old Winter theme the heave-ho. It’s March now. And while technically, not Spring, I was ready for some color. There was some concern, amongst the test subjects, that the flowers were too happy to adequately represent my spirit de blog. It was Paco who had the idea of giving one flower a bad attitude to rectify that issue.
A new design to prove to everyone that I have not truly joined the myspace world. Even tho, I do enjoy getting the new friend pictures. I have seven friends! And only two are related to me! I just know I’ll get a date to the prom soon!
