Our Blog Is Failing Our 7 Followers

So I signed on today realizing that I haven't posted since June! This is a disservice to our 7 followers. Maybe we will be able to keep up with it now that summer seems to be over. Summer must be over seeing as it isn't even 70 degrees outside today. So i am now going to attempt to make this post my summer wrap up to catch everyone up on where life is at the moment.

Months ago I posted about Wolfgang the super dog who can't be killed by ordinary means. Well he escaped from our yard in late May and is still on the lamb. Rob checks the pound for him regularly but no sign of the little devil. At this point I have to believe someone has taken him in and he is bringing someone else his own special brand of happiness. So much for microchips in dogs working.

I am still attending trapeze class every week which I love. Side effects from that have been increased upper body strength, I'm back to wearing a size 8 jeans, calluses on my hands, bruises on the backs of my knees, bruises on the tops of my feet, one ripped open blister on my hand (no make that 2), and finding out that I can actually climb a rope. However, due to all the strange bruises one of the guys I work with was joking around about me needing the number to a women's shelter.

Another interesting moment of the summer was just this past weekend at Kerri's block party. This so highlights my lack of a maternal instinct (speaking of maternal instinct, if I lost a dog imagine what would happen to a child). In order to get her cute little boy down the block I was waving a bowl of chips in front of him (I use this technique to get my dog into her gated area at night) and then later I referred to him as a puppy. Yep, I have trouble distinguishing kids and puppies.

The final part of this post about me is that I am looking for a new job. I'm bored and annoyed with mine and after I find something else there will be many more entertaining things to post here about my place of employment. But, I refuse to be one of those people you hear about who writes all kinds of things about their job online and then they are surprised when someone they work with sees it and they get fired for it. So any job stories will have to wait for future posts.

Last thing I would like to mention here is my personal medical opinion on Michael Jackson. Not that I particularly liked or disliked him, but this whole death situation has fascinated me from a sick twisted medical perspective. What doctor in their right mind thought you could give someone valium, ativan, versed and then top it off with propofol and then expected their patient to live? That's enough drugs to kill a horse. I truly believe Michael Jackson had insomnia and a lot of people under estimate insomnia and don't treat it enough. But you don't give a person the drugs that you would normally use to knock a person out for say a hip replacement just so they can take a nap. His doctor deserves to go to jail not for killing him, and certainly not for what the police were saying at one point which was "giving drugs to an addict". He needs to go to be prosecuted for stupidity.

So to our 7 blog followers and whoever else happens to read this, happy rest of summer!
