I know, I know....It's just not funny!

Blogging just isn't a priority right now. I'm giving a hand in caring for my mother in law, post heart surgery, trying to figure out how to get rid of the last of our Wii games with so much competition on eBay, working 43 hours a week at work, and managing to keep the house *somewhat* clean, while doing the normal errands and stuff.

Shawn's mother is doing great, but still cannot do for herself. Among everything, we're both trying to keep peace in the family and somehow managing to avoid WWIII and a silent take over.

I've been cooking more than I like to in the throws of summer, but Marge is enjoying it, I think. "It's not the food," I told Shawn, "it's the fact that someone else cooked it. Food always tastes better when you're not the cook!"

I explained to Marge that I'm having difficulty cooking healthy. My own mother grew up on a farm where she learned to cook heavy, hearty meals where most everything is battered and served with gravy! I also learned to cook in this manner. But I've learned a great deal about masking veggies and toning down spices as to not give my poor mother in law heart burn!

When I do get spare time, I spend it with Shawn. We are inseparable when we get time together, which is awesome after being together for so many years.

I am spending a tiny bit of time working a new video. I can't explain the details, but it will be very funny. I have many DVDs to go through and perhaps by the time I'm done, things will be settled down & I'll be able to put all my clips together for the grand premiere on YouTube.

Sure, I had a ton of things to write about, like how our local newspaper's front page featured cats (cats! Isn't there a war somewhere in the world?) and the never ending construction in the city--which I believe is to make it appear like Austin, TX. Never ending construction is a good start if they want the city to look like Austin.

I doubt I'll get around to these stories any time soon. In the mean time, perhaps I'll write a blip here and there about everything that is wrong with this world and it's gas prices, like this one:

My boss got a scooter. He pulled up, wearing a silver helmet, looking EXACTLY like Jim Carrey and says to me, "I've got room for one more if you're going to Aspen."

HA HA!! I, in turn, replied: "Just go man, just go."
