Photographic Memory: A Lame Post

Feeling puny today folks, so I'm gonna reduce the post to bullets. Lame, yes, but easy on the brain.

I am really feeling the tiredness and letdown of being home from vacation. I was glad to get home at first, but laundry and work have zapped that.
I need some chocolate milk in a bad way.
Why, dear GOD why, do they give kids so damn much homework? (Is it just here in America? Aly? Any comments?) The makeup work from last week is KILLING me us. (We took our daughter Carter out of school for the trip. Yes, yes, I know, it sounds terrible, but she's only in 2nd grade and I am SO not going to Florida in the dead of summer.)
I think I need a pain pill too. With a Valium. Yeah, that's the ticket.
And Christ on a crutch - why am I waking up in the morning 35 minutes before the alarm goes off? It is absolutely pointless to go back to sleep for 35 minutes but I feel cheated out of sleep if I get up earlier than planned.
Is it spring YET?
So damn hungry. Don't need to eat but want to very desperately.
The orchids went wild while I was gone. I have flowers everywhere. This is a good thing. I also went to an orchid greenhouse on our rainy day in Orlando - shock! - and bought a true purple vanda. (Imagine a wild looking plant in a hanging pot with no dirt - just fat, green roots hanging out everywhere with purple flowers the size of salad plates.)
The weather is beautiful here today. Yet it's due to get super cold just in time for the weekend! OF course!
I am so heartbroken watching Applesauce our store cat deteriorate. He is still not responding to insulin and now he is developing neuropathy in his back legs and fell yesterday tying to get in the litter box for the zillionth time. I am a sort of "get 'r' done" kind of gal when it comes to serious, incurable pet illnesses. I can not stand to see an animal suffer and sadly my friend Emily is "just not ready to let him go". I told her yesterday that her guilt and pain over not being able to save him needs to take a back burner to what is best for HIM.
My sister-in-law (the bad one) is still a bitch. Just sayin'.
Why do dumb-ass customers keep asking if I sell postage stamps? Do I have an invisible "United States Postal Employee" tattoo on my forehead that only idiots can see?
Head hurting. Either it's because I'm tired and worn out or it's because all I've done today other than help customers is surf the net and read Forever Amber archives. Either way, the Devil Bird post will have to wait.

As promised, here is the photo of me and Khyber the Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphin. I look shiteous but Khyber looks SO DAMN CUTE!

My friend's cat was doing the same thing. Lost use of his back legs and everything. After spending several thousand dollars trying to save him, they had to put him down anyway.

Great dolphin picture! Looks like fun.
