Fried Squirrel
We had a fried squirrel tonight. Not the edible kind with gravy on top, though. We had a fried squirrel who decided to hide his nuts in our power line pole and he blew out the fuse. LOL. I know. It is horrible that I think it is funny but after some wine with no electricity it is funny. Sorry PETA people.
After 2 hours and 3 glasses of wine waiting for the Cleco truck to get here - he does. Cheers go up ! We were at my poor neighbor’s house. They had electricity (and wine). The "power man" (woohoo) steps out of his truck, shines a flashlight up, and says "yep, you got a squirrel." OMG. That was the funniest thing I’ve heard in a week. (Probably just the wine, whatever). He shines his light upon a furry, little squirrel hanging over the power line and the power man blames it on the people who put the lines up after Katrina. I wanted to say "at least they got me power" but fortunately for me I kept my mouth shut.
I’ve had the absolute busiest 4 days in a row that I possibly could have and I came home tonight to a completely dark, black house. Not fun. It reminded me way too much of Katrina. (please place this thought above the last paragraph. I’m blaming it on the wine)
If I wasn’t so tired right now I’d write and tell about all the fun, busy stuff that has kept me occupied. I’m just too tired. Guess I’m not. Well, here are the highlights - dh won 1st place on his boat, I’ve been to 3 different kid parties, one really fun adult party(Jr League), one artsy adult party, watched LSU nerve-wrackingly lose yesterday, seen more boats than I care to, ate some really good food, spent a lot of money, and got a beatutiful pair of earrings. I think that about does it for the weekend. Whew. hehe. You know I’m happiest when I’m busiest.
I’m looking forward to a "marvelous Monday". I haven’t had one of those in a while. Where did my normal, boring, slow life go ?
