A little absent (minded)...

Wait, what?  Just kidding.  My sweetheart, (from this day on he will be called Mr. Stubborn) has been ill.  Ill enough to take himself to his bedroom across the hall Thursday evening.

And there he's been, except for his sneaking out of his bedroom to do things I'd prefer him not to do when he's sick,  like emptying the dishwasher, folding towels, getting a snack...and doing things he shouldn't even be worried about, like the litter box.  I told him the first day to stay in his room and not germ up the house.  Then he has the nerve to say, "I hope you don't get this."

In my trying to take care of him, all he's done is piss me off & put me in a cranky ass mood.

So...I'm not saying another word to him.  We've been cooped up in here since Friday...well, I "got" to get out of the house to go to the grocery store this morning.  While I was gone he was all over this place.

I have kept myself occupied, during this duration, by watching LOST and making critters.  I know there's at least one new picture up there.  I'm trying a new technique with the eyes, which led to new ideas and techniques in my mind...

He just slipped down the hall again.  I'm going to shut my door a little bit so I don't have to see him when he comes back through.  And then I'm going to finish up a couple of critters, and hopefully my head will not explode before the end of this day.

Sleeping

I've not been sleeping well the last few nights.  Maybe staying up too late?  Maybe sleeping to late in the morning (8:00 ish)?  Maybe what I watch before I go to bed, maybe what I listen to while I sleep?  I am not doing anything out of the ordinary.

Does it drive you crazy when someone has earbuds in and you can still hear what they are listening to?  That drives me crazy.  CrAzy.  cRaZy.

These are the times when I repeat to myself, "I love him."

My brain says one thing, my heart says another?

My Chihuahua is bored.

She has done nothing for the past two days but lay on the bed and watch me sit here in my chair working on a Critter, or computering, or something...she got crazier than a cootie last night about 10:00, so I know she's going berserk in her little Chihuahua head.

I tried to take her with me to the post office today, but she was not interested.

Today, I am taking her for a walk.  The sun is shiny, the wind isn't blowy, a brisk walk around the block would do us both a world of good.

My darling Karma Carmella

Oh yeah, she was all, "yeah, let's go, come on, come on, come on..." and she made it all the way around the block (1/4 mile), only trailing a little bit there at the end, it's a little incline for you and me, but for a dog that is 6" at the shoulder, it's a pretty big incline.  ;)

We may go again, it is a pretty day.  

Guinea Pig I finished last night.
