Life and Mists
Lacey is my giddy, girly buddy at ISR. The two of us rant, ramble, babble and giggle on about the silliest of things. But there are many times when Lacey tells stories about her home life that make my sides hurt from laughter. Two cases in point for yesterday.
1) Lacey told us about something her son Trystin did over the weekend. She said that he told his dad that he was writing a letter ‘to the fairies’. Of course, the kid had me at ‘a letter to the fairies’. But it gets better. Evidently, Trystin had a cat named Milo some time ago. And this Milo went missing. So Trystin had thought up this idea to write a letter to the fairies and ask them if they would mind checking on Milo wherever he was. He wanted to tell Milo that he missed him very much and he hoped he was happy and not dead. Ok, now this is a kid that I could really get along with.
2) Secondly was the cake. Ok, so not only are we (evidently) throwing Lacey a party, but she’s gonna be having one for herself at home. So, her hubby, Justin, tells her to go ahead and order her own cookie cake because he’s gonna be on his motorbike so he can’t very well pick it up or anything. Of course, Lacy thinks this is kinda …’frou-frou’ but it’s not like there’s anything she can do about it. So, Lori and I hear this and we tell her, “You know what? Since you’re ordering the cake, you should put something like ‘All Hail Queen Lacey’ or ‘Happy Birthday Queen Lacey’ on it!” She loved the idea! So now she’s gonna have a cake at her party tomorrow (at home at least) that’ll be all ‘happy birthday Queen Lacey’!
What else is there to talk about…? Oh yes! I almost forgot. I watched The Mists of Avalon the other night...gotta say: didn’t love the whole mover over-all, but there were several interesting spots here and there. For one thing movies full of gloom, despair, agony, arranged loveless marriages, incest and other such things are not my cup of tea to start out with. Though I do like the way the movie showed the original Christian, Pagan and Catholic religions. Especially showing how the Catholic religion was a lot like mixing Druid and Christian religions. Maybe I haven’t grown up enough yet, but in any movie in which there are more than a handful of characters and only one or two live (and even then do not necessarily live happily) is not a movie in which the ends justify the means.
Each day that passes, I try to clean a bit more than the day before because I know that ComCast will be coming in here on the 14th and I really want my room to be at least partially decent...which is quite a feat, I can assure you. But, alas, I don’t seem to be making much of a dent. Aye, there aren’t pillows and books and blankets all over the floor anymore, but all the tables and everything look just as bad as they did before. The down-side of picking stuff up off of the floor is you have to put it somewhere...and that’s what tables and such are for right? I’ll really crack down on it tomorrow. For now though, I’m just too tired.
Oh...I’ve such a sinus headache. What with the weather’s constant change, I can’t seem to get inoculated. Last week were in the mid 50’s. Then Friday we were in the 40’s. Saturday saw the 50’s again, Sunday it was in the 60’s and now we’re in the 70’s! Honestly! And they wonder why people can’t seem to get well =_= Oh well.
That’ll be all for now. We’re about to have Lacey’s birthday lunch and then have her surprise cake. I brought my camera, so I’m hoping I’ll have pictures up on my FaceBook later. Ja!
