Friday's Stream Of Consciousness

My friend just got a beautiful tattoo of angel wings on her back. Gorgeous. It reminds me that I really wanted to get a tattoo for my fou---ahem-- ahem--- cough-- ith birthday. My birthday was in November. Am I going to do this or not? Seeing her tattoo reignited my desire. I just don't know what to get. Or where to get it. Figuring these things out WOULD help.

CB's breath smells exactly like a watermelon-scented car air freshener. That is because she just ate one.

My husband never has bad breath in the morning. Is that just freakish or what? Mine on the other hand is absolutely horrible. That's what I get for maintaining a fluid intake restricted to coffee and diet Pepsi.

Should I call poison control? Not for the coffee and diet Pepsi, but the whole eating an air freshener thing. (Though, my level of aspartame consumption should be run by a professional.) She didn't technically EAT it, just chewed it up into a raggedy pulp.

How long do ground hogs live? We have a "pet" groundhog that lives in our backyard behind our shed. He's been here for almost 4 years. But, I'm really obsessed with knowing if it's the SAME ground hog we see every spring, or a different one. I mean, what's the life span of these dudes? I'm not even sure if he's a ground hog or beaver. He sports a beaverish tail, but there is no water near us. I'm pretty sure they can't function without building a dam. It's like CB's stimming. There's a gravitational pull to do it. He'd be totally out of his element without water.

Regardless, he's some rolly polly large brown mammal and we love love him. We call him Fred.

we called ours Grubby, his wife, Grunella and his kid, Grubulin!! I think life span is 8 years. If you need info re; tattoos, tap into Bad Cripple aka William Peace (side bar on my blog)..he specializes in that, knows a ton and live in N.Y. Love your posts.

Ok, you know that morning breath that's so bad, that when you roll over and say "Good Morning" all sexy (ok TRYING to be sexy), you see smoke because you just scorched your spouses eyebrows off cause its so rank..yeah!! I got that going..my husband's face looks like he just seen a ghost. (pause to imagine that one)...
I really wish something would live behind my garage..but I think the animal kingdom has put out a memo on the 2 year old. We had a guinea pig once, and she loved it so "hard" I had to give it away to my brother...On the way out the door I swear the hairless guinea pig (who was not that way to begin with) mouthed "Thank you women" and flipped off the 2 year old!

Oh, it's the same little bastard all right. We had one living in our yard at our last house. We owned the lot next to our house, which we paid big bucks to clear and sod. The day after the project was completed, the little bastard dug a hole and started to rebuild. I chased his chunky butt, but soon realized that the one hole he dug was going to be it, so from then on we lived together in harmony.


We moved a couple years later, but I'll bet that chunky mofo is still takin' up residence.

OMG! You and your groundhog rock! I just outlined my next blog. Can't wait to write it. Thanks for the inspire!

Go for the tattoo. I waited until I was 40 years old too. Tattooists like people like us--we are mature, reliable clients, and know how to tip. Seriously, to be happy with a tattoo you need to do a lot of research and visit multiple studios.

I don't think her chewing on an Air Freshner is so bad that you have to call poison control. Jules ate desitin once and Jack said "I remember when my neice did that...just give her milk she'll be fine." and she was, lol!

I have thought about a tattoo, but the idea of having something on me that I could never get off just always made me stop and think about it one more time. Needless to say, I am still thinking.
