This last week has been more of a get things done week then anything else. I got my school books, had my car tuned-up, paid almost all my bills, and spent as little money as possible. This last Friday I took my little dog to the vet. I will call my little dog Winky in this blog because she looks alot like Winky in "Best In Show". She has lost 3lbs. in 2 months and the vet was very impressed and said, "it is like me losing 20lbs". Now just 5lbs. to go. Winky has allergies and like most dogs with allergies she gets itchy skin. The vet suggested benadryl and I picked up some generic benadryl at the store. My big dog who I will refer to as Big Loo(for obvious reasons to me) in this blog has allergies too, but unlike most dogs she gets the sneezies. Yesterday I gave them both the benadryl and we all layed down under the ceiling fan for a mid-afternoon nap. Feeling like a mom giving her kids dramamine before a trip, more for me, than for them. What a calm came over the place. Now only if the kitty, who I will refer to as Crazy in this blog, could have some too. Yesterday I took a late nite trip to the store, in the produce section I saw something called Grapple(TM). I thought this might be a new hybrid and/or a genetically altered fruit. It cost $4.99 for 4, so I decided it wasn't a good day to try it. When I got home I looked it up online and it was disappointing. A Grapple is an apple that is infused with grape juice. Last week I watched "Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory". A classic children's movie. I have extremely mixed feelings about a upcoming remake of this movie. In my time off I did get to the impressive teapot exhibit at the the uptown Mint Museum and while I was uptown I stopped at the big library to do a little genealogy research, since I didn't have any of my paperwork with me, I didn't get very far. I also saw Shrek II for free, and got a free CD of my vet's band.

P.S. I would like to be cloned.
