Top 10 List

 
Tipsy blogging is allowed, right?! 

1) I have been dealing with inept hospital billers.  They billed me.  We negotiated.  I paid.  They rebilled me at a higher rate.  I called to straighten things out.  They avoided my calls.  DRINK!

2) My grass is dying.  I have tried to revive it.  Sweet talk it.  Water it.  But it cannot fight the heat of this most unbearable summer.  Me.  I said unbearable heat.  Lizard Rock Girl.  The heat is trying to kill all of us.  HALP!  Send rain.

3) The Summer of Cake produced chocolate cupcakes this week.  To quote Boy: These are the best chocolate cupcakes I have ever had. ( do i need to say he has had many many cupcakes over the course of his life?!)  Nephew: These cupcakes are soooo good.  Me: Holy crap!  ~swoon~  I have found the nirvana of recipes.  Sorry, no pics.  You will just have to trust me on this one.

4) For the first time in his life, Boy had to wait on me to get home when he came to visit.  He was in the driveway, with the garage door open, sitting in a lawn chair, eating watermelon that he found in the garage fridge.  He gave me such grief.  I knew he was coming.  I was at an old family friend's parent's house visiting (they had come in from out of town unexpectedly).  We overestimated how long it would take Boy to arrive.  We weren't home when he got here.  WE WERE 5 MINUTES LATE.  Bunny was obviously traumatized. 

5) The government is trying my last nerve.  I'll end there.  Go to WONK if you need more.  Eesh.

6) I have sinned.  I mixed the tiny remainder of a white wine with a bit of a new red.  Delicious, but if the wine snobs find out they may take away my bottle opener.

7) Best movie I have seen in awhile: Defiance.  Rent it.  Netflix it (that's what i did).  It's about the persecution of Jews during WWII.  Yet, instead of being a downer, it is an upper*.  Here's a taste from the Netflix site: "Daniel Craig stars as Tuvia Bielski, one of four Jewish brothers who escape from Poland into the forests of Belarus during World War II to lead a band of resistance fighters and create a safe haven for Jewish refugees. The real-life sanctuary established by the Bielski brothers saved more than 1,000 Jews from persecution and death."

8) I am eating Red Snapper from the gulf today.  BIL caught it, grilled it, and gave it to me.  Man, you can't beat that.

9) I finally delivered the moonshine that has been sitting in my fridge for the last few months.  Real honest to goodness moonshine.  Don't ask and I won't tell.

10) The Tiny Pool is STILL NOT UP.  The hottest summer in years is upon us and no pool.  Yet, I have had numerous umbrelly drinks.  Somehow it evens out.  (but the tiny pool is going up this week.  word.)





*Michael Jackson approved lingo.

wine snobs - ptht. I say, flaunt it in their faces. They're annoying anyway.


And if you see that rain, send 'er here. I called first!

I can only imagine how hot it must be in SAT. It's almost unbearable here in Houston and it's always worse there.  We have been racking our brains trying to figure out how to get to some water this weekend without sharing it with the rest of the city. We did have some rain last night - about 5 minutes of it but even that made the grass perk up a little.
