Diane: the bible?
Aaron: no, it's something called "How to Dominate and Overpower your wife"

Ode to Scratchy

For several months, we were haunted by the pitter-patter of little feet and scratchy noises emanating from the attic. We thus fondly referred to the unknown thing as Scratchy. Aaron, as landlord, called up the "Critter Catchers" to determine the nature of the problem (i.e raccoon, chipmunk, wolverine...) and through close examination of its excrement, they deduced the animal to be a squirrel.

For an extra $50-charge they would've caught the creature, but Aaron figured he could do it himself (of course). And he did successfully trap it: he blocked its passage to the outside resulting in its untimely demise right above our bedroom. (quite melodramatic and vengeful for a rodent)

When springtime came, the lengthened days saw to the thawing of the ice and to the decomposition of Scratchy's body as well; and the home that had once been cured of Scratchy's careless dance moves now endured the wrath of his rancid ghost.

Enter: the Fellowship, nay, the Order of the Dead Squirrel (move over ghostbusters). They are an elite force that would banish the odor of destruction and decay, literally.
(That's my husband on the left wearing my swimming goggles as part of his uniform)

I came back to yoga class today, I did much better than day 1...
They'd asked us to close our eyes, relax and breathe deeply: I awoke to find the others in the perched egret position.

At least I didn't drool or meow in my sleep.

Revealing what's within

My titas from the States came to visit and they stayed in my room so my mom had it thoroughly cleaned--changed my bed, added new furniture and fixed my mess by placing them in boxes. So anyway, the aunts have come and gone and i am now staying in my refurbished bedroom and while i was dressing up this morning, i accidentally glanced at my newly organized bookshelf. I noticed an unfamiliar book between my Paulo Coelhos and advertising books. To my chagrin, it was 'Finding the boyfriend Within!!!" It was neatly stored in my shelf for the past 3 months! Ever since my aunts stayed in my room!

I knew it i should have burned that book years before! CURSES POOX O KEEFE!!!! CURSES!!!!!!!!!

by the way poox, i just checked, there was no dedication so it really looked like i bought it myself. Hahahaha.
