My Weekend

This Saturday my ex came up for a visit. He offered to help me with some chores around my place that required either a.) heavy lifting or b.) the use of tools. For the most part this wouldn't be too note worthy, except for two things.....

1. I discovered I do in fact scream like a girl at the site dead animals. I honestly thought I was cool, too. About 4 years ago while getting out of my ex's car, I discovered a live snake within a matter of a few feet from me. He was arched up and looking directly at me. I did not scream. I was cool, calm and collected. This weekend, while assembling shelves in the garage, I discovered a dead frog. I had good reason to believe it was dead too, since I could hardly make out what it was because of the decomposition. I screamed. I even did a little dance, no joke.

2. While driving back from dinner Saturday night, it occurred to me that my ex may want to see my niece. I say this because next to mom and dad, he might be her favorite person. He certainly has me beat, but then again he bribes her with m&m's. I digress. He was excited at the possibility. When I called my sister, she told us Abby was down for the night as she had not had a nap that day. We were both bummed.

Who wouldn't be upset if they missed this? She's simply precious!
