Ever notice how it's the little things in life that amuse us so much? More to the point, ever notice how it's the silly little idiocies in life that amuse us more than anything else? Well, this is not as much ''the little blog that could'' as it is ''the blog that enjoys going up the down escalator in your local mall.'' Will it have anything of real importance? No, probably not. But enjoy the ride never the less!

 

And not only is it a quirky title, but it's also pretty accurate. Especially where Mel is concerned. If she ever gives me the sad, pouty look because of something she'd like but cannot have at that particular moment, I suddenly have the willpower of a piece of tin foil. Mel knows this, and often uses it to her full advantage--if anything, just to see how much she can aggravate me by using it.

Then again, given yesterday's wonderfully pleasant weather (and by "wonderfully pleasant", I really do mean "wonderfully pleasant if you're living in Egypt"), she didn't have to twist my arm all that much to get me to buy a chocolate milkshake.

With 2 fans going in the apartment, and the balcony door cranked wide open, we're managing to get some (but not a lot) of air circulation. I find this whole humidity matter quite maddening, personally. It seems like everytime Kitchener gets a large rain or thunderstorm that drops the humidity back down even for half a day, Mel & I are elsewhere visiting friends or family. What is this, a cloud conspiracy? Are they watching for our car, and when they see it leave the city limits, they happily exclaim, "Okay, they're gone! Let's party!"

I've just likened the weather to a bunch of teenage kids being left at home overnight by their parents. Yeah, it's still too damned hot....


Today's Ridiculous & Scary Thought: if you combined a magical girl with our puppy, would you in turn wind up with Bishoujo Shih-tzu Sailor Shady? And just what kind/colour of fuku would she be forced to wear?
