Last night my husband walked in on me while I was trying to scan our cat.<br />
<br />
I thought it would be fun to send it <a href="http://thecatscan.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

Really? Santa porn? At 2:15 in the afternoon? Somebody's not getting any gifts this year. Well, maybe if Santa... NO! Santa porn is just wrong. With a capital W. </div>

I think dreams are boring to everyone except the person who had the dream. However, I'm making an exception tonight and telling everyone about the dream I had last night. One, because the dream was about a medblogger, and two, because it is just damn freaky. Maybe it would make more sense if I had spent the night reading medblogs, but all I did last night was watch <em>Leave it to Beaver</em>. <br />
<br />
Here's the dream:<br />
<br />
I am a boarder in this beautiful house. The house is bright and sunny. My room is gorgeous, filled with fresh flowers. Everything is white. I wake up and smell cigar smoke. I go across the hall, and <a href="http://www.tbtam.com/">TBTAM</a> is sitting in a rocking chair smoking a cigar. <br />
<br />
Then I wake up. Freaky, huh?<br />

I just realized that I blog like I go to church -- only on major
holidays. But the best part of having my blog is posting
the bunny cartoon every Easter. These bunnies never fail to make me
smile.<br />
<br />
Happy Easter.<br />

I have to start blogging more. I don't even recognize Blogger anymore.
I'm just going to type, push "Publish" and hope for the best.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">I feel like the people down the block who still have their Christmas lights up. I need a post to get rid of the Easter bunnies. I have a couple of blog post ideas rattling around in my head (one on the latest Medtweep/Twitter scandal), but no time. So, I'm just going to write about what's on my mind right now. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">First, that commercial where the lady sees a picture of a spider on a cell phone and starts screaming was funny once. Maybe twice. Please. No more. I'll buy your damn phone if you will just stop running that commercial. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Next topic. I once read that the reason doctors (both men and women) on television look so attractive in their scrubs is because the scrubs are tailor made for the actors. Which got me to thinking. If I had to wear scrubs to work everyday, would I have them tailor made? Or would I buy them "off the rack," then have them altered? Or would I just throw them on, hoping they were clean? Next question is why would I give this so much thought when I will never have a job that requires me to wear scrubs. Dunno. Just goofy I guess.</div>Medblog Addicthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13040521269327418240noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31725635.post-19849678367853276322011-04-23T20:56:00.000-05:002011-04-23T20:56:58.611-05:00BunniesI know, I say it every year.

I was just going to post without apology or explanation. And I really meant it. But yet again, I want to start with a public apology to the people who left comments that I never published. That's just rude of me. I'm sorry. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">While I'm here, I think it's about time I changed from fall colors to something springish. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">And here is a funny Angry Bird cartoon I ran across, just to make me feel better about writing another "I'm Not Dead" blog post.</div><br />

</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Ok, dammit. I know it isn't that funny unless you're addicted to Angry Birds. But it was either this or go to the back of my blog closet and pull out one of my old videos. Hmmm. It's been awhile. Maybe I can get by with posting my favorite old videos. I mean, I will enjoy watching them again. And what's so bad about posting the same crap over and over if its funny crap. So here's one. Worn, but still funny. <br />

In the car, on the way to CVS to buy a bag of Gummi Bears, I thought about what else I could buy at CVS so it didn't look like I was making a special trip just for Gummi Bears. So I also bought a bag of sour Gummi worms and some feminine hygiene products.<br /><br />5. A little while later, I was thinking about how I wished I had remembered what happens when I eat too many Gummi products in one day.<br /><br />6. When I felt a little better, I thought about how I might make this a blog post since I accidently posted my "Countdown to Halloween" post last night.<br /><br />7. While writing this post, I'm thinking how it looks a little funny that I made a special trip to CVS for Gummi Bears after seeing pictures of Gummi Bears having sex.<br /><br />8. Now I'm thinking I still feel a little barfy from eating all of those damn Gummi critters.<br /><br /><br /><br /></div>Medblog Addicthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13040521269327418240noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31725635.post-38893755760982874082010-10-24T22:07:00.006-05:002010-10-24T22:57:37.114-05:00Countdown to Halloween - Day 7<div style="text-align: justify;">I decided that if I was going to get back into blogging, I'd need a theme. Something original like, um, Countdown to Halloween!<br /><br />Halloween always reminds me of this religious family that lived down the street from us when I was growing up. There were five children in the family, and they were not allowed to participate in anything related to Halloween. They always wanted to eat my Halloween candy, but of course I didn't let them. There was no way I was going to Hell for feeding religious kids my Halloween candy. Their parents always brought "spicy" eggs to neighborhood gatherings. They were really deviled eggs, but we weren't supposed to call them that. It didn't really matter because when I was a kid, I thought deviled eggs sucked. Now I can eat a dozen of them in one sitting.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Countdown to Halloween -- Day 7</span><br /></div><br />Sears has gone to the zombies.

The gerbils of the world are in danger. Hell, it’s not just gerbils, it’s also mice and hampsters.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Ever since I wrote my post about the <a href="http://medblog-groupie.blogspot.com/2007/09/embarrassing-gerbil-question.html">gerbil question</a>, I’ve been getting daily hits from people who want to know how, or why, someone would engage in gerbil play. That’s understandable, I guess. People are curious.<br /><br />It’s just that the past few days, I have been getting an inordinate amount of visitors coming to my blog looking for answers on how to “insert” the little furry little critters. I mean, I’m talking 50 searches a day. Did some “gerbil” related incident happen recently to cause this sudden increase in interest?<br /><br />On second thought, don’t tell me. I don’t want to know.<br /><br />I'm not a big fan of gerbils. I think it would freak me out to feel their little feet on my hands if I held one. But it makes me sad to think someone would harm a little creature on purpose.<br /><br />* I originally called this “Hide Your Gerbils!” -- then I thought maybe that wasn’t the best title for this post.</div>Medblog Addicthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13040521269327418240noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31725635.post-90594040923275759222010-04-01T22:51:00.006-05:002010-04-01T22:57:31.180-05:00HAPPY EASTER!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaCQ1cyeK_ta8gp53xOv-nLO-yWbnyfGmsLe2nO0gAOkdXodRjDMkocbTE05-WgOnCPHcqckOuiz0HmoTfUdNrAHzCS35VIKiS4u3fg1Bxxacp3B7mv_bYqKoyKl0C_uFQFFFJ-Q/s1600/easter_bunnies112%5B1%5D.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 269px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaCQ1cyeK_ta8gp53xOv-nLO-yWbnyfGmsLe2nO0gAOkdXodRjDMkocbTE05-WgOnCPHcqckOuiz0HmoTfUdNrAHzCS35VIKiS4u3fg1Bxxacp3B7mv_bYqKoyKl0C_uFQFFFJ-Q/s400/easter_bunnies112%5B1%5D.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455383489700917202" border="0" /></a><br /><br />I LOVE these bunnies so much, I couldn't wait until Easter to post this.

I actually found a source of case law that doesn't scream Westlaw all over it, and I can download the cases into Word. And look! I can highlight stuff. Now let's just see if I can make the pictures stick on this page.<br /><br />This is funny. Well, as funny as law can get. One of the parties wanted to move the case from Galveston to Houston based on the fact that Galveston doesn't have a commercial airport they could fly into. The judge appears to be a little insulted.<br /><br />Check out footnote 2: Defendant will again be pleased to know that regular limousine service is available from Hobby Airport, even to the steps of this humble courthouse, which has got lights, indoor plummin', 'lectric doors, and all sorts of new stuff, almost like them big courthouses back East.<br /><br />Now that I see these on the page, I think I'm going to need to find a way to shrink the pictures.
