March Madness


not really, but I feel like I should blog anyways.


Monkey news update: The crazy Spokane foreign exchange student biting monkey is dunzo. 'The Man' did him in to check for rabies (I think The Man would be some sort of animal control person), but luckily he was clean---of course not lucky for the monkey cuz evidently he had to be killed to determine that fact.
Quite a few upset monkey lovers here in the 'Kane, I heard tell of picketing. Personally, I don't think the South Hill NEEDS any sort of monkey biznaz, I'm scared enough of the dogs.
Work & whatnot: I am on the mend (kind of)! I did my nanny duties Monday and Tuesday, now am taking Wed off to recoup. Which I must have needed bc I am still sleeping about 16 hours a day. Some of you Fluther readers may question whether this is any different from my normal wake/sleep habits, but I assure you it IS. The boys were very happy to see me, we painted rocks to celebrate my return to the Parlange household. Just a few weeks now till Spring break! woot woot!
Knitting stuff: no really exciting projects in the works. I have a couple of pairs of socks on the sticks, just for something easy to pick up and work on. Plus some unfinished projects (Pirate mitten #2, New York Times Shawl and possibly some other stuff I've forgotten). Hopefully, I'll get energetic enough to finish some of these and then can start on new projects!
Travel plans: not really any for moi, other than I think I am going over to Seattle during Spring Break to help with the boys. Mom rents a house there and I believe at least a few days involve a rental on Useless Bay @ Whidbey Island! Should be lots of fun, and we are planning our list of things we NEED for the beach. Buckets and shovels dominate the wish list so far.
Katie is coming up for a visit, yeah!!! She will be in town March 21-24, can't wait to see our LA Woman. I really would love to go down and spend a few days in Cali, must figure out when....

i may be heading to LA in the beginning or mid part of April if you want to meet there. I am taking the month of April off from work since I am burnt out and they said they would rather i take a month off than quit so i thought i would go to LA to see KT. R u up for it?

OOOHHH! That may be the perfect time to take Noodle to D'land - if Kirdy isn't somewhere weird for two months or something - but Grammy and Tater can do it I'm sure!

By the way - is the Monkey Community responding to the inevitable death of the foreign student biting monkey?? Where are those North Portians(?) when you need them???

Katie said...

WOO HOO!!! YEAH COME VISIT!!!

CL, I'm so proud of you. I wish I could come to LA and join you all, but I'm already missing the first two weeks of April. I don't think my assistant coaches will let me miss any more matches! You better come to the Kan too! Too bad it isn't going to be in July and you can meet me in Hawaii. Speaking of, I want you and Tony to come there and hang with me instead of whatever Carribbean Island you are planning on...
