Last Night

Last night we slept so good. My Aunt set up the bed with probably the softest sheets and blankets ever. We did hear a really loud thump almost a punch on the wall which is behind the bed. Joe ran outside looking for someone or someones, we are so used to being around the homeless, criminals or crackheads it was an automatic response. Later, we thought maybe that wasn't such a good idea since we are around moose and Mom was just talking about bears coming into Anchorage and attacking people. So the next thump we hear, a little more precaution will take place.

It sure has been nice for Joe and I to have some alone time together in my Aunt's nice home, it reminds me of our desire to have our own place. Speaking of my Aunt she just called and said she was bringing a flat screen television with a stand and DVD player - BOOYAH! She must have read our minds. We brought DVD's but had nothing to play them on - boo but the problem is solved.

Joe also got a call for a job interview and we are pretty excited about that! His interview is on Monday so wish us luck!

Thank Gosh for Flock

Sometimes I really hate logging into web pages, I have so many screen names and passwords that it's nice not to have to deal with cookies or constant ID entry. I use Flock to upload all my pictures to Flickr and Photobucket, I use it to read RSS feeds, organize bookmarks and blog. It's a pretty cool we browser you should check it out if these kinds of things are important to you.

It's my day off today so it's been a day of watching "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" season two on dvd via the computer, unfortunately I buggered up my WinDVD right at the beginning of the season finale. I've just been downloading all kinds of virus programs and error fixers since then.

There is also an injured pigeon on my patio, evidently a neighbor girl saw it eating another dead bird and threw a rock at it. I think it has a broken wing.. Can pigeons have rabies? Don't they carry diseases like rats? Or is that just urban legend? I am not sure so the kid and I aren't going to touch it.

***Update:
I misheard the pigeon wasn't eating another bird, evidently a GIANT bird of some kind flew out of the sky and attacked the pigeon trying to eat it. Another pigeon was killed and the carcass was carried off by feral cats later in the evening. The pigeon stayed on my patio looking quiet hurt for a couple of hours before I called animal control. AC suggested I put a box over the pigeon to protect it from the cats, I found the top of an animal cage in my closet and an animal control officer was buy within about thirty minutes to pick it up. I hope it's ok and that they don't kill it unless necessary.

Work is going well. I had a visit from the district manager and he said boss is happy with how I am doing *YAY* In other things I went on a date with a guy from a neighboring cart, it was *sigh* typical and I feel kinda gipped. Alas, the life that is mine.
