Wading barefoot through the stream of consciousness

I don't have much I want to talk about right now so here are some random bits of fluff:

• It's cold.
• Luckily Mr. Dub is out of town so I was able to double up with the covers last night.
• I had to, because, you know, I took the extra blanket off the bed the other day.
• I hate when I wake up at night because I'm cold.
• Mr. Dub is in Arlington at opening day.
• Opening day is the first day of Major League Baseball.
• His team won.
• It's weird when his team wins because he doesn't get all happy and excited.
• It's more like he's just relieved that things are finally going the way they were supposed to all along.
• I wonder what will happen today.
• I'm reading a book called A Town Like Alice by Neville Shute.
• I think that's what it is called.
• I don't want to go downstairs to make sure.
• I hope it will be a good book.
• I only started it yesterday.
• I hate hate hate when I start a book because somebody recommended it to me and then I have to struggle to get through it.
• Book Club is next week.
• I think it is anyway.
• I should find out.
• The car horn on my van started blowing full blast for no reason on Sunday morning about 9:30.
• The sound was so loud and so intense that I couldn't SEE.
• That is so bizarre because what in the world does sound have to do with vision?
• I guess my whole sensory system was overloaded.
• I couldn't make it stop and would any one of the males I live with come out to help me figure out how to make it stop?
• No.
• But finally my next-door neighbor appeared and he had a wrench and he unhooked the battery cable.
• And finally, blessed silence prevailed again in the 'hood.
• I was a little embarassed because I was still in my jammies with some major bed-head going on.
• By that time my men had emerged from the house.
• And since I still couldn't see and my heart was still hammering they took the horn fuse out of the fuse box when I asked them to.
• And reattached the battery cable.
• So now the van will start and the horn will not honk.
• But luckily I JUST had the van inspected last month.
• So I've got nearly a year before I have to worry about it.
• And by that time we will have disposed of the van.
• But all my radio presets are gone.
• And the clock is wrong.

My toes are getting pruney - I'm ready to step out of the water. Hope y'all have a bee-yooo-tiful day!
