My The Office Binge Day 41

I watched a few episodes today and my Mom actually watched them with me. I am loving Meredith’s wigs! I watched episode where Dwight and Darrell delivered paper. It was so funny when he threw the shake at the worker. Not that it’s funny, but it was funny that he had to clean it up and it happened to him. The song he played when he tripped doing into going on the paper run with him:

Persistence

Sean talked with my brother Jimmy the day we got Leia and he was laughing and told him that, “18 years of asking finally got me a dog!” We laughed about that today and he said that when he was 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,10 – The answer was no. Not even 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15. He didn’t get one at 16 or 17 but now, at 18, he’s got one! He attributes that fact to his persistence in wanting a dog and constantly asking me.

Now that we have a dog, the dog smell is taking some getting used to for me and today, it’s wet dog smell. But now, with a dog, there’s new development. That development has been that we keep our front door open so she can watch the occasional car drive-by, a person walk their dog, or birds fly by. Right now, with her sitting in front of the door. I snapped this picture of her just and one earlier because I guess that’s my thing now.

I guess it’s alright because it isn’t too bad weatherwise. I have since heard her sounds now. She gave a little whimper as a woman walked her dog past our door and yesterday, my Mom and I were watching a movie and there was a dog barking and then, she HAD to assert her dominance because this is her house and she barked back at it. I never thought I would stay it was pretty cute but it WAS pretty cute!

My The Office Binge Day 40

I was only able to watch one and a half episodes yesterday with the puppy arriving but I was able to watch the lice episode! The episode where CeCe had lice and then the office got lice. I remember that I got lice my first year teaching. Actually, it was just an egg but I too did the mayonnaise regiment to get rid of it! I smelled like a potato salad for days! And then. Pam and Meredith went to the karaoke bar for a beer and they sang this jam!:

A ‘Beautiful Mind’ For Sure!!!

I woke up early this morning. Everybody woke up because the dog had to go out. I haven’t been up that early since Sean still went to school. But I received a tweet notification that was just wonderful! I read tweeted it with the comments, “What a, ‘Beautiful Mind’ 😍😍😍!!! I agree with Kyle that how did we not know this and he is been in the league for a decade?!

I love that we know it now! What a ’Beautiful Mind’ for sure!!! 😍😍😍

Avatar

Sean received his multiple disc blu-ray of the show, Avatar in the mail today:

He started his, “Super Binge” upstairs on the front room TV. I forewent my Office binge to allow him to watch the show. I remember that show when he was young and part of me remembers watching this with him. I think we saw some of it in our second apartment. There were parts of episodes we watched today that I remember seeing years ago. We are about to finish disc one but we had to stop to eat dinner. Our schedule is so completely off now!

Oh Yeah…

I did not wake up today until about 10:45. My Mom got me out of bed and after I washed my hands, I sat in front of my TV to watch the news. I could not find my comfortable spot at all. I adjusted multiple parts of my wheelchair but I could NOT find my comfortable spot. I was miserable.

In that moment when I realized that I could NOT get comfortable, I was reminded that I have MS. Oh yeah… This sh#t hurts!!! I laid semi-reclined in my chair and tried to get my bearings. My Mom was talking to her friend from Las Vegas in my kitchen and they both were laughing.

It was almost like they were high school girls and that made me smile and think about when she and I laughed and my Dad corrected us by telling us , “Now girls!” and all three of us laughed together. I liked hearing them laugh but I couldn’t join in because today is it a bad MS day. Oh yeah… this hurts!
