Adjectivity
• IRRITATING: Xanga's driving me NUTS today, dammit. Can't load about half the places I've tried to go.......
• EXCITING: New granddaughter coming soon to this site.....due date getting closer by the minute and my "jazzed" factor is now at a dead run for "WHOO HOO!"
• THOUGHT-PROVOKING: Watched a documentary on Andrea Yates and remembered a bazillion reasons why religious fanatics always give me the heebies. The only people they ever reach aren't usually real stable to begin with and those dunderheads just create HELL on earth by fanning the flames of mental illness.
• DISHEARTENING: Got news that a dear friend has breast cancer. Everyone send up a good thought, okay? She'll beat it because she's that kind of chick......but it still sudks like a Hoover.
• SAD: Found a dead cat under the dogwood tree. Dunno if someone hit her with a car and laid her there or if she just chose that place to take her final nap. Wish I knew who her people were so I could tell 'em.....
• ANNOYING: Took my sweet mother-in-law for one of those yearly "tests" at the hospital. She's 83 years old and proudly refuses to use a wheelchair, for which I applaud her! But the "test" department was approximately 29 miles from the front door. Seems to me they could do a little better than that.......
• INSPIRING: The heat wave took a hiatus! Working outside today!!
• EXPENSIVE: A trip to the gas station yesterday. GAWD!
• GLORIOUS: Hibiscus in bloom!
• ANTICIPATORY: Morning Glories NOT in bloom. Whut's UP with that? It's almost AUGUST forcryingoutloud!
• PROBLEMATIC: Top half of a tree catapulted into the field by strong winds.
• BREATHTAKING: The green-ness that is Toad Hall in the summertime.

Or maybe, in some cases, it's adverbivity. If so, my apologies to Mrs. Wilkes. (But frankly, ever since that time you hollered at me in class, I never liked you much, anyway.)

OOhh a baby!! yeppers, that's a good one... it is a very green summer here, with all the rain we've had...gas is 3.22 here at the cheap place I go to to...higher elsewhere.... all in all though, sounds like you have more good things going than irritating...
They're awesome whatever they are.
Good thoughts for your friend.

The good news side (I hope) on the breast cancer is that they have made so many strides in recent years. I have a couple of friends, one of whom was an advanced case, that have survived thus far with an optimistic prognosis. I certainly wish that for your friend.
I love your adverbs. And a new granddaughter, wow. I discussed the prospect of children versus grandchildren with a dear friend today. Do you agree with all the millions who swear that grandchildren are far superior? If so, I have a lot to look forward to.
Are you really listening to Chumbawamba?
Oh come now. What about HELL'S Angels, hm?
Taking another swig...wanted to go conservative, but hell, (2 hells in one comment?!) it is 12:30 and we don't want a repeat of last night.
Sending all good thoughts to your friend. Toad Hall sounds beautiful.
hmmm, I have morning glories for the first time ever. Climbing up a birch tree and blooming like mad. Perhaps if you threatened them. . .
ryc: thanks for your thoughts! it really perked up my day.
thoughts to your friend, as well. many hugs and kisses. and yeah, it's hot tonight even here in Londontown.
ryc- :snort: :spurt: I need a new laptop....
Dead Cat under a Dogwood Tree...
How sadly poetic.
