a new annoyance
i am a bit annoyed at mini's daddy but not yet to the point o draggin the 'husband for sale' sign back out into the yard which is good cause i have a waitin list o friends wantin to use it. anyway, seems since he can no longer count on me to hide the fire extinguishers so he can seek em and drag em back out, his new joy is turnin the air conditioner to somethin toastier than the lower number i prefer it set to when i have the doo dad factory runnin at top speed. i bet i have set it to where i need it and he has snuck down the hall and turned it back up no less than 50 times since he realized i am no longer hidin the fire extinguishers. if this keeps up, drastic doo dad'n measures will be necessary....i will be forced to call upon my most resourceful self to perform diabolical and deceitful doins. in other words, i'll need to take a shot o the new digital thermostat display recently installed and doctor it up into a 72 or so degree decoy for the damn thing to don. it's kind dark down the hall where all this degree dealin is happenin and my doo dad'n skills should be sufficient for duplicatin the dreaded degree mini's daddy has decided to force upon the doo dad den.
in case you are thinkin of defendin mini's daddy in this dilemma due to the dour warnins from those dedicated to energy conservation and such, please don't. i work real hard to be a good citizen in the area of helpin to protect our environment and am sure i have earned a bit o cool air while performin my duties as a doo dad designer. i grew up down south - in an area proclaimed to be the most unhealthy place in america a woman could possibly live - surrounded by oil refineries with no faux air of any kind and i feel all that sweatin and misery should be counted toward my total environment protectin points.
even self-appointed global warnin guru al gore would agree after takin a look at any one o the pictures taken at one a my school functions - you know - those where you stand next to your date wearin your corsage and fancy dress? in every one o mine both me and my date are drippin wet - and it ain't from tusselin in the back seat before the picture was taken either. there's nothin like dryin off after takin a shower and feelin like you never bothered to do so. jo swears she dated the ugliest boy in town one summer just so she could ride around in his air conditioned car a couple o times a day for relief from the heat.
growin up, i never had first hand experience of a breeze - we did get some mighty strong winds durin hurricane season but i never felt any of em cause we would already be in the un-airconditioned car - with all the windows down so the mosquitos would remain blown out - headin inland toward my aunt paula's always air conditioned house before any big gusts were whipped in our direction. it wasn't until i was in my twenties and far away from texas that i learned not everyone in the world had to feel hot and sweaty year round and i really don't wanna feel that way when in the comfort o my own home sweet home. mini says that the day her daddy stops thinkin of new ways to annoy us is the day we need to worry about how much he loves us. knowin him as i do, i must admit this made a bit o sense but made me no cooler or less determined to get him to stop heatin things up.
sorry to be complainin - from what i hear it's hot just about everywhere so i hope you haven't been miserable too! i just stopped by to say - between the thermostat war and my eyes still hurtin a bit from the cinnamon toast fire extinguishin, i had to take a day off from the ol blog here but hope to be back, cool as i desire to be and peepers in fine workin order tomorrow or the next day at the latest. i even had tink model some more new duds for displayin and took some snaps o that damn squirrel and her children on their latest climb down from above the doo dad den and out into moland...so i hope to see you back here then!
