He’s so fucking cute!! I know he’s not really the cutest cat in the world – Girlie is far prettier – but his personality is so charming, I can’t keep my lips off him. I know, I know – another blog mention of Twink, surprise surprise. But once you read the rest of this, you’ll see that perhaps another picture and mention of Twinkle’s adorableness was the highlight! I’ve got very little of note to add. But here we go anyway, with words flying off my fingers.
Last Tuesday I took a gigantic cake over to Sophie’s in celebration of her 91st birthday. I feared it would be stale since I was supposed to pick it up on Sunday, but it was as fresh as a newly-made cake. That bakery is just the BEST – and cheap! It was a massively large 9″ double-layer and it was only $17.99. Hard to beat prices and taste. No matter that I have a hundred dollars worth of cake baking and decorating supplies at my fingertips from my short-lived cake decorating endeavor. What was I thinking – for under $20 I can just order a beautifully decorated and delicious confection.
Well, I did put the decorating supplies to use last week anyway, I baked cupcakes to secure my votes for the Toastmaster’s elections. I ran unopposed (maybe everyone else knew better). In July I take over the reigns as Vice President of Education for Toastmasters, the 2nd highest position held. I go for Officer training on June 21st, and it’s luckily very close to where we live, right off of Rockside. We have a fun group that I’ll be serving with, I’ve got a lot of ideas to change it up, with the intention of creating a membership database in Access to track everyones progress towards their leadership and communicator goals, and creating a website to inspire and entertain. I know I’ll be bitching about taking on the additional work, but I bitch about everything, so no matter. It’s a good next step towards my Leadership goals.
Update: Just checked out the new townhomes on line, I’m less than impressed for the money. Not nearly cool enough looking to warrant giving up free house. Settles that. Beach house it is.
Somehow a bird managed to shit against the large picture window in the front of the house. How it managed to get there is perplexing. There’s an overhang, so one would think it would miss the window, but apparently not. That’s going to be a challenge to clean, I believe I’m going to have to get some of that window-washing stuff you hook up to the hose, and spray it off. This job calls for the Power Washer, but unfortunately that’s at Mimi’s house since I haven’t had much need for it in the past couple of years. Until now. Maybe a simple hose will do the trick. It’s right in the middle of the window, I can’t have that marring my view of the wonders of Parma streetlife!
Alrightie, I’ve pissed the morning away, I’m off to do something at the gym for an hour or so. Peace.
