addictions

Gary's been working 12 hour days, so I've had a lot of free time in the evenings when I get home from work. Sometimes I am productive, doing lots of laundry or cleaning. I have a long list of stuff I want to accomplish this summer. More often I find myself watching reruns of the Simpsons or trying to get our DSL to work. I gave up on the DSL last week, so it's dial-up this summer instead. I've been spending a lot of time watching Frito and Trixie play with each other. It's rather addictive, watching small furry mammals chewing on each other's tails and ears. Gary was musing the other night that it must be great to be a kitten, and have no more plans for your day other than sleep, eat, sleep, poop, sleep, play, sleep, sleep, and play. I have some pictures of them I need to upload soon.

My other addiction, which comes and goes, is the random proverb generator I wrote last month. I still haven't figured out a good way to make a party game of it, but it's fun to generate new proverbs over and over again. There are close to 40,000 possible combinations, which means that even if you hit the reload button every 5 seconds, you still wouldn't have seen them all after a day.

Time to go watch the cats again.

Frito and Trixie are too cute! Sounds like and exciting summer. I switched to dial-up to....sooo slow.
