Random Tuesday – Seriously Random Rants



So, here we are, again, on a Tuesday, spewing randomness. Go to Stacy’s blog if you wanna join in.

  • I totally skipped blogging on Monday. Work is a ton of bricks and I am the poor soul trapped beneath them.
  • I had four shots of espresso this morning because the machine makes 2 at a time and I ordered a large – 3 – so she asked if I wanted the fourth. I am worried for when my eventual crash shows up. You’ll find me passed out and drooling on my desk.
  • I was going home around 1:30 on Friday and as I was about to round the corner to my street, I was halted by emergency vehicles. Since I couldn’t see my house, I was immediately freaking out. I parked my car and went to talk to a neighbour who was gawking and it turns out some tree service guy got pinned under some branches on a neighbour’s roof.  Later on I found out that the city used it as an extraction training exercise, which was why there were 2 police cars, 3 ambulances and 4 fire trucks!
  • On Saturday I ran three miles, got home and immediately mowed the lawn. I haven’t felt that exhausted in I don’t know how long. Which actually made me feel quite old.
  • I am not huge on Easter but I have already filled 3/4 of the eggs for Elliot and Isaac to find and I sorta have baskets ready for them. I do it more out of this innate sense of obligation that I seldom question. My mom always made us baskets, therefore I make baskets. Logical.
  • I mentioned last week my on-going mental list of things I will be purchases/acquiring when I have more money. One of them will be going back to yoga. I need to stretch! I am so stiff and achy.
  • Now this IS a really random thought but man, I really miss CompUSA. I worked there for two years and I miss the days when we had decent stores for that stuff. Best Buy doesn’t cut it when it comes to computers.
  • Isaac is SO close to walking and I can’t help but wonder if I ought to work with him more. Should I just let him figure it out on his own? I mean, it’s not a race to get to these milestones.

And now, because I am equal opportunity, I present the first man of color Man Candy. Shemar Moore, I remember you from my days of watching Young and the Restless. You are as hot now as you were back then. That body… ::fans self::…hoo boy. Enjoy!

  1. Hoo boy indeed!

    We still have to put together basket for the boys–nothing too elaborate but something. And we will be dying eggs on Saturday.
    Enjoy watching Isaac learn to walk on his own–those first magic steps cause the greatest expressions on their faces.

  2. I used to do Easter baskets when my kids were younger, but since I’m a Pagan and the baskets, bunnies, and eggs actually come from the Pagan fertility festivals before they were appropriated by Christians, it makes sense to me. I’m still trying to figure out what bunnies and eggs have to do with the crucifixion. 😉

    I pretty much just let my kids figure out walking on their own.

    Happy Tuesday!

  3. I remember the days of work being a ton of bricks and being trapped under them – though I was never as creative as you with the metaphor. 😉 Hope the load lightens up soon!!

    I do Easter baskets for Princess Nagger since she still believes in the Easter Bunny. Though I’m wondering if she’s figured out who does the baskets, since I usually make one for her and apparently my gift basket style gives me away. This year, though, even though I bought a basket and goodies to fill it, I ordered that HOP basket she wants – so I’m thinking she’ll think the Easter Bunny is alive and well, since she knows there are no HOP baskets around here. 😉

    I love, love, LOVE Shemar Moore in Criminal Minds – he sure is a hottie! Excuse me while I wipe up the drool… 🙂

    Thanks so much for hanging in there with me and playing along each week! You ROCK! 🙂

    RTT Rebel Week 4

  4. Happy RTTs! 🙂

    Easter is celebrated quite differently in my country, so thank God I don’t have to do all the egg and basket thing.. 😀

    Ahhh, Y&R, it’s been sooo long since I last saw an episode, but I still see Shemar on Criminal Minds, so yay.. 😛

    He’s so hot it’s almost wrong to look at him.. LOL 😀

  5. We do baskets too, though we don’t celebrate Easter.
    RUN 3 miles???? I can DRIVE 3 miles. Does that count?
    Now that I’m no longer pregnant (hallelujah!) I need to go back to yoga too, but I know it’s going to be ugly for a while.
    Happy RTT!!
