Sweet revenge

Too many cookies result in added pounds. Thank goodness I pawned off most of them. I will take the last of them with me to visit Jim, Bruce and Tanya. The visit falls a day or two too late for me though.

This little sugar binge cost me four pounds. No more goodies for awhile. Gaining four pounds in two days but taking a week to lose it seems so unfair. Maybe if I had shown some restraint, the four would not be mine. I hope this little episode ends here and now.

Not only have I added four pounds, but eating junk makes me feel awful. Glad the temptation does not hang around.

Today I learned how to count to 20 and how to say 154 in afrikaans. The language makes sense. I enjoy my daily lessons. I also learned man, woman, boy, girl, and we talked about kat.

Today marks the eighth day with Ren and Stimpy. The duo hates water. They cannot bear to be apart from me for more than 15 minutes either.

Yesterday I wanted to both shower and wash my hair. I wash my hair, because of its length, in the kitchen sink. I love to stand in the shower and let the hot water wash over me. However, since I was on a mission to do both, and in 15 minutes or less, it appeared as though the Keystone Cops paid a visit.

I did manage to do both, but I do not recommend trying it on your own without adult supervision.

I almost ran down Pogo a couple of times. He had the urge to eat and I did not have time to sate his endless appetite. Boy did he show his displeasure. That tail was cracking like a bullwhip. He gave me a tongue-lashing as only he can at the top of his Siamese-infused voice.

Once I got the electrodes attacked and the battery back in Ren, I appeased Pogo. After making short work of food in his dish and a thorough bath, he settled in for his mid-morning nap.

Tried to catch D. a couple of times yesterday. Don't know if he avoids me or just did not see me. *sigh*

Freaker's Ball also a good one.

Is there a second penguin? Did he, too, leave clues? I think maybe.

I care.

Later.
