79999 Page Views...

As I processed this morning, checking emails, bank balances, Facebook, and my favorite blog "reads", I realized that my own blog was on the precipice of another milestone...

That's right, with over six years of posts, my site-meter is at 79,999 page views...

For some that may seem insignificant, but for me it seems unfathomable... I remember when I hit 1,000 hits and thought to myself "Dang this is kinda fun"... 

All I can say to the people that, for whatever reason, end up on my little slice of the "interwebs", is...Thank You!

I will post the location of the 80,000th hit tomorrow...

My Retarded Crepe Myrtle...

As our early spring has "sprung" here in Virginia, I noticed all the Elms, Birches, Maples, Oaks, and ALL other trees sprouting their foliage. For those of you that have seen my previous posts on the Crepe Myrtle lined street I live on, and how all of them come to life in the summer, I have been quite worried these past few weeks. 

All of my neighbors' Crepe Myrtles have their spring green going on, yet my one tree (on line with all the others) looked something like the photo above.

Every morning I would go out to the front porch to have coffee and take a peek to see if mine had sprouted some hint of growth overnight, only to find that it was as bare as it was in January...

Mind you, my tree is younger than some, but older than others and has an unobstructed view of the springtime sun, yet all the others have already bloomed with an abundance of green leaves... 

I only kept thinking: "I have a retarded or possibly worse, DEAD tree in the swayle between my sidewalk and the street, what will the neighbors think the gay boys have been doing to it?"...  Eeee Gaaaads!

I woke up early this morning (around 5ish), and of course it was too dark out to determine whether the tree had sprouted growth overnight (we did have an all day rain event yesterday, so I only held my breath until the sun came up)... Lo and behold, there were little red reflections off the tree as the sun started reflecting off the trees in the gayborhood...

I guess my neighbors might be thinking now, how the gay boys' trees know how not to Pre-Maturely Foliate!!

Sittin' on the Porch by the Bay...

This is one of the reasons I love the place I live... Coffee and laptop on the front porch, on a sunny Mid-Atlantic morning. Today we woke to temperatures in the high 30's and this afternoon we should hit 75. It won't be the first day I had the heat on overnight and the A/C on by the late afternoon...

Where has the "Blogido" Gone?

I'm not sure where my blogging energy has gone, but it seems to have faded recently. I am still reading all my favorites (Over on the right side-bar) but have come short on topics to "engage in"...

Rather than scour the web for something interesting, sanitizing it and re-posting it here, I will just list a few things going on in my life right now...

.    I am a little depressed that I have not found gainful employment yet.

.    Ubu (the blue pit we took in) has decided that the rungs on the front of my

     dining chairs are a great substitute for branches and twigs he chews from 

     the back yard (just an FYI, his God-Mother, Rachael Ray, has suggested Sour

     Apple Spray to detract him from chewing and licking things on the "NO" list).

.    I am "Addicted"... To 2 new TV shows, "Revenge" and "Scandal", both awesome.

.    I have been dramatically affected by the early pollen this year (Ahhhh-Chuuu)!

.    I think as a result of my depression, my libido has been missing (I think it

     decided to take a vacation to some exotic paradise without me).

.    In ALL my spare time, I helped put together a family reunion for 30 people in the

     mountains of VA over Memorial Day week (some of my cousins, kids, aunts

     and uncles)... Many of us haven't seen each other in years. Gonna be fun...

OK, enough of my rambling, what's going on with you all? I will try to have something more controversial to post about on my next entry...
