Haven't written in a few days, Been really busy, So figured I'd better sit down and write something really really profound!! BUT then I sat here and sat here and oh Hell there goes Sadie....be right back.
OH SHIT!!!!!!!!! My Brother's band is playing in Pt. Angeles this weekend, so I am dog-sitting...Rocky is the funniest dog I have ever seen. He is 1/2 Boxer and 1/2 either pit bull, or rotweiller we aren't sure. His ears are not cropped and neither is his tail which is about 18 inches long and thin. Rocky is his name. As in BOXER get it? I didn't...anyway, Sadie does NOT like him....growls, and barks, and basically lets her Buzzard mouth override her hummingbird ass. the Hair on both of their backs was standing straight up and both were snapping and growling. I have NEVER seen ROcky act aggresive towards anybody or anything. But he sure tried to with Sadie, and she tried right back. I'm not sure who woulda won this round, but since I have a dog in this fight, I thought maybe I had better try and keep them as far apart as possible. I think it's gonna be a LOOOONNNNGGGG weekend. Uncle Bandit could care less, who does what, as long as he gets fed and kept warm. He is pretty much hen-pecked by Sadie too. Maybe if they get used to each other through the doggie gate things will be ok. Rocky and Bandit are Buds. Sadie and Bandit are Buds, it's just Rocky and Sadie that snarl at each other.
Tonite is opening night for OVER THE RIVER AND THROUGH THE WOODS at The Whidbey Playhouse. I have already had one of the cast members call and ask If I would re-take his picture, because he thought he looked like he should be in a Gay Chorus Line. EGOS....Ok Chad, I will retake your picture, but then you gotta live with it. I will run down, retake it, run back home print it out and run back in and post it on the board. I will admit, It did look pretty bad. His makeup was too dark. So we are going to re-do it with out makeup.
I am getting so nervous about GODSPELL. This has got to be done just right, and there are so many people that are going to audition, and I just hope I pick the right cast. Guess I won't know until I get there huh?
It has gotten really cold here this week. Right now the wind is calm and the sun is shing, but it is COLD. They really are predicting the possibility of snow tonight and tomorrow. GOODY!!! I love snow!!! Oh WAIT....It can't snow, I have AUDTIONS...Sun and Mon. Better re-think this.
ever see a cat walk across a room and into another room WITHOUT TOUCHING THE FLOOR? Chitters does not like ROCKY! So he made it from the front room window to the office window by walking across every piece of furniture in the front of the house. FUNNY...

BOO!!!!!!
An extremely modest man was in the hospital for a series of tests, the last of which had left his bodily systems extremely upset.
Upon making several false alarm trips to the bathroom, he decided the latest episode was another and stayed put. He suddenly filled his bed with diarrhea and was embarrassed beyond his ability to remain rational.
In a complete loss of composure he jumped out of bed, gathered up the bed sheets, and threw them out the hospital window.
A drunk was walking by the hospital when the sheets landed on him. He started yelling, cursing, and swinging his arms violently trying to get the unknown things off, and ended up with the soiled sheets in a tangled pile at his feet.
As the drunk stood there, unsteady on his feet, staring down at the sheets, a hospital security guard (barely containing his laughter) who had watched the whole incident walked up and asked, "What the heck is going on here?"
The drunk, still staring down replied: "I think I just beat the SHIT out of a ghost!"
So, Happy Halloween!

Auroras tonite!!!
No picture, but as good a description of them as I have ever read. go to Chris' blog and indulge!
He is about 100 miles north of me in Howe Sound off Vancouver, Ca

sunset
THis is in no way a good composition, but the colors are very accurate. This was at the height of the storm. Looks ominous huh?
And then there was Light!!!
Well, If you have been reading Phyllis' blog, you will know that I was without power for awhile yesterday, and it was not too stable when it came back on. I opted to be safe, and NOT be on the 'puter. I turned it off, and went to bed. Lights kept dimming, so I was watching TV and woke up when my daughter got home. She works off Island In Everett. The wind was sooo bad and coming from a different direction than usual, that it caused wide spread damage. Some of it being at the Mukilteo Ferry landing. The Ivars Restaurant there lost it's outside deck, and the water was slapping so hard UNDER the place that the floors were raising 3-4 FEET up. Needlees to say they evacuated the place. Donna stops there frequently for dinner before she gets on the ferry to come home. I called and she was in the mall. The Ferry had shut down for safety, and the line was 2 miles up the hill, so she figured she'd play it safe and shop. None of the street lights were working all along hiway 99 and 525. She said when she got on the ferry, that you couldn't see the island. All the lights were out.
Yep They were. Especially on the south end where the ferry lands. A branch feel over the main line up-island, and put everybody in the dark. Tree fell on a car in the state park killing one man too. Bad winds!!! The news said it was gusting up to 63 MPH on the Base. I believe it!
My Garbage can rolled across the front yard, and the front door blew open, that's when I knew the wind was different. My lights went out at 4:00 so I went on in to Oak Harbor to the Playhouse. Got the Bios and pictures posted on the lobby wall, set up the box office for member's night and turned it over to someone else and left. On the way home, I looked across the water at Coupeville, and there were no lights. Somebody STOLE Coupeville!~!! wow. When I got over there, only the old part or the historical part was black, the Prarie Center side was lit. I took the back way home to avoid the non-working stoplight, and it looked so odd to not see lights in the farmhouses. It was almost like You were all alone. The fields were dark, but across the sound you could see a few lights, and the glow from Seattle was showing above the South end. Othwerwise, DARK! Real DARK!
I had put a flashlight between the storm door and the front door for Donna, and called and told her the power was out. She wasn't home yet, so I left my headlights on and got the flashlight to get into the house. Went back turned out the headlights and came in and lit lamps and candles. I pulled out the Coleman lamp, assembled it and turned it on. It puts out heat as well as light, so I put it on the desk, and turned on the laptop to post my blog to word.
Lint jumped up and curled around the lantern to keep warm and stuck his nose right on to the chimney of the lamp and burned his little nose. Won't do that again. Just got all comfy, had the boom-box tuned to the local channel KWDB and listened to the local news. Had 1/2 a page written on the lappie and heard a generator close by. Hmmmmm Lea must have bought a new generator, she said she was, and she had lights. I typed a little more, and just felt weird, so I got up to look outside, and noticed that everybody else had a generator too. How weird is that? turned around to blog some more and noticed the kitchen light was on. DUH!!!!
Lesson for Mary Lou: ALWAYS KEEP A LIGHT TURNED ON IN THE ROOM YOU ARE IN SO YOU KNOW WHEN THE POWER COMES BACK ON. DUH DUH DUH
This morning I put Sadie out to pottie, and I watched her from my window. She did her business and was watching the birds, and decided to chase one. Right under the Wisteria bush and right into stinging Nettles!!! they bit her little nose, and she jumped back and barked and barked and barked at the BIG BAD BUSH that EATS PUPPY NOSES!! I laughed so hard. She is such a joy,
Ok, I'm caught up now. gotta get wood in and get ready for Chapter 2 which will hit either tonight or tomorrow. It is all coming down fron the Gulf of Alaska. OK Rachel, how bad is it gonna be, you have it first I hear.

HELL WEEK!!
This was technically the last dress rehearsal before a live audience comes in. We Have our Members night tomorrow, and If you are a member of The Whidbey Playhouse, you can get to see all of the plays free on Members night. (Cheapest Season Ticket in Town!) So tonight I was frantically taking pictures of scenes that I needed for the story board in the Lobby. Just finished enhancing and printing out all of the 8X10 head shots and the bios too. So tomorrow, I will be busy, too. Gotta go get my MRI on the bum knee, take Zucchini bread into Phyllis office, get gasoline, run into the Playhouse and decorate the lobby, then take a deep breath and relax for a day until opening night on Friday.
I start GODSPELL on Sunday with Auditions, then after that show is over I will be able to just relax. I have worked every show this year, and I had not planned on that. Just worked out that way. I enjoy it, and it has helped me get through this year. When February comes and the show closes, I will once again start in on the inside of the house. As you all remember, I took a hiatus from painting the inside because the weather was so good outside. Well I didnt get all of the outside done either, but I did get more than I had thought. The yard actually looked pretty good this year. At least the back yard did.
I was planning on getting some fall bulbs planted, but I just ran out of money, time and weather. There is always next year. Bob got my cultivator working, so I can turn over the garden where the Zucchini was growing. I might even try some cold weather gardening. Spinach, lettace, cabbage garlic etc. It is usually so wet and soggy here in the winter that you need mud boots to garden in. Maybe we will have as dry a winter as we did a summer. Although you wouldn't know it by all the flooding we just had huh?
Brenda has me wanting to do something with my hair. Hers looked sooo good, that Now I am thinking that if I colored the gray up and had it styled I might look a tad bit younger. I wanted the gray to grow out, as a badge of honor, and I like it, but every time I wake up and look in the mirror, I see my Mother, and THAT scares me. (Shudder)
The time change threw me for a loop today. I have no idea why, but it just seemed like it was dead winter!! the alarm went off at 700 and it was light out, which was really nice, but the fog stayed and it got darker as the day wore on. I took a looong nap, and when I woke up I realized that it was gonna be dark real soon. I do not like the dark days. Never used to bother me before, but now they do. Maybe it is because I feel like I am in the winter of my life sometimes. I keep hoping for spring again, but it ain't gonna happen to this body!! I will be counting the days until Winter Solstice, when the Sun turns its journey back to the North again. THen I think I will feel brighter and better.
Thank you all for dropping in on Phyllis blog. She actually wrote an entry! Cool. Now she wants to change the colors. I knew she would. She's just that kinda girl. DOes anyone know why on her 'puter my blog shows up different than on mine? All of my links and archives, and the side bar stuff is all on the bottom of her page, but it is where I put it on mine.
Better fix it before I start messing with HER blog huh?
Wish me luck tomorrow! knee feels really good right now. maybe it'll be ok.

Zuchinni Bread. LOTS OF IT!!!
Ok, Ya'll, I just made another 10 loaves of bread. I will have coffee on first thing in the morning, so everybody come on over for a slice and a cup. I might even manage to send you home with a loaf under your arm.
I just added comments to Phyllis' Blog. I told her ya'll would come visit. I set her up with just the bare bones blog just to see if she would use it, and already she wants comments! Won't be long before she'll be adding blinkies, and smilies, and tags, and all those other kind of things 'cause she is just that way. (I should say I will be adding them for her< She can't even change the VCR)
She is a very touchy-feelie type person where I am sarcastic and brittle. She is in to crocheting and reading. Her Favorite is STEPHEN KING. She loves really spooky scary things and really gets into Halloween. SHe is single and has no children. Owns her own home free and clear. and works as an operations manager for the local Bus COmpany. If she wants to she can tell you more about herself.
Sadie is now staying out by herself more and more. And she has learned how to bark really well. She stands at my bedroom window and barks when she is ready to come in. She is getting so damned cute. AND BIG!!!
THis next week is what we in the theater call HELL WEEK> it is the week we open and everything that can go wrong does. Tomorrow I have to put the story board together and print out the cast pictures and do Bios on them all.
NEW TOPIC:
Anybody know any neat places to go for blog thingies? skins, blinkies, smilies, templates, stickers, yadayadayadya?
I have been looking and just havent found them yet. I did find webmonkey.
Gotta run Sadie is barking....see ya'll tomorrow for coffee.

This one was sitting on the Dumpster out behind the commissary store when I got off work. I just drove up to him/her rolled down my window and shot it from the car. They are really scavengers and dirty but I love them.

Today I had a new visitor. So being the nice person I am I went to Patricks' site and read some of his blog. I noticed that he has TONS of theater links, so I bookmarked him. Do yourselves a favor and go to October 20 blog entry at his site, and read it. I laughed soooo hard!!!!
I was all snugged down in my warm bed, socks on my ice cold feet, a cup of hot cocoa (made from Scratch) Sadie in bed for the night, and reading "I is for Innocent" and had just got to the part where Bibianna had jsut escaped from Raymond when the phone rang. It was my Sister Phyllis. The Northern lights were supposed to show up tonight, and the sky is actually clear. She called to see if I would go down to the beach with her to see if we could see them. I groaned and told her I was already in bed. She begged, so I said ok, you run by and pick me up.
I crawled out of my nice warm bed threw on my sweats over my still warm pj's and slipped on my Birkies and went to the street to wait for her. We went down to the beach, where there is no light and parked the car looking North so we could see if there was any Boreal activity. NOPE. THat is when Phyllis confessed that she only wanted me there because she is afraid of the dark. I have known her all of her life, I knew that. That is what Sister's are for. To keep the other one safe from the scary monsters in the dark. Done it all my life! Of course I'm afraid too, so we both sat there telling scary stories, in the dark, in a car, on the beach road, in our pj's. I looked over at phyllis and said..."I hope a cop doesn't come by now, they will think we are parkers, and flash a light into the car, and then they'll think we are LESBIANS!!!"
There was a faint wisp of ground fog every once in awhile, but for the most part the sky was clear, and the stars were so close you could hear them twinkling. We could hear the ducks and waterfowl on Crockett Lake, and the owls hooting in the trees across the Lake. The Salt water was sloshing softly on the rocks and they were making a soft rushing noise as the water pushed and pulled at them. These are rocks almost through with their evolution from boulders into sand. THey are mostly gravel size, and make a very musical sound when moved by the water. It was one of the coldest nights so far this season, 36 and you could see your breath. The only thing missing was the Northern Lights. THey were a no-show. At least at midnight they were.

Frosty Morn...
Well not really, but CLOSE! I din't wake up until 900!! What a SLUG! I actually slept really well last night. My knee wasn't hurting, and neither was my back. I woke up when Sadie started the HOOOOWWWWWWLLLLLLLing. the uh uh uh uh uh uh didnt wake me up. I musta been sleeping GOOD. I dont even remember getting up to pee!!! (NO, I didnt!!). Ethel was sleeping warmly and comfortingly in the middle of my back. I raised my head and looked out the window, and Lola was on the feeder stuffing her little face. She has not been here in a while. She stays well hidden when it is nasty out. I was glad to see her back again. Still have not seen her babies.
I stagger in to the bathroom and pick up Sadie, and head for the back yard. BRRRRR the barefeet aint gonna hack it today. So I shoved her out the door by herself and watched from the window. She looked over her shoulder at me with her tail tucked under as if to say."so it's too cold out here for you, and you expect me to squat my little twat over the cold wet grass?" I did not even feel bad about it either.
As i wandered into the kitchen to make a pot of coffee, I tripped over Sadie leavings. No not poop, but all the trash in the world. She finds junk everywhere and deposits it right where I will trip on it. The floor was cold, my toes were cold, the house was cold, the sun was shining really brightly. It hit me that the weather has finally turned. It is Autumn for sure now. I still can not bring myself to start a fire yet though. I try not to turn on the heat or build a fire until Nov 1. I only use wood heat, electricity is only used as a back up. I have a really tight house, and it holds the heat well. And the windows bring the heat from the sun into the room very nicely.
I like a cool house too. Nothing is better than putting on a warm fuzzy big sloppy sweater, soft cords, and a pair of slipper socks, and cozying up on the sofa with a book, or needlework. Sadie is in and playing under the desk. Better post quick!!!

How'd they do that?
ok, Anybody out there able to figure this out?
1. Key into the calculator the first 3 digits of your phone number (not
area
code).
2. Multiply by 80
3. Add 1
4. Multiply by 250
5. Add last 4 digits of your phone number
6. Add last 4 digits of your phone number again
7. Subtract 250
8. Lastly, divide by 2
Is this your phone number???
If you can figure this out, please explain how the arithmetic works!!
