The week in rants, raves and randoms.


Rants:
  • This week, I lost at the watermelon picking game. Normally my intution leads me to a delicious melon. This time it led me to a cleverly disguised piece of cardboard. 
  • "May grey" and "June gloom". AKA, the phenomenon that makes our area foggy and cool in the morning before it warms up and the sun comes out after lunch.
  • Ugh. Allergies. I thought those things had gone away for the season.
Raves:
  • Dobby gets her stitches out this weekend (she was spayed not too long before we brought her home). And then I can bathe the stinky lady! (Ryan, no promises on how soon this bathing thing's going to happen.)
  • Retro MTV has been hijacking my mornings. It's truly embarrassing how much I missed the drama fest that was "Laguna Beach: The Real OC".
  • Berries. I love them all year round, but I love them EXTRA in the summer.
  • Our new place mats. I got them a few weeks ago, when my mom was here, and I'm still loving the pizzazz they bring to our kitchen table. 
Random:
  • As you may have noticed, I was a big failure at finishing the June Photo-a-day challenge. Another month, perhaps?

  1. I raved about the same thing this week - love Laguna Beach! I am pretty sure we only have about 5% of space left on our DVR because I've been recording every episode :)

  4. We don't have cable so I am missing the Laguna Beach fun the rest of you ladies are enjoying. But I am loving the berries coming off my plants and I too have a smelly dog!

  5. I can't pick a good watermelon for the life of me! Laguna Beach reruns on MTV?! I'm so there! What is it about summer that makes fruit seem so much better?
