monday mumbles

ya wanna see somethin really weird? hubby and i went fishin yesterday mornin... i didn't catch anything.... well , cept a "red bull" buzz. and afterwards , a red bull crash. will i ever learn? doubtful. cuz i just love those things.
but anyhow... as usually, i only fished for less than an hour... hard to believe that only last summer i was fishing for 2-3 or 4 hours at a time, and now i am lucky to make it an hour. but oh well. maybe when it warms up, i shall bring a chair. but for now, it's not so terrible cuz it is still kinda cold so it doesn't kill me to leave early.

anyhow-- back to my story---

i didn't catch any fish--- but soulman did get one. the weather really is messin around with the fish. but he got one yesterday--- and when he looked in his mouth to take the hook out--- look what he saw...... ( it is kinda blurry, but it is a fish tail!) -- it was kinda cool to see that, but i did wonder if he was ever gonna fully swallow that thing or choke to death on it. and why would he try to eat hubbys bait.. with a fish in his throat!? weird.










anyhow--- it looks sort of like a shadow-- but it is a fish.
it seems almost a too big fish - for this fish to be eating.
but he did.



anyhow, in further soul news ... pretty much nada. we fished, i napped, i went to wally hell in the eve because i again forgot to take meat out of the freezer-- but refused to get restaurant (why can i NEVER spell that damn word? never? if not for spell check.. i would be screwed)... anyhow i did not want to order in or go out again.. so i went to wally hell, for a cooked chicken and misc crap we needed... along with some hair color.
hubby finally said he would do my hair-- after i threatened to pull a brittany and shave my head. so i got hair color too. apparently--- not the right kind. because... the frosted streaks... they are orange! not a bright, punk orange.. thank God... but orange. ugh. he said he would do it again today. this hair of mine is about to kill me. or make me kill. i hate this brown moppy mess on my head. ERG. for months, it just keeps on gettin darker, and messier, and more awful. and depressing. i could break every mirror in this place to avoid lookin at it.
i used to have naturally blonde light nice lookin hair--- WTH happened to me?
nevermind... i know. this is what happens when a head is deprived of sun.
summer where are you??? i cannot stand this winter cold BS. april just will not be here soon enough. i really really need another 74 degree day. but i hear we have a freakin "Polar Blast" on the way.
PEACHY. just DANDY.

ok.. well that would be about all i have to say for now, as my coffee is cold and i have a cramp in my ass. so i spose i shall get UP and get some coffee, put my whining dog out, and re-coffee myself.

So the fish had a choke and choke, while you prolly sat and smoked and choked..the buzz from the red bull came crashing down, along with fishie's suppa after he realized he'd wasted his time with a fish none the wiser, and caught a gleaming glance at Soulmans baitwonder..
you delved into change with the colors of a rainbow, and now instead of soulmange, you're more about SoulyGlowie!
Can I call you my Soul Glow worm?

Happy monday;BAH! sucks.
Coffee please, the kind I have sux.
Always,
E~

CRUSTY MOM-E said...

by the way, how is midnight? How are you? Soulkid and Soulman? I'm glad you got out fishing..that helps sooth things that are traumatic, you know?
Always,
E~

SOUL said...

mornin cheryl...

my agenda? hmmm
kinda sucky today-- you know how i feel about dr's by now right?
well, not only do i have to take soulkid to ortho this afternoon--- which would not suck as bad-- if i didn't know that THIS would be the day for her braces to come off.. HAD she done everything she was supposed to---- bUT... well... she didn't... so, i expect to hear that she will be wearing them even longer.
*SIGH*

PLUS--- i have an appointment myself... earlier in the day--- with the neurologist that gave me the meds that nearly killed me this passed week. i have a feeling it won't go well. i will bitch about the meds.. and the pain.. and he will send me away-- with no resolution.. or meds for the pain.. and i will be a whiney bitch for the rest of my crabby ass life.

well... sorry about that-- you asked. :))
can you tell i am not looking forward to todays agenda? :))

what's on yours???
wanna come fix my hair hell??? :))

hope you have a good day-- a good book, and some hammock time.

that just made me think of that song "hammer time" remember that-- or am i just old???

latah

SOUL said...

oldy..

whiner-- debbie downer.. lol.. i don't think either comes close in describing my mood this morning. i kinda thought i was doing ok... until i re read this crap i've been writing.

umm.. psychiatry anyone??? :))

i blame winter too!! WTH?
yes by april i just mean WARMTH. if i'm lucky it might be march. and Lord knows i need warmth to live. i am like a flower in the attic .. shriveling up and dying here in this damn house. ugh.

that is the one thing i am lucky about-- my skin color--- don't know if it's the addisons' or the indian.. but i do luckily have some naturally dark skin tone. PHEW. i'd really be bitchin if i was ghost white on top of all this other stuff.

how could you not know that big fish eat little fish????
i thought you read books????
it's the circle of life-- and also why the fishing lure company makes millions a year on lures--- plastic little fish with hooks-- remember??? :)) i told you ya need to go fishin!

anyhow--- my crybaby POD is above---
get out and get some damn cigs.
latah

SOUL said...

hey crusteee---
that's a pretty clever little comment there--- what do you have in your coffee this morning? wanna share? :))


we're doin ok here... i'm trying to find a way to break the news to soulkid about midnight-- she had a realy good weekend and i just couldn't find "the right time " to telll her we were gonna have to put midnight down so soon. she has known for a long time.. she just doesnt know we are talkin like a day or two now. it is not easy. i think i will have to have soulman tell her. i will make the appointment-- i just can't tell my kid this kinda thing. ya know.

anyhow-- i will catch ya later...
have a good day--

Mary said...

G'mornin, Soul, Your day sounds complicated. Two doctors appts in one day. Yuck!

If you think your hair is bad you should spend a day with mine. I've just given up on ever having it look like anything but a big mess. As a young person my hair was black but when it started to gray it did so in patches. I looked like Ole Paint, the horse. Now it's mostly gray and I, like the silly old woman that I am, decided to have it colored. It's been down hill ever since.

I'm so sorry about Midnight. It's heartbreaking to loose a dear companion.

JLee said...

It does feel like a Monday, doesn't it? haha I would try some high lift color. That's what I use since my hair tends to do that orange thing sometimes. Just look for the kind that says "ultra blonde" or "ultra lift" or something of that nature. Have a great day :)

SOUL said...

hi mary--
NO i am not looking forward to the appointments, and for some reason, just a few minutes ago i remembered hubby and i MUST get our new drivers licenses today. with my LOVELY hair. OMG. but he has the day off... and if you recall... he got a dang ticket for having a license with an old address on it not very long ago-- and is still on probation for that one. in TX you have thirty days too get a new license after an address change and we are passed that already. as you know-- we DO not-- have the luck to be pushin this way. ugh.

i refuse to say "what next".. nononono

as for your hair color--- if mine were that way-- i would prolly frost it black with grey. i like that .
i like salt n pepper in mens hair too.

anyhow..
oh ya midnight.
dammit.
this is killin me.

hope you have a great day

got anything in that treat cabinet for me? peanut butter M&Ms maybe :))

SOUL said...

hiya jlee
yes yes it does definitely feel like a monday

i will look into that color.
i hate my hair btw.. have i mentioned that :))

hope you have a good day.

The Real Mother Hen said...

We're freezing our ass off here and you are still fishing?!
Holy crap! :)

Ahhh... Orange hair! You know what, I heard that fish is attracted to color, especially orange! :) There, you will have plenty of luck when you go fishing in that color :)

CRUSTY MOM-E said...

Hi SoulGlowworm! Nothing in mycoffee but sweetner and black..but I did take a tylenol pm last night about 7, having trouble sleeping lately.

I feel for you with having to tell Soultween about Midnight..I wonder if it will help her to go with to say goodbye..that helped my mom when she had to tell my babysister who was about her age when Dimples our doggie passed away. She have my sis a choice to go with, stay in the room, hold her paw, or to do what she felt is best...it's soooo hard no matter what. but to this day, my sister who still loves Dimples and has cockerspaniel magnets of the color that dimps was all over their home, says that being given the chance to make the decision on her own, being spoken honestly about it versus having my parents lie to her was the best thing for her..she still cried, she still grieved, but after time, she realized how fortunate she was to have my parents talk with her about it versus keeping it from her, and giving her a choice about going with to say goodbye..

Sob..I hated that...like I've said before, that's one of the main reasons I fear getting a dog-too painful.
Hope you're holding up!

Here, enjoy some coffee..I put a bit of Crust in it for you. ;)

Always,
Elizabeth

Jamie said...

A cramp in your ass.....teehee

and a whole lot of other stuff but I got really busy here and forgot what you wrote so I will catch you later have a good evening.

xo

Anonymous said...

yeah midnight and soulkid... not good..but anyways good luck.. i like crusty's name for you..glow worm? But if you follow mother hen's advice..could be good bait.. LOL...ttyl...

SOUL said...

motha....
you crack my shit up !!!

yes, it is very nice today actually... you would love to go for a walk here! i wish you could.

it would be a really good day to fish, but i missed it-- takin care of business .. gettin ready to go to ortho now. i'm glad it isn't my mouth, but it may as well be this time.

anyhow.. yes fish do like the color orange--- perhaps this would also be a good day for me to go jump in a lake?! :))

latah
have a good rest of the day

SOUL said...

yep crustee-- there is no easy way to do it-- that why i did tell soulman HE would have to -- he was left speechless even to me-- i can't imagine what he will say-- but am almost sure he will think he can wait til the last minute-- which won't be a very good idea. soooo, now i'm thinkin it's gonna be one of those pow wow type things... and she alwaqys thinks she's in trouble when we have a "family talk"
ugh..

welp--- have a good evening
hope you sleep better tonight

SOUL said...

yes jaimie, a cramp in my ass.. it is no laughing matter-- it was quite painful. :))

have a good night, hope you can get some sleep too
ox

SOUL said...

i know it yankee-- i think everyone's spikin their coffee today -- don't you?

:))
have a good one

Oldy said...

i think crusty had a good idea about midnight.

soulkid IS old enough to decide how she wants to say goodbye.

poor little midnight. She's really gone already. :(

how was the rest of your day?

bad stomach day here AND another BORING as hell one to boot.

i drug out my picture tinting stuff though.

then went thru millions of pics only to discover ...they all suck. ack!!!

i forgot about the circle of life. lol

i'm a flower in the attic too. only i bet the attic was cleaner than this place!

have a good night. love me

Jessica said...

Serves that fish right getting caught, the greedy son of a gun!

Oh, and it's 6 degrees in the Twin Cities right now. The weather guy chimed in and said enjoy the warm front an arctic blast is on the way. Excuse me but 6 seems plenty arctic to me!!!!

Blur Ting said...

Poor you with the bad weather. I shouldn't be complaining about the rain here cos it's still sunny and hot when it's not raining. I understand all about bad hair days... I just got mine done and it feels great!

CRUSTY MOM-E said...

I hope you're holding up alright!
I wish you guys weren't facing this right now.
Trust in your own Soul self, and as you've done with your tremendous life, you will survive, and Lucky for Soultween, since she's you, she will too, and someday look back and when she has your grandbaby(ies) she'll follow the same thoughts that you guys did for her regarding this awful time..
I'm so sorry..
I don't know what else to say...
:(
Always,
Elizabeth
If I lived close, and if I knew her well,I'd stop over and take her for a drive to do mall shopping..to help all of you. xo

Portia said...

Wow greedy fish. I'm glad you got out fishing:) Hopefully the cold won't last long. So you had quite a day. I hope it went OK and you're having a good evening:)...?
Oh and I loved Crusty's comment too:):) SUch energy in the morning!

WaterLearner said...

Hi Soul,

Looked like you sure had fun!!

BTW, I have added your good site to my blogroll :-)

Cheers!

SOUL said...

oldy--
how could you forget about the circle of life--- it was a friggin song... a very overplayed song for that matter.

anyhooo... did you salvage any of your crap oldy-man (LOL) tossed out of your office?

are you out of cigs again today---

c ya latah
luv me

SOUL said...

hiya jess---

yes he was a greedy hawg fish. i bet he was the baby of the family.. don't you? :))

and SIX degrees. i just don't know why people live in places like that. lemmee guess--- you have "roots" there. right?
ugh.
i'm afraid i would go rootless and warm.. than have roots and freeze to death!
but anyhow---
i hope you have a good day--
and bundle UP!

SOUL said...

hey blur--
haven't been seein you much around here---

i remember that tropical rain from when i was on diego garcia-- i loved that warm rain. the wind was a bit harsh at times... but the rain was actually nice enough to enjoy walking in.. even when it poured. i miss it.

glad you like your hair--- we got my hair stuff yesterday-- but never got to re-doing it.
eventually we will. :(

have a good day

SOUL said...

hey crusty---

as far as I go with the midnight issue-- i think i have reached the point of acceptance---
i think soulman hasn't.. and of course-- it hasn't been mentioned to my girl.

but-- today i will make the appointment. for when i am not sure-- but soon.
as for her body... that is what i just don't know about. the more i think about it .. the less i know what to do.

that is where renting a house kinda sucks.

anyhow-- thanks for all your concern, and yes i will give her the option of what she wants to do. i do think she will want to be there tho. but we will see.

i hope you have a great day

and her is some really really good coffee for you!!!
latah

SOUL said...

hiya portia.. where have you been hiding? i thought maybe that big ole hawg fish got you too!!!

i hope you are off to a good start of your week?

happy tuesday!

and yes i know--
i have forgotten what energy is. :((

SOUL said...

hiya waterlearner---
how've ya been?
hope things are good there.
thanks for the link.. i'll add you here too. i like your site too. you have some pretty witty stuff over there.

have a good (night?)?
i'll never keep that straight... i should have it down by now.
laterz

CRUSTY MOM-E said...

{{{SLLLLLLLUUUUUUUURRRRRRRPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!}}}
The coffee tastes divine! Thank you so much!

HA! I've been told many times about my peak energy time..the buzz in the morning of my pitter patters are a bit frenetic..not heavy on the floors, more so, wash this, iron this,..breakfastX3 different X's...

I'm thinking of you today..I hope you have someone near you when you make the phone call..it's okay to break down..

You know more so than anyone else what's best for you daughter-even she doesn't know it yet-whatever you decide will be in the best interest for your family..

Your comment about Soulman reminds me of my dad..mind if I share? Okay, I gonna..after our first dog died, Freckles, it devastated us-mainly my mom because dad always worked long hours to support his 5children and stay at home wife/mom...so not too long after Freckles had died age 5 of lung cancer (She didn't even smoke!!) we were out looking in a pet store after my organ lessons (YUCK!) and we saw this little pup black and white so adorable..my mom bought her..we named her dimples because of the specks near her snout like lil dimps..mom didn't tell dad...you can imagine how pissed dad was without being involved in this decision I still can remember their fight that night while I lay up in my bed...funny thinking back and knowing how hard it is to care for a puppy, why the hell would my mom take on a puppy when she had 5children to care for..she sure is a servant my mom...anyways, 16+years later when Dimples passed away, it was my dad that had the most difficult time..which seemed ironic because he was the one that rejected the pup out of annoyance from my mom (he is the old school alpha male nothing against him)...

anyways, I'm thinking of you.
I wish Jaime could be there with you..standing nearby in case you need a hug...
or me too!

Always,
Elizabeth

Oldy said...

mornin'

the only song i can think of with "circle" is "will the circle be unbroken"

don't think it was about species eating each other. lol

i bought a whole damn carton of cigs ba-beeee!

no i did not try to salvage anything. i did manage to save it from the trash, and start a "yard sale "pile.

i'll have to take some pics of my house today. lol

whats yer pod?

auntie j is coming down today.
my pod is cooking and before that...lazing around i reckon.

since you don't live out in the country ...perhaps you should let the vet "deal with the body"
they do a nice little cremation ,i believe.

sorry you have to go thru this.

love me *hugs*

The last time I tried to do my own hair, it ended up bright orange. I now pay an arm and a leg to have it done every 5 weeks. My husband bitches about the cost every single time. It sucks!
