Christmas in Febuary and dead cows in my yard

My grandmother was in the hospital on Christmas day, so it got delayed untill the 3rd of Febuary. She’s doing ok, but has lost a lot of weight. Still, she looked healthy. Anyway.. we were all standing around and I noticed my Uncle feeding my grandmothers little fuzzy dog named Lucky. Well, this caused Grandma to get onto him.. and I looked at the dog and then up and mentioned that I still thought it was better than a schnouzer. I don’t like schnouzers. They are dumb and noisy and ugly. Well, my aunt LOVES schnouzers.. so she looked up and yelled “HE IS NOT BETTER THAN A SCHNOUZER!” Well.. my grandmother overheard her.. as did most of the neighbors. To which Grandma was like “Is so!” and just laughed. It was really funny..

In other news… I’m fat and have nearly crushed my poor computer chair. I should order a new one, but I don’t wanna. I think maybe I’ll try to build a custom chair out of high strength tube steel and foam padding. It’ll weigh like 8000 pounds, but it’ll hold up a car. Also, I got my fish tank up and running again. Only had to take the filter and lights apart a few times to fix them up, but it’s running real nice now. I could prolly shut one of the filters off just for the sake of saving power. It doesn’t need them both.. poor fish live in a swirling vortex of crystal clear water.

Remember the model I was building a while back? Yeah.. it went into the trash can yesterday. I knocked it off in the floor and stepped on it.. poor little car was flat as it could be. Oh, and my other uncle had a show cow die. It was cruel irony.. They had just given it a bath and were getting ready to put it on the trailor to take it to the Fort Worth stock show. Well, apparently giving a steer a bath is hungry work because they all left to get a hamburger before loading it. Well, when they got back, it had fallen over and strangled it’s self to death on the roap they used to tie it up. Still, it’s one less cow in the world, so I can’t complain. Other than complaining that they drug it into my yard where it sat for 4 days before the dead animal people came to pick it up.

Stuff

I’m not sick anymore.

An official date of Feburary 20th has been set for my move to Texas.  I have still yet to tell my mother or anyone else about it, though my aunt knows now.

On a related note…
