Spih-DERR

Alert, alert – I just saw a spider in my office!! He’s not very big but he’s gangly and creepy nonetheless. I wonder if he’s related to Mumford? My toe is itching now. I hope my office spider hasn’t already bitten me. And speaking of spider bites, Lean has a BIG gnarly one on her arm. You should see it – there’s even a weird bruise. I hope her arm doesn’t rot off. I should work the suicide hotline, huh?

Now my other foot is itching!

And speaking of Lean, she brought me a lovely pressie last night – a mint plant fresh from her Mama’s garden. It smells great. I grew mint once when I still lived in Bloomington but Abbs ate every bit of it. She also ate the basil I’d grown. I remember that I’d taken a nap one afternoon. It was a nice day so the door leading to my deck, where all my herbs were growing, was open. I fell asleep and was having a vivid dream about pesto – I could practically smell it. Then I woke up and found Abbs smiling in my face, breathing her basil breath on me after just having gobbled up the whole plant. Naughty girl!

MY LEG IS ITCHY!!!

And speaking of basil, Lean and I had our inaugural swim last night. We arrived at the pool to find two noodles, which we used to do all sorts of dirty things. My favorite trick is hooking up the noodle to an underwater jet and spraying water in Lean’s face - splashy! 

After swimming, we headed to Lean’s to watch the latest episode of Cathouse and a few season three episodes of Sex & the City. While we watched, I painted my nails a sassy dark ruby color called Beat Perle. Rawr!
