things you can do....at 2:10 a.m.

clean out your freezer. i mean reeeeaaaaalllllyyyyyy clean it out.

the eyeballs popped open zombie style at 2:00 this morning. i tried to go back to sleep but after 10 minutes of flopping gave up the ghost and got the hell up.

went downstairs, opened the freezer to get some ice for a glass of coke and realized there were not any cubes. just a frozen mass in the bottom of the icemaker. this has happened before and i am always the one that cleans it.

so i get a big knife and start chopping. i finally broke enough out to be able to pull the whole assembly out and run hot water over it.

i look at the rest of the freezer and it looks like a post nuclear war frozen tundra. it's a nice kenmore side by side. so i proceed to pull everything out and clean it up.

down at the bottom there is a frozen mass under a drawer. i finally break the drawer loose and get it out. the big knife does wonders. i start running hot water over the frozen mass that i have put into the sink.

there were all kinds of goodies in there. it was kind of a food version of encino man but there was no brendan fraser shaped bag of nuts at the bottom. after melting every bit of ice i found i used a towel to dry everything off and re-inserted 90% of the items back in the freezer.

the other 10% went into the shitcan.

i wrote a really long blog on friday and was ready to post it and then i stupidly thought, i'll add a picture to the post. and dumbass me did not copy and paste the post to word before i went down that suicidal lane of add photo. bad idea.....f'in lockup time. i really gave it forever to right the ship but blogger was having no part of it.

had a pretty good weekend and got much done around the house.

left for work this morning right before 5:00 and it was literally raining hell outside. mi gato, smokey had wanted out a little earlier and when i left, his ass was wet as hell and he wanted back into the casa. i unlocked the door and laughed at him and let him back in as a wet cat is fo' damn sho' a funny sight.

there was actually some very small hail hitting the ground whilst i drove to work. thank god for the new rubber on my whip. the new kumhos were scoffing at the rain piled across cemetery road. they made short work of it and i arrived safely at my place of employ.

i know this is boring as shit, who gives a shit what dahbeed does at 2:10 in the a.m. i just thought i'd drop a line and say hola.

talked to a honduran friend the other night and he might be hookin' me and my bud that wanted to go to buenos aires up with a cheap flight to the island of roatan. it would be the end of this month.

the water off roatan is second to none in the world. the folks are laid back and you can eat lobster very cheaply every single night as they have a ton of lobster boats there. i'm 50/50 on it right now. if i go, i will have some good stories as i always have a good time in central america.

your buddy,

the defroster,

dahbeed.

I am often awake at 2:00 a.m. I've never cleaned my freezer out though. Since I am usually up, maybe I should do something like that instead of just laying on the couch watching whatever crap is on t.v.

i tried watching t.v. at that time and there ain't jack-shit on at that time of day 'cept fo' infomercials.

if i wake up early tomorrow i'll attack the fridge side of the side by side.

i'm such a good woman. i am a cleaning dynamo. i am fast and furious when it comes to cleaning things. a veritable tazmanian devil of limpiando.

i also busted out some exercise on the ellyptical trainer around 4:15 this a.m. i was huffin' and puffin'in the basement watching an old x-files.

what a freakin' loser existence of a life....but it's the only one i got.

Well, it's like they say...

"If life gives you lemons, make lemonade"

It's good to see you're doing something with yourself, since you're already up. Quick question though...

Doesn't cleaning up things make a lot of noise? What does Miguelito and the Misses think of this?

i wonder if they show x-files at 2 a.m. i catch it sometimes on sci fi. i was a huge x-files fan, until they ruined it, in my opinion. how can you have an x-files without mulder? i noticed it was on scifi this morning but the kids were up so it's noggin all the way. i'm seriously going to do some clutter drawer cleaning or something next time.

condray, you forget, the esposa es sorda....(deaf).

and miguelito....that sumbuck and dahbicito could both sleep through a train passing through the middle of the house.

lilliott, you are correct, it was x-files sans mulder. barely what one would consider x-files lite. it has the dude that was in t-2.

proud to claim my geeky self as a very early x-philiac. i used to axe my co-workers, "hey, are you watching this new show called x-files?"

they always looked at me as if i had two heads....until it got popular to watch it....then they were all x-files fans.

i used to love to watch lance henriksen as frank black on millenium and then cap my friday night's off with the latest installment of fox mulder and dana scully.

heh-heh....obviously this loser existence is not a recent phenomenon.....carry on!

the word verification is XQAHNO...sounds like some kind of killer mexican weed doesn't it?

Yeah, I think I smoked some of that a few years back! It put me into a coma for about 6 hours!

I wish I could sleep through a lot of noise. Adrianne is the same way. She's a deep sleeper. Me, I think I'm half awake most of the time. Somehow I still dream though. Strange stuff!

My word verification is "ywbsria". It sounds like a newly formed country in the former Yugoslavia area. I can see the conversation now:

Homeboy #1 "Hey man! Where ya from?"
Homeboy #2 "Oh, I from Ywbsria."
Homeboy #1 "Can I buy a vowel with that?"
