Pumpkin Soup from Toni
I was reading around on another diary site
and found that I wasn’t the only one that documented her time in jail. Only
they didn’t have a false victim and they deserve the sentence they got. Stolen
credit cards I guess. The thing is that this guy is posting while he’s there. I
guess it’s part of some future study or something like that. It still amazes me
that inmates have online access but they do. Anyway, they went in this month
and have an 8-month sentence to do.
While I was sleeping, Toni
gave us some pumpkin soup in a really nice bowl with a cover. The cover had a
little dial with numbers on it and I don’t know if that’s how long you’re
supposed to heat it up for or what. The dial was a little plastic cover attached
to the main cover, so I opened it so the soup could vent when heating it in the
microwave.
It was funny how she got
both our names wrong because she wrote on the box that it was for Jean and
David from Santa. Tom said she said that if we didn’t like it to just get rid
of it and put something in it that we like. He told her that while he doesn’t
like anything, I balance us out because I like everything. It was good too.
Perhaps just a touch spicy, but otherwise delicious.
I’ll go over and thank her one
of these days soon. I might even give her a diamond painting, but not too soon
because I don’t want her to think I’m only giving it to her because she gave us
the soup.
We went to a different CVS yesterday
morning. Every time I say I’m not going to get another doll, I do, LOL. Well,
at least I don’t collect like I used to. She’s 27 inches tall, but I could see
why she was only $12 when I pulled her out of the box. She’s made of a very
thin, lightweight plastic. Even her white injection mold shoes are. She wears a
pretty red dress with a heart in the center of it. She has brown eyes and reddish
hair in a ponytail with a red headband that matches her dress. She’s one of
those dolls that walks with you, but she doesn’t walk very well. Those things
never do, not that I got her for that, of course. She stands by my desk by the
door.
I also got some candy and
some blueberry wine. Never had blueberry wine before. It’s Blueberry Fruscato by
Barefoot only. It doesn’t taste very blueberry. White Merlot is my new
favorite, but this one didn’t have it.
Tom said that when he was
in back of the house the other day, he wondered if someone had a kennel because
off in the distance he could hear about eight dogs barking at once. Well, it’s
been a noisy night here so far. Although I don’t mean noisy in the way it was
at the old place. There is a dog somewhere in back that I can make out but it’s
soft enough not to be annoying. I think there are actually two dogs back there,
but one I hear much more often. I wonder if it’s someone working third shift because
it’s left out all night and I don’t see how the hell that person could sleep if
they were home. I feel bad for their neighbors!
I’ve also heard more than
enough motorcycles blazing down the roads outside the park. Fridays and
Saturday nights are the worst for that.
