Stink bugs, explosion and what I'm reading this week

One moment.

Dear rat bastard stink bugs.  I know you think that you will seek refuge in our home for the winter but you thought wrong.  The Mr is hellbent on destroying you and I'm tired of feeling like one of the plagues has taken residence on our screen door.  You WILL go down...tell your friends.  Word to your mutha.

While the construction crew didn't dig up my internet wires yesterday, they did explode something or a house dropped out of the sky on a striped sock wearing witch...definitely one of the two.  But since I don't recall seeing a mushroom cloud, maybe it was the house.  I cannot wait for them to be done with everything.  It's been 2 years of it happening on either side of us and I don't even bother washing the car anymore because every day it's coated with more construction dust.  Bleh.

Now that I have those two pet peeves out of the way, let's get on with...

Justin Timberlake Shows Us How Dumb We Sound Using Hashtags  (This is why I don't use hashtags.  The first time I heard this, I wanted to punch the Mr square in the bozak for playing it but it makes a real point...society is plummeting into idiocy if we continue to accept this as language.  Now get off my damn lawn, you kids!)

We've got a wedding to go to tomorrow and it's kind of spaced weird so it's going to be an all day thing.  Sigh.  There wouldn't be a 3 hour gap between the wedding and reception if they just consulted me as soon as they were engaged.  I only planned my wedding for 4 years...two of them with an actual fiance.  ;-)

How about you?  What's on tap for the weekend?

  1. Interesting reading for sure.

    I've got a three day weekend, but not really. I'll have to go in to work after a bit and get my plans all set up for next week. Doing that today means I get an actual weekend with no homework though so it's worth it. I had hoped to have and actual 3 day weekend, but it just didn't happen.

    I don't know what the actual plan is, but I will so enjoy my first real weekend since the school year started.

  2. I really like your Friday "What I'm Reading" ...interesting to see what I've already read, and what titles seem interesting. Always nice to share and spread the word about interesting articles. I wonder if you turned it into a link up if you'd get a good response. I know I'd participate ...

  3. I don't think I've ever encountered stink bugs in person. I guess I should consider myself lucky, huh? I hope you have a good weekend!

  4. I had the day from hell yesterday with 7 hours of testing for work. I walked through the door and burst into tears. The poor hubs and dogs just all stared at me with their heads cocked to the side. BUT I finished Day 17 of the workout despite the waterfall. Today mom is coming over for the hubs birthday/our anniversary, so I've been cleaning the house and am heading upstairs to due Day 18. I plan on taking it easy this weekend after the draining work week. I may attempt to make some mini fruit hand pies if I find the gumption. Enjoy the wedding! =o)
