my queue actually ran down. i’ve had a ridiculously long queue for months now but one week at the farm actually did it. amazing. i literally haven’t been on tumblr, more or less, for this whole week.

i drove back today and had 15 minutes before we went over to dude’s mom’s house for easter. i slept so poorly last night that was exhausted and i had this awful headache. we stayed for 5 hours or so and had a nice time– i’m glad we were there, otherwise dave’s mom would have been alone with her recently-widowed sister, and they’d have been fine but she wouldn’t have had an excuse to make all the Dinner With Trimmings which is the best thing ever, so.– but my head was splitting by the time we left. i took a nap and woke up not knowing where i even was. yikes. 

i’m glad to be in my own bed, though. the bed at my sister’s has such a firm mattress that i can’t sleep in any of my usual poses. i rely on there being some give in a mattress so that my shoulders can be in not-ergonomic positions without dislocating, and an insanely firm mattress doesn’t allow this, so there are almost no positions i can be comfortable in. if i sleep on my back like a vampire then my shoulders are ok but i think it makes me snore, i wake up with my sinuses wrecked. 

Anyway. next visit, i want to set up the yurt, which means hauling my mattress out of its first winter of storage and seeing if it busted or not. 

i’m glad to be in my own house and my own bed with my own cat (who has already given me more snuggles than i got from my sisters’ worthless fuzzballs all week) but i’m not looking forward to going back to my real job.

this is my favorite video of the year so far

looks like the devil won this round folks

[captions]

Voice [offscreen]: “Yeah, what y’all know about, um, getting your

kung-fu   nunchuck  panda on in the parking lot at a local Food Lion. Get it, my man! He out here doing it. Yeah, that’s right, I’m 58, 63 years old, out here on the side of my pickup truck in the Food Lion, and I’ll whoop a fool upside his head. I’m out here practicing, getting ready for Easter Sunday. Jesus gonna rise up, help him whoop the devil, right out here in the parking lot. Pickup truck, radio playing. Sunglasses, ain’t no sun. It’s cloudy, overcast. But I’m out here, with my gloves and my nunchuck. One man. One Lord. One faith. One baptism. Two nunchucks, up in the air like Mary-Lou Retton. Pow! Behind the back! Bust your finger, that hurt, uh huh! Yup, yup, shake it off, homie. Shake it off. Shake it off. Shake it off. Yup, told that finger. Uh! Yeaah buddy! Time to call it quits. Look like the devil won this round, folks. We have to get back in the car, get a bandaid, shake it off. Shake it off.”

watching this video is my yearly Easter celebration

The only easter tradition that matters.

Look I don’t know why I did this.

Easter dinner in Buffalo, with a phenomenal short video clip of the dreaded Victory Laugh at egg wars if you scroll thru.

(for the Tumblr crosspost, it doesn’t upload them all, and I can’t get videos to work, but if you click through I think it brings you to Instagram. The video clip is literally five seconds of Dude’s mom laughing like a total lunatic and it is solid fucking gold.)

aw i broke my 75-day streak on duolingo yesterday. it’s ok, it wasn’t really teaching me anything good. i need to buckle down and use the damn textbook i got from my dad instead.

to up the stakes, my bestie’s sister, who took russian in high school and invited me to send her letters in russian to practice, wrote back to my initial attempt, and oh. hoo boy. i don’t. uh. i don’t know any russian, it turns out.

lol!
