***SURGERY & RECOVERY VIBES***
for you, DR vixmom

***PATIENCE VIBES***
for the whole vixfamily!!!!

She didn't need the surgury after all...):( Mean doctor's are messing with my Mama.  *Gets big stick* Where's that hospital.

Go get 'em, DR The Vixter!!

Also, I have a strange tale to tell you all. I had a dream last night, and it was really scary whie I was in it, but I told Mom and Dad about it and we couldn't stop cracking up. So here I go.

I was in a Post-Apoctaliptic town with my parents, and everyone on this site. we were a group of people who still wanted to live in this town peacefully. I don't really know why; all the buildings were on fire and collapsing, and dead people were lying around everywhere, it was horrible. And there was another group of people who were around the town somewhere who also wanted to live here. But for some reason, we couldn't live together, and we had all decided (both groups) to blow the other "team" all to pieces. SO, our "team" was having a pep talk on how to flush the other group out, in order to shoot them down, and someone brought up the subject of "bait".

Two minutes later, I was tied to the front of an SUV, in a x shape, and we were on our way, driving at a compleatly homicidal speed. Of course, I freaked out and started screaming, But Bruce leaned out the window of the driver's seat ( he was driving) and yelled"Shut up!! You'll give away our position!!!!" So I shut up. Meanwhile, Bruce, Fred, and Jose were all holding those guns you see soldiers carrying around, and shooting at people out of there windows. And Bruce was STILL driving, even though those guns take two hands to hold. Also, all three men had on war paint. And it was horrible, we shoot down ALOT of people, and ran a couple over, and then we pulled over to a partial brick wall.

At this point, a random woman who I swear I have never seen before in my life, with really messed up brown hair jumps in front of the now staitionary veicle, starts petting me like a two year old would pet a dog on the head ( otherwise known as, painfully) and was shrieking at the top of her voice at me "YOU'RE SUCH A GOOD KID!!!! YOU'RE SUCH A GOOD KID!!!!!" At this point, Mom came out of the car, and shot the woman, then looked at me and said somthing along the lines of, " Your old teachers are really stupid, you know that?"

At this point, Mom woke me up to tell me that she and Dad were going to the doctor's now. I said good-bye, locked the door after them, and then was scared out of my wits for the next ten minutes because I didn't want to go back to sleep. After the ten minutes was up, I think I passed out on my bed for about two more hours.

This experiance has taught me three important things.
1) I should write action movies about the Apocolypse.
2) I never want to play " Chicken", or any other stupidly car based game where people can die.
3) NEVER eat M+M's fifteen minutes before you go to sleep.

                                                                             Love,
                                                                                     
                                                                                    Vixter.

Picked up Om Shanti Om at the mail place, and have done a few errands and am now making some spaghetti with leftover sauce for lunch.  Have to stay away from the pound of kugel I have here - must eat that very judiciously.

Before I went to the movie this morning, I stopped into the bodega up the street to grab an "egg'n'cheese on a roll".  Well, as I waiting for my sandwich to be prepared, I noticed this on the shelves...

*Strangely enough, the expiration date on that "Valentine" treat was sometime in January 2009.  -At first I had thought - had hoped - it was a leftover from Valentine's Day 2008.

Tis the day after Christmas, and all through the house
the aroma of spaghetti sauce wafts deliciously about
me as I type this short post.

Today I mailed three (count 'em three) boxes to myself
filled with wonderful foodstuffs that I cannot procure in
Oakland CA.  I also got two more boxes, brought them
home and they are now packed and ready to go.

I'm going to have loads of wonderful foodstuffs to put
the "r" in my "larder".

This evening, my aunt and uncle will be dining with us and
having spaghetti.  I made a huge pot full so my mom can freeze
the sauce and have it later when she wants it.

I still have Saturday, Sunday and Monday morning left to do any
of the things I might recall needing doing.  Frankly, I think it's all
done, but I'm certain we'll find something more to do.

Okay, I'm wondering who everyone else thinks that woman is in the vixter's nightmdream.   The "random woman" with the "really messed up brown hair."

Could it have been a Hainsie/Kimlet that the vixter's subconscious concocted from posts she has read here?

Hmmmmmm....??

;D

Shopping was good. Got to the mall at 11:45am. It officially opened at 1pm. But the food court was open. And the deli. And a bunch of stores that open early every year.

I went to Sephora (they opened about 10 minutes early). And also to Hallmark (they discount 50% extra on all their Christmas/Chanukah stuff.

There was a huge line-up at HMV. ANd also at a "game" store.  The weirdest huge line-up for me was at the store formerly called PINK (it goes by some longer name now). They had a sign that said everything extra 50%. The line was ridiculously long outside the store and then inside the store at the cash.

By 4pm when i left the mall was so crowded. ALthough it was really really crowded at 12:50pm as well. And at that time everyone was walking in the aisles.

It wasn't too bad leaving because the stores stay open on friday till 9pm.

I have several ideas but I'm keeping mum. Could it be someone who posts infrequently?

It's terribly foggy here tonight and i have to drive in about 30 minutes from the country into town for dinner. I could use some driving vibes tonight, please. Please?

No, I'm serious, I have NEVER seen a person like this before. It was crazy. I mean, take a normal looking lady, rip up her sleeves and jeans, give her Hermione Granger hair-o-heel, and place her in a senario like my dream, and you got her. Besides, I don't think she couldv'e been from the site if I hadn't met her on here yet, and the fact that everyone from the site was either in the SUV, or probaboly back at base camp shooting some squirrls or somthing... in the mean time, I have decieded to dub this woman "Hell Lady."

Remember Peggy - our foster Pit Bull - the one Magic Mommy wouldn't let in the house because "pit bulls are vicious and I won't have one near my children".

Then there is Son-law who insisted:

A.   He only wanted a pure - breed, and not but not a puppy.
B.   Wanted to visit the pet stores to look for dogs
C.   Thought maybe a Labradoodle was the best choice

Well meet Dixie - Local SPCA resident:
