Hot Off the Presses

Ok, so maybe this isn't really a newsworthy moment, but I was amused and surprised to say the least. Any of you who went to Durango HS a few years ago or hang out at church at all probably know who Daryl is. Here's a little reminder: he enjoys riding his bike a lot, he has some very distinct features, he likes to inappropriately hit on women, he tries to be a pseudo-security officer in the parking lot and likes driving around the golf cart. In my new spirit of kindness since it has come to my attention that some readers think that I am mean (wink. wink.), I hope that description suffices. Well, we haven't seen Daryl around for a little while, so I thought that maybe his bike got a flat tire ot maybe he had even been asked to stay away for a while. So, when I went into the office today I was surprised to see who else but Daryl swaggering around the joint. He came up to me and thrust his hand in my face and said, "Look!" I obliged and saw a thin gold band around his left ring finger. OMG! Daryl got married! I couldn't believe it! I guess it happened about a month ago which would explain his absence of late. I said, "Wow, Daryl, I didn't even know that you had a girlfriend!" I'm not known for my tact in these situations. He seemed very proud and I was secretly jumping for joy, because hopefully this means that he won't hit on me anymore! Hallelujah! Some people on staff have met his "other half", but I will not repeat what they have said lest I be labeled mean again. :) I guess there really is someone for everyone. Wow.

Here are some other notes from Tuesday so far:

The temptation of the pool finally got to Molly, so she celebrated the Summer Solstice with an impromptu swim. Too bad I didn't know about it until I let Dobby and her in and noticed her dripping fur. Since she is enjoying the first day of Summer so much, she can hang out side a while longer and dry off!

My cell phone broke on Saturday and I am anxiously awaiting it's replacement thanks to Verizon phone insurance. Of course, FedEx came today while I was gone and didn't leave the phone, so I get to deal with a falling apart POS for another day. Joy!

Thanks for wishing the 106 degree heat on us, Lisa! Ya' got your wish plus a little humidity for good measure. Yum, hot and muggy.

Let's see... anything else? I guess just the usual. So, I'll bid you adieu and mourn the loss of any chance I ever had with Daryl. Margaritas, anyone!
