Ever since tom told me last year that Williams had stopped making pinball machines and that they had been the ONLY manufacturer, I’d been kinda bummed. But now, the makers of Berzerk (remember that video game?) have gone pinball – check out Stern Pinball – the World’s One and Only Manufacturer of Pinball Machines. I knew we couldn’t be pinball-less for long – the world’s just not right without pinball. *grin* (link via Memepool)

Why are the words “betrothal” and “brothel” so damn similar?

If you have trouble accessing this weblog or the consciouscreation.com domain in the next few days, that’s because we’re switching hosting services around. 🙂 I might also change around the names of the archives, but that probably won’t affect you unless you’ve saved bookmarks to them for god only knows why – LOL.

In the field between us and the river, which is owned by another rancher – not our landlord, there was a picnic today. Three pickups, an SUV, a sedan, and an RV were parked there. People pulled out coolers and lawn chairs – there were dogs and kids running around. Once again, I couldn’t let OUR dogs out because all they’d do is bark at THEM and I didn’t really feel like interrupting the family gathering. I spied on them through the venetian blinds though – they had an Easter Egg hunt (hunting for eggs in a field full of cow plops should have made for interesting work), kicked a soccer ball around, and even played HORSESHOES. Every ten minutes, Merlin heard a noise and jumped up and ran around barking – driving me NUTS. So I closed all the windows and turned on a couple of fans for white noise. After most of them had left (just a few moments ago) we went outside finally. Our brave dogs spent 15 minutes barking at the two LAWN CHAIRS that were still sitting out there. I feel SO safe with them around. *rolling eyes*

I scooted a bunny out of the yard this morning so the dogs wouldn’t chase it. However, I am NOT going to run around collecting the little roundish things it left behind – I’m extremely sure they aren’t Easter Eggs. *grin*
