Carrie-on Baggage: The first half of our lives is ruined by our parents, and the second half by our children.

Tuesday, July 28, 2009

The first half of our lives is ruined by our parents, and the second half by our children.

So I totally slept in today. Don't judge me, just be happy I'm here, I spent all 20 minutes of getting ready trying to talk myself into going back to bed. I don't listen very well.

SYTYCD
I thought it was important to get you all these SYTYCD spoilers-I know you are chomping for them!
Evan/Melissa - Broadway by Tyce and Quickstep by Louis Van Amstel
Kayla/Brandon - Contemporary by Stacy Tookey and Disco by Doriana Sanchez
Jeanine/Ade- Hip Hop by Napoleon & Tabitha and Rumba by Louis Van Amstel

Spoilers for the top 6 results episode:
*Musical guest is Sean Paul.
*Dance guests are Jabbawockeez.

If I get more info tomorrow, like who the guest judge is and how particular people did, I'll let you know!

Random
It feels like this has already been THE LONGEST WEEK EVER! And it's only Tuesday, I have to keep reminding myself. I seriously need to get it into gear.

House
My house is falling apart. Would anyone like to come clean it for me? Seriously? I'll make you lasagna. I'm available next weekend. It's starting to give me an anxiety attack and we have just been so busy…

Harry Potter
Can you believe I seriously haven't seen this movie yet? SERIOUSLY! I have another grand plan of going this Sunday-but Seth's already talking about how much work he will have to do on his project since it's due Monday. And I like to avoid epic meltdowns of my husband. He's completely useless to me once that happens.

The Closer
This was a great episode last night. I really liked all the twists and turns, although I knew from the get go who the killer was.

Secret
Secret shout out to Pam and Jason who are the sweetest bestest friends ever. They know why. You made me cry-enough said!

London Calling
Actually it's work. Sorry this is so abbreviated, but like I said-I slept in. Hee.

PS
One of the igoogle quotes (where I get the subject line quotes) was Eddie Izzard! I wanted to use it but it was too long! Dang it!

Love (to work from home-how do people get those jobs?),
Carrie

About me

An almost daily blog of Carrie's ramblings that come from her baggage in life. Carrie lives with her disgustingly smart husband, amazing daughter bulldozer son and two Bengal cats in Colorado Springs. She is an avid reader and an obsessive television watcher. She loves to travel, sleep, snuggle and generally be friggin awesome. She suffers a smartphone addiction. She makes inane pop culture references. She hopes one day someone will give her a talk show where she talks about all the tv she watches, gossip she reads about on the internet, and life observations she has. Comments and followers make me blog more frequently, its a guilt thing.

Things you should know:

Hi All!
My name is Carrie and this is my blog-I know, you are so excited.
Please feel free to leave your comments below, but if you want to contact me directly, shoot me a line at
carriehellbusch (at) gmail dot com
I think that's the fancy way everyone does it so they don't get spam.
And please don't send me mean things. That would just make me delete this whole section and it took me like 15 minutes to figure out how to put it on here. I didn't say I was a wiz at computers, I just married one-and he's busy trying to create Skynet...
Love (to ramble incessantly),
Carrie

About the Kidtens

I have two Bengal Cats-Bagheera and Willow. Willow is the girl and the spotted snow and Bagheera is the boy and the spotted dark. They are fixed so we can't breed them-my Pops is still mad at me for that. I would love to tell you about my breeder, but they were pretty horrible and apparently don't exist anymore. This could be because Bengals are illegal in Omaha (I live in Omaha's Sarpy County, which is not Omaha, it's an SID) or because they had 26 cats in a tiny corner of the basement stacked on top of each other.

Willow was actually our second choice in snows. We decided to get two because Bengals are notoriously active and we didn't want one to get lonely and eat our house while we were gone. Willow gets smarter every day. She recently figured out how to turn on the sinks, which bodes well with her love of water. She loves Seth more than anything, but has been known to cuddle with me too when I'm sad. She's a sweet girl. She also will NOT SHUT UP. If you wonder what a conversation with a cat is like, come chat with Willow. Willow is also known as Willow Bee, the Beezus, and Pretty Kitty.

Bagheera is your typical boycat. He sleeps with us most nights and we have worked out a "snacks for snuggles" barter system. He gives you love on his terms. Bagheera was born with a bad right back leg. The breeders told us that he broke it in the womb because there was too many kittens in the litter. The vet told us that he didn't know a thing about it until days later. So far he uses it like peg leg and it doesn't bother him at all. We talked to the vet about getting it fixed but the vet says the way he uses it, like a pirate, it wouldn't heal properly and he still would try to use it like he does. It doesn't bother me and it doesn't bother him so we are cool. The breeders told me they were going to put him down because they couldn't sell him and the price of the "surgery" would outweigh his "value". I practically snatched him and ran. They gave him to me for free. He has an amazing coat-show quality. I wonder if there is a cat show special olympics... Bagheera is also known as Baggy, Bags,Doots, Stinky Boy Kitty, and Buddy Bear.

Anyway that's me, Carrie-patron Saint of lost causes and handicats.
