Stuff! I promised someone STUFF!

This first video is of my little munchkin cookin' supper. She just turned 8 and she loves to cook so we decided to buy everything she needed to make one of our favorite meals, Sour Cream Enchiladas. She did an awesome job! They were great. Sorry for me talking in the background, sounding like an idiot.



Then, here is a video that I took of the wind in the field across the way. We live on the edge of town and it was very very windy the other day. As I pulled up after work, I saw how the green field looked a lot like waves. I thought i'd share it - not only the kansas wind but the waves of green as well. Sorry for the crappy quality on this one. My recorder is super cheap Wally World special, but damn if it doesn't do everything, so I like it. Small enough to take with me everywhere I go, in my purse, in case something strikes my fancy. :)

I scream, you scream, we all......yeah.

I swear that, generally speaking, those people that work in the fast food industry are idiots. Yes, there are lots of exceptions. Yes, I've worked fast food before. Yes, I was also an idiot.
But, just as Joe Pesci's rant goes, "They FUCK you in the drive-thru." (go ahead, name that movie.)

Every single time I go to Dairy Queen and order my German Chocolate Blizzard, it's different. Sometimes, they forget the nuts. On occasion, there's hardly any actual chocolate in it. Tonight, they put fuckin' brownies in it. I don't have anything against brownies - love them actually, but I didn't order a German Chocolate CAKE Blizzard. It's not bad, but it's not what I wanted. How damn difficult can it be to make it? Don't they have a recipe to make the damn things? I know that when I worked at McDonald's, they were very picky about the amount of things we put in the McFlurries.

And to make matters worse, they can never, ever mix it right. You know - all the good stuff is either stuck on top or bottom, with the opposite being nearly all plain ice cream. Tonight, there are a billion brownie chunks floating on top.

Ugh. It's just so annoying. A simple thing, yes, but still just dumb.

Edited Later: yeah, there's no fucking coconut in it either. *sigh*

How much is that birdie in the window?

I took the kids to school the other day, just like I do any other day. Came home afterwards and got ready for work. As i'm walking out to my car with an armload of stuff, I notice movement in the car. I kinda tiptoe up there to see what's there and see wings. The girls had left one window down about six inches and a Cardinal had somehow managed to find it's way into the car. It was frantically banging it's head against the glass trying to get out. I simply walked back into the house, grabbed my camera and came back out, hoping it was still there. Sure enough, it was. I got real close trying to get a picture, even tried a video but it was too crappy to share. I was close enough, though, to see that birds are fairly warm-blooded - moreso than i'd really thought - and that as this scared little bird was resting between bouts of panic, his breaths would leave little, tiny puffs of fog on the window. I wish i'd gotten that on video! I'd never really have thought a bird would be warm enough to fog up glass!

Without further ado, see the inside of my car with a special, frantic little bird on the window edge.


And because I had to unload the camera anyway, I wanted to share a video of my girls dancing, before they went out to their first father/daughter dance.
