worrying and wondering and wishing

desperately worried about
a lost bottle of Oil of Olay that for some reason has been out for delivery and arrived back at UPS twice already today... you know the UPS man ripped open the package and tried it. he opens all my mail... last week it was the christmas cards, which he disfigured beyond recognition, to look too dark and ugly and he also made all the folds off center, so i would have a meltdown when they arrived :( anyway i bet he was so stunned by the results that he was forced to return to UPS HQ to share his smoother, firmer skin with his colleagues, who all rushed to order their own bottle. i am not stupid :|

also worried about
finding a perfect, shiny, but not black (any color but black) ipod speaker dock thingie that fits an ipod touch in a rubber speck case, before christmas for Sam (shhhhhhhh.....)

wondering how
to remove black sticky tar from my fingers and fingernails. it won't come off - i am going to have to just brutally hack off my nails, i think.... i can't think what else to do :(

wishing to
print pictures but the thought of dealing with "Macx" at the Costco photo lab, who once actually took a coffee break - a walk-outside-and-drink-coffee-and-talk-to-the-highlighter-smiley-face-person in the middle of being the only cashier on duty, just makes my equilibrium go sideways. everytime i go in there i wonder how on earth there hasn't been a mass shooting. because someday someone (not me - i don't have a gun for this very reason) is going to walk into Tustin Ranch Costco and do something they later deeply regret :|

wondering
how many cats bumps you from simple 'cat lover' status to 'crazy cat woman'. there's this cat at our shelter, and i love him. ok... there are several - Patrick and Oreo and Hobie. they are all in a cage together so clearly they get on just fine... but to say i love Patrick is an understatement... if i was a female cat, he would be my George Clooney and i would keep a picture of him on my hello kitty iphone for emergencies :)
(just like this picture :) Patrick is the one on the right by the way. i know the similarity is startling, right?! :)


wondering
if 64 cents is enough to get a letter to Canada. i really should double check these things before mailing.... they keep me awake at night

also wondering
if any of these 'facts' are true (the cat one i am SURE is a lie!)
  • ferrets are currently the third most popular pet in the US
  • a cat can sprint at about thirty-one miles per hour
  • a goldfish can live up to 40 years
  • dogs have about 100 different facial expressions, most of them made with the ears
  • armadillos have four babies at a time and they are always all the same sex - they are also the only animal besides humans that can get leprosy
hmmm.... off to do some googling how fast cats can run. back later xoxox

    hubby says diesel fuel will remove any tar problem; GoJo handcleaner (found at your local automotive parts dept.)works pretty well and is easier on your skin. i think you can trust him, even though his hands are quite fossil-esque with layers of carbon filling in his fingerprints......
