disappearances and donuts

last week i watched a E Online show (it wasn't that true Hollywood story thingie because the people weren't even remotely famous... hmm, now i wonder what it was and why on earth i was watching it because i never watch E except Fashion Police) about a family who went missing in the middle of the night from San Diego.  puff!  and they were gone into thin air.  with two kids as well.  and they left all their money in the bank ($100k) and they didn't feed their dogs first or rehome them (which automatically makes them assholes in my book, unless they were killed but there was no blood...) ... ever since i have wondered day and night what happened to them.  i wish my mind had an off switch :| 

now i notice that the vegan bakery by my house that i have never been in, even though i really want to, because i no longer eat real food - just dust and salad, is suddenly deserted.  still with the pretty little cakes and sandwiches in the glass display cases... and no sign about being on vacation or a power outage or emergency surgery or nothing :|  i am deeply worried.  and not just because SOMEDAY i was going to be thin enough to try their peanut butter torte either :( 

today is the day that if Nibbles were pregnant following that incident where i got the boy and girl rats all mixed up and let Nibbles and Smokey spend an entire day together, she would give birth to one million babies :|  but she is still Angelina Jolie-ly thin and spooky... so i'm thinking she and Smokey didn't hook up which is good. but since Angelina Jolie is really thin and spooky, and has one million kids also, i'm not sighing a huuuuge sigh of relief and putting away my little hat making knifty knitter just yet.......

in three weeks we are going to Vegas.  without kids.  for enough time to actually put clothes on hangers.  i know.  i absolutely freaking fracking cannot wait to escape!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  and it's our 16th anniversary too!  and they have Dunkin Donuts there and really great coal fired pizza!  hurray for Vegas!!  

which reminds me... Dunkin Donuts is coming to California!!  i know - again... they were here in 1997 for approximately 2 months but were chased out by that Fen Phen/Atkins craze.  but now they're coming back!!  the bad news: the first store is in Camp Pendleton.... which is grossly unfair!!   i refuse to join the military just to get a damned jelly donut :|  i think it's a government plot to get people to join the military but it won't work - i won't fall for it!

today i am walking to Irvine to get a new book from the library.  it's 8 miles roundtrip - i need a detour from the vegan bakery to quiet my inner worries about a possible abduction or murder.  and i have to call the bank because i paid in checks yesterday and typed all the amounts in wrong - surely they deal with complete fools like me all the time and know how to handle that???!  off to school and beyond!!
