Is that mildew?
May. 3rd, 2009 09:54 pmSeriously. I was really looking forward to the Towson Spring Festival (an annual rite for me for oh, 20+ years now) and the Bowie Baysox' 'Bark in the Park' day, when everyone can bring their dog to the game. I also had goodies for some of the players and coaches. So it rains all freakin' weekend. And while I'm sure the Baysox game was called off, their web site has been down all day and no one answered the phone there, not even a recording. Thus a weekend at home with the telly.
I should have stuck with the telly. Still can't get the computer to recognize the new drive and I've tried a dozen different things. Mom wanted to get some things at Home Depot, so we went, and naturally it was pouring at the time - she wanted topsoil. She didn't mention this until we were standing in the rain looking at 40lb bags of the stuff. She wanted 10 of them. I cried uncle after loading 7 (most had holes and I think they had added a few more pounds per bag in rainwater). We went to the cashier and the cashier told my mother if she was growing vegetables, this was the wrong kind of soil. Go back and replace all 7 bags, which by the way are not only heavy as $%&*( but slick and slippery. Somewhere along the line I reopened the stress fracture in my left foot, which in turn aggravated my ankle and knee. And we still don't have soil.
At least 'Caprica' turned out to be reasonably decent and the UK 'Law & Order' is almost word for word the original episodes, just Anglicized. But supposed to keep raining for what, 5-6 more days? I'm still soaked!
