(There's your Spongebob quote of the day. Also, why is it that I had my LJ's name at Smitty Werben Jaegerman Jensen, #1, and NO ONE GOT IT? That saddens me.)
So, people who know me know that I looooooove being there for people. It's my way of saying, "Can I buy your love with either food, wine, or assistance?" Just my way of saying that. Lol.
My new buddy (the one with the brains and pool, I need to come up with a nickname for her...) called and asked if I could pinch hit and pick up one of her kids from the high school. Absolutely! She then asked me if I would mind terribly if I was their "emergency contact" for the kids in their various schools. I was really touched by that. OF COURSE, was my response, then I laughed as I realized that being an ER contact for a friend's kids is the suburban equivalent of being a Mafioso's godparent. Hee.
I'm about to dig up my entire garden out front and re-do it. 1) I am crazy pants and 2) I love digging. Also, I feel like it's a jumble, and I want a more cohesive look. Eh, I'll probably give up half way through and just sit with a mojito and a book.
And I have a new internet name for my buddy: PoolBrains. Sometimes the simplest solution is the best one. Ha ha ha.

You can often hear that name called out in my house. Quickly followed by, "HE WAS NUMBER ONE!"
It's good for when you've watched too much America's Best Dance Crew.
Awww, that's so nice that your friend puts such trust in you! That's very cool. And PoolBrains works well, I think!
It's nice and it makes me feel like an actual Grown Up. Heeeee.
and i do remember that song.
what do you want to change about your garden? lots of fall flowers now? you and i have a much longer growing season. i just planted more peas and corn, and i'm harvesting tomatoes by the basketful. most of the 'maters are from pittsburgh. as in, the plant that ate. we had one 'mater plant that kind of exploded all over our yard. seriously. over 6 foot tall now. i think this is where the former house owner must have buried all the trick or treaters over the years.....
And yeah, we'll see how far I get before I decide the two don't have to match, lol.
how much room will you have left after the pool? and do i have swimming priviledges? :D i know, right after i'm well enough to travel. meaning, never.
My mind went directly to Brainpool, so does that make you more left brain and me more right?
I find that having the keys to six houses on my block is the equivalent of a NYC super. Do you have any idea how often teenagers lock themselves out of the house? It's hilarious. I really like the trust, though. And the access to eggs when I run out in the middle of a cooking project. Yes, I call and ask for permission first.
Oooh, when someone gives you keys to their house! The likelihood of you ever needing to do more than go in and water a plant or let a pet outside is minimal, but YOU HAVE THE KEY, SHOULD YOU BE NEEDED. Maybe this could be worked into the Lousy Superhero concept? ;)
Ahahaha, I love that you have access to eggs when in need. And you're good to ask them beforehand!
I've been asked to go turn the coffee off at two different houses this week! The school year has begun.
I'm so glad that you have a PoolBrains friend, an intoxicing combination, though don't do what I just did and mispell it to say PooBrains, which is PoolBrains annoying younger sibling.
I say mojito/book, because I like how you have your front garden and also I'm very lazy.
I think I might have to switch it to Brainpool, which sounds like a smart secret organization that takes over things and makes them awesome.
Also, I am very lazy. Which is why I'm pouring a glass of wine and trying to decide if chunks of cheese and toast is a satisfactory dinner for growing children...
mafia, lol. She's really greT. Smart, funny, doesn't get offended, very fun to be with. I haven't had a close friend in hugging distance inso LNG, I can't remember!!
Plus, she's a skydiver!! I'm sure I'll get her into Buffy in no time. ;)
You need to add forty thousand cool points to your tally, imo. ;)
