    I keep stuff.

    No… I’m not a hoarder. Well… Not in the sense of having piles of crap everywhere. In fact, as we have aged, E K and I have been streamlining and jettisoning our excess crap. What I’m talking about keeping is information. In particular, electronic documents containing cut and pastes of things I found interesting, things I’ve written, notes I’ve taken… That sort of stuff. So, while it is a bit of a hoarding situation, at least my stash is contained to a 1 terrabyte HD that still has all sorts of room on it – therefore, when I up and croak, my kid isn’t going to have to do much other than hit delete… Unless, of course, she decides to sell the info to someone. Who knows? Some of what I wrote might be worth a nickel or two after I’m all corpsified.

    So, anyway, as I was organizing my electronic piles of data, I ran across one of my exchanges on FB that I had felt compelled to copy and paste. I still get a chuckle out of it. Y’all might too. Or not.

    ME: Dining room floor stripped, scrubbed, steamed, waxed, and buffed. Supper installed. Now continuing Beer 6.0 installation.

    MARY: wow! I can’t seem to find that program on the microsoft website… can you direct me? I will even buy a pirate copy if needed. LOL!

    ME: Which one, Mary? Beer 6.0 or adult playdate? 🙂

    MARY: Beer 6.0 I don’t need – I have Wine 6.0; Adult playdate is already installed and currently running, I’m talking Handyman 7.0. LOL!

    ME: Ohhhh, that one. Well, you see Handyman 7.0 is a forced install by my sysadmin, E K and it takes some adjunct software to get it running. She generally starts with booting into her secondary operating system, Dominatrix 8.2.6, then locally installs Stiletto Heels 5.0, Leather 9, and Whip 10.7A. After that she does a remote format then pushes a ghost image of Subservient Husband 4.2 across the network. Once SH is up and running all versions of Handyman, up to and including 8.0 Beta install with no issues whatsoever.  She’s invested quite a bit in the upgrades too. I can’t begin to name them all, but in the way of add-on modules she even has stuff like Electrician 2.8, Groundskeeper 3.0, Chef 2.1, Masseur 5.9, and Plumber 1.5.3 (although she hacked the latter to insert a “no butt crack” subroutine)…

    And there you have life at my house…

    No, not the singer…

    No, not the movie… Well, not THAT movie, anyway…

    The Global Climate Change gifted us with a wicked, wet and cold winter, which has now been followed by a horrid, hot and dry summer. Almost everything has been worse this year – the ants, the Japanese Beetles, and even the winged, stinging hornets and yellow jackets. And, as is usually the case, Her Supreme Evilness has gone into eradicate mode. Over the years I have commemorated her various attacks upon the “bad” insects with a movie parody.  In this instance, however, I never saw the movie – just the original series – and I don’t want to massage a wiki (damn… that sounds kinda dirty) to make it fit the E K mythos.

    However, as we all know, sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words, and I always try to include a ‘shopped movie poster. So… here it is. Her Supreme Redheaded Evilness versus the stinging swarm that has invaded our soffit…
