April 31st

Thanks for sticking with me guys I have now (technically) done a blog post every day in the month of April. Booya. I will try to keep up the good work :)

I just love that whenever my boyfriend sees any redneck game that involves a gun and a 'big buck' he just has to play, and let me just add that the girls in these games were not as slutty when Jon Greene was playing these things, yeesh. No woman in her right mind would wear than on a safari for crying out loud!

Sooooo this is not normally underwater. This is an ampitheater in our local park on the banks of the Big Muddy River. Needless to say the river, much like the mighty Mississippi has gone way above and beyond its normal flood levels and it has been pretty wet around here. But while levees are being blown up a matter of miles away we just sustained some basement flooding so we are lucky. I do not want to float away down the Big Muddy what a gross way to go out.

Marcella T McGee came to visit us in So. Ill and it was wonderful! She instantly bonded with Anna, we ate toasted raviolli in the restaurant where they were invented and we watch the royal wedding of the season! It was a fabulous visit and I can only hope that she has returned to Cleveburg and tell the tale about how while small and midwestern Murphysboro and Elm St in particular are still a fun visit :)

So this is Grace Egan Hutton! She is my friend Laurens baby and she has finally made her big debut into the world! Hurray! Lauren has informed me that Egan is a family name but also means 'fiery one' which she said was appropriate because little Grace gave her so much heartburn. They decided to wait and find out the whether baby precious cargo would be a boy or girl so I had to buy all unisex stuff for shower presents but the Huttons better watch out because I really know how to do pink and sparkly wayyyy better than yellow and sexually ambiguous :)

Congrats you two I am so happy for you and cannot wait to meet Princess Grace!

Thanks for all your concern guys but we have not blown away yet. Our basement however is very wet and gross indeed. Gus has been waging a war with our sump (?) pump but so far it is to little avail because it won't friggin stop raining no matter how whiny or pouty I am. Stupid rain. I need it to stop asap because I am super tired of being damp and having to share a bathroom with Hermie again. Boys are super gross. Anyway if you want to see our riveting newscast from my county it can be viewed here.....
