Smiting, and hell handbaskets

Well, my day went to hell in a handbasket yesterday, after that last post. Our power is still messed up. Maybe. Still working on all those issues and will keep you posted, but in the meantime…

2006 Cardinals At-Bat Songs

So I’m listening away here and I realized that even thought I’ve told ya’all that I have the 2006 Cardinal At-Bat Songs, I’ve never shared the list with you, thereby becoming the definitive internet source for the 2006 Cardinal At-Bat Songs. We can’t let that continue.

Ameren, O Ameren – An Ode

Ameren, O Ameren
You delightful cur
Full of surprises and tricks
I’m so thrilled that last evening
My home had too much power
Causing me and M to frolic about
Unplugging every friggin’ appliance we own
So as not to blow up things like:
My Mac, our fridge, our furnace
stove, microwave, Tivoli radio, and
our kick-ass Christmas display

Untitled Bing Bong

I’ve removed my Party Hostess Hat and have replaced it with my Maid of Honor Hat. Let’s see…I’ve booked manis and pedis, up-dos and special occasion make-ups, and have surveyed the other ‘maids about whether or not they want to wear gloves (a resounding no on that one). I’m planning the bridal shower and the bachelorette party, and I’m working on something for the guest give-aways (can’t spoil the surprise by posting what it is) and should have those done next week.

Post Party Post

Last night was the Grand Lighting. I should say it was THE Grand Lighting. I have been telling everyone that M outdid himself this year, and finally they all got to see what I meant. The only way to do it justice is to not try to describe it with the written word, but rather borrow a digital camcorder from someone, shoot it, and figure out how to post a video here.
