I DON'T HAVE A MOBILE...

The start of todays entry is simple.. The start of my getting on this site is the usual ID fill in the blank shit and then after I pushed to get on there is the "add your mobile" to ... whatever.. I get pissed because even though I do have a mobile (cell) phone I don't want it added and it is simple as to why.. I use the cell phone as an emergency communication device kinda on the lines of the old find a phone booth and pray it works like back in "the day"..  I don't text, I actually call as voice situation and not send text C3PO?    



Today the unheard of has happened .. IT RAINED..  So odd to see rain in mass quantity, enough to run the wipers on the car.. Stunned and we get home from the big city today and I go to the post office and the lady that works the place is standing talking to a guy and they are looking out in what I want to call total amazement .. Full on disbelief, as I walk in the door she says high to me and I nearly say "They say it is called RAIN..  I know I am stunned at this as well"  but as I go to the box it isn't the rain they are watching in amazement but rather the guy got a new truck and they werediscussing the merits of a utility box versus not having one now.. Still  could be the same with the rain but still...

The rain helps the grass, in the yard, the new grass and the old..  Thankfully and I was just thinking how much I watered in years past and the amount was nearly none by now..  We were in town earlier today and I drove to the end of town and around neighborhoods and was thinking isn't this nice, a nice little spring storm... The spring storm of this kind that we JUST NEVER DID GET!!  It's the one thing that we never got this early spring, spring, late spring, early summer, mid summer or late summer.. It was a hard year to take.. From March until now we got nearly no rain.. Three tenths of an inch today.. Three tenths and it was seriously the nicest spring rain anyone could want except that it came six months later than expected..  Oh well.. CHECK PLEASE..

FARTHINGS AND MORE FARTHINGS

I started looking for laser type of videos and then got side tracked by hypnosis videos (programs) and I went through this once before.. In this case I got a bunch of hypnosis programs via a site on the internet that was audio only.. I then edited the audio to where I thought it would do the most good.. At one point I remember going into the local walmart and not seeing any people.. It was one of the oddest feelings to be in the store and not see anyone.. Of course there were people there but just for that instance there weren't any...  Today I find just a shitload of hypnosis videos and think why not try them again.. I was at the park the other day and was staring at some black birds and then noticed I was staring at the chain link fence and causing myself to trip a bit..  so today I come across some videos that are trip inducing type which might work but I think only if you are in the right frame of mind and drink enough red bull or something like that.. The hypnosis videos on the other hand.. I know those work and am a little leery about trying them again because the after effect, especially the ones that help induce sleep, are a little scary.. I remember coming back from Cheyenne one night and just as we were nearly home I blipped for a second.. What does blip mean??  I had a momentary hypnosis event, which at the time it was dark and I had been driving since leaving town and the scary part was I wasn't sure where we were or how long I was out..   Was it a second or was it longer??.. From that point on I stopped doing the hypnosis programs..   But today I have found what might be the better of the type I was looking for back then.. Sleep was a premium way back when I worked at four in the morning and my days were fairly screwed up, rarely getting to sleep before eleven at night as was the case before I started to work and would stay that way after the odd hours,,  So I felt like sleep hypnosis was a good idea to try so I set one up to repeat through the night..  Also a pain management program was set up.. As well as a memory program.. and just for S&G I set up  a distant viewing type of program.. A lucidity program, and distant viewing and a few times before I did this I could swear I was doing distant viewing a few times.. Strange to see things and then hear about it later.. I was guessing it was a load of crap.. Controlling dreams is extremely tough to do.. I doubt I was ever able to.. And distant viewing is something reserved for the armed forces or something..

The videos I came across today was plenty of laser type for the different video ideas and plenty of hypnosis videos for trying something new...

IMAGINE IN IMAGINATION

Yesterday I got a bootleg of a very early Dark Side Of The Moon concert, before the album was completed, and in fact was in the early stages yet.. as can be seen with the song titles and the running order although not unheard of to play songs in  a different order than the album.. They were still writing the majority of the songs on that album.  Imagine though getting to see and hear the songs in their early stages as they were trying to work out the details.. Some was trying to see if they could play the songs live as some of the "new" technology advances were so new that they had never even been used outside the studio before.. Thinking back to the early seventies where computers were still gigantic, making them impossible  to have on stage.. So they would have to have several organs and keyboard instruments.. The reason why the early bootlegs lacked bass guitar was because Roger played second keyboard along side Richard and even David would have to play a little keyboard in the studio and as well live..   Listening to this concert it is like hearing the album long before it was released, they played a good lot of every album before they ever released them up until The Wall.. Imagine hearing those albums (DSOTM, WYWH, animals) before they were released.. How cool to see and hear the creative force..

When Billion Dollar Babies was reissued a few years ago it included a portion of what sounded like a bootleg concert.. This sounds like the show on that album except it seems to be more complete..

Started the new video project.. Actually I haven't started it. The project that was to be the DSoTM has been shelved mostly because I'm sure I wouldn't get it done the way I want it to be.. I always ten to get in a rush when trying to complete a project like this.  So I think I will let it stay on the flash drive and think about it a while.. Same with the 220 video idea although I mentioned it on the PNOP blog it seems to be in limbo as well.. I want some really cool graphics with this idea but just can't seem to find them..  Maybe a live video is what is needed there.. 

The pictures of the wedding as placed on Jordan's FB might be an added video to the wedding video but only for my copy, since the discs were burned already it seems like a bad idea to throw another video together and give everyone a second "but this is the ULTIMATE" version.. Maybe a second disc but I don't even think that either..  Just a video and put it somewhere.. Maybe youtube, or maybe   somewhere else.. I don't know..  Got an idea for it.. See what happens..

THE PICTURES AND THE F/X THAT MAKE..

 Could anyone believe that these are all the product of two pictures from the wedding album of Jordan's Facebook site??  I would have been hard pressed had I not known that this can be the product of my attempt.. What this means??  Here above is the "shortly after the wedding party arrived at the reception site"  Banquet room.. The first effect to get to the picture directly under this one is a glass brick effect not shown here.. I should have added it but trust me there really isn't much difference between this picture above and the glass brick effect.. After that effect I went with curves+ and set it to an extreme setting so the colours are excessive.. then comes the setting I used the most on these sets : Kaleidoscope.. This down below is one of the best of the entire sets.. Just the most awesome set of pictures were yielded from this session.. Whenever I do this type of abstract "art" I have to dedicate a whole session to it.. I preset the curves+ and the kaleidoscope settings and not mess with either of them.. Much anyway..

 The cake is easy to see in a few of these.. These two below show a mild use of the kaleidoscope setting and a few other things most notably the paint bucket setting to a texture setting instead of solid colour..

 The last three were changed settings most likely the one on the left was a change in the settings and the one on the right was after the curve+ settings set on the sessions today..

So what does all these mean?? Why are these set to such an abstract?? Several video projects will feature the pictures here and the currently 500 pictures that were yielded from the first two sessions. There could have been several thousand of these type of picture, the settings are nearly infinite on each picture.. Not just the kaleidoscope distortion  with some 500 settings of it's own, there are a great number of distortions to be used..  This should be a great lot of fun..

DICTATE SHUN

Something that most people might not know about me: I hate being in front of the camera (having my picture taken) and so the new pictures from Jordan's wedding that feature me are  by my own definition  Barforama ... I've never liked pictures of myself and this goes back to high school..    And so I try to avoid picture sessions as much as possible.. There was a point in late August where we had gone into the local Safeway and they were offering to take pictures for a fairly decent price and mom was all but signed up for it when she found out the date for these pictures was the Labor Day weekend.. She canceled out and told me about it and I told her both Donald and Bob were doing weddings that Saturday so it was a good thing she cancelled out.. Plus I had no way of getting out of the session myself although I can get creative when I need to...

The new wedding pictures on FB...: Well I see several ideas for these but I also see a lot of abstract ideas.. it will be the later that gets the video creative juices flowing.. I have already doctored some of the pictures and they are right up there with some of the coolest ideas I have ever done..  With the "Dark Side" project starting to really take off these pictures were just what I needed.. Adding them to the pictures I have is gonna make some of the videos be... Better than I thought they would be.. I love letting the picture program do what it does.. There is no program as good at doing this.. And I have a tendency to let my imagination go off..   None of these pictures will be recognizable, unless you have a thick twisted sense or reality.. by the way there was a black picture on the site.. I put a comment "Black on black with a black background"  Such a classic comment and yet never able to use it until then.. Seriously, I don't know why things like that come to mind like that.. That one is from over thirty years ago...   So cool to remember passages like that.. I can recall RATEOTU passages the same way religeous people can pull passages from the bible.. Uncanny..


There are smells that go with the right of passage from one season to another.. In spring it is the smell of new mown grass.. Summer is grass being cut, flowers  and trees, mostly pine trees.. And in fall as we get chilly weather setting in it is the unmistakeable stench of the first time the furnace kicks on.. Why does that always smell so horrible??  And stays in the air..   Winter has the smell of wood burning stove if you're lucky, winter can have nearly no smell at all.. So that's what nothing smells like..   Fall has leaves changing and the nearly never smell odor anymore of leaves being burned, although occasionally there is the scent of leaves burning, someone ignoring the "no burn" policy.. I didn't mind smelling that a little but when it would linger into the night it got old really fast..   I remember they used to burn their trash in trash cans all through the town.. Walking to school through allies and seeing a smoldering trash can and the smell of that time, while not healthy, was still something I remembered from way back then.. Maybe that wasn't healthy or maybe it was..  then last night I let the cat in and didn't notice... she brought in a little friend.. A fuzzy little friend. I heard some rastling sounds and thought, the cat was off her nub again.. Turned and looked and there it was, a furry little rodent that was pretty much dead.. This was a mouse, and I tried to get it away from her and she hissed and I thought eat the damn thing you screwy cat.. So she did.. Add cat breathe (dead mouse) to the list of things that have a certain odor..

WHEN YOU'RE WRONG YOU'RE WRONG..

I came across a site I frequent that has a great many bootleg recordings and the guy wrote Friday that the end was near for his site and that the host site for all the files he was loading was giving him troubles by deleting them and that if everyone were smart they would get the music now rather than wait very long.. I had been getting a lot of the stuff he puts up there almost as soon as he puts it up there (thankyou Google reader) and one of the sets he put up was the "KISSTORY (KISS STORY)" set and I jump all over that one because while I had gotten it at another site this seemed more complete.. So I thought I had it all, or about 5 or 7 volumes and this was 20.. Then today I go about making sure it isn't doubled up, and double checking what exactly I do have of that set.. Turns out the set that I got was a 28 volume set.. 28 discs rather than the seven I originally thought or whatever.. So I'll check to see if everything jives and then I'll have it all set.. Also I am trying to set all the boots (bootlegs) of the KISS set into one disc.. Included on this will be the "instant knocert klassik" where they made the shows available right after they were completed the last tour and this latest.. I got one from last year (when they played Cheyenne, but that isn't the show I got).. Basically I am trying to make the ultimate KISSOLOGY set, adding certain videos (I got all the extra discs that were offered in each volume of KISSOLOGY and put that on a dvd) as well as the concert programs on .pdf files that will be on a dvd.. Making my set of KISSOLOGY a one of a kind set..


The grass in the front yard is coming up fairly fast right now.. Not completely filled in however I did reseed around the outer edges of the entire section, I have looked closer and now wish I would have done almost the entire of that area.. But, this is a good test section and hopefully I can get the rest next spring.. Or get control of the weeds earlier anyway..

Edited one of the last entries here that ran on about a certain situation that I need to not be left to an open blog situation.. Everything I have written about that which happened just a few weeks ago is moved into the sister blog site but not set to be seen by anyone, at least not yet (I.I.)  which makes you wonder if the blog is set to not be seen by anyone is it still a viable blog??  Maybe not, but it is here rather than my private MySpace  which is the same thing as having it on blogger set to no viewership. My MySpace is set to open viewership but not to worry nobody goes there.. I don't think anyway..

BOWLING FOR BANANAS

Just a quick posting here.. On my PNOP site::: the entry titled "Get Your Goat On" is just a title, there are no hidden meanings, no hidden agenda.. I'm not even sure why it has as many views as it does..  It has set a record for views on that site and why??  I'm not sure..   It's not any better than any other entry from this past little bit.. Scratching my head on this one.. But... to each his own.. Hey I finally got around to looking up the lyrics to "Won't Get Fooled Again" by the Who and just had to know a passage in the bridge to the chorus and found out it was never what I thought it was. Funny how you think it was one thing and it never was.. My little brother worked at a radio station way back when and had a guy request "Man on The Run"  and that song turned out to be Band On The Run by Wings (Paul McCartney)  but with my mistake I just never got around to looking up the words to the song, I just figured I was right..

THERE AND SHE WAS

I was in a waiting room yesterday and picked up a paper that had a local writer talking about the "block"  (a.k.a. writers block) and I didn't read the whole article because I go through that and have recently gone through what I can only call creativity block in which I couldn't do video, graphics  the whole lot.. Not sure why, I did get the wedding video completed but after that saw nothing of any new ideas come along.. Until Monday when I came across a new video program that was supposed to be better than the Windows version.. And it was FREE!!!  well to a certain extent it was free.. Certain bits were pay to unlock, and when I tried to get the basics to work it wouldn't so rather than force the issue and try to learn another program, I decided to delete the program.. But it was while I was messing with that other program that I saw a potential video idea and started back up in the creativity mode and now the ideas are coming more regularly, some of which were started before labor day.. Some ideas seem too far out there and might be too much to even bother with... But I'm not going to slam the door shut on any new ideas without even trying them first..

The new grass section seems like it looks like it might be starting to grow.. Yesterday I was gone all day and what a perfect day to be gone, it rained and or was cloudy all day and cool temperatures as well.  Perfect, I didn't water that section all day.. I think I see grass starting to stick up through the soil.. Makes me feel good.. I hope it stays relatively nice for the next six weeks.. I don't want summer to last forever but a few more weeks of nice weather would help out.. Like I've said, planting anything this late is all new to me.. But it was too hot to plant any other time this past July and August..


As mentioned above, we were in a doctors office yesterday and it is always an adventure when we go to a new doctor but... It was fine.. Always a little apprehensive but that is the way it usually is..

REMEMBER A DAY

"Where were you on 9/11/01?"  I was at work, in my head.. What I mean by in my head is I hated my job (who really does like theirs?) and I left my job whenever possible through my imagination, my thinking and thought of a story I had in my head.. This was long before I was ever on the internet and probably a good thing, the stories I was concocting were so out there... But in the case of this day I had a war game going on.. So weird to have that going on.  I remember the previous days (I worked a three and two schedule, three on two off)  and the Sunday they ran the show "On The Beach" on Showtime and I got part one on Sunday afternoon and wanted part two the following day.. it started at six or so and dad asked me if I would go with him to help change the tire on moms car at McD..   I got back just as the show was coming on.. Why is this important??  It isn't, it's just what I remember about the Monday before 9/11..  What about that day stands out most to me??  The lack of credible information..  By 8 that morning two people had clocked in with total opposite stories.. A plane had hit the world trade center, small single engine cessna type... I thought so what... Then someone said it was  a jet, a small jet like a privet jet and again I thought so what.. Then things got going as all sorts of reports started coming in and mom shows up and she has a radio and turns it on.. That is when the reality set in.. Two planes, full sized airliners loaded with fuel were crashed into each tower.. And the pentagon and the Sears tower???    They wanted full effect, and were wanting mass casualties..  When I heard the towers collapsed I thought the top fell off like the Images at Twilight album by Saga.. That is the vision I had.. Then my imagination ran wild.. What if the buildings fell into each other??  Could that have happened??  I had to go see for myself and went on an early lunch break and went to my older brothers house thinking he might be home watching this.. He wasn't home but luckily I was able to get in his house and turn on the tv.. The twin towers were both gone by then..  U   F   B  ...  I couldn't believe it and the rest of my day was spent in disbelief.. Spent the next few hours just thinking about that days events and when I got off by one that afternoon I went pretty much straight home (a first for me) and got in and switched on the tv.. The coverage was relentless, every ten minutes the same images.. The second plane hitting the tower.. Followed by the first then the second tower collapsing.. The pentagon.. The sears tower?? The Sears tower wasn't hit.. It was evacuated but wasn't hit...   And the people who took that flight down in a Pennsylvania field.. Had the rest of the flights known what happened was possible I like to think they would have done the same thing..  But this has never happened before..   That evening the news was to be 24/7 for the next few days and Wednesday  I would be off so I woke up early to watch as the sun came up on what was now known as ground zero.. New York...   And from that day forward for at least a little while everyone was  a New Yorker, we all watched as New York got off the mat and carried on, everything was  a little more special the remainder of that year..  New Years Eve..  All of it...  For a little while we were one with New York...   One Nation with New York...

WE'RE THROUGH.. WE'RE FINISHED

 Front lawn project before shot..

 After all was said and done..

 From the front winda ...

 From out side looking   out..

 whiskey barrel feels like I do when drinking..

 (Almost) done

A before the mayhem starts shot.. Shot sideways to mess with perspective.. (It could be worse)

Wednesday saw the start of the big project as was mentioned in an earlier entry.. I was getting tired of the weeds taking over the front lawn and tried weed spray, weed eater and just about everything except the most drastic turn it over and start the lawn again.. I wanted to do this for a while now and this years craptastic lawn gave the excuse to try it.. I tried on about the same area a few years ago but didn't do it justice (that and I didn't have the tiller to do this with).. Tilling was tricky at best but got done in a few hours tilling one direction then the opposite.. Then the raking started.. And rake.. and rake.. and rake..  Finally I gave up.. It more than likely isn't even close to level, but it was done.. (Screw it I'm done)..  Took the next day off for back reasons then got the grass planted Friday.. The settings didn't show our spreader so I went with what I thought sounded close and got the grass seed set.. 600 square feet is a lot smaller than I thought.. but when you think the dimensions are 20 feet by 30 feet   that just blew me away.. The bag of grass I got was a fall mixture (guaranteed to grow     maybe they shouldn't say such things when an idiot like me are at the controls        it's wreck proof....  wanna BET).. Got the drip irrigation heads set and now for the next two or three weeks we see how good of an idea this was.. I've never planted in September before.. My cutoff date was always August 15 at the latest.. It fact it was the tenth or eleventh before this year..   This has been a different year though.. So the drip irrigation took the place of the atomizer sprinkler mostly because while the atomizer is good, it can water heavy (something I didn't realize until recent use of it).. The drip system delivers  a very light watering and is perfect for this project.. So here it is two days into waiting for the gras to come up.. I'll get more seed for the areas that didn't get seed Friday..   Keep an eye on this entry, I will add updates as we progress..

FOOTBALL FARTS

I don't think the day will come when I say "college and pro football sucks".. But with the rules changes that I don't understand that could possibly happen.. I just watched a few games today and some of the rules changes were enacted.. Were enforced and the truth is there were some that were added to make the game (seem) more safe.. truth is football is a violent sport.. A very violent sport, and I don't mind watching some flag football here & there.. But if they want to make the sport even more safe have the players not wear helmuts... shoulder pads could go, any thigh pads and finally cleats or turf shoes.. So in other words just let them run around in their jock straps..  SNAP (simulated jock strap snap sound effect)... 

But seriously wouldn't it make more sense to take away certain things that are used as weapons??  No, I like a good collision.. When a player loses his headgear they go out for a play.. If there is a penalty in the last two minutes they have a ten second runoff penalty.. If a players mommy says they are playing too rough...   And then the violins start to play.. 

In the past ten or maybe more years they have stopped keeping score at little peewee league games.. Soon to spread to highschool and then college??  Wouldn't that be odd??  A nice little get together of football.. No score, no time.. Play until nobody cares anymore.. Just about there right now...

PREDICT THE FUTURE..

I saw a thing by a site on one of the Facebook sites I follow that had the power rankings for every football team this year and they said you will more than likely complain that your team is too low.. They had the Bronco's at number 11.. I am not sure how everyone feels about the ranking but to me it is about right for this point in the season, which is to say without a regular season game being played..  But because of the preseason being the way it was I wrote that the number 11 placing is fine because if they have very many injuries they could easily tumble down the ladder.. Truth is if Manning gets hurt and is out for the season they will be trying to play for the next seasons number one player in Barkley.. The backup players were not that good this year and so every position is precious so they better hope everyone stays healthy..


We went to Runza yesterday and went through the drive thru and I started to give the order and this wasp starts to bother me and then another and soon we had to pull out of the speaker and as I'm pulling to  the window to complete the order I notice the wasps were coming from the mirror.. And not just one or two but more..  Had the windows up and I started to move the mirror around and watched them crawl out and fly away.. Mom counting some thirty plus.. I pulled out of the drive thru lane and parked in the lot but then decided we couldn't get out and couldn't go through the drive thru so we went home.. A wasp nest is in there and so today I will try to hose them out of there with water..  How fun was that??  Today is high in the low seventies so I'm gonna mess with that today as well as get the lawn project wrapped up.. Got some new sprinkler heads to try...

REVERSE DIRECTION

Is it a sign of getting too old to do this anymore?? Earlier this summer I noticed a good amount of the lawn turning to weeds, like the grass was first tempted then joined the "dark forces" and became weeds..  Well I walk in our lawn bare footed and you really feel the difference in texture between grass nice n soft, to where the weeds are very rough.. So I started to get disgusted in the amount of weeds we were getting, blame it on the weather since heat is what we had almost all summer long..  I decided in July I was going to redo the area that was the worst but.. It was so hot and even though I had a lot of luck the last time I redid a part of the lawn in July this was a different part.. That year I redid an area right next to the house and although it was hot I did that because the house provided the shade I felt I needed to be successful growing the grass.. This area yesterday is ten feet away from the other section and it extends a bit all over the front..  And when all was said and done I had a fairly big chunk of lawn torn to hell.. Then it was try to clean it up time.. The initial tear the grass up was relatively easy however there was a point I thought it was too big of a task for the tiller.. But a second setting and turning the tines around proved the trick.. Getting four good sized loads of grass out of there and still I was raking debris from the field as it were.. Finally I stopped and tried to get the irrigation set.. This was a trick but I think I have enough heads placed in the right location, I'm gonna look today for the heads I want to do the entire area.. Leveling has never been my strong suit, getting this to be perfect? That are not gonna happen, but I think if I can just get kinda close I'll be happy..

Today is feel the aftermath day.. That was a long haul yesterday.. I'm feeling it today and truth is I felt fine up to throwing in the towel. I might have been able to complete the project yesterday but I blamed the area on being to wet to complete it.. I don't think it would have been too wet at all, the very top was wet but just under it was very likely dry as a desert ...  Today I will look for the heads and then maybe try to level the ground.. Planting later today or tomorrow and set the water and then   water that area by remote settings.. keep it wet.. I Googled the best time to reseed the grass and they said from August 15 to September 15.. It finally cooled off enough to get this project going..  If this works I have three more sections I want to do next year.. They are smaller and should be easy to get done..


Badge (twisted back) Henry

(P.S.  Back injuries are the worst..   Anyway it seems to be my current weakness,  after a second injury to the back region I am just floored.. Thankfully we are still on the outs with a certain other person in the family and we were off this week anyway.. How long we will be off??  That is anyones guess.. I will try to get the grass area set to be planted tomorrow, the weather set to be only in the mid seventies, I can handle that.. Will my back be back to normal.. That I am hoping will be the case.. Stopped by the hardware store today and picked up a full circle watering head.. I hope that it can water 20 feet diameter as the package says it can..  I have four of those risers and I figure just those four are all I need but will back the project up with two more stake watering heads.. Hope this works.. Too windy to try today and coupled with my back hurting and it is a flat out no go..)

THAT WAS QUICK

I was in the "meeting" room the other night and thinking about just how fast this past year had flown by.. It seemed like I was just in there thinking that very same thing a year ago and also thinking I'd be in there on the 24th of December thinking where did this year go?? I never noticed time fly like it has the past few years and I blamed it on my nephew and now there are two more added to the time accelerator.. Three kids jumping on the pedal that makes time fly...

Labor Day is Old Settlers Day (weekend) and it is a big celebration here..  It's when people get together to just have fun, to have summer end, to celebrate... LIFE!!   It's becoming more youth oriented and I think it should be now.. There was a time when you just couldn't do anything new, no new ideas were allowed.. But the people who were that way are disappearing and it is more youth oriented and it should have been even back then.. They still have both the old and the new...

We got together and talked about family issues and the "new"  "crisis" that is the Lucy situation and all I really have to say about that whole blow up is we saw her true colours first hand.. It was her in a nutshell.. Where I felt it was this way from the beginning and there it was.. She announced (in a manner of speaking) on FB that she was pregnant.. Or everyone got that though her conversation with some "friends" of hers.. She told us a couple weeks ago and even then I think she mistook something either I said or mom when we were talking about something and she heard something about her (big surprise) and she said that it is true, she was pregnant... BUT DON'T TELL ANYONE.. Well I'm sure she thought with the blow up that she better tell everyone because I would blab it to everyone.. It was their secret (such as it is) and I wouldn't betray their trust..

I've started to keep  a running account of the conversations I've had with Lucy on the Infinite Improbability blog  and trying to evaluate what was being said by her even far back as that Friday of the wedding rehearsal.. She seemed to be scheming back then.. Trying to make things to be in her favor..  But there are a few lines in the blow up that I still wonder about..

Had she come yesterday I had decided not to mention anything about it and as well didn't bring it up with Donald and he didn't say anything to me either.. I figure if she ever does say anything I will just say I knew it was going to happen the way it did.. Either I would have pissed her off, mom would have or something else would have happened, a wildcard situation..  I've decided as well Donald will be the one to ask me to help them, I won't help her.. She is going to have to get in my good graces again..  I figure it will be later and not sooner as one of her brothers will be here for a visit through all of September.. Beyond that who knows what will happen.. The fact that Donald brought up Ian with him yesterday I feel like things might be in a thaw mode except it's like mom said Lucy would rather anyone have the boo rather than her.. Possibly..

And then there was a fire yesterday..  Much fun.. Much excitement..
