Happy Cinco de Mayo, everyone!!! I wish had somethin' to do/someone to go out with tonight to celebrate, but in lieu of that I think I might just buy a bottle of wine, go home and crank up my stereo w/some of the best of my Latin music collection. ^_^ (I bet my neighbors across the hall who're Latino and don't speak much English are gonna think I ( Read more... )

Yesterday I actually got to celebrate May Day in my family tradition for the first time in a long time. ^_^ I bought flowers on the way home & left them at the doors of people in my "neighborhood."

Wow.. now I gotta think ( Read more... )

It is a GOOD day!!! *extreme glee* Ian brought home a humane trap for squirrels, rats and small animals the day before yesterday and I set it up last night. It got triped once at the end of the evening so I raced up there hoping, only to find he'd gotten in & eaten the banana & Cheerios, leaving the cheese, and had gotten back out. :P So I re- ( Read more... )

I heard him skittering about the night before last during the night, and last night I enlisted my landlord/friend to come "help me" catch him. (He apparently needed a flashlight to see anything even though the room was fully lit, and I- and I imagine the rat, couldn't see WITH it, so that was kind of a connunudrum...)
