Here’s an Update

Well this post is a bit of a test. I am going to update you on previous posts, but if you haven’t read them (shame on you)…I mean please do.

I fixed my washing machine! As you recall form “It’s a Glam life” it had broken down. I disassembled and cleaned the drive motor, replaced a couple of belts and a switch, and it purrs like a kitten. I know this because after I repaired it I stood and watched a full cycle of cloths wash (yah, my life is that exciting), and now my machine works, and my clothes are uber clean.

The high jacking. I teased you in “Isms and other Coming Attractions” that this site was going to be high jacked by Lisa and Sugary Cynic…but it hasn’t happened. I’m telling you, if you can’t trust high jackers to deliver on a promise…I just don’t know anymore.

In “Gender Clonflict…” I eluded to the notion that my Id is a female. I don’t care who you are…it happens once and a while. Stay tuned for more of those animations/conversations and find out what form Id Ego and Super Ego take in all of us. You’ll be surprised.

Finally…I am going on a short vacation this week. Big deal you say? Well, it is the very first vacation of any description I have had in more than 6 years. I am due. I travel on business frequently and squeeze in a day of sightseeing, but that really isn’t a vacation. No, this time I am traveling to a land far away to visit a dear friend. It is an odd land with interesting sights and people. How odd you ask? Well, if you have ever played “Farmville” on FaceBook with all of it’s buttons and bells…it’s a lot like that! Details to follow another time.

I’m just saying.

Awe - have fun on your vacation and congratulations about your washing machine. Maybe you can invent an auto-washboard for me. haha

SugaryCynic said...

I'm workin on it!! If you want your jacking to be a positive experience than just be patient!! ....(reads over that last sentence) O.o

Sorry.

Ron said...

Anna - I PROMISE I will work on that invention :)

Sugary - I felt like yanking a chain today...sorry it was yours! When you high jack the sight...do I still get complimentary peanuts?

Widow_Lady302 said...

O_O CYNIC!! EVERY man wants his jacking to positive, and for some reason I flashed back to Black Swan and mean...well you get it...

Ron, NO you don't get peanuts, you get to serve the refreshments for the after party. Have fun on your vacation! Don't do anything I wouldn't do! :)

Martin said...

You deserve the break Ron. Enjoy!

Jewell said...

Firstly...congrats on getting the washing machine fixed. I'm sure the spit washing that you were doing was probably starting to leave it's own spots...especially if you didn't clean out your teeth first.

Secondly...I can't wait for your blog to get hijacked again. Maybe you need to take up residence in the basement first so that you don't try and clean up the mess before the rest of us get to see it in all it's original jacked up glory! =)

Thirdly...I got nothin'...your Ron / ID / Ego conversations just make me sit here, shake my head, and facepalm myself repeatedly.

Lastly...WTH?? I demand you tell me who you paid in order to get a vacation. I haven't had a real, honest to whoever vacation in 13 years.
I've been hunting down the vacation pusher for years, and the schlub has been avoiding me. I'm on the verge of making "going postal" look like a lullaby! *huff*

PS - have fun, I guess. And remember...I don't have bail money, but I would accept the collect call if the story behind the need for bail is good enough. =)

Ron said...

Lisa - ;)

Martin - Thank you so much. I know you know the travel - sight seeing vacation thingy.

Jewell - Fiftly...I love you dearly little daughter...and as for the vacation details/bail money...wouldn't you love to know...jusat saying ;)

Ron said...

AG - I must know what a "piccy" is! Am I naive?

Savira - No worries...I will be in good company ;)

Cheryl said...

A vacation...sounds nice. Hope you have a great time. Sounds like Sugary Cynic and Widow Lady are up to something. I'm in suspense...what will happen when the cat's away??

Jessica Brant said...

xoxo
Jessica

Ron said...

Cheryl - I can't wait for the highjack either...which kinda sounds wierd when you think about it. :)

Jessica - I have an OCD list of stuff to do for the trip, including laundry...yah, that's how I roll :). Thank you so much for stopping by.

Shelby said...

Ron said...

Wander - Well it isn't really farm town, it just feels like it. It is a small town surrounded by farms. I grew up in the country, and I miss it, but I still like to poke fun at it. Thanks for stopping by. I am following your blog and I will be by frequently to poke fun there as well.

Mary said...

Ron, farm life is a wonderful way of life! A lot of work, but something new and exciting is happening every moment of your day...and sometimes night:)

Ron said...

Mary - I grew up on farms and I miss it. Every day was an adventure. ;)
