TODAY IS ALL WE HAVE




Chris Dimitri Ogden


Friday night I drove 25 miles to my home town to have fish with a facebook friend I hadn't seen in years. We had fish! I had one scotch and soda. I left the "bar" around 10:30 and took the back roads home. I was going thru a small town when I noticed a police car sitting bored. I knew that I knew he was going to stop me. I didn't know why, I just knew. I started digging in my purse for the ONE Halls Menthol Liptus STRONG smelling cough drop. Do you know any woman with an organized purse? Nope. I dug and I dug and I found IT just as the red and blue and white lights started circling my bladder!! Oh for sure! I thought to myself, "Why is he stopping me?" I am not speeding. Sheit, its the plates. Whose going to take my dog out to podie? omg! He comes to my Buick window. I have my drivers license ready. I cant even tell you what I said. Blah blah blah. I had practiced this a hundred times. Why? Because my mind goes fast and I imagine allot. That is why I write novels see? OK so he says I have no plates. And I am searching for the title I know I put in the car. Then I go into my best form of master salesmanship. I have been told I was a born salesperson. It worked. I told him with Halls Menthol breath that my Mother GAVE me this car....and I gave my Grand-daughter my car. That my brother owns the dealership listed on those plates... ALL AMERICAN APPLE PIE FAMILY uh huh!! He never asked me if I had been drinking. Why would he ask an old lady in a Buick with white walls and mud flaps. 

And I thought I was going on a simple double date to a baseball game! NOT! I had the best threesome ever. No not that way....I got all three of these wonderful men to myself for eight hours of laughing, more laughing, getting rained on most of the night, taking turns holding umbrella's. Steve, (the man in blue) his boss gave me a slicker rain coat, Don (in gray) bought me a DuckPond Mallards baseball cap, and Tim (in green) besides making me laugh for hours, brought me a sweet little turtle sundae in a mini baseball cap. We ate hamburgers and french fries in the pouring rain with wet napkins that reminded one of wet toilet tissue....obviously that doesn't cut it and sticks to your fingers and face. We watched a man shot out of a canon...We weren't going to. We were going to make Tim call a cab if he decided to stay any longer in that miserable weather, but he persisted like a bad child! He pushed us all to stay and we turned out very glad we did! It was a pretty good deal after all. At this time it was a tad past midnight so we stopped at a local pub for a couple toddie's. Steve was driving so he did not drink. I had two Scotch and soda's and continued laughing ridiculously. They say laughing cures all illness's. I am certainly cured of any and all past present and future illness that may try to befall me. Wont happen!
This is the Graduate! When she was two and now at eighteen... Isn't she a beauty? God that sounds like she's horse.. isn't she a beaut...guys in the Fonzie days used to call their cars beauts... Briana Maria Hull, better known as Bree, or Bri, or Breezy, or Bones.... is a beautiful young woman with such grand things ahead for her. I suspect that means boys, boys, boys, and then hopefully work, school, and a job making allot of cash. So her and I can hop the AMTRAK Train to Tucson to see her Daddy and then onto Los Angeles to see Cody and Chris Ogden and more. If we could sit in a seat for 42 hours we could get there for less than flying...$250.00 But to have a room, bathroom, shower, bed...it is $1200 for each of us. Now that means we need to start practicing sleeping upright for three days so we can go without flying. Nana D wont fly. Just the way it is folks. Just like I wont do boats! Not going to change it, don't want to, no need. Just practice sitting up sleeping. Back to Graduation....the party is in two days. A pool party and I just heard there is a good chance of a thunderstorm. Sweet! I am making barbecues and I don't know how. Ha. I don't eat barbecues so why would I know how to make them. They are too sweet for me. So my X gave me a zillion pounds of meat....I like free meat! I bought a half gallon of Uncle Herbie's Gourmet Bar-B-Q sauce...no clue what it tastes like. Ordered a cake with the above photos on it. Making potato salad, home made mac n cheese, blah blah blah.... pulled a groin muscle trying to move furniture and clean in case anyone and I mean even one wished to see my abode... So I am hobbling around like a 90 year old hoping the hair cut I get tomorrow will be some sort of miracle. And will not match my hobble. We always hope that. Yet we walk out after the cut and color, a bunch of money less and looking still 60! But where's the mini lift and the miracle I was expecting? No diff than going to Macy's and hitting the makeup wall only to have some youthful little girl paint my face with a pound of makeup thinking she has to hide all the imperfections vs working with them...jeez these kids! I should have a makeup stand (on some street corner) for the old ladies...I 'd make a fortune for sure. Back to Graduation. I sure cant stay on track today. I gave Bree my car in great hopes it will run for two more years... humm. So my Mum gave me her car, "The Buick," which I still have to blog...all I will say is its got mud flaps and white walls and I have to brake constantly to keep it from heading to the restaurant for eggs because it wants to get in line with all the other Buick's and all the old white haired drivers but I don't...so we battle. I am winning so its alright. Hey, its free and paid for. More than I can say for this Graduation Party. Now I know why people give the kid money and forget the party and I haven't even started cooking yet, and don't forget they just forecasted rain for our pool party. That might mean a bunch of little ones in a small clubhouse. O'Well, they can eat and I will sneak a shot of something into my Soda. They say its not the problem, its the solution and this time I agree. Don't worry.

I bought and paid for this video in hopes I could post it on my friends blog and it would be beautiful. NOT and they wont refund my money. In fact I bought two of these buggers.
So here we are a dollar short and a day off on this one. O well...I am learning as I go. I wanted the CODE for this. Cant figure out how to get Code on these videos...

So this is me! I have to have it along with everything else in the latest Romantic Country Magazine which costs more then most medications. I bit the green paper bullet and bought it. My passion is Creme and White Victorian Wares, Whares?? Either way you get it. Frilly, Lacy, roses, wicker, chandeliers with the more glass hanging for them the better, birdhouses, mirrors, and on and on....although the round table in the living room photo might be over the top for me.
anything diff until the books are completed. Then we shall see what calls my name. Maybe I will take single orders for Shabby love seat and chair covers. Or maybe I will sell everything I own and hop in the car my Mother is handing down to me next week. Yup, a freebie. I dislike car payments, even tho I like new shiny cars. Too bad, so sad, I am not turning down "The Buick." You'll have to tune in tomorow or next day for the hilarious "Buick Blog Post." I'll give you a hint......it has white walls! Stop laughing!
