Thank You!

I have to say thank you to everyone who responded to yesterday's post. I have such great blogger friends. I need to say a special thanks to CrabCake. She did something for me that is so sweet. You can see it here. She is an amazing person.

I talked to Mr. Sign again and he was much calmer and told me to go with his blessing. So I booked my hotel room for Friday night. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. I know that I'll have fun and hope that the entire group makes the night memorable.

I have a friend that I've known since kindergarten. She is having a surprise 50th birthday party for her husband tonight. ( Side note: I bought him some RedBull and a thong, he he. I was looking for old people doing porn but I guess you have to order it. If it hasn't been done, I should patent it and make millions.) I can't wait to see her since it's been a while. We always have good time wherever we go. Next Saturday night they are doing a bar crawl. I'm not sure I can handle two nights of partying in a row. I'm not as young as I used to be.

I was hoping that Spring was here. When I woke up this morning there was almost an inch of snow on the ground. I can't remember the last time there was measurable snow here. This has been the strangest winter I can remember. I wonder what summer will be like.

I see the hyacinths popping through the ground. They are smart little buggers since they started showing their heads in February but have remained close to the ground just barely popping through. I wish I could say the daffodils were as bright. They are up about six inches and look a little worse for the wear.

The local maple sugar farmers recently tapped the Maple trees on my parents and grandparents property. The farmer gives each of them several gallons of maple syrup in exchange for the sap. It's always amazing to see how much sap can come out of one tree overnight. It takes over forty gallons of sap to make one gallon of maple syrup.

My mother was convinced for years that it was hard on the trees to tap them so she didn't allow the farmer to do it. I already knew that my stepdad had given the ok to tap the trees but he neglected to tell Mom. She and I were talking outside of her house one day and I was explaining that the trees were going to be tapped just as we heard drilling. We burst out laughing as she called "T" to yell at him about it.

This post just goes everywhere doesn't it? I'm feeling a little manic today, obviously. My intent with this piece was to thank you all for your support. It means a lot to know that I have so many people that I care about and that care for me here.

Porn Update~My mother asked me if the batteries were charged in my video camera. She offered to let me tape her and my stepdad for old people porn. EWWWWWWW, my eyes and ears are burning just thinking about it!
