We were watching the original Psycho and then Dave flipped to the local news where they were showing a clip of Hillary Clinton giving her DNC speech... but I thought we were still watching Pscyho.
Scary.

If you look real close you can see me
The MAC is running a MAC on TV and I am in there somewhere. Maybe about half way through they are showing pictures of all the people interviewing people at tables. I am in the far back. I will try to get more information if you are interested. LOL
The link below describes the TV schedule for the MAC preview.

New additions to the Les and Joanne family
Les and Joanne have new additions to their family. Ollie and Stanley are Maine coon kittens.
I believe Ollie is the lighter colored kitten and Stanley is the darker one.
I think this is Ollie.
And this should be Stanley, unless I have them confused.

Steven Banks/Olympics
Every time I hear the olympics theme, I think of Steven Banks. My kids will understand.

I want control of the TV control
Dave has control of the TV control and he keeps checking back to the Olympic coverage. Each time they start a little human interest on Dara the swimmer he flips back to something else. It has happened twice. I guess I will never find out her "story".

Random acts of kindness, part 2
I have to preface this blog with mentioning that I am fine, I did not get mugged, robbed, or raped while committing a random act of kindness. I say this for Dave's benefit because he thinks I am way too trusting.
What happened was that I had to run some errands after work. I went to Walgreens and then was headed back west toward the grocery store. The street is a four lane street and I was in the far right lane. Up ahead I saw a car that either seemed to be going very slow or was stopped. As I got closer I realized that the car was stopped (there is no stopping/parking on this street) and I was going to have to get into the other lane - fast. I was worried about this car sitting there, as most cars on this street go faster than the posted 40 miles and it is not always easy to pull into the left lane. Should I call the police and let them know an abandoned car is on Joy Road? No, I don't have the number. I guess I could have dialed 911, and I was considering that as I pulled into the grocery store parking lot. As I parked, I noticed a man and a woman head back down the street walking as fast as they could, carrying.....yes, a gas can! I pulled out of my parking spot and drove over to them, honked my horn and waved them over. I asked if they were going back to the car stopped in the street. Yes, they were. Hop in, I said. The woman got in the front and the man in the back with the gas can, and I carefully pealed out to get back to the car as fast and carefully as I could. It was 0.2 miles back down the road and luckily no one had crashed into it. Did I mention that the emergency flashers were not on? Yikes. As I pulled up behind the car and put my flashers on, the lady asked me how much she owed me. I laughed. Sorry I did. I never even thought of charging them to drive them 0.2 miles. Crazy. I assured her that she didn't owe me anything and in fact, I was going to stay behind them with my flashers on while they put the gas in the car and then drive off. Which is what happened.
Wow, what a good feeling that gave me. Not only do I feel like I helped those two people, but probably some poor person who would have hit that care while coming home from work and not really paying attention to the traffic.
