5-things12Things went pretty well for the Sisters this week. We didn’t quit work even once. Well, maybe once. But it was only for a few minutes. Otherwise, the week went well. We had some good meetings and saw a bunch of people we like. We started a diet, so that totally blew. Still all in all, things went well. We’ll probably do it all again next week. And that’s how you spend all your life at work. Now we’re totally depressed and we’re not allowed to eat dear kurtcake. Sigh. Thank god there were these funny things.

1. Old-est friends. Amylynn’s oldest friends were in town this weekend from Alaska. Dear Kurt and Dear Janet brought their family for vacation. The Sisters met for lunch at our favorite sandwich shop and had an hour and a half of laughter and teasing. It’s really good to see the people who’ve loved you the longest and the best. We also went to see another old-est friend’s band play and we had a great Winston Chirchilltime which required much recovery the next day since we closed down the bar. Travel home safely, dear friends.

2. Fuzzy statesman. We want you to meet Winston Churchill. He’s a Havipoo – 1/2 Havanese 1/2 poodle and all adorable. He weighs all of three pounds which is about 15 pounds smaller than Jojo Kitty. He belongs to Aunt Joni but he’s loved by all. EarhartHonestly, he looks like a Webkins and not at all real. We’re completely and totally in love with his wiggly little body.

3. Keeping people occupied. The Sister’s dad has a birthday coming up and he wanted a metal detector. He’s staying with Amylynn while the brother is out of town, so Amylynn hooked the old man up. It was due to arrive from Amazon on Friday and we’re pretty certain he sat on the front porch, waiting impatiently, all day. When she got home, she fully expected to find Vinylhim with all the dogs out in the back yard looking for riches. Who knows. Maybe he’ll find Amelia Earhart’s plane back there. It would explain that they’ve been looking in the wrong place all this time.

4. Vinyl.  The last thing the Sisters need is to adopt yet another TV show.  Unfortunately, Ava is left alone far too often during robot season for her good and binge watched all 5 episodes by herself.  Now she insists Amy watch it because she has to have someone to talk to about it. Duh.  Here’s what you need to know – great music, great acting, great anti-hero played by Bobby Cannavale.  Also, the amazingly beautiful Olivia Wilde is in it and that’s always worth the price of admission.  Mick Jagger’s good

looking kid is in it – James Jagger – playing a thrash rocker and he can act, too.

5. Whatever it is, we’re against it. There was some protesting in our town this weekend. It caused some serious issues with the only highway we have but the Sisters weren’t going anywhere so that didn’t affect them.  They did go off on their own protests and wondered why no one from the media came out to their houses to cover the story.  In no particular protest order: doing the laundry for a bunch of ungrateful people, paying more than a buck fifty for gas (what the hell happened??!!), going to work everyday even though we’re sure we’re kidnapped princesses from Europe, people expecting us to behave like adults when we’re bored.  We need to pick a fight with Megyn Kelly so we can get some airtime.
