Our Big Thursday


Thursdays have become a big day in the week for me. That is the day I get to take Mrs D out to lunch, and spend time with her while she laughs, talks about shrubs, and maybe even comes outside with me. This Thursday will be even more special. My Jujubear wants to meet Mrs D, and...as it is school vacation week, we will be traveling together to spend a beautiful day in the sunny Oceanside city. Juju was hoping to meet Bubbles, and even more than that, was DYING to meet Christmas, the puppy. Personally, Christmas and I haven't built that loving relationship. She wags her tail at me, slinks off behind the couch, and hides there. God forbid I should sneak a pat in.
So this week Juju, Mrs D, and I will have lunch, spend some quality time in the sun, and maybe clip a few rosebushes back. Those shrubs need some tending if we can only hope to achieve the degree of topiary neatness that Mrs D needs and desires in her life. Mr will miss out on all the fun....but I'll catch him up on the small triumphs later. I don't think I can convince Mrs D to come to the ocean with me and Juju, but we'll try hard. Maybe on Sunday, if the weather holds....Mr will show off his kite flying prowess. He has proclaimed himself the all-time kite flying genius. We'll see. This particular kite is the anti-Christ...in 3 years NOBODY has ever managed to get the damn thing air-born. It's HUGE, has two leader ropes, and is the most beautiful thing I've ever laid my eyes on...but I hate it with every fiber of my being for making an utter fool out of me, and in public no less. Mrs D will love watching him try, at the very least. And I hope she will enjoy the spectacular view and beautiful weather as well, and have fun with us all.
