Derby insanity
May. 5th, 2006 08:43 pmOnce again I find myself in the middle of horse racing insanity and just don't get it. The city of Louisville has gone positively mad for the past 2 weeks. Last night was the Pegasus Parade, of which I was a participant. Now that, was kind of fun. I helped build the corporation-who-shall-remain-nameless's float, and was dressed in this wonderful Holly Hobby costume as I walked down Broadway. On the plus side? Fun. On the minus side? It was 78 degrees (or something) out, and I've felt vaguely overheated ever since. Tonight, the big buzz is on the banning of "cruising" and the resultant police force that is thriving about 5 blocks down the street. Thus far, I haven't heard anything, if it stays quiet tonight, that'll be wonderful, since I'll be up at 6 tomorrow morning to go to work. Yes, I'm working on Derby day. No, I'm not bothered by it in the slightest. No, I don't even really have plans to watch the race on TV. Maybe I'll do something, maybe I won't.
In other news, my dog, Katie, has recently decided to give her momma a heart attack by choosing to eat sporadically at best. For going on 2 weeks now, it's been barely a bowl of dog food a day. The one thing I have noticed, is that she tends to eat and drink better when I'm home. Now, that's all well and good, but I've got to go to work to be able to BUY the dog food, so she'll have to eat when I'm not home on occasion. Crazy mutt. She has gotten better about the generalized being insane though. Leash training is improving, she's not jumping so much when I come home, and the only non-Katie thing she ate this week as a Newsweek, but since Ian left it on the couch, not all that worried.
Ok, time to update the goals, eat a corndog (which my mother will try to claim is a new thing since I've moved south, but I swear, I had my first corndog in Ithaca and they are a rather random craving at best), and get to bed early.
