Practicing

Have been practicing my skateboard this week. I plan to teach my niece and nephew how to skateboard so have to reteach myself. I loved skateboarding as a teenager (though not as good as say, Tony Hawk). Skateboards are different now. My old skateboard was flat with 2 sandpaper strips, now are concave with whole standing platform is sandpapered. Takes some time to get used to it. Hope niece and nephew like it too.

Today I practiced walking in 4" platforms to get blank stare from Frodo. He followed me around the apartment and ran away when I got close. Think can handle them when I wear them during my niece's dance recital. Sure I can wear flat shoes as guys like to point out, leading me to say "Ok, let's pretend I'm a woman and not a man like you, and women wear heels". Flat shoes kill my feet while heels give more arch support. If you stand still, your toes get a lot of pressure so always best to move around in them. Seriously, look at any women's shoe section and you will find a lot of heeled shoes. Women like heels (it's makes us taller to reach the lips of the men we love) and makes our legs look slimmer.

It's called Rubbish

Had a maid stop by asking if I need service. Got water bottles and towels. Then said she could take the garbage. Then remembered they say rubbish here and I think she is not Australian to understand what I meant. Rephrased to say she can take the rubbish. Swam in the indoor pool for a while. Water was lukewarm.

Looking for the Cat

Both dogs and Goldie came inside from the yard. Saw Rosie come inside, but I was unsure if she went back out into the yard or still inside. Searched all over and finally found her in the tree outside. Waited and eventually she came to the door squeaking like a mouse. All babies inside now.

New phone

As if I was not spending enough money, I have to buy I new cell phone. I unfortunently got the fabulous Sidekick phone because at the time of purchase I did not have internet access. It cost a lot of money, sure good things do, but I expected it to last a whie at that price. Of course, I lost the 1st phone last year and had to buy a new one which cost more than what I originally paid for it (I never did find it). So, a year goes by to have the battery go kaput and can't hold any level of power leaving me to recharge it constantly. Also, this battery is sealed in the phone so I can not just go out of buy a new one. At the end of my rope, I complain in an email from my computer. Since the warranty expired, I have to buy a new one. Well, I told the operator, if I have to buy a new phone every year then I want the cheapest one you got. He agreed with my logic. Then, changing phones causes me to lose the unlimited Sidekick internet access. Losing the internet access also caused the eras...
