Octopussy.

Yes, this is exactly what it looks like: octopus! The 26 YR old came home from work last night and was boiling it on a pot on the stove for his supper....and it stunk up the entire house even my mother complained about the gross smell even though she herself cooks nasty things that reek such as turnip and Brussels Sprouts! He tricked me,too, before he took it out of the bag he goes, Here, touch this!  thru the bag and it was squishy and rubbery and I said What is that? A dick?  as I must have felt one of the tenticles and then he said it was an octopus and I recoiled, ewwww! That's so gross!!!! I also asked my hubby(as I do every week) when he was at the store to check for sunflowers(as I know they sell them) and he came back(as he always does) saying they never had any and to try and "prove" his point that he was right( which only ended up backfiring on him and proving him wrong!) he took a photo with his phone of the floral display to show me, Look, no sunflowers....

Except there were.

I could clearly see with my own eyes sunflowers there,and then he tries to get "out" of it excusing, Those aren't sunflowers!!! and I'm like, Yes, they are!(I mean, it was very obvious) and who was he(who knows nothing about horticulture, to tell me they aren't sunflowers( esp. when he was the one who pulled out all my Lily of the Valley thinking they were weeds and thought yellow gerbera Daisies were sunflowers simply because they're yellow) and then he goes on to say that they weren't the yellow ones that I like but orange when I could clearly see in the photo that they were yellow, and he's notorious for being colour-blind(and even the kids know it and tease him about it) and getting his colours mixed-up( such as saying pink is purple or burgundy is brown, for example, and everybody knows to never send him alone to a store such as a paint store to get colours as he always get it wrong) and then the pathetic excuse that it must be the photo "making" them "look" yellow".

Yeah.....whatever.F*ck-off.  Knowing him  I think he knew very well the entire time but purposely  didn't get them and when I asked him to go back  and get them( since it WAS his fault) he refused and then hours  later when I went(he finally took me) they were all sold out. It figures. Just MY "luck." Sometimes I really think he was sent here to ruin my life. He knows sunflowers are one of those small things that bring a little joy into my life and he even has to take that away from me too and try his best to take away any happiness I can get.

I also got my toe hit by the closing screen door and it slammed on it hard and not only hurt like hell but also cut it, and one of my Facebook friends who has always said for years she hates kids and never wants to have kids just announced the other day that she's prego  and the baby's due in February! I have to say I never saw this coming although in her recent photos I noticed she had gained alot of weight and thought to myself, Wow, she's gotten fat lately! but I never would have guessed prego and she's still at the stage now where she doesn't look prego yet, just fat(she's 15 weeks.) and I also found out my friend P( from grade 6 and now lives in Barrie) also has a condo in downtown Toronto that she rents out so that might explain how she can afford to travel 3-4 times a year, and I smelled this fetid decaying corpse smell(it's a distinct smell you can't miss) in the bathroom I swore smelled like decomposing flesh and sure enough I found 2 dead mice in the garbage can and months ago my hubby put out these tree branches on the curb for pick up and they never took them(likely because he never tied them up) and now it's just a bit left so I figured they'd just composted and decomposed naturally it had been so long but it turned out that he'd just moved them.

It gets me mad too how my hubby thinks he's so smart and knows more than anyone else when there still are *some* things that I  know more about than he does( even though I'm supposed to be the dumb one) such as flowers, dog breeds, music, religion, history, geography, languages, art, medicine,etc. and he laughs at me for saying the vaccine is the Mark Of The Beast too and says it was Kanye West who first said it and it spread over the Internet and that's how it started and that even the Pope got the vaccine and he jeers that I believe Kanye West over the Pope....except I never even knew Kanye West said  that and I don't care what he(or anyone else) thinks(I think for myself) and the Vatican is part of the Illuminati anyway, and I'm just so sick and tired of even my own family making fun of me and I just remind myself that everyone laughed at Noah,too, until it started to rain. I also think Buddy must be an angel sent down from Heaven in dog-form to bring love, light, joy,and healing into my life,and he's one of few things in my life that I don't regret,and one of my regrets was that I didn't lose my virginity to G. I  was wildly attracted to him(he looked like James Dean!) and we hung out and this one time I stayed over at his place(guest room) and I was soooo tempted to go into his room and crawl into bed next to him....but I was just so scared. Scared of rejection and humilation if he laughed me out of the room, plus scared of,well, you know, so I never did and I'll never know what might have happened that night if I did; if only I'd been brave and had the courage. Would he have responded? Would I have known passion or would I have been rejected and humilated? The worst regrets in life are the ones that you don't take. If I had the chance to re-do and re-live my life all over again I would have gone into that room that night...

I was also listening to AC/DC  and the 14 YR old ( who goes back to homeschooling tomorrow; our last and only student now, almost done, and he starts grade 11 because he's super-smart and skipped grades) said they're over-rated  and it sounds like they're just screaming! I can't believe it! How can he say that? I've never heard anyone call them "over-rated!" I can't believe he's MY kid! He obviously got that from my hubby's side!  I also heard a song 2112 on the radio I hadn't heard before but I thought it sounded like Rush  as it had their unique signature sound.....and I was right. If there's one thing that I do know, it's music.Growing up I also always knew I was never pretty enough to be a flight attendent so I always wanted to be the pilot instead.
