let’s have a donner party! i mean, dinner party!
I’m pretty sure the bones in my back are broken. I came to this conclusion when I received a “tweet” from my back simply stating: BROKEN. My grandmother always said, “If your body is trying to tell you something then you should listen”. My grandmother also always said, “Mussolini is the only man who ever knew how to properly run a country”. I’m pretty sure Grandma was a daytime drinker.
(Side note: Sophie’s Choice is airing on TCM tonight at 12:15AM. Best Meryl Streep performance ever? You decide. TIVO that shit!)
I am definitely getting wacky due to being housebound. I miss Big Dog. I miss the seasons…
Did someone say, “Donner”?

Yesterday, while Sister Husband and I were shoveling the snow my uterus fell out of my vagina. It hurt. I put it back in to the best of my ability, but the last time I technically“worked with an uterus”I’m pretty sure that I screamed, “Ooooh! Gross! It’s full of baby pigs!”and then promptly vomited on Mr. Cavitt’s classroom floor. So yeah. They don’t call me, “Dr. Bonesso” for nothing. And by “they”, obviously I mean the voices in my brain…
I have two shows tomorrow. 4R4R at 8PM and Alternative Comedy Night at 9:30PM. Both shows are at the Brillobox. The first show costs $5 and the second show is FREE!!!!
So allegedly Zach Galifianakis is hosting SNL next month. This is awesome for two reasons. (1) SNL rarely invites comedians to host. (2) Zach is an alternative comedian. Therefore, if you use the substitution process then you can deduce that ALTERNATIVE COMEDY IS TAKING OVER THE WORLD! Well, at least the SNL World. For a week. Regardless, I am DVR’ing that shiz!
I found a stink bug in my room this morning. I can hear a second one. I’m not afraid of them anymore. No. No, I am not. In fact, now after I kill them I save their shells. I am sewing them together to make my own shield sans the stink. I am one of them now…
Dear Kitty – Will I ever leave this house?
Fondly,

Hi Gab,
I too am going house crazy. Today was the first day I could get onto my street and I was so excited to go to RiteAid….sick!!! I am 52 yrs old and just learned what a stink bug is. Those little bastards are lOUD. My cat was freaking out, however she was smarter than me because I smashed it while she just watched it. It stunk!!! Thanks for the entertaining email. I am sooooo bored!!!!!!!!!!!
MaryLynn,
Thanks for commenting! I just wanted to warn you that once you see one stink bug then more and more will randomly appear. Allegedly, mint and garlic scents deter them. However, I live at home with my mother who roasts garlic daily and we’ve been infested. They are also attracted to light. I found a lot of information about them here:

I don’t know if you’re still housebound, but it’s a semi-interesting read if you are like me and fascinated by stink bugs.
Thanks again for reading!
Gab
If only we could train an army of stink bugs to shovel snow….
Thanks for the article Gab! I actually read it…how pathetic is that?? My whole work week was wiped out as well. Hang in there. Only a few more feet of snow and a couple blizzards and then it’s smooth sailing….sigh!!!!!!!!
