Monday mayhem?


I was feeding the g-pig when I saw this black 4Runner come speeding up our street and park in front of our house. The guy came running up our lawn yelling "Hey! Hello???"
Kevin was in the front room on my computer (
) with the front door open and the screen door shut. I thought the guy was one of Kevin's friends. Nope. I heard the following conversation commence:

Kevin: Uh, yeah?
Guy: Hey man, someone down the street just cancelled their order and now I've got a truck full of fish. I'll cut you a good deal, you want some?
Kevin: Uh, no thanks, I'm good.
Guy: I've got some really good stuff...tilapia, swordfish, you name it.
Kevin: No thanks.
Guy: Oh come on...I'll cut you a good dealKevin: I just made a Costco run. Our freezers are full. So no thanks.

Guy slams our screen door and jumps in his car and speeds off.

So random.

Then about 2 hours later I was sitting at the kitchen table talking to the insurance guy. Shaun was playing video games in the front room and Kevin was outside in his dorky headphones raking our front yard. I see this random bleeding guy come running up through our yard and sit in the chair in front of the front window. Kevin is just like what the hell and I hear through the screen door the guy saying his roommate hit him in the head with a rock and he just needs to sit down. Then he asks Kevin for a ride to the hospital. Kevin is just standing there all confused like usual.

Shaun goes outside and tells the guy he needs to keep moving on. Guy is gushing all over our patio and says he doesn't want to be running down the street because his roommate called the cops and he has a warrant for his arrest. Then he asks if he can hide in our garage. Shaun tells him again to leave and the guy just keeps sitting there bleeding. Finally Shaun told him he was gonna bust the other side of his head open if he didn't get off our front porch. Guy took off running and ran into the park at the end of the street.

The insurance adjuster asked me if everything was ok since I think I sounded distracted. I just said, "Nah I'm good...it's just been a really weird morning."


The Shrimp is doing good, growing and smashing my internal organs with his toes while cracking my ribs with his skull. You know, fetal obligations and all. Midwife said he's about 2lbs now and 15 inches long. And breech. Little bastard. She said to shine a flashlight on my lower stomach and he'll move towards it because babies are drawn to light (wtf, is he a moth?) so I tried it and low and behold, he moved! But as soon as I turned it off he flipped back to his comfy spleen pillow in my ribcage. We have a 3D ultrasound scheduled for the 15th,
so he better freaking cooperate.
