The Yellow Dust Storm

Filed under: General, geek mother's rantings — ladykatza @ 7:05 pm

Yes, I’m writing about the pollen again. It permeates everything this time of year. Getting things ready for grocery shopping I had opened the car door and then slammed it shut. I got a face full of the fine yellow dust and it caused me to go into a fit of coughing and made my eyes water. ACK!

One of the things I had to do today was take Simon’s recycling to the scrap metal place. I’m always amused when I go there because the demographic of people you see there is so amazingly varied. Also, its almost all immigrant workers there, mostly spanish speaking. For the longest time I really had a problem with people from the Latin/South American culture because they STARE. I found out later on that this is acceptable in their culture, its considered a compliment to stare at attractive women (a certain friend of mine is probably shaking his head at me right now, but its ok, I’ll make up for it later ;) ). I digress though. I LOVE going to the recycling place, its such an ego boost. They stare and try to chat me up, smile, and are otherwise so very helpful.

So , Renaissance Festival is tomorrow. Its a two-for-one weekend, so I’ve organized several people to go with us. I’m taking my camera and possibly even my video camera (if i can find all the attachments). Hopefully I’ll have lost of pictures to share.

And now its Time for Dinner!
