Sleepy, as usual. Bleh.

In part, it's because I watched 'The Crocodile Hunter' with hub. Never seen him before, just heard about him and saw endless parodies. That guy is very strange. If he wasn't ADHD when he was a kid, I will eat this monitor. I've never seen someone so happy to find cougar feces. Maybe it's more manic than ADHD... he seems so cheerful and excited. Every time he saw any animal (any at all) he had to go grab it, pick it up, remark on how it looked (usually stating how beautiful it was), chat with it, kiss on it, and then plop it back down. The show I saw, he grabbed up several varieties of rattlesnakes, a lizard, a bat, and probably a couple of other non-poisonous snakes. He was like a 4-year old in a candy store. It was pretty funny to watch, actually. He reminded me of Bob when Bob's in a really good mood.

I have listened to 'Busted Stuff' about 400 more times. I like it, yes I do.

Someone here at work had a shower or a birthday or something, so there were a couple of half-full 3-liters of soda lying around the breakroom. One of them was Dr.B, a store brand that one assumes is supposed to mimic DrPepper. Now, I love DrPepper more than any other drink, so I tried it. Lo! It does indeed taste like DrPepper! Huzzah.

I also tried a mango. Hub bought them for me for lunch. I've never had a fresh mango, and probably never will again. The thing was confusing. I didn't know if I was supposed to eat the whole thing like an apple or peel it or what, so I decided to slice it up. The knife barely went through; I felt like I was trying to cut up a brick. I sliced my hand trying to cut the thing. And the smell! It had a nasty peppery smell that came from the peel. I finally managed to hack it apart, except for a really tough part in the center that may or may not have been a pit- I'll never know because I never saw a pit. The flesh did not come off of the assumed pit like it does in a peach or nectarine, so I just pitched a big gob of flesh that might've had a pit in it somewhere. I ate a few nibbles of the flesh, but the smell was revolting and I ended up putting it out for the birds to eat. Bleh. I want friendlier fruit, like prickly pears.
