Sorry, can't rush these things, DVD! Perhaps next time with the tea. Maybe just a quick chill pill, then?

I'll have some industrial coffee. Then I have to decide whether to be "Mr Grouchy Fuck" this morning or be something less obnoxious.

good morning all... its 420 where i am

Post by Simply Joel » Fri Feb 04, 2005 6:33 am

I woke up late this AM with sore muscles after spending three fun filled hours discussing, planning and cutting lumber for a 4' long, 1' wide model suspension bridge which should have bee completed during the christmas vacation for the 15 year old. So the final paper is now going to be late by one weekend.... we build the bridge tonight, we stress test it until it breaks this weekend, and he writes his findings all before bedtime sunday.

Today, I get to meet with all the young men's teachers and principal at 3PM and discuss a strategy for their educational success.

decaf please.

Yeah, fuck this day, and fuck you Ms. I'm-so-responsible-voice-in-my-head.

Days like these I believe are mocking me, when it is painfully pretty outside, and all I want to do is dissappear into a nice dark hole in the ground.

[Everybody sing along]

She had that
Camarillo brillo
Flamin' out along her head,
I mean her Mendocino bean-o
By where some bugs had made it red

She ruled the Toads of the Short Forest
And every newt in Idaho
And every cricket who had chorused
By the bush in Buffalo

She said she was
A Magic Mama
And she could throw a mean Tarot
And carried on without a comma
That she was someone I should know

She had a snake for a pet
And an amulet
And she was breeding a dwarf
But she wasn't done yet
She had gray-green skin
A doll with a pin
I told her she was awright
But I couldn't come in
(I couldn't come in right then . . . )

And so she wandered
Through the door-way
Just like a shadow from the tomb
She said her stereo was four-way
An' I'd just love it in her room

Well, I was born
To have adventure
So I just followed up the steps
Right past her fuming incense stencher
To where she hung her castanets

She stripped away
Her rancid poncho
An' laid out naked by the door
We did it till we were un-concho
An' it was useless any more

She had a snake for a pet
And an amulet
And she was breeding a dwarf
But she wasn't done yet
She had gray-green skin
A doll with a pin
I told her she was awright
But I couldn't come in
(actually, I was very busy then)

And so she wandered
Through the door-way
Just like a shadow from the tomb
She said her stereo was four-way
An' I'd just love it in her room

Well, I was born
To have adventure
So I just followed up the steps
Right past her fuming incense stencher
To where she hung her castanets

She said she was
A Magic Mama
And she could throw a mean Tarot
And carried on without a comma
That she was someone I should know

(Is that a real poncho . . . I mean
Is that a Mexican poncho or is that a Sears poncho?
Hmmm . . . no foolin' . . . )

funny thing, when i was hired full-time for the military, my boss always opened his left bottom drawer and pulled out a bottle of Johnny Walker Red, poured a stiff drink into his coffee cup at 2:30 in the afternoon.

and now, after many years passing...

i understand why.

Dang....I'm back from the vet with my cat....I'm sad, but glad I guess. Last summer she had a cancerous growth on the middle of her tail and had to get it amputated. A few days ago I felt another bump at the end of her nubby tail.....bad news now she has to get another part taken off. Good news is it's only on her tail and no where else.

M goes behind the bar and grabs a Leinie's Creamy Dark out of the fridge and guzzles a third of it down.........

Thanks, Buckethead. Thanks, Guin.
My pets are my kids and I hate to see them hurting.
She made it through the other surgery and seemed to be feeling better. Hope this one goes as well on monday. The doc assured me that she WILL be sending some pain meds home with me this time so I don't have to make a trip back for some.
