What a differnce a day makes

When I wrote this I totally meant one thing...

And now I totally mean another.

Nothing like one small thing to sneak up on you and take all the wind out of your sails. 

I hate it when I don't see something coming especially when it should have been obvious.

Another day another mental ass kicking

Seriously...

The highs  are getting higher.
The lows are getting lower.

Either the stakes are getting higher or I am going bi-polar.

or both.

*sigh*

Ahhh .... Sunday

Always so much fun...

Alouette - wtf

OK remember that song you used to sing?

That french little ditty you used to know and had no idea what it meant?

Alouette, gentille Alouette

 

 

 Yeah, that one... it was in a commercial today so I decided to look up what it meant.

 

Yeah.. it was weirdly disturbing:

Alouette, gentille Alouette

Lark, nice lark

Alouette, je te plumerai

Lark, I shall pluck you

Naturally, the literal English translation does not match up well with the meter of the song, so a slightly less literal (but more singable) version would be:

Little skylark, lovely little skylark

Little lark, I'll pluck your feathers off

I’ll pluck the feathers off your head

I’ll pluck the feathers off your head

Off your head - off your head

Little lark, little lark

*sigh*

I have to stop looking crap up.

Suddenly I realized ....

Suddenly I realized ....the universe I was in complete control of was spinning into chaos.

SIX

It may seem like an accomplishment, but this test drained me.
In the end I guess I should just be glad I passed.
OK on to other things now,  nothing else to see here.

Happy New Years Adam everyone

Get it?
Because Adam before Eve?

Thanks to Andrew for the whole Adam/ Eve thing...
Honestly I had not really ever thought about it but it is better than New Years Eve, Eve.
No?

Worst post ever.

There was lots of bad  news today and endless amounts of work to do.

I needed a laugh so I turned to my friend youtube for a while and that seemed to work.
After listing to Elmo order at the Taco Bell drive up window (seriously the link for it is *here* I almost pissed myself) the cat walked across my keyboard and and here was the result.

                                                                           11111112'[[[[[[]

Yep, that was the cats contribution.

Then I realized it was better than anything I had written. Yes the cat had accidentally put down the best thing I had written all day.

Then I was depressed again.

Stupid Cat.


 

Things are moving fast this week.

Wow. Trying to keep up.
Need more coffee.
Warp speed Scotty.

Re Dic?

Re Dic:

When a day is so stupid that only hipster style abbreviations can convey your mood. Thats what its used for OK?

Sunday morning shopping with the Girl

Why do they have to make so many salad dressings?

bonus overhead on the couch....

The Girl: "Why did you take that photo?"

Me: "I just thought the perspective looked cool."

The Girl: "Yeah, it does. I noticed you taking it,I thought: there he goes again."

Me: "What are you saying?"

The Girl: "Only you would see that... like the shiny lights that hang from the ceiling"

Me: " OK now you are just f'n with me."

The Girl: "Now?"

How my mind works...

 

Freind: Do you remember how we re-wired the pump at the cabin?

Me: Kind of ... something like this right? (whipping out the drawing skills)

Friend: Huh...OK that's what what I thought too...just one question.

Me: Whats that?

Freind: Why did you draw the outhouse?

Me: Its a process.

Its Bugging Me and other funny things the Girl Texts

The Girl: This Bug is why I cant (touch up the) paint the side of the house. I think it wants to bite me... (1:58 pm)

Me: Ha Ha I think yr safe (2:01 pm)

Update big bug is still out there... now closer to the back door. (2:59pm)

OK Ill get it when I get home. (3:00 pm)

I did it sweetie I killed the little man eating dinosaur...I had to run it over with my car but I still did it... we will be safe tonight. (3:55pm)

OK good... wait what? (3:59pm)

Stand back: I am about to do stuff

There is a fine line between brilliant and stupid from where I am standing I can not even see that line any more.

At Brecon Grill

I stopped by the Grill tonight to get a loaded burger and chill. The Girl is off on some adventure and left me to my own devices. That means cooking for myself and that means going out.
Don't get me wrong I can cook. Its just been a long day and I am tired 

A shotgun blast of sanity.

Lets face it things have not been going that smooth lately.
I did have a good birthday (thanks mostly to the Girl) and yet... certain stresses have be weighing heavy on my mind.
Out of the blue an old friend suggested we go skeet shooting at a rustic little place not far from home.
So I broke out the 12 gauge and grabbed my gear and off we when in the early morning mist.
 I did not shot the best... truth be told it took me a little while to dial it in so so speak. Once I did, I held my own.
There is something unmeasurably satisfying about swinging a shotgun across a perfect morning sky as a pair of small orange clay disks  come winging out of the tree line against a field of corn... and suddenly click... boom... boom... then shattered orange clay.
Only with shot on target confirmed do you exhale and smile. Two shells eject into the fall air and the smell of gunpowder fills the nostrils and the smile fills your face.It was all very last minute, informal and surprisingly satisfying.
So.
Much.
Fun.
I almost forgot tomorrow is Monday and it will be back to the grind.
Almost.

Today was a roller coaster ride...

I am not sure where I ended: up or down but I am pretty sure it was not on the up side.

Sunday Fail

It just did not work out the way I wanted it to today.

Now I cant even sleep right.

Stupid Sunday

Is it only me?

Or is the new Planet of the Apes movie more creepy than scary. More icky than evil. More freaky then... fraide.

OK that last bit does not make sense.
Seriously though it creeps me out.

Another unfortunate wording choice.

Ball permit?
Really?

I am not sure if it is more upsetting that they expect you to get a permit to play on an unused diamond or that they call the aforementioned "Ball Permit".
At least they used snazzy 80's graphics to distract you.
