I had a funeral to go to today. My grandmothers aunt, Minnie was her name. A short mass was held in the huge cathedral type thing in the middle of the cemetary. The place is huge and there are like 8 individual chaples to have the mass. Long story short, I will be recieving a "Thank you" card from some random family who also had a death that day but I only missed about the first 5 minutes of Minnie's funeral.
For a day anyway. Cam is probably boring when we're so in and out, but you know what? It's probably boring when we're here too. Christmas gift I am most pleased with? A 3 step step-ladder rated for big folk. I can now change lightbulbs without breaking something else in the house. Well, the ladder, and the minoxidyl. Watch out Sy Sperling.
if anyone watches us over the holiday?
I got a cool ceiling fan for Christmas. Replaced the old crap one that had some black stuff growing on it.
And boy.... are my LEGS tired. C'mon Todd. Fess up.
Question: One free, smoked, ready to eat turkey will be arriving at my apt tomorrow. It is a gift for the previous tenant. Do I:
1. Ask apt complex to contact her about her turkey?
2. Eat the turkey myself?
Thanks to Ken, of course. Who else would try to kill me? So we're moving his new "kangaroo" arcade game down into his basement. Todd wasn't helping. He was eating. You make the joke. Anyway, we've got the game on a furniture dolly, and Ken is letting it down the steps slowly as I hold it up from the bottom. He's starting to lose his grip, so I propose a plan where he lets it go, and I just ease it back down the steps. Before I can even finish the sentance, he lets the damn thing go. It's heavy. Very heavy. So I screamed that i would probably last another 2.3 seconds without dying, and Ken decided to grab the game again. It wasn't the plan that was the problem. It was the timing. Well, the timing, and the fact that Ken wants me dead.
I found a brown paper bag stuffed in my door. It was a group of folks collecting non-parishable food items for the Salvation Army. I filled the bag with cans of Tuna Fish (yuck), Hamburger helper (forget what kind but OFF brand Helper), some canned vegitables that are crap, some creamed corn of some sort and some Chicken soup (I would have ate that but I didn't know it was Cream of Chicken Soup, just wasn't right), I forget what else. I might have thrown some chocolate pudding mix in there too. I placed it on the porch. I hope some little kid has a spoon full of pudding right now. I wonder how that tasts with evaporated milk?
Merry Christmas!
Welcome back to the cam page, Eric! Hope you enjoyed your week off :)
So, I think I'm going to be moving on Tuesday after work - 6:00ish or so. If you would like to help, it would be greatly appreciated. If you plan on being there, please submit your beer and pizza preferences so I know what to get. Thanks.
So at the end of this xmas season when all decor goes on sale, I will buy 30 of those silly electric reindeer. I will have an entire heard of them for next year. I will only buy the ones that have thier head up looking back and forth with that "i smell danger" look.
This will rule.
In one syllable. That's the noise that someone here keeps making. cough. cough. cough. clear throat with grossest sound ever. I cannot fathom the phlegm thats coming out. At least 10 times a day. so. disgusting.
I may have taken a dive at the bowling alley last night. By dive, I don't so much mean purposly tanking my score. I suck enough where I don't actually have to do that on purpose. I mean dive, as in, like a diver. So, there was this slippery spot on the left lane. It was there, I swear. I may have lost my balance on what was destined to be a perfect throw. So, I was sittin there on the lane, thinkin, "man, this is really oily." I swam back up to the front of the lane and stood up, and, somehow, only my team saw me. For that, I am thankfull. If you're wondering, I kept the pins. :)
no lines. 30 people. no clear lines. the damn counter is just sitting there. no place to queue up. you know who got their first, but then some old lady with a handfull of coupons walks up to the register. "Hey lady, can't you see we're all collected here in a big blob of people waiting to check out?" Curse them. CVS that is. Old ladies are good for some things. Driving is not one of them,but that's another post.
#1 See Solaris.
Its rare to encounter such a horrid movie. I don't have the words to describe how terrible it was. 2nd time I ever actually wanted to leave a movie. Tied now for #1 on my worst movie ever list. What a bunch of crap.
