Yucko Training

I just got my reminder notice that I have training tomorrow at 8:45 am.  This means I will get off at 7am and have to hang around for a few hours before getting to go home.  It does not make me happy.  I won’t get paid for the time between getting off and the training [...]

Somebody Stop Me Please

What I need is one of those invisible dog fences at the entrance to every store so that, as I get closer and closer, I get a shock. Kind of like shark shields too. That way, every time I get near a Barnes and Nobel, Target, Best Buy, Wal-Mart, Borders, etc., I will not be [...]

Rescued Tiger in Malaysia

I know I harp on this a lot but it infuriates to the point of rage when people think they have a right to poach animals off refuges or anywhere.  This kind of thing needs to stop NOW before all our endangered species are no longer endangered but have moved to [...]

Sleepwalking Again

Sometimes I feel like I am sleepwalking through life.  I know most of you know what I’m talking about – I’m not putting forth any real effort to make life better or worse.  I’m floating down the middle of the river without a care which might sound ok but in reality, it isn’t.  Life is [...]

Mako Shark

Once again I find myself outraged over the sensless death of a beautiful creature by stupid men who think gaffing a shark from the safety of their boat is somehow “sport.” Sport would be getting in the water to gaff the shark – not safely hunting it from above. I think the quote from Jamie [...]

Tempted

I am so tempted to request off at 11pm both Monday and Tuesday night – at least Tuesday night.  But I tell myself the problem I have those two nights each week is not going to go away so just have to deal.  How pitiful is it that my coworker who works 11pm-3am Wed-Fri and [...]

Kind of Strange

I was told by someone recently that it is a little strange and surprising that I have never contemplated suicide.  Not that I have a reason to but these thoughts do seem to cross most depressed people’s minds now and then.  But not mine.
I have a favorite quote from Agatha Cristie that I think sums [...]

Writing

Well, I’ve spent about 90 minutes typing in a few chapters of my latest story.  I do believe, if it ever is published, I will have to use a pseudonym.  Sometimes I wonder about my mildly convoluted mind.  Where do I come up with some of the horrors I visit on my characters? Maybe I’ve [...]

Hilarious

Talk about something being hilariously ironic – I finally get an offer on my condo just after I’m served the foreclosure documents.  Isn’t that just so damn laughable that it makes a person want to laugh till they cry? I know I sure laughed over it.  It is too late, according to the attorney, to [...]

Bread in the Oven

Put the last loaf of bread in the oven – can’t wait till it is done so I can have some with melted butter.  I love this stuff.  There were three loaves originally but made the other two over the last few months.  Tonights loaf is the last one. 
Was sitting here working on the computer [...]
