Yesterday was sooooo much fun, I don't really know where to begin . I laid down for a cat nap that turned into four hours and the phone rang and woke me up at exactly the time I was suppose to be at my friends house. I return her call to thank her for waking me up and she denies that she called. I do my Superman telephone booth get dressed routine grab the camera and out the door I go. We get to Golden Gate Park and begin our journey into the park till we reach Speedway Meadows. We've only been there three times this month alone but we still get lost everytime. Pop open a beer and follow the music . We missed Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks by just a few minutes. We find our spot and set up camp. Open up the pinic basket Boo-Boo I'm hungry. If the pictures came out I'll post them later, I had to leave the camera at my friends's house. There was Starship, Quicksilver, Canned Heat, Jerry Miller, It's A Beautiful Day and lots more. I took a walk to see the different booths and whatever, got hungry and bought a brownie, got lost in the crowd and finally found my way back to our spot. Meanwhile , my friend met these two guys and was watching their stuff for them while they moseyed around. I return all dazed and confused but loving it!!! The guys return and ask us if we'd like to go backstage. Now we're backstage Partying with ALL the bands and the other people. The merlot was simply divine best wine I've ever had and the food was great too. Now it's time to leave and as per usual we get to that fork in the road my friend and I both point in oppsite directions as to which way to go and some passerby got hysterical watching us. We wrote down the crazy comments we made while we were there. The best was when my friend ask me what time it was and I said; "I got no time". I still haven't adjusted my clocks , maybe today, maybe not.

How Long Do You Wait?
How long do you wait for: Hunger pains to physically take over and force you into the kitchen? How long do you wait before knocking on the bathroom door ? How long do you wait for you significtick (I know it's spelled wrong) to wake their #%&* up so you can go do something anything "TOGETHER"? And I don't want to shoot pool, or go to the Mac store and buy the same things I could get at WrongAide for el cheapo! How long? If I keep this up I'll have the makings of either a good fried egg sandwhich or a horrible country song... One less egg to fry, wait that's been done, I should have changed that lock, na... Tainted love please don't touch me....When I met you you were working at cocktail bar.... There's got to be one that fits.. Take a vodka drink take a whiskey drink.....

The Train..
The train runs underground and above ground you pay your money and get a reciept that is time and date stamped. Yeah so, so how is it that Andrea and I put our money in at the same time different machines and she got ten minutes more for her buck fiffty? Also why does the same size bottle of milk 976ml of chocolate cost a whole dollar more? And how could it possibly take seven days to deliever a pizza? I swear that is what the sign said ,"7 day pizza delieverly". These are just a few of the things I wonder about, but not on a daily basis. I watched this guy talk to the parking meter the other day, people would pull up and park in this space, he would just keep talking to the meter, the cars would pull back out of the space and leave, he just kept talking, another car, another car, he just kept talking, finally the "EXPIRED" clicked up , yep, he walked off.

I have spent the whole day in bed....
Because .#1. I have to work 2night. #2. The weather set the mood. #3. I had some one to fool around with. So am I satisfied Hell no! They got what they wanted , I got some of what I wanted and off to pool they get up and go, but what I really wanted what I really wanted was an all day event. I wanted to be "Worshiped" and pampered not patted on the head. I could get a pet for that kind of attention, my stuffed monkey at least stares at me without blinking! My stuff monkey will even wrap his arms around me and hold on. I'm headed for the bubble bath and beyond, Buzz Buzz Lightyear where are you?
Sleeping Weather
I awoke to the sound of raindrops on the fire escape this morning,what a beautiful noise very legato. So I'm not going to be here long, I'm headed back to bed to cuddle up with my pillow and maybe have some wild fantasy before I have to really get up. The wildest thing I can think of is my roommates drank some magicaly potion and suddenly they feel the need to "Clean up ". It's to the point that I might just walk out one day ... They've been warned, I am no one 's maid. I don't feel like even thinking about it, I'd like to call the health dept. I'd really like it if Mr. Clean would bust down the door and stand there with his arms folded and scare the daylights out of them. Oh yeah and carry me off on his broad shoulders all the while saying "You're safe now". In fact it'd be wonderful to be rescued by some big strong OCD male with an earring. I have the strangest fantasies. I hear my pillow calling me , it's a very soft spoken pillow, Skye, Skye,c'mon back to bed, Skye stop playing around and come here.

See this building directly out my window, well if I could I'd be showing midnight movies on it. Any one have any sugggestions for our Grand Openning? I haven't worked out how we gonna hook up the car speakers yet, so let's not get nick picky just go with the flo.... Man oh man, if I'd won the Power Ball Lottery, this is one of the things I'd do bring back drive-in movies. I think this is one reason marriages don't last now a days. Today is gonna be a great day! I'm trying to convince myself of this, I've repeated it now 100 times. Sat. Andrea played in the Nine Ball tourament and won her entry fee +20. Then she invited me to play a few games and I beat her five games in a row. She wanted to know when did I get so good! I never practice, all I do is work, so when did I get good? The truth is it wasn't Tuesday night, it wasn't a bar table, and I had no money on any of those games so why wouldn't I win. Meanwhile back at the ranch, my friend got to go to the Exotic Erotic Ball Sat. night. She and I went one year but we were too busy having a great time in the parking lot to make it inside !! A friend invited her to go with him and they had a Wonderfully Wicked time. I'm glad, she really needed a fun filled event. ** Outside my wind ow, out side my wind ow, ** I was just thinking about that Eric Carmen song. All by myself. ** The other day I heard the Talking Heads, now for the longest time for some strange reason David Byrne was stuck on my pc no real reason that I know of but I couldn't delete him or anything. Finally that tower got replaced. So the other day I hear the Talking Heads and of course the DJ says that's the artist and I started laughing . Mystery solved. I never answer the door when some one knocks on it I'm afraid it'll be Jessica Fletcher. I'm too young to die two more months and I'll have reached the 1/2 century mark. I want a BIG FAT FIFTY PARTY!! I want male and female strippers, I want an open bar, I want a live band that can play any request that any guest makes, I want dancing, Food that never runs out. I want to invite all of my Blog Friends as well as my friends, come as you are / bring someone if you want to, dress up /dress casual I don't care where you wear the tie!!! Just come. Well that's my dream Birthday Party. Let me know if you had a great time. I'd better go play the lottery if I'm gonna even buy myself a card.

What a day!
Today was a very long day it seemed to me. I was afraid to go to sleep after work because I had to go to jury duty and I was worried I'd fall asleep and you know be late. So I go to my friend's house she isn't ready to go yet , I lay down and I was out in two minutes flat. Her Mother called four times to tell us not to forget all the paper work, I was so out of it I never even heard the phone not once. Finally we leave and get to the court house with thirty seconds to spare. So now we're looking at the penny saver she brought two of them and we're getting hysterical reading the ads. You'd think we were in church or something everybody was so lifeless. They call the first group of names and give us a break. We wouldn't even been there except my friend misread the number when she called in so they kindly sent her a summons. We return from break and they begin calling names again and this time we are free to go jury duty complete. So now I am wiped out and to tired to think about too much of anything except where is my blanket and my pillow. Goodnight .

This Is Where I Wish I Was Right Now!
"The Adventures Of FatBoy"
"Git down off the couch, did you hear me?" FatBoy! Just look what you've done to the blinds! Ohhh! Stop being so cute, can't you see I'm MAD at you?" FatBoy jumps off the couch, spins and darts from living room to the kitchen and back up on the couch and barks at me. "Woof woof woof woof! "What did you say? Woof woof. No way! You've got paw prints on my satin pillows, and look now there is this tear in it. WOOF! I suppose you're proud of yourself. Leaping off the couch and running down the hall barking all the way back to me , FatBoy can't control his excitement any longer. He begins scratching at the door. I look out the window of the door. OMG! How did I ever sleep through all of this commotion? The guy next door is having his mobile home hitched up and pulled out of the trailer park. "Arrughhmmgh." "No you're not going out there can't you see those guys got it jack knifed and stuck. Arrughhmmgh. Not even on the leash. Arrugh! He flings his body onto the cushion of the couch. I've ruined his whole day. Now he'll have nothing interesting to tell the other dogs about, how could I be so mean. I can't stand to see a grown dog cry so I give in to his demands and put him outside on the leash. Now the incessive barking really begins, this was the reason I was holding back on letting him out. I 've actually seen squirrls throw nuts down on him to get FatBoy to shut up. It would work until he'd finish the nut and bark and demand more nuts! It was FatBoy who managed to get the squirrls in my neighborhood to become nocturnal, it was the only way they could get out of the tree and across the yard safely. The guys moving the moblie home glance over at FatBoy, I know what they're thinking make that dog shut up. Sure enough one of them says it, "Hey Lady, can ya keep that dog quite?" C'mon FatBoy let's go for a walk. Taking FatBoy for a walk is very commical in it's own rights. It's like being the Pied Piper with out the rats. Nikki leads the way , then me and FatBoy and comming with us today will be Nosiey bringing up the rear. Doesn't matter which way we go we still have to pass by the trailer guys and as we do so both Nikki and FatBoy let out some kinda barking fit . Whatever it was those two were hystrical about it. Looking back at Nosiey she's flicking her tail at them as she passes by. The trailer guy has his hat off scratching his head. Our trailer park was next to a canal that eventually fed into the Sacramento River. In the Summer it would be dry enough you could walk in it , as Fall would approach they would let off water from Shasta Damn and the canal would fill up. This water was COLD! Nikki got in it once , she never got in it again too cold for her. We spent about an hour walking around, finally the sound of a truck moving slowly and yes the trailer in tow. FatBoy saw a chance to get the last word in as the trailer approached us. "WOOF woof wooof wooof ahhhwoof."

I am inadequate, wait a minute now quit laughing so hard. There are a lot of you that I would love to link to your blogs, but after 3 months of this I can not figure out how to link. I could never satisfy anyone because I can't link. I can dance, but I can't link. Now mind you I have repeatedly asked for help and this is a sample of what I get..."You do this, you then do this and then you hit this." I slowly follow these instructions and guess what happens nothing.!!! So the other night at pool I asked one of my dearest friends and he explained it to me in very simple terms. Today is Friday do I remember , Heck no! Also there is my avatar from Yahoo which I dressed up , ok, it's the only time I play dress up except at halloween in which I feel like I'm in drag because my friends got me into a dress! Alright so they had me wrapped like a mummy, I still felt confined. On the Sunny side Andrea took third place in a pool tourament last night, she said she was still playing at six a.m. this morning. I must be tired me and my spell check actually agreed on a word! **** Now I will share with you the adventures of Nikki and FatBoy.******* "The Adventures Of Nikki And FatBoy"********* starring Nikki a mixed Border Collie and her side kick FatBoy a delightful Chinese Pug.******** with special guest appearence by Nosiey, a fat cat with a curiosity.********************Nikki came into my life by accident, but them maybe it wasn't who knows. We were out walking one morning when we heard this sound and it seem to be coming from the dumpster so my friend and I we went up to the dumpster and after climbing to the top of it we were shocked to see this cute puppy in there. Annie said , "How are we going to get her out? I suppose I'll have to climb in and hand her up to you". That's how were acquired Nikki. She was the best dog ever, faithful, protective and good with kids.Well wait not all kids Nikki didn't like teenage boys, we finally decided that perhaps it was teenage boys who had put her in the dumpster. Then Uncle Bob gave us FatBoy, a Chinese Pug, Uncle Bob wasn't related but he looked after us. We already had Izzy the iguana, named Izzy because we didn't know Izzy's gender at all. So one day Nikki being the oldest and FatBoy the baby, FatBoy would get out and run wild . Calling him was a waste of time the wind blowing through his ears prevented him from hearing anything that sounded like "STOP", "Sit" or "C'mere". So, I told Nikki go get your baby. She took off with one single bound grabbed him by the nap of the neck and drug him back home. FatBoy was not pleased with that outcome. Then one day , Nosiey took up residence with us, she was willed to us from our dear friend. She knew would never be happy with her Mom and she knew Nosiey got along with FatBoy. That was because Nosiey was the QUEEN. "You come to my house then you do as I say." FatBoy would try and cut up with her but Nosiey would have no part of his silly antics. Nikki didn't care for Nosiey, there was only room for one Queen and Nikki wasn't giving in to "NO" cat. The day arrived sadly , that Nosiey came to live with us. You could tell Nosiey missed Charlotte as we all missed her. You could also tell that there was a lot of Charlotte in Nosiey. Nosiey was used to the finest feline things and our budget at the time was barely in exsistance. Talk about the food chain you know you're cooking is bad when FatBoy wouldn't eat it. FatBoy was the last to eat because if we didn't feed him last no one else got anything. Nosiey would go first , then Nikki and finally FatBoy. We couldn't allow them to eat all at the same time because FatBoy would make the rounds and if we didn't intervene then Nosiey would rule in her worst but best Bette Davis role. It took a long time to break Nosiey of that horrible habit. One day out of no where everyone just gave up, gave in and got along. I wish over and over I had a picture of that morning I came outside and all three were sitting in the wooden swing together. Nikki on one side, FatBoy on the other and Nosiey in the middle. One January morning, you could see Mt. Shasta from our place, the snow glistening off of Mt. Shasta and it was cold that day eight degrees , and you know those UPS people where in their shorts, I still shiver thinking about that scene. Later on it warmed up some , I don't think it got above 40 that day. I began calling everyone to come in as it was appraoching sunset and the temperature would be dropping soon. Nosiey was the last to return. It looked like she had been shopping she had something in her mouth. She got closer and FatBoy began to get excited , like he was in on this caper, but wasn't suppose to tell. I glanced over at Nikki to see if she was in on it. Nikki could be sneaky and blame it on the other two as if she was sooo innocent. Nosiey got her self and the package on the door step and dropped it at our feet. OMG! It's a package of Prime Rib and she didn't even puncture the clear wrap! Annie and I stood there stunned for a few seconds, then we busted out laughing!! That night all of us celebrated. I know all three of them were in on it, but only Nosiey was able to slip in and out undectected. I also know why they left FatBoy at home that day he would have blown their cover.

Go Astro's!
Go Astro's, I got money on you and if you guys win I don't have to do the laundry for a month! Go Astro's! All ya gotta do is win by one run each night doesn't have to be no big blow-out, just one run more than the sox's. Oh and if ya don't win I'm bundling up the laundry and sending it to ya. Beleive me you want to win!
I took this quiz and I found out what I already knew, that I was born in the wrong state. I should have been born in the show me state. It's no wonder that I don't get along with my family in Ga. They see a hurricane as just another rain storm it'll blow over, I see it as a potential danger. Now I know why my girlfriend says quit being so negative , I say I'm just telling you as it is. And that glass that is half way, yep, it's half empty! So it turns out that little ole me coming from the heart of the bible belt (excuse me I burped) I guess the belt was too tight, now I know why it seems like I've been fighting all my life. I've been fighting ideas , philosophies , ways of doing things, the only thing I haven't tried to change is the sun, moon and the stars and I'm sure if given the chance I'd rearange the stars so I could see better at night w/o all the street lamps. I love camping, the camp fire smell of coffee on a clear brisk morning, I love lying back on my sleeping bag with a rock for my pillow and picking out the stars in the night sky. So I guess I have discovered that in a small way I am a Control Freak! I'm not possessive if I have something and you need it I'll gladly share with you. The result of having a Mother who is a Leo and me being a Sag., this doesn't leave a lot of room for compromise. There was only one highway and it wasn't mine. The only true thing I know, is you should never ever point out to your Mom that you know she is lying. No no no! My Mom has got a very wicked back hand,ouch!!, that still smarts all these years later. Sometimes being right is better enjoyed alone. I think this is why I'm always slow about telling my best friend who slept with her boyfriend. I tried to tell her and I lost both of them. I suddenly became the bad guy. So girls if you don't want to know what your guy is doing please don't ask me, I don't care to get involved, been there done that over it. Yes, that dress makes you look awful., but you don't want me to tell you that either now do you? If you have to ask you already know the answer! Of course that darling little salesgirl told you look great, she's counting her commission. AHHHHH! my head hurts is it Thanksgiving yet? I drank enough Wild Turkey with Honey last night to project us all into Thanksgiving. Has anyone had a Titty Licker yet, oh oh oh!!! The guys call it a cock sucker, all I know is it is soooooo good! We were doing shots of Tequila Rose but the bar tender forgot my shot glass so being the lady I'm not! I get the bottle, uhummmm good! We are not even going to dicuss the drama from last night, all I have to say is next season I will be captain and there will not be any one on my team I have remotely thought about sleeping with! I think I'll have only guys except for me. I did manage to do something right yesterday, my girl friend is saving to every nickle dime and penny to get her operation, and my old girlfriend was in need of a little bit more to pay the property taxes. So we all sat down and calmly talked it over and Andrea being the sweet person she is willing donated the portion of the money that was needed to make the payment. It's great because I can always work harder to replace it, and the other doesn't lose her house, it might mean that the operation is put off but only by a small window. If I quit smoking , yeah right, that would be replacing the money even faster. I went by a lot of blogs yesterday and everyone has some sort of heavy thinking thing going on. I guess I'll try and make me some pancakes now, drinking sure makes me hungry the next day.

Lazy British Police Dog
Over at abc news is an article about a lazy police dog that was let go from the force. I never thought about maybe some dogs just don't care about sniffing out criminals . Eating fries and making friends were higher on his agenda than taking a bite out of crime, proably tasted better too. It doesn't seem like they let him search for drugs, maybe they should have he might have finally gotten interested in his job. Any way McGruff he wasn't. He now is the loving pet he was born to be in a nice respectable home. Well one thing is for sure, he knew what he wanted and how to achieve his goals. "What me work", I want a house in the country with birds to chase and a shade tree. It would be great if we could apply that theory to our lives and work would pay us to stay away! I've always said give me enough money and I won't come back every day asking for more. I get the feeling that they just ignore my pleas. What I really don't get is why they always give the new hires the weekends off. Everywhere I've ever worked that was a big deal to get a M-F work week. Ok, so I don't care for sports unless I'm playing centerfield, althought most captains put me out in left field. Their reason is because you play like Lucy, your too busy checking your compact or your lips. Hey, I say I'm your best looking on the team presentation is 98% of the sale. I feel like if you can hit the ball you could at least hit it into my glove. I don't like to perspire and running would mess my hair up. I know it's Tuesday and I'm trying not to think about pool tonight and how I have to play all four games and how I must win, The pressure is to great!

Sunday all day long
It was Sunday all day long yesterday, I felt a need to escape the long lines of people people everywhere I go. After a hour of speed sleeping , I got up and got dressed and boarded the first underground train that was outbound from the city. Total time of travel half an hour , I arrive at my friends house. We load up the truck as if we are going on a camping trip, we were only going to the beach. The beach is empty because everyone is at the De Young Museum that was having it's Grand Openning the crowd was forty minutes long to wait to get in and take the free tour. To me that seems just plain crazy to wait that long to go inside on a beautiful day , what a waste! We get to the beach, climb down the rough terain , locate the perfect spot. The waves were reported to be breaking at 10-15 feet high, I think I saw one around 5' that was just swell. The sun was heating everything up except the water, the temperature of the ocean was proably 58 degress, brrr to cold for my skinny white chicken legs! So we didn't ride the boogie board, another day for getting that wet. Since we weren't getting in the water we decided to eat our lunch. The hard boiled eggs that we almost forgot to bring with us. The melon, cheese and crackers, the oysters and the Resina. My friend wants to go look for sand dollars ,I just want to soak up the sun and dream of far away places. You know , I find I sleep really good on the beach, the roar of the waves crashing so close that I swear I can feel the mist coming off them. My friend comes back and tells me it's time. Oh no we got to go. No, it's time for jello. Jello shots. yum yum. Vodka jello shots. What a great day, it was Sunday all day long. We watched the sun drop below the horizon and then we left and headed home.

Halloween Pictures
Ya know, I just wanted a Halloween picture, but everything I looked at scared the liven crap out of me. On top of I got to go to work later. I was going get a Halloween mask the other day but they look too life like, believe me on this I work at NIGHT outside OK? You daytime people don't SEE the real homeless, loveless people that Only come out at night. Next time you have the chance to go to a movie at night be aware of your surroundings, you'll see what I'm saying. Please understand from right here I am not making fun of the less fortunate. Sometimes I think, they must have a death wish, in the middle of the street one leg missing or rolling around in a wheelchair while cars and large vehicles fly pass them proably not even seeing them. There's this one to me, she reminds me of a trantrulator , all in black low to the ground and moves slowly and deliberately in that wheel chair. Mind you I'm NOT scared easily , ok sometimes I get jumpy but that cause my helper sneaks up on me and never speaks as he 's walking up I turn around and there he is---------DANG say something, wait a minute I got to wait for my heart to restart. This one night some crazy man came running up to me demanding I have sex with him, (Uh Hello, I'm the wrong person) he says "I got a knife, I say so I got a mache! He says get up by the wall, I say, you pull it out and you can kiss it goodbye. I don't recommend everyone have this type of confrontation, you're actually better off ignoring them or mumble hi and keep going quickly. I like to vary my routine, back when I was a rookie at this job, I was as predictable as a clock. I had one homeless guy tell me ,"You must have been on vacation?" Why's that? "Cause I haven't seen you in two weeks." Point here is, ok so they aren't in a home of their own, but don't underestimate them. I saw one sitting by a wall at Starbucks yesterday with a Nice laptop . I don't know if it worked or if he was just typing to mess with people's minds. Then there was this guy who everyday would "Bless " my truck by throwing oranges on it, everyday. I swear to the powers that be this was his reply when I questioned him one morning,"Why do you do that? Orangcha having a good day!" I deserved it I had to ask. Oh no I got to get ready for the night shift now, ok so I'll leave you with this old saying,"May you always get what you desire and not what you deserve." I'll try and keep it safe for all of you again tonight. Good night.

Home Fuel Prices To Jump
Ok, so there has never been a better time to cuddle up with the one ya love. If it's gonna be cold we'll proably have an increase in the birth rate come Spring and Summer.Those of you who can remember the "Ice Storms" of a few winters back, all you need is some thermals, extra socks and a ski hat, several scarfs, sweaters and one big coat. Mind you it is hard to do any thing all bundled up but hey you're warm aren't ya! You can forget going out and sitting in the car to keep warm, I know I can't afford to run that engine just cause the radio has better reception than the house stereo. My brilliant idea of a month ago was to have the Landlord shut off the steam heater in the apartment. We have three PC in here and they generate enough heat w/o that heater behind me always going "Phssss" to everything I say. Although once in awhile I'd convince myself that it was one of those water landscape bubbling and trickling and it would be so soothing to fall asleep to , until the Landlord came up and said it was leaking down to the apartment below us.
That's where I reminded him he never came back to fix it from when it blew the valve off one night and steam was shooting every where. All I could think to do was grab out a few of my dry clean clothes and stand there holding them letting the steam clean them. My roommate goes ,"Do something.". I am I said, can't you see I'm saving money! I'm going to get the Landlord he says, Hold on a minute, I got two more jackets to clean." Well by the time he got the Landlord the steam was over and my clothes were so nice and pressed. He comes in all worried and behaving like some cartoon character wringing his hands and I'm sitting there like ,"Oh, Hi it's nice to see you, How's you're wife?" So I get accused of breaking the heater valve, at which point I say sorry no, look at it , the heat melted the stem that holds the valve on there. (I do know that at a certain temperature metal will melt) and my chemical sign is FU.!! Brilliant Rocket Scientist Landlord goes and picks up the valve, (if you would like audio insert a very loud scream here.) "That's hot! "No really, can I hold it, I've always liked hot drippy metal things burning a hole in my hand. Why do you think I had the pot holder there!!! So, he goes and does something and forgets to ever come back til one night the heater is leaking down stairs, which he thought he was gonna blame on us. Everything happens on a Tuesday around here. I had decided not to go to pool so he wasn't counting on anyone but the one roommate being here. The Pittbull in me came out, and I reminded him he never came back to fix the heater. The good thing about working outside at night is when you do get inside it feels warm , even though everyone else is sitting there all bundle up, as long as my feet are warm I'm ok. My feet, my nose and my boobs are good indicators of how cold it is outside.Then there's this pre-menapausal thing, I should go live in Alaska, maybe not though, I'd melt an igloo in no time flat. My poor co-worker will be all bundle up and I've got my head out the window like a dog going to the park. Once, I heard this noise, I look over at him,"Are you making that noise?" "Yeah, I'm cold and my teeth are chattering. There's something wrong with you, if you're always cold you're not getting enough iron." Nevermind that is was about 40 out side. This subject always leads me to , and if you'd work at the pace that I do you'd never be cold. There's this one place we go that the radio reception is awful so all we can get is the Radio Disney or the Spanish station that has that hysterical program. I don't care for it because I don't like people yelling unless it's FIRE get out of the Building! He dislikes the RadioDisney, and I'm not putting the radio on talk programs. If any of you have ever listen to RadioDisney, the first hour is informative, but after that it's replayed over ad over right into the next night. I guess my helper thinks I'm just you're average dumb blonde, but see I know better it's #613 brundry red. I caught him singing the other night ,"I'm Mister Lonely" , Hey that's good I tell him do you do request? Then my song comes on just like clock work 5:25 a.m. it's the Hamster Dance. I can't help it when this song goes on I begin working like crazy, the bags are a flying the boxes are a movin, "I want my MTV". Mova mova. Money for nuthin and you're chicks for free." Well, now I have got to get ready to go to $4.bucks and get my coffee. As that one song says , "I got to break away", or I like this one, "Life is a Highway"
That's where I reminded him he never came back to fix it from when it blew the valve off one night and steam was shooting every where. All I could think to do was grab out a few of my dry clean clothes and stand there holding them letting the steam clean them. My roommate goes ,"Do something.". I am I said, can't you see I'm saving money! I'm going to get the Landlord he says, Hold on a minute, I got two more jackets to clean." Well by the time he got the Landlord the steam was over and my clothes were so nice and pressed. He comes in all worried and behaving like some cartoon character wringing his hands and I'm sitting there like ,"Oh, Hi it's nice to see you, How's you're wife?" So I get accused of breaking the heater valve, at which point I say sorry no, look at it , the heat melted the stem that holds the valve on there. (I do know that at a certain temperature metal will melt) and my chemical sign is FU.!! Brilliant Rocket Scientist Landlord goes and picks up the valve, (if you would like audio insert a very loud scream here.) "That's hot! "No really, can I hold it, I've always liked hot drippy metal things burning a hole in my hand. Why do you think I had the pot holder there!!! So, he goes and does something and forgets to ever come back til one night the heater is leaking down stairs, which he thought he was gonna blame on us. Everything happens on a Tuesday around here. I had decided not to go to pool so he wasn't counting on anyone but the one roommate being here. The Pittbull in me came out, and I reminded him he never came back to fix the heater. The good thing about working outside at night is when you do get inside it feels warm , even though everyone else is sitting there all bundle up, as long as my feet are warm I'm ok. My feet, my nose and my boobs are good indicators of how cold it is outside.Then there's this pre-menapausal thing, I should go live in Alaska, maybe not though, I'd melt an igloo in no time flat. My poor co-worker will be all bundle up and I've got my head out the window like a dog going to the park. Once, I heard this noise, I look over at him,"Are you making that noise?" "Yeah, I'm cold and my teeth are chattering. There's something wrong with you, if you're always cold you're not getting enough iron." Nevermind that is was about 40 out side. This subject always leads me to , and if you'd work at the pace that I do you'd never be cold.

It's Tuesday Leah.
Yes once again it's Tuesday and that means getting dressed and going to pool.Tonight I'm going to win if it means going and buying a trick cue ball. If you haven't seen one of those it is defintely a must see. You hit the cue ball and it goes right up to the object ball then out of no where goes off on it's happy adventure. Hopefully this week I won't shoot the lights out over the table. That has a way of stopping play until another light can be located. And w/o a light trying to find another light is often diffcult. All I can say is if ya hang out with me there's never a dull moment.

Comedy in the Park
What do you get when a bunch of comedians are doing their job and the Blue Angels fly over? Fly boys that respond to dick jokes. Just like vigra they were up there. It worked out great one crowd two events, just think of the fuel I saved, while watching them burn all that fuel. I tried putting in the link for the comedy but if it doesn't work it's www.comedyday .com here you'll see the list of performers. I was sitting in one of those very small lawn chairs, well really it wasn't small it was low to the ground. Getting into it was a trick in itself, I had do to the limbo rock just to get positioned to hopefully land my butt in it. The first two tries failed. I tipped over once, the second time I did a backwards flip. I was trying to be quite and just sit down but the people around me began to get hysterical and then I couldn't concentrate. Then my friend goes over and gets one of the comedians to wave at me , just as I'm stuffing my face full of wheat thins and cheeze wiz. I took some pictures but I don't know if they came out, I didn't know the camera had a zoom button. I was going to get some icecream but I only had enough money to get home on and they were asking and getting $4.00 for a scoop of ice cream plus the line was longer than the line for the port-potties. The crowd was mostly the Glucosamine Generation, I remember when we used to ask each other if you got any smoke, now it's you got an extra glucosamine? It took us about three tries before we could leave the house, we wanted to be on the road and arrive before Noon. So the night before we had agreed on meeting at 10:15 so we could get going at 10:30. We got the truck loaded, then we go to leave but we had to go back in and get the keys. So I'll leave you with this thought, It's time for a joint safety meeting, we got a lot of things to hash out.

Maybe Fall/Winter/Spring/Summer
Just wait an hour and it'll be which ever season you prefer. Last night while going to work, it was cold and windy that lasted until about Noon today over at the flag post the wind has died down considerably from what it was very early this morning. I love this time of year for several reasons. I like it when the seasons change , the air seems so crisp and fresh. My favorite is being outside with the wildlife, the deer and the raccoons stroll by while I'm working in hopes that I've got something for them. I leave my goodies in the truck locked up . We have some large ravens and they remind me of Heckle and Jeckle the cartoon crows. One night a paper bag got out into the parking lot and this one raven hopped over on one foot sneaking up on it I suppose. I decided to take a break and watch the show. He gets up to the back of the bag and jab's at it, the bag moves, he hops back and waits. There is nothing in this bag but one can't be too cautious . After ten minutes of sneaking up and jabbing the bag repeatly he goes around to the front of the bag. His friend has been watching all of this commotion and now that it seems harmless joins him. You could almost hear their conversation, "I'm not sticking my head in there you stick your head in the bag. No, go ahead it's safe I'll be right here. Just hop on up and run in." These two ravens play with this bag for quite awhile, finally, the orignal raven gets up his nerve and gets in the bag. Now the fun really begins, he's acting like he can't get out! His buddy hops over and watches closely, "Are you alright?" The bag rattles, "I said , are you alright?" The raven now has the bag upright with him walking around so all you really see is a walking moving bag. Everytime his buddy would get close to him ,he'd hop making the bag move and his buddy would freak out. I guess he'd had enough fun so he flips the bag over and exist cawing loudly. Only thing I could make out was,"Gotcha".
My Friend Sent Me This Picture.

Trouble
Ok, yesterday my g/f tells me I can have any thing I want. My red flags go to half mast. I 'm thinking about it while I'm playing virtual pool. "anything, anything, ANYTHING". Then she leaves and goes and plays pool at the pool hall. anything, I say out loud. I get up and get ready and go out on the town .I go and have this wonderful seafood combination platter and white wine. Then I go walking around and ran into some friends , we party for a little while. Two hours before having to be at work I return home, mind you this is at 1 a.m. I sit down and I go to finish my pool game . IT'S NOT THERE! ok, I think ,I would only space out on the time and be late for work, ok. Now I did "NOT" do anything mind you. and the chance was there but I was a good girl. phttt.. This morning I return home from work and guess what is back in the PC. Do you think I should not trip on this at all, inquire about it, or laugh it off ? It bothers me that she wasn't home at least by 2:45 when I left for work, but then I'd be giving it away that I knew she came back from pool and took my game somewhere w/o first asking . any comments or suggestions?

I wonder what it would be like to behave like this?
Wouldn't it be fun to go on vacation with a bunch of friends and behave like these girls! This is a real postcard from 1950'ish. I can't imagine wearing that much clothing. I wonder if they used coppertone? I think I need more coffee, or I mixed to many different types of drinks last night . Let's see I started with Wild Turkey with honey, umhmmm, then I was having a cranberry with Skyye, next was a double shot of Peach snophs,chased by a smurfoff Ice. Then to end the night came the drink that the bartender puts a flame to. I'm suprised I'm not in a comma some place. Somewhere in there was a shot of Catus juice. You know if I can remember all of that I wonder who it was under the table, well it certainly wasn't me!!! I'm hunger now I have this overwhelming desire for surf and truff, whatever that might be.... I wonder , oh gawd help me!! I wonder what ya get when you mix gator with python? Some silly python ate an alligator. Check it out over at the Miami Herald. I'll just be more carefull the next time I say "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse" which I wouldn't but whatever. Ok shut up Skye!!!
Due to the fact!!!
Because I canot figure anything out this is the best I can do at this time.Do you know that the cap to an advil bottle works great for holding a picture!!! This was awhile back, but I find it's the only picture that I don't mind sharing with others. So this is me Skyeblue2u, not that anyone really cares but whatever.
I just like this picture, I've forgoten where I was at this moment but anyway, I thought I'd post it. I do my best thinking when I'm either in the shower or behind a sterring wheel. The good news for today is we didn't lose last night nor did we win!!! 8-8 so everybody's averages stay the same which is good.

Ph.D.
Oh I now have a new tittle, I wonder if I can put it on my resume and get a job at the white house? With all the things I've done in life I could be rolling in the dough and laughing at all the fools like our gov't does. Well, my new tittle is a Ph.D stands for Push Here Dummie!!!
Bummer!
My friend just called to tell me some sad news, first she wanted to know if I was sitting down? Yeah, I'm ready I said,"Well you know with all the encores she(Dolly) did, "ye ah"(I already know what she's about to tell me) yeah go ahead. Well , I hear a sniffle, I forgot to open the camera lens. "It's ok, I say, at least we know we saw her and how close we were and that she said "Hello" to us. If we'd been any closer to her bus door we might have gotten invited in , yeah I can keep dreaming I know. So tonight my pool games are deciated to Miss Dolly cause I was just reading over at Dollymania how lucky we were she had to cancel some shows due to a sore throat. She's in Santa Rosa tonight if I had a car I'd skip pool and go up there it's only across the bridge. I certainly need a good luck charm tonight will all of ya please send me some Good Good Vibrations.

Oh What A Night!
This past weekend was so much "FUN", it's been too long since I can recall having that much fun! It began on Thrusday night and ended Sunday night. Thrusday , I drove my friend down to Redwood City for a cold read for a commerical, then Sat. we went to the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival. The whole area was full of people there must have been well over 100,000 folks there in Golden Gate Park at Speedway Meadows. If Hardly Stricly Bluegrass comes to your neck of the woods I highly recommend it. One it's free, free, Free! Two you run into people you haven't seem in years and if you pack a lunch and your beer and something to sit on all you got to do is enjoy. Then on Sunday we went to the Castro Street Fair. Later we headed back to the Bluegrass and guess what ... I got to see Dolly Parton up close and personal, I mean like she looked me in the eyes when I said Hello. I am going on a diet tomorrow, that Lady is so beautiful it has totally inspired me to get serious about my weight. When I left there I was happier than a tick in a dog's ear! If I should die tonight then ok, cause I finally got to see Dolly Parton. The crowd went wild when she opened her set with "Working 9-5" , she has a fantastic sense of humour, there were some techinal problems but she's such a trooper that she just restarted and breezed right on through it. I was having so much fun that I didn't even notice that some how I had ran into a tree branch and gashed my forehead just above my left eye. I began to notice it later when the head ache began to pound. Today I have this goose egg on my left side of my head. Oh what a night!
