Ok I have no guest book update for today
I know
Well I'll just have to find some other starting off point for the whole thing
This is kinda like that thing english teachers make you do in class
Ok class here is a blank sheet of paper and a pencil
now write
Write about what
What ever you want to write about --
you know the thing you think when they tell you to write about the importance of some poem like william carlos williams "so much depends on a little red wagon" -- you think oh man I wish I could write about something I wanted to write about
Well like the saying goes be careful what you wish for your wish may be granted
So you sit there and stare at the blank sheet of paper and you can hear the crickets in your head going chirp chirp or are they peep frogs
anyway the point is that you can't think of a single thing to write about
CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP
(U2 in the back ground "elevation")
ok I lost my html cheat sheet so the soapland thing will have to wait
darn
The art intern was around yesterday -- she made it a point to stop working and talk to me for a minute which was nice
today she showed up and something was different about her
I think she changed her hair -- what ever it was she looked really nice
It might have just been that she was on one of the walkways above the atrium and I was looking up at her through the sun shining in across the wide open space and she was gliding more than walking across the bridge light mixing with shadow around her as she moved lightly as if she were flying Her damp golden hair moving lightly with each step spinning up off her shoulders and gently falling back in place only to lifted again in the next stride. Then she was gone vanished like a wisp of smoke dancing only now in my memory. Her perfume sinking in the air a desending cascade to linger only slightly longer than she leaving all in the wake still within their hearts
Ok I need to snap out of this
(SLAP) thanks I needed that
So I have to find my html cheats and do something about this soapland thing which won't be tomorrow because we have a training session tomorrow with the Board of Directors -- I think mainly it will be them saying oh by the way you all are screwing up and need to raise more money -- produce or heads will roll Clear
Crystal
so now I must go because I hear the crickets again
and I really don't like the crickets

Not exactly knight in shining armour stuff
Well the training was not as bad as all that and no heads were taken.
Yes, that is terrible I was hoping for some action in that department -- there is one person here I wouldn't mind seeing wheeled to the window and toppled out -- Where is Dr. Lecter when you need him?
Well again there is no guest book update
tis true there is much sadness, wailing, and gnashing of teeth -- bleak days have been had by all in my invisible world
Well there were at least several drop ins to the diary even though no on signed in
I even got a google search -- Im thrilled I think -- hmmm - yup thrilled
the intern locked herself out of her office today -- well what are you going to do -- well me -- I broke into it for her -- not exactly knight in shining armour stuff but at least Im nice -- I mean I could have let her stand around in the halls -- and I always wondered if my wayward skills would ever have any legit purpose -- so everybody wins
Hark What Ho -- OH NO the radio has been changed to a country music station -- losing strength -- must act quickly before I fall into its coma -- ah there Dave Mathews Band -- mind becoming more alert -- strength returning -- WHEW -- thought I was a goner for a sec
OH AH the pres. just waved at me -- thats right I'm the bomb -- hmm I wonder if that last sentence will attract the secret service to the site ???? -- I let you know if guys in suits start coming around the office wearing dark sunglasses and asking why I don't like the "W"

Ok guest book game
last night I was watching six feet under and Nate and Brenda got caught doing the 69 without the nine or the 6 -- whichever -- but brenda was definately finding out that it is better to receive than to give
the game part have you ever been caught in a pseudo sexual or outright sexual encounter or walked in on a similar situation.
here in the museum I walked up on a couple that was so inspired by the art work that they just couldn't wait to show their appriciation for the work -- so into the stairs they went and up went her skirt and well lets say the guy was not identifable by mug shots but he wasn't losing any hair on the back of his head -- Well I say "ah you know this isn't really the place for that" Well they decided that their lives were for the moment enriched enough by the whole arts and culture experience. We also have numerous accounts of people unable to resist each other at our annual black tie affair -- we usually just find the evidence -- no not that -- get your mind out of the gutter -- Im talking about undergarments that they are unable to figure out how to put back on in a hurry so they are abandoned -- last year I was walking around doing the mingle suffle - you know -- you are at the party but you aren't at the party because you are working thing -- so Im walking down the main stairs through the atrium and the guy in front of me turns around and says " my date isn't wearing underware"
What the hell do you say back to something like that
Shock -- Oh MY
Disbelief -- NO
Curious -- Can I see
Rude -- I know (then smile)
Grateful, yet ungratefull -- Thats nice (chagrin)
I choose to say "does she know you tell people" Which she heard and said "tell people what?" Im not sure what that would fall under but she did hit him on the arm
Well thats about it for this one -- and its Thursday Friday for me no work again until monday -- after tonight that is my summer class starts tonight. I don't know if I should keep them the whole time or not -- Everyone have a good weekend I will be drinking Guinness again -- I got more hate mail from the family --but thats another issue that I'll write about later -- right now Im just going to drink for a solution rather than think about one -- of course I won't find it that way but it doesn't hurt to try

Oh bloody hell I've completely forgotten what the hell I was talking about
Well the weekend was uneventful --
I know it was sad --
Not that I had really large plans for the weekend
anyway but there it is a large nothing
nothing accomplished
nothing nothing nothing
Well not nothing but very nearly as much of nothing as someone could accomplish as possible
Guest book stuff
Thanks to yankee belle for playing the whats the strangest job you ever had. (My games must not be any fun anymore because I only get one or two people to play them -- I ll have to think about that one for a bit)
A frogs life -- Josh -- thanks for signing in -- i went to your site and I will be back to check it out in more detail
Magistrate -- thanks for the god reference, its nice to be placed in the company of such great ones like Thor, Loki, Zeus, Mars, Athena, -- Hey I wonder if Venus is busy this saturday - but in all seriousness thanks for signing in
and Ozz finally added me to her fave list *grin*
I wonder if I look like the cheshire cat when I smile -- would you really see my teeth or are they invisible too -- hmmm I'll have to check the mirror at somepoint
Ok Well other than a whole lot of nothing this weekend I did get around to watching Castaway -- WoW that was something --
I think I would have liked to have seen the plane crash on the big screen, in the dark, with the dolby surround THX sound -- that would have been awesome
do you ever notice that all the really interesting words especially adjectives like "awesome" have been bastardized by our lingoistically ineffectial society --
What I mean here is, and I am guilty too, is that no one bothers to expand their vocabulary they just adopt words to mean something else and then to mean something else too and then another thing -- until it is just stupefing how many things a single word means.
Then if you want to use a word like awesome -- you just don't want to use it any more because it is now somehow less significant due to our own malediction toward stupidity --
anyway I didn't mean to get off on a rant there(thanks dennis for the line gotta give the gorilla his props)
Oh and completely unrelated to anything thus far today I think I have the perfect thing for soapland -- oh hell I'll html the the thing later --
the point is I think I have what Chicken pie was saying and I'll link it tomorrow after I get the thing worked out in my head -- which might take longer than you would imagine
So now what
WILSON *weeping* WILSON I'M SORRY -- WILSON
man is tom hanks an actor to beat all actors -- who else really could have made you believe that he was grief stricken over a volley ball -- who -- I think not a single actor alive today could have pulled off such a thing -- It was moving (not the volley ball) the performance I was truly moved by the display of emotion Bravo Mr. Hanks Bravo
Ok so now Im off my soapbox -- which is entirely unrelated to soapland
Now on to something really important
Well not so much as really important
but more in line with sort of important
which is to say more significant than marginally important but less so than of some importance
oh bloody hell I've completely forgotten what the hell I was talking about
so I suppose all that is left to do is to congratulate yankeebelle on her three dates
(singing)
HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY
HAPPY HAPPY JOY
HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY
HAPPY HAPPY JOY
(end singing)
whew -- well Im off to do some work I hope the previous jumble didn't cause you too much pain -- but just imagine how hard it is for me to do anything with a mind that works that way
I know it was sad --
Not that I had really large plans for the weekend
anyway but there it is a large nothing
nothing accomplished
nothing nothing nothing
Well not nothing but very nearly as much of nothing as someone could accomplish as possible

A bit on the close side but hey you don't need the room to move around
Well its friday for me again (happy dance) thursday for the rest of you -- sorry
although it is a sad & happy thing
Why? you ask
Because the summer term starts next week and it is the last weekend that I won't be working a lot of extra hours
My class only meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays but it makes for really long days working
Guestbook stuff
Thanks to
The book girl for signing in and giving the feed back to my remarks -- you should check out Col. Chebert (movie) it is really good
Man yesterdays entry was a bit long sorry about that if you read all the way to the bottom.
Have you watched that new thing on HBO "six feet under"
Is that a cool show
I worked one summer in a funeral home -- it is kinda odd watching the show and seeing the things that they put in that actually happen in those places
one thing was sleeping in a coffin --
I did that --
In case you never get the opportunity to climb in one while you can still climb back out -- they are really plush - a bit on the close side but hey you don't need the room to move around
picking up -- man that is creepy the first few times
driving around with someone with you that isn't with you.
Especially if you hear the body shift -- you are just sure that the person is going to sit up and start talking to you or killing you or something like that from the horror movies
I never worked on the people -- you can't do it if you aren't qualified -- school and license -- I don't know if I could do that
the oddest thing I did there was one day we had just a burial no service -- the family lived away from the area I lived in and the family member who had passed wanted to be buried where she grew up -- so the service was elsewhere and then we picked up and then did a burial --
Well when we get to the site -- we dont have any tools to close the vault -- this one was a wooden vault which had to have the lid screwed down -- well after we lowered the coffin and then the lid -- I had to jump down in the grave and screw on the lid -- Im not sure why I got picked for that -- I think I was the only one willing to do it -- well I had to use dimes and pennies to screw on the lid because we forgot the tool box -- I dropped several of them something like 20 or 30 cent
Anyway that was probably the oddest thing that happened
The strangest job I had was pin setter in a bowling alley -- before they had the machines to do it -- well they had machines I just lived in BFE and they didn't have them yet --
so there were 5 to 8 kids in the back that sat up on this wall
mainly in the dark and waited for the ball to be thrown down the lane
then you jump down in the pit
lower the frame to grab the standing pins
raise the frame to pull any pins out of the way that had fallen but not into the pit lower the frame release the remaining pins and return the ball get back on the wall
then after the second ball jump down reset all the pins and return the ball
Of course there would always be some jag off that would roll another ball down the lane while you were down off the wall -- one kid got hit by the ball and it broke his arm -- I never got hurt but I did get a few balls rolled down at me
All in all that was a really fun job and how many people can say they were a pin setter
Ok here is the new game for the guest book -- what is the strangest job you have ever held.
Well I hope everyone has a great weekend -- I really should get online at home then I could do daily updates
although it is a sad & happy thing
Why? you ask

You're nice looking but you aren't that bright are you
OK my head is about to explode because I've been crunching the numbers for my department and trying to make this budget work
OK first Guestbook stuff
-Dani -- it is there -- have a good summer-- and not problem I have only read a little bit of your stuff
-kittykatne -- its never to late to play any of the games I put up on here --glad you had a good weekend and a good night out with your "hubby" and yes you get an A for effort.
OH and I added a notify list -- this is for the many of you who are coming by and checking things out but aren't ready to sign the guestbook or add me to your fave list
See just because I'm invisible doesn't mean I'm not trying to meet your needs for reading enjoyment
Which reminds me hopefully we are working out the bugs on a fun little thing which we call SOAPLAND We really hope this works
OK back to where I started with my headache.
Thanks to some losses in funding -- which is a whole other thing with the Governor and the state budget and fundraising
Yes because of what other people have done, I'm redoing a budget that I did back in February
make it smaller the accounting department says
OK (I quickly change of the font size and hit print)
"There you go, its smaller." I say
Well as you may have guessed-- the accountants weren't amused -- not even the slightest bit.
I thought it was extremely funny and laughed a little bit out loud until they looked over their glasses at me. Well there you go try to make someone smile it does no good if they don't want to have a good time.
Anyway
I think I got the whole thing worked out -- they the accountants a.k.a. You're not funny invisible don are looking at it now
Oh and no they don't call me invisible don
They call me, "you are not funny" and "the guy in the office" or "Hey you can you come lift this thing 'cause its heavy thanks"
OK, so I promised yankeebelle a story about my college law professor
My grad school college law professor lets call her P
She was the Asst. Prosecuting Atty. for the jurisdiction in which the college is located and she was chair of the department and everyone was afraid of her. Even the campus police (real police not security) Captain would bring an armed escort anytime he had to meet with her (seriously) with order to shoot her if she killed him.
So anyway my friend M who is now a lawyer and I have her in Constitutional Law and we are both GA/TA (graduate assistants and teaching assistants) which means the teachers see you a lot more and thus expect more out of you especially if they "know" you are smart (M) or think you are smart (me).
Anyway
We had a semester paper due for her and a final exam all coming up in the next few weeks
Well I'm stressing over the class and the paper and so is M well I have this dream before the class on day The professor P is in her office
I'm in my GA/TA office
She yells for me to do something
So I do it
Then I have to use the restroom (in the dream)
well I get there and in walks the professor P while I'm busy standing there
I look back and She flips me off and says you're going to fail this class because I know what you're up to ass*&%^*&
Well I wake up and I'm freakin' out -- I don't even want to go to class -- I know it doesn't seem that bad but you don't know this lady
Well in reality all the staff thought M and I were having a thing behind her husbands back -- he even thought so too at some point. This was not true of course but there was this one time I guess things could have but I may have missed the hint. That is a whole other story and long after grad school. However the point is once a rumor or something like that gets going its hard to stop.
The missing of the hints is a problem that still plagues me.
A topic for another issue is my bad reputation my friend Jon says -- it would cost a fortune to pay for the advertising to come up with your reputation, It hasn't cost me a cent yet, but I have had a gun waived in my face more than once
OK back to me not getting the hint
I'm really bad at picking up on flirting -- well the dental assistants are really blunt about it -- otherwise I just miss these things
Here is an example
When I was 17 I had a summer job at a state park as a waiter. One day during lunch a few ladies were in for lunch. Nothing out of the ordinary happened during the meal and the conversation between myself and them was the normal what is there to do around here sort of thing yadda yadda yadda. Well at the end of their meal I brought out the bills, separate checks for each person well with the one ladies check and money was a room key
Well I go running after her "here you forgot this"
She turned and looked at me waited and then she smiled and said as she took the key back "you're nice looking but you aren't that bright are you."
I didn't get it until she was walking away
So I miss many little hints about stuff like that I think it has something to do with being cloistered away in the seminary and then again being in the seminary that is usually the last thing you are thinking about most of the time
Well gotta go I don't think this entry makes a whole lot of sense
OK first Guestbook stuff
-Dani -- it is there -- have a good summer-- and not problem I have only read a little bit of your stuff
-kittykatne -- its never to late to play any of the games I put up on here --glad you had a good weekend and a good night out with your "hubby" and yes you get an A for effort.

We had a semester paper due for her and a final exam all coming up in the next few weeks
Well I'm stressing over the class and the paper and so is M well I have this dream before the class on day The professor P is in her office
I'm in my GA/TA office
She yells for me to do something
So I do it
Then I have to use the restroom (in the dream)
well I get there and in walks the professor P while I'm busy standing there
I look back and She flips me off and says you're going to fail this class because I know what you're up to ass*&%^*&
Well I wake up and I'm freakin' out -- I don't even want to go to class -- I know it doesn't seem that bad but you don't know this lady
Well in reality all the staff thought M and I were having a thing behind her husbands back -- he even thought so too at some point. This was not true of course but there was this one time I guess things could have but I may have missed the hint. That is a whole other story and long after grad school. However the point is once a rumor or something like that gets going its hard to stop.
The missing of the hints is a problem that still plagues me.
A topic for another issue is my bad reputation my friend Jon says -- it would cost a fortune to pay for the advertising to come up with your reputation, It hasn't cost me a cent yet, but I have had a gun waived in my face more than once
OK back to me not getting the hint
I'm really bad at picking up on flirting -- well the dental assistants are really blunt about it -- otherwise I just miss these things
Here is an example
When I was 17 I had a summer job at a state park as a waiter. One day during lunch a few ladies were in for lunch. Nothing out of the ordinary happened during the meal and the conversation between myself and them was the normal what is there to do around here sort of thing yadda yadda yadda. Well at the end of their meal I brought out the bills, separate checks for each person well with the one ladies check and money was a room key
Well I go running after her "here you forgot this"
She turned and looked at me waited and then she smiled and said as she took the key back "you're nice looking but you aren't that bright are you."
I didn't get it until she was walking away
So I miss many little hints about stuff like that I think it has something to do with being cloistered away in the seminary and then again being in the seminary that is usually the last thing you are thinking about most of the time
Well gotta go I don't think this entry makes a whole lot of sense

That or they are the best transvestites I've ever seen
OK now that I'm at my desk and I'm looking at two things
D-land and the pile of stuff I need to do
hmmmmmmmmm
What to do, what to do?
Well as you can see I already decided what to do but it was fun to relive that little bit of my mental tug-of-war.
OK guestbook update
-Yankeebelle -- Thanks for the support in my shameless self promotion -- you must have been the only one who read that far or you were the only one with a weekend good enough to write about.
-Invisible ink -- Hey, no problem about the bird -- it is as much a part of the English language as the thumbs up and OK sign and other gestures, and it just allows you to express your self quickly and not every one has to hear you yell PHUCK
-Chickenpie -- OK my schedule is free this Thursday from 13:00 to 14:30 hmmmm that would be alot earlier for you -- I'll get a memo together on that soap thing and forward it around the office -- let me know if I need to beat the mail boy
Oh on the topic of mail boys -- well not mail boys but interns and not boys either -- that or they are the best transvestites I've ever seen --
anyway
There are two summer interns
The theatre has one
Art has the other
I'm going to make a typical male comment (BEWARE)
Well the one in art is much more attractive,
(OK there it was -- Sorry I had to say it somewhere there aren't any guys in the office except the president and I don't see me talking about the interns with him ... no not that president)
Anyway the art intern doesn't speak to anyone -- which is odd because usually interns don't shut up
Well today I was outside on the farmer's market which by the way is just outside the museum.
I was outside smoking --yes that nasty disgusting habit of mine -- so anyway the art intern is walking into work from somewhere and she is fiddling with the flowers set up for sale.
As she is walking by she is brushing her hand across the blooms which I think is OK but I don't run the flower stands and I am actually thinking that if she were in a field of wild flowers that this would make a really nice picture.
Anywhoo she looks over at me and says "HI" and she blushes a bit and a light breeze ruffles her honey coloured hair off her shoulders she blushed because she was caught doing something that she thought that no one else would notice
I say "HI" in reply
Well then she stops and asks how I am "how are you?" she says
"well and yourself" I say
Shes says "I'm doing well too, they (turning her head back to the flowers) are really quite beautiful aren't they"
"Yes I like them too" I say
"Well I have to get to work, see you later" she smiles and turns to walk away her skirt twirling up a bit as she turns and it floats back into the swing sway motion as she walks away into the museum.
"OK see ya" I say
Well I have no clue why I wrote all that
D-land and the pile of stuff I need to do
hmmmmmmmmm
What to do, what to do?
Well as you can see I already decided what to do but it was fun to relive that little bit of my mental tug-of-war.

I mean I've been in AAA for 10 years and I think I had one tow in all that time

"What women want" -- This was good I liked it,
"Pay it forward" -- oh man does the ending suck or what -- I couldn't believe it -- I was like oh my god why did they do that that just sucks -- oh and yes I did cry -- a little -- see Im not heartless and cold and uncaring.
Ok so now off to Camelot

It does kinda grab you and slap you in the face
Ok I just goofed this up I went to check something else where and *poof* entry gone
oh well we live and learn
So time to try to recreate what was going on before
Well Im playing around a bit on the pages
now that I am learning how to play around a bit
However Im just not sure what to do yet
So Im all over looking for something that says me me me
but I haven't found it yet
so I settled for a few things that I know
the images pics whatever on here are from a playstation game "vagrant story" which I like and am currently playing -- well I'm typing right now not playing but you get the gist
I know these pics exist cause I like to get hints on games I play
ok
so anyway I was looking for this cool tattoo design they have in the game but I can't find it on the site but I get two pics i know are there from the site and upload them and put them on here one on this page the other is on the older page --well actually both are on the older page come to think of it
anyway thats what thats all about
ok
thanks to valentina for signing the guestbook
here is another dino story
The new Dinosaur exhibit opens this saturday
so the set up crew is really pushing to get things done TV crew is coming today -- sometime before the 6 deadline --which sometimes they miss and they do a live feed thats fun
So
The whole thing looks like a zoo (sound like Jurassic Park?--- unfortunately the museum isn't that smart they got lucky with the planning)
so anyway
They have this zoo thing set up to allow visitors to walk around like the dinos are real and you are walking around with them
now here is the really good bit (wait for it)
SMELL
-- thats right they are adding stuff to the exhibit to make it smell like a zoo -- Hay, corn dust, and some othter stuff too -- well to allow you the aromatic pleasure that I have enjoyed all day -- go to a stable -- got that smell in your head -- bingo thats what it smells like 20 feet from my office
I moved out of BFE because of that smell
--well that and
rednecks
and being shoot at by rednecks
and the parents
well the point is
The zoo/barn smell is not supposed to be in the building but it is supposed to be in the zoo and or barn not the museum and not 20 feet from my office
So that is what I've been smelling all day
sure it could be worse but when you don't expect something it does kinda grab you and slap you in the face a bit and then smiles and says
How'd you like that?
not very much thank you
so I have to do some work now so I'll be running along now to be alone with the dinos and the barn smell
oh well we live and learn
So time to try to recreate what was going on before
Well Im playing around a bit on the pages

The further adventures of Invisible Don King of the Bastards
What to write about today?
what to say hmmmmmmmm
well first
Thanks to Isabel for signing my guest book -- I know I usually wait for someone else to go in or out at auto doors but you can get pinched in them if you don't hurry
I just love getting stuff in my guest book --its like getting a new present or at least to me so that's all that matters anyway
I'm in a funny mood today I think today is worse for being back to work because the grind has actually started back up
Yesterday wasn't so bad --everyone was like oh how was your trip -- did you have a good time -- what did you do
and here I got to relive part of it by telling everyone about it so it was really like another day of vacation
But now I'm back at work *sigh*
the desk is the same --minus the dust well most of the dust
I also noticed that there is a snoop in the office because several of my files were out of order --see it pays to be anal about some things but I don't know who or did it and the s(()*^(*)%*&%)
well enough of that -- there is a herd of dinosaurs outside my office now well not just out side but rather near there
The T-REX is supposed to do something but they haven't turned it on yet --most likely it will be a very annoying noise -- the new exhibits are cool when they first get here but after a few weeks you just don't care for most of it.
some examples
we had an exhibit on microbes --part of one the exhibits was a video tape which played a loop and no matter when I walked by the thing it was on the part that said "it came from dirt"
well hows that for an ego boost
Then there was the Tar Pit exhibit -- which had a north American giant sloth and saber tooth cat robots the cat was attacking the the sloth -- every couple of minutes ROAR ARRGGHGAH ROAR ARRGGHAH-- it is mind numbing after awhile
the Tar Pit one was cool because I actually got to hold a real saber tooth cat skull -- let me tell you, you don't want to run into one of these kitty kats -- the saber teeth fangs are huge --good thing they are all dead -- well maybe not they would make hunting a bit more sporting
Sure you can go kill the dear but you just might be stalked while you're out there
That reminds me of the clip for the "when animals attack" thing that was on FOX -- if you saw this most of the time it wasn't the animals fault --some "DUMBASS" is out there in the woods and wants to be the Croc hunter or Jim from wild kingdom
I fully support the Darwin Awards -- the gene pool has to be thinned out some how and why not give the yo yos some credit on their way out
It's like the joke
Q: what's the last thing a redneck says
A: Hey you all watch me do this
*****************************************************
Warning sudden mood change dead ahead
Enter at your own risk
if you Read on don't hold this against me this is years of rage boiling to the surface
*****************************************************
Well my train of thought just got side tracked like hell -- My mother called and is acting like nothing is wrong between us and that she didn't say I was a worthless fucking piece of shit only out for my own interest in life just a few months ago but that wasn't' the first time those words have exited her lips in a comment toward me
f(*^)*&) that is just what I need for an in between kind of day anyway
I really feel like having a swearing fest right about now I could just write F&*% over and over again and pound them all out on the keys
Why is it that parents presume that once they decide enough time has past that everything has a specific statute of limitations on their children to be upset or angry. Its like to them that our feeling have a fucking expiration date stamped on them
-- however you cross them line with them once it will be forever and always a topic of how you are not a good son -- a royal fuck up -- a SOB -- or that new title that I have been dubbed by my brother the peacemaker "King of the Bastards"
Example I'm 17 I take the family car and I'm out all night I go to a friends house park and I am inside all night not driving -- well their view on this is that I am so F'n lucky we didn't call the cops on you, you dumb SOB and I am still considered to be a car thief -- for example anytime the car keys to any vehicle end up missing or misplaced while I'm visiting it is what did you do with the keys --no oh have you seen the keys I could just walk in the door and have just been driving my own POS thank you very much and it is my fault that the keys are gone from a house I haven't been in for the last six months until this very minute.
Well not to mention that my father tells my bother "the other one" that he is not going to repay a loan he has out that I had co-sign on just to fuck me "
now that is me quoting him -- so he defaults I get to have the big money sucking IV jabbed into my arm
You know I'm such an insensitive uncaring fuck that I signed that loan so they could keep their business on which they owed this giant amount of back taxes on --which I'm sure is my fault I just don't know it yet
Oh and I'm the fucking ungrateful son for asking my father to explain why he was going around asking people "where the Fuck I was at my grandmothers funeral when I was right behind him sitting with his sister and his mother thank you very much --why don't you ask them
and my mother blaming me because she and her mother had a shitty relationship --
oh OK I'm not the one that lived next door to the woman and never walked across the yard to visit for six months at a time
Oh and it is a cop out because I move the hell away from the freakin' styx in BFE WV to find a job somewhere and I can't come up and visit every weekend or another time I have off -- If the freakin' peacemaker didn't work for you, you wouldn't see him either lets see how often did he come off the hill he lives on to visit you or grandma --hmmmmmmmm none that is a real easy answer
but I'm the king of the bastards I'm the SOB I'm the worthless son
But I can wait for hell to freeze over before I get an apology from them Dad's exact words
You know you can only tell some one they are worthless so long before they no longer want to have anything to do with you.
Well I was beginning to wonder where my feelings were on all of this and now I know --
so I don't have a decent family back ground so what
-- I like me and as far as they go well they are there and I am here and I like it that way
Just don't call me anymore and I won't be calling you --
I think it would be good if they just forgot that I'm around it should be easy for them as much anger as I seem to cause them you would think they would be glad to be rid of me-- but I guess they still need to have some kind of whipping boy around
well I'm out of here and hopefully I will be in a better mood tomorrow
I wonder can you legally stop your parents from referring to you as a relative and bothering you?
what to say hmmmmmmmm
well first
Thanks to Isabel for signing my guest book -- I know I usually wait for someone else to go in or out at auto doors but you can get pinched in them if you don't hurry
I just love getting stuff in my guest book --its like getting a new present or at least to me so that's all that matters anyway
I'm in a funny mood today I think today is worse for being back to work because the grind has actually started back up
Yesterday wasn't so bad --everyone was like oh how was your trip -- did you have a good time -- what did you do
and here I got to relive part of it by telling everyone about it so it was really like another day of vacation
But now I'm back at work *sigh*
the desk is the same --minus the dust well most of the dust
I also noticed that there is a snoop in the office because several of my files were out of order --see it pays to be anal about some things but I don't know who or did it and the s(()*^(*)%*&%)
well enough of that -- there is a herd of dinosaurs outside my office now well not just out side but rather near there
The T-REX is supposed to do something but they haven't turned it on yet --most likely it will be a very annoying noise -- the new exhibits are cool when they first get here but after a few weeks you just don't care for most of it.
some examples
we had an exhibit on microbes --part of one the exhibits was a video tape which played a loop and no matter when I walked by the thing it was on the part that said "it came from dirt"
well hows that for an ego boost
Then there was the Tar Pit exhibit -- which had a north American giant sloth and saber tooth cat robots the cat was attacking the the sloth -- every couple of minutes ROAR ARRGGHGAH ROAR ARRGGHAH-- it is mind numbing after awhile
the Tar Pit one was cool because I actually got to hold a real saber tooth cat skull -- let me tell you, you don't want to run into one of these kitty kats -- the saber teeth fangs are huge --good thing they are all dead -- well maybe not they would make hunting a bit more sporting
Sure you can go kill the dear but you just might be stalked while you're out there
That reminds me of the clip for the "when animals attack" thing that was on FOX -- if you saw this most of the time it wasn't the animals fault --some "DUMBASS" is out there in the woods and wants to be the Croc hunter or Jim from wild kingdom
I fully support the Darwin Awards -- the gene pool has to be thinned out some how and why not give the yo yos some credit on their way out
It's like the joke
Q: what's the last thing a redneck says
A: Hey you all watch me do this
*****************************************************
Warning sudden mood change dead ahead
Enter at your own risk
if you Read on don't hold this against me this is years of rage boiling to the surface
*****************************************************
Well my train of thought just got side tracked like hell -- My mother called and is acting like nothing is wrong between us and that she didn't say I was a worthless fucking piece of shit only out for my own interest in life just a few months ago but that wasn't' the first time those words have exited her lips in a comment toward me
f(*^)*&) that is just what I need for an in between kind of day anyway
I really feel like having a swearing fest right about now I could just write F&*% over and over again and pound them all out on the keys
Why is it that parents presume that once they decide enough time has past that everything has a specific statute of limitations on their children to be upset or angry. Its like to them that our feeling have a fucking expiration date stamped on them
-- however you cross them line with them once it will be forever and always a topic of how you are not a good son -- a royal fuck up -- a SOB -- or that new title that I have been dubbed by my brother the peacemaker "King of the Bastards"
Example I'm 17 I take the family car and I'm out all night I go to a friends house park and I am inside all night not driving -- well their view on this is that I am so F'n lucky we didn't call the cops on you, you dumb SOB and I am still considered to be a car thief -- for example anytime the car keys to any vehicle end up missing or misplaced while I'm visiting it is what did you do with the keys --no oh have you seen the keys I could just walk in the door and have just been driving my own POS thank you very much and it is my fault that the keys are gone from a house I haven't been in for the last six months until this very minute.
Well not to mention that my father tells my bother "the other one" that he is not going to repay a loan he has out that I had co-sign on just to fuck me "
now that is me quoting him -- so he defaults I get to have the big money sucking IV jabbed into my arm
You know I'm such an insensitive uncaring fuck that I signed that loan so they could keep their business on which they owed this giant amount of back taxes on --which I'm sure is my fault I just don't know it yet
Oh and I'm the fucking ungrateful son for asking my father to explain why he was going around asking people "where the Fuck I was at my grandmothers funeral when I was right behind him sitting with his sister and his mother thank you very much --why don't you ask them
and my mother blaming me because she and her mother had a shitty relationship --
oh OK I'm not the one that lived next door to the woman and never walked across the yard to visit for six months at a time
Oh and it is a cop out because I move the hell away from the freakin' styx in BFE WV to find a job somewhere and I can't come up and visit every weekend or another time I have off -- If the freakin' peacemaker didn't work for you, you wouldn't see him either lets see how often did he come off the hill he lives on to visit you or grandma --hmmmmmmmm none that is a real easy answer
but I'm the king of the bastards I'm the SOB I'm the worthless son
But I can wait for hell to freeze over before I get an apology from them Dad's exact words
You know you can only tell some one they are worthless so long before they no longer want to have anything to do with you.

I'm sure many of you linksters think skiing is moronic so we're even
I'm back from the beach trip
No sunburn -- woo hoo
No golfing -- oh hell ya -- sorry all you golfers its just the way I feel about the game -- I'm sure many of you linksters think snow skiing is moronic so we're even
Thanks to everyone who signed my guestbook
Chickenpie -- I m back thanks for missing me -- bring you guest book back please -- oh and the d-land soap it sounds like a cool plan we'll have to talk about that email me I have my people work on something --seriously
Yankeebelle -- thanks for the guest book love -- I wish I was there too -- maybe someday we'll have a Guinness in the same bar so until then Cheers
Heidi Fierce -- was it a cool pic on your arm
Jess -- Meow Meow Meow oh and Meow -- I'm not sure if I said that right but I hope I did
Invisiblepal-- the only one person who played the how should "doc" be killed off game which is OK because I didn't run into anyone who could do anything about it. Sorry I'll try harder
OK now for more details on the non golf beach trip
now that I have more time to 'splain
I did spend ten minutes one day talking to a guy who felt obligated to tell me about this other guy he knew of through someone else which was kin to this other guy whose Grandfather was in WWII and was able to bring back a complete Nazi SS officers uniform including the side arm and saber.
Well needless to say I would like to have those ten minutes of my life back. I was sucked into the conversation at an antiques shop which had Nazi items
which when seeing them I happened to comment that they were going to be much harder to get because of some of the recent changes in how these things can be sold
-- well make a comment and someone is bound to answer
even if it was not a question but simply oh by the way did you know this and besides I wasn't talking to you in the first place
but no
you get pulled into a story that you wish you could get away from
Anyway
The beach trip was fun I was the last one up every day -- woo hoo which is cool because I am usually the first person awake of the group
other things I did
Saw light houses
Rode on a ferry boat
play mini golf -- oh I know but its not the same
swam
tanned
eat
slept
built a sand castle
collected sea shells
The only bad part of the sleeping late thing was that the coffee was nearly gone by that time of the day but I suffered that minor burden without a gripe
I managed to resist the golfing taunts and not go -- ha take that you duffers -- one of the golf guys got all bummed out while we were on the trip and didn't talk to anyone from Wednesday on (WRFS) three and a half days.
Some of the other people were starting to feel sorry for him for being all bummed about his not having a good time but
I said "phuck 'em he just wants everyone to feel bad for him and no one have a good time because he isn't having a good time -- which was his fault anyway
maybe I wouldn't have made such a good priest -- cause once I said it everyone was like 'the priest' said phuck 'em
Well is it my fault that the 'dumbass' went golfing all day on his second wedding anniversary? and that when he got back his wife didn't want to talk to him?
Sorry if he didn't want to have a good time that's his problem not mine or the problem of anyone else there
Well after everyone rolled up their jaws from my burst of insensitivity they said you know that's right this is our vacation too just because he isn't having a good time doesn't mean we can't
So then we all enjoyed the last part of the vacation of course the silent one then lurked and sulked around the house the rest of the time which was a bit odd at times but I got over it quickly and I think everyone else did too
I did drink some most every day but I drank far too much that first day (previous entry) oh my god -- that was a horrible feeling it was like my head was cracked in half and someone was using it for a bongo.
Well I learned my lesson and I participated in the festivities the rest of the week in moderation. which was a much better plan than what i first had planned
Plan A -- drink a lot -- not a good plan
Plan B -- drink not a lot -- worked much better
Plus under plan B I was able to carry one conversations in understandable English rather then drunken English
whisch shounds shomething like dis am youb hash tube telb peoples hows musch youb really lub dem am youb hash to shay the thinks youb shay at leashed shree timebs before youb are shure theyb hash heard youb
well I wasn't nearly that bad but I know I repeated my self and I tried to explain things that were perfectly clear before I tried to explain them
Fortunately everyone I was talking to was doing the same thing -- I did wake up before everyone that day but it didn't matter because I was up to get pain medication and a big glass of water and then I promptly went back to bed and pulled a pillow over my head and slept until noon and still was out of bed before most everyone.
The rest of the week was at the beach sitting in the sun or shade mainly in my case and talking and moderate drinking
I recommend moderate drinking because
1 it costs a lot less
2 it hurts a lot less
3 it allows for less stupid comments
4 you don't wake up wondering if you did or said something stupid
5. you are less likely to have to say you are sorry for something later
I'm sure that there are many other reasons
Oh and I got some sun too -- well you can't really tell (the invisible thing) but trust me I got some sun and I actually look like I've been outside in the last century.
Hi Ho

Hi ho hi ho its off to work I good

Let me sum up
OK this will be short because I have to get my head back together for a few minutes and settle back into the desk & dust a bit
It's amazing how much dust will build up in a week.
The vacation was fun
I will do a more detailed account later but let me sum up now
Day 1 a whole lot of Guinness
Day 2 a whole lot of hang over -- man does the sun really suck at 0630 shinning in the windows when your head feels like it is going to spilt open -- man that was something I had really forgotten about --because I don't really drink that much and haven't had a hang over in a really long time
day 3 more Guinness no hang over
day 4 more Guinness no hang over
day 5 Old Grand Dad no hang over
day 6 Old Grand Dad & Guinness no hang over
day 7 Old Grand Dad no hang over
day 8 Old Grand Dad no hang over
day 9 no alcohol
day 10 no alcohol no hang over of course if you don't drink you don't have a hang over
Today work I think I want to go on vacation again
