Rock is running all over the house right now I'm thinking she may be losing her mind
Up the stairs
Down the stairs
Up the stairs
Down the stairs
Into the kitchen
Skid on the throw rug
Bam into the wall
Leaps up looks at the rug like I meant to surf across the floor on you and then bif it into the wall
Meanwhile -Mick Jagger is singing his ass off in one of those one line from every song ever written by the Rolling Stones so you will buy the Album TV ads.
Ever notice that none of the Rolling Stones best of records ever does a tag line from emotional rescue but that song is on all of them -something to think about.
In other news
VH1 programming is back on the best of the 80's
This is a wild ride down memory lane - I’m getting a tingle just thinking about how much fun the 80’s were for me - ok not so much sorry to lead you down that primrose path of my pseudo excitement
Will some one please choke the life out of Carrot Top so I don’t have to endure another one of his commercials?
Ok back to the 80’s
So right now I’m listening to all the things from the 80's and occasionally looking in at what’s on the TV
Was the fashion industry on crack in the 80’s?
If you had to pick the worst clothing from a decade I'm thinking the 80's
The main reason for this is that standard cool jeans and pullovers were in style and always have been
But people in the 80’s still choose to wear all the members only jackets, parachute pants, jackets with the zippers, the layered skirts and the best fashion thing of the 80’s
Big, big mall hair
Now that is fashion
I had three looks in the 80’s
Early 80’s Jeans and t-shirts mostly black
Mid 80’s Military B.D.U.’s (Camouflage means battle dress uniform aren’t you glad you know that now, ok maybe not so much)
Late 80’s Khakis and button ups growing my hair as long as possible - the last haircut I got in the 80’s was in November of 1988
So by March 1994 when I finally got all my hair chopped off I ended up cutting 20 inches off and my hair was still on my shoulders
Mostly I didn’t listen to very popular music in the 1980’s well a lot of it is popular now but at the time mostly people would say you listen to that crap - oh well now all those people are say hey do you know this or that really cool song - Ah yeah you said it was crap when it first came out
Which of course they deny - oh no I’ve always liked that group which you know isn’t true because they own it on CD and I still have most of it on vinyl and I have had to re-buy the music - don’t you hate that technology makes you have to buy things over again
It really adds meaning to the saying that there is nothing new under the sun - it’s just that the technology changes
So this has pretty much been going on since the 1400’s when the kids in the middle ages were playing video games on the parchment pulled over a stick frame
Well I’ve had enough of my trip down memory lane and I’m sure most of you have as well
Happy New Year and all that
Hope no one has a hangover that is too terrible
But if you do just this morning on the today show
This white bread chick said chicken broth is the best thing of a hangover - who knew
Well apparently this goody two shoes who looks like she hasn’t drank a bit in her life ever -
However you know the goody-goody girls are the ones that can drink you under the table on a Saturday night not get in until 5 am and then make to Sunday church service at 8am and look all sweet and innocent and most importantly sober on two hours of sleep - must be the chicken soup
Well anyway I’m out
Have a great day and play nice in the neighborhood
Remember to vote for me on the Top 100 diary land diaries below

Sunday Press Conference
OK it’s Sunday morning
Saturday night was distinctly different from Friday night
The kids are back here - which I like
Doodle had two of her friends spent the night last night
So I have four kids here this a.m.
Stunt boy had to get a cootie shot (circle, circle, dot, dot…)
Anyway
Sunday morning Press Conference
Location: Mi casa no su casa
Time: Noon- why because morning press conferences suck that’s why
Invisible don: Good morning I would like to say I am fully aware I am wearing my slippers so lets not have any comments about how much you like the fuzzy bunnies with the floppy ears - I know you do I like them too. Coffee and cigarettes are available on the side tables so fell free to help your self to either and smoke if you want - oh and the left side is the smoking section so if you need to move
Several people light up
Reporter 1: So you signed up for a review?
Invisible don: Yes actually I have signed up for several, but only one has ever gotten around to reviewing me- maybe there is something I’m not getting - I can be a little slow to catch on to a point
Reporter 1: Why seek out random validation from a stranger invisible don?
Invisible don: That is a very good question - too bad I really don’t have a very good answer - You know it was one of those parties where everyone has too much to drink and it really seemed like a good idea at the time - then the cops show up. Yes you in the back with the glasses
Reporter 2: Do you think that reviews aid diary writers?
Invisible don: Well possibly - but then again I think that diaries are expressions of individuality and if everyone conforms to some standard then there would be no need to read other diaries - but it’s all about having fun
Reporter 2: Why keep a diary?
Invisible don: I do this mainly for me - yes that may be a bit self centered but it also serves as a mind dump for me. The young lady in the front
Reporter 3: Was your review good?
Invisible don: No it sucked (sips coffee, drags off cigarette) but you know that’s all right you ask for a slap in the face you are most likely going to get one (blows smoke from last drag)
Reporter 3: Do you think reviewers really get a sense of the person behind the diary from a random sample?
Invisible don: Excellent question - well I have to give credit to someone else for this next statement chickenpie and I where talking once and she said we only really put the stuff in our diaries that we really want people to know about us or that we feel comfortable putting out there
Reporter 3 Can you give an example of something you leave out of your diary?
Invisible don: Sure my kids names - there isn’t really any reason for anyone to know them personally. Yes you in the toxic waste t-shirt
Toxic waste: Oh I’m just here for the coffee and smokes
Invisible don: All right party crashers - yes you in front
Reporter 1: Would you sign up for another review?
Invisible don: Oh yeah, I mean just because one 14 year old diary reviewer doesn’t like me doesn’t mean that she didn’t make some valid points but its all about fun on here (diaryland). This is a release for me I like playing in the neighborhood
Reporter 3: So you do you plan on taking the review link down?
Invisible don: No I mean if you can’t accept that maybe someone isn’t pleased with what you write or how you do it then maybe you shouldn’t play - Yes you there in the front with the laptop
Reporter 4: Do you think it’s a journaling sin to talk to your audience?
Invisible don: Well I suppose that most writing intellects would say yes - but I also think that every writer has an audience in mind when they write, to deny that is I think a bigger sin but I’m not a writer I think my lack of punctuation and grammar make that point rather well but back to the audience thing - this being a public diary I know and even want people to read what I write - even if they don’t like what I have to say - I’m an attention whore
Reporter 4: Are you always going to talk to your audience?
Invisible don: Yes why wouldn’t I, I’m an attention whore, I know they are there and I would just like to say Hi to all those who are reading today
Reporter 4: Ha Ha … Seriously - why talk to your audience?
Invisible don: Because they are there I talk to my self - I’ve even had a conversation or too with dog What part of I’m an attention whore are you having trouble with
Reporter 5: who is dog?
Invisible don: Dog doesn’t live here anymore - You there in the sundress
Reporter 6: (blows smoke from last draw on the cigarette) Your diary seems to be a bit random and jumps all over the place
Invisible don: Hey I’m not a writer - I don’t know if I want to be or not - like I said this is mainly for me to dump stuff from my head in to cyberspace - I never said my mind was neat and tidy
Reporter 6: Would you like to go out?
Invisible don: Excuse me… oh… I know you… you are that chick from my dreams yeah jump in my head later tonight we will do something
Reporter 6: OK (vanishes)
Invisible don: Yes you there on the right side in the tie
Reporter 7: Are you going to make changes to your diary?
Invisible don: Yes I think that diaries change right along with the writer - I know several of the diaries I read are constantly evolving - it keeps things fresh - You there in the smoking section
Reporter 8: What about cursing do you think it is appropriate?
Invisible don: Phuck yes - I mean just to be cursing to curse is rather coarse but these are words too and they do convey a point or feeling - I mean it’s all in how you curse some curse words are very versatile - Yes you there in the jams and t-shirt or are you with toxic waste?
Jams and t-shirt: Oh I’m with toxic waste but you said like cursing is OK with you why don’t you do it more
Invisible don: Because it isn’t always the best way to say something other times it is- Mostly though there are a plethora of other words to use rather than slang and curses - You there in the I love Invisible don t-shirt
Reporter 9: Don’t you think this is getting rather pointless and contrived
Invisible don: Yes I do well that seems to be everything - thanks for coming out this morning. T-shirts are available at the door along with the CD and posters enjoy the coffee and smokes stay as long as you like
Ciao

Cold steel slides beneath my skin
Pain is a warm blanket
Flowing out encircling me
Small pools at first
Clanging metal falling to the floor
Fear is a comfort to me
Draining from me
Larger pools shining in the dim light
Silent blade staring back at me
Unsheathed and still
Floating now in crimson
Stillness will be mine soon
Saturday night was distinctly different from Friday night

'til the cows come home
So my New Year didn’t start out very well
Shortly after I posted my last entry I got a call and was informed one of my friends had died. Not one of the golfing and fishing buddies but a friend all the same.
So, needless to say, that put a damper on things.
My friend Oliver was a kind person and a funny man.
He enjoyed playing pranks on people and would especially take great pleasure in making people who were up tight all the time mad – this was a trait I very much admired in him
He would say something to someone who was just too pompous or high strung and then sit back and grin as they exploded and their blood pressure would quickly raise. I will miss those days.
He was a good friend and all around great person
I hope I can be more like him in the coming year – always being able to find the bright spot in the day and not letting things get me down too much
So my friend I will miss our many conversations and more so your humor and outlook on life.

The invisible don and dog show
OK Tuesday and I'm back at work -- I really hate the long weekends because it is so hard to come back to work after them --
It's dogs first day alone in the house and I'm kinda worried about that because he was fairly hyper at 530 this am when I left --
Dog you better be sleeping -- I'm sure after 4 days of living together our cat to human psychic-link is working
I mean wherever I go in the house there he is so I'm sure I have no problems with the cat to human esp thing
dog also has a rude trip to the vet coming up soon too
The ol' snip snip visit -- dog was an abandoned kitty and I'm not going to contribute to the problem of abandoned kitties
So after a few more weeks our relationship is going to be put to the test
I'll let you know how that works out
I'm sure his opinion on the matter will be much different -- but he can't type so you'll have to take my word for it because I simply do not have the time to teach him to type
Oh and this is not going to become the invisible don and dog show either -- he is new and gets some spotlight and in few weeks you'll be asking what happened to dog??? And I'll be like nothing he sleeps all day and eats -- i want his life he can come work for the museum.
Speaking of working for the museum - I need to do that so I'm out

We got chewed out by the life guards and they were not like the girls on baywatch
So I'm being very bad about updating all of a sudden -- it's the busy thing again
I just read sunshine17's entry on surfing
It reminded me of when the other one and I were learning to surf
We were out on the waves mainly sitting --trying to look cool without actually surfing -- but we were doing OK and had actually ridden a few in without falling off the boards.
Well at one point when the beach is packed with people I'm sitting there on my board and not paying attention to anything really
All of a sudden I'm yanked under the water something has my ankle
I barely get a breath before I'm under and trying to pull my leg away from whatever has me
My mind is all SHARK OH PHUCK
I think that I'm gone
Then I'm free so I get to the surface and climb on the board and paddle toward shore
Boom
I'm under again
I'm really freakin out now I'm kicking and punching under the water at nothing
I get to the surface again and this time I pull my legs up on the board and paddle with just my arms
The other one comes up and is choking and laughing
He grabbed the leash and pulled me under both times
He thought it was funny until we both noticed the life guards were on the shore yelling to see if we were alright -- because I guess one of them saw me go under both times rather violently and thought what I thought -- shark bait -- we got chewed out by the life guards and they were not like the girls on Baywatch -- they were both guys and we didn't care much for them pointing and telling us that we weren't being very cool -- we went back out and surfed for a while longer then left the beach
Well I laugh about it now but at the time I wanted to beat the other one silly -- I'll have to see if he remembers that one
I didn't do anything over labor day and couldn't even have a beer because I'm still on an anti-biotic from when I was sick -- funny how they don't work when you drink
oh dog is fine he is sleeping now but I'm sure he sends his best too

They took the serious beat down
Invisible don is sad -- his college team got beat
They took the serious beat-down too
49-14
Marshall Thundering Herd drops the season opener in the Swamp -- Gators suck --OK anyone in Florida -- I'm sorry
So I didn't really expect them to win but you know it would have been nice to see them go in a win but not every wish can come true
dog is sleeping now
I will be soon too
They took the serious beat-down too

I named it Dog
OK -- I have noticed something that may not seem like earth shattering news to anyone and not even to me
No one comments on the difference in the banner that runs on d-land and the one that runs on my older pages.
I thought it would be funny to contradict the things but hey that is just me
So one of my parental units has a b-day today -- I'm not calling so I suspect that the peacemaker will have something nasty to say to me later on in the day or I will get a blazing e-mail telling me what a Bastard I am -- and now I can say not only that I'm the King of the Bastards and I am 85% bastard how much are you
any way
So it is a misty rainy morning it is rather quiet here
I have a cat now or more to the point a kitten
I'm not sure why I have this but I do now
I named it dog
So if he ever gets away I can ask people if they have seen my cat, dog.
Can you imagine the looks -- i can
So dog and I are drinking coffee -- I am anyway dog doesn't like his
Side note for all you in the SPCA or PETA -- I'm not really giving the cat named dog coffee -- it's mine and if he wants some he can go to the store and buy his own.
OK well I'm off to go do something productive and see if I can't snag a pizza heat wave bag while the delivery guy is away from his car
