There is nothing to read here. The content is over there, to your right.

I may, however, at some point, put something here. Some day. Eventually. No pressure.

The kidlets have been gone for a while and I have accomplished:

1)nothing
2)a hankering for junk food
3)a renewed appreciation for Olympic athletes
4)a renewed (and surprisingly) deep hatred for female gymnasts that have the vocal pitch of 4 year olds (thus meaning, all female gymnasts)

It's been a productive week. What day is it?




My recent musical inclinations have been leaning towards rock - Etheridge, Blue Oyster Cult, Nazareth.. So why oh why have I had Linda Eder's voice on repeat in my wee brain, constantly singing the silly refrain "In a very unusual way, I think I love you.." It is annoying the hell out of me and my dog (who has to put up with my Tourette's-like occasional outburst of that line in an attempt to purge it from memory).

Crap broadway singers.




I have been writing poetry.

Bad poetry. I could be Hallmark's poet laureate had I the inclination. I do not. Lucky you.

I have a talent for naughty limericks, however. I'm rather shocked at how many words do in fact rhyme with 'fuck'.

I could be arrested in some countries for the very idea of what I've put that poor woman from Nantucket through.




My favourite movie quote this week? Glad you asked:

"Hey how come Andrew gets to get up? If he gets up we'll all get up. It'll be anarchy!" - Bender

-this because I peed myself laughing when in a recent chatroom dust-up (User Darwin has been removed and blocked from the chat module. Their IP address has been logged...etc etc.) someone made the statement that if Abbie Hoffman had a penis, she would have been a more successful anarchist.

You know damn well you would have laughed too. Though you may not have used the same words I used (which resulted in my being booted from the room).

No matter how many words rhyme with it, there are some moments when "fuck" just gets the job done better.




My daughter sent me a photo of the Golden Gate bridge. And Alcatraz. She's such a good little tourist.




Actual quotes from my 13 year old son:

on seeing a neighbourhood child screaming at the top of her gawd-awful lungs: "Aww.. poor thing"

10 seconds later on seeing the screaming child's twin sister come running around the corner to join her in some sibling-stereo-shrieking: "Sweet jesus there's two of them! Can they be stopped?!"

heh. So no, he's not allowed to say "jesus" in that way - I do so lecture my children on tolerance. But it made me chuckle. He sounds (unfortunately) a lot like me.

Poor kid's gonna get his ass kicked a few times in his teen years, methinks.




Too many IM programs. I spent over 15 minutes deleting names off of my various "buddy" lists in ICQ, yahoo! and MSN messenger. Considering that on those rare occasions I do turn one of them on, 95% of the time I'm in invisible mode. I had names of people I've never even sent/received a message from, people I don't even remember adding, and some people I have no clue whom they are! I felt better just deleting them instead of sending the lame post "um - who the hell are you and why are you on my list?"

If only dealing with people IRL were that easy.

Not that I'm really anti-people. I'm just anti-stupid-people. There just happens to be a whole passel (herd? pod? what IS the term for large groups of dumb-asses? No, no, besides "Republican Convention", I mean)..a whole passel of stupid people out there, that's all. So it only seems I hate everyone. I don't. Just the dumb ones.



soundtrack: AC/DC - "Back in Black"
