Erasure was never really a band I listened to other than when it was on the satellite, in fact, I never downloaded a track ever. When I took Kaine into her final appointment with the vet last year they were playing on the radio before and after. Since then the little quirky pop have held a place in my heart to feel good...nothing special about the songs but memories of what was and what is now not. If I had that day over again I would leave and not take the same steps I took, I'd take different paths to make sure I didn't end up to where I am now. Happiness is hidden in the midst of stress you have and only realize it was happiness when it leaves you for someone else.
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going no where
Going no where
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression
No expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow
During my nightly hike through the woods I hid on the hill and planned my attack on the ATV bunch.
Is there something wrong with me because:
I giggle when an announcer says they want to see a dp in baseball
License plates starting with A55 make me chuckle
I am getting sick of all these star wars
I think it's fun to use vending machines
Mixing flavors is the best part about a fountain
I put baby cereal in my dog's food
If it wasn't for society I would never bathe or shave
Crumb donettes are better than chocolate
I avoid eye contact with someone I don't want to talk to and when I get a chance to look...we both look at the same time
Donnie Darko
It's fun to run up hills
I would be first in line to become a cyborg
writing a fanfic of an OTR superhero team consisting of Jack Benny, Fibber, and Gildersleeve versus the evil Riley is tops on my list of priorities
if I had food in front of me I'd eat all day and night
I would like to take a holiday on the moon
most days I want to shout
playing games on a green LCD gameboy is fun
i like my chucks
I have the power to rip phone books given to me by power team
is there a manly way to eat a corndog
I eat peanut butter, mayo, pickle sandwiches and want a runza now
hot cheetos covered in lime juice is delicious
tostadas with salt and lime are yumms
I associate german shepherds with the west and those native american blankets
I feel as if a tiny voice screamed out and was suddenly silenced when I kill a bug
someday I will rule the world
There are a few opportunities in this meager life for me to warrant walking or going to various places, the opportunity for free stuff. To feel as if it is beneficial to spend precious gas to go to a dogpark or walk for an hour it is important for one to receive a positive benefit gleaned from the experience.
1. Tennis balls at the tennis court...hit over the fence by overzealous players trying to impress their girlfriends with their massive forearm
2. Dog doo bags at the dog park...this saves me easily 3 bucks each trip
3.? what will be the next freebie
A fake Jamaican took every last dime with a scam.
It was worth it just to learn some sleight-of-hand.
Bad news comes don't you worry even when it lands.
Good news will work its way to all them plans.
We both got fired on exactly the same day.
Well we'll float on good news is on the way.
Wandering in the forest the other day I stumbled upon a plum tree
This wild tree was filled with sweet fruit in the middle of waste
The trunk was old, cracked, and thin
This tree continues to bring life to an otherwise dead place
This lonely soul will inspire and survive
Once upon a time I was a wee little person walking around, working, and living my life with no adoring, passionate, selfish attention being placed upon my life by others, because I was just living life. That is when I woke up out of that hazy dream of being nice and helping others to discover my true calling, myself! After realizing this I had to make myself appear awesome to all the real fabulous friends of wealth, fame, and influence I wanted to adore me. There was a knock on my door, I answered and in walked the solution, guns.

spaceyGenerally most people like books or at the very least don't hate books. Now you have the crazies that want to burn books (hitler, pol pot and Christopher Columbus) some just read about sports...this entry doesn't apply to them.
For some odd reason whenever a book arrives and I am around I have to examine it thouroughly. I have a tough time throwing things away anyway (just ask Tonto), but when it comes to books I feel as if I am committing a crime. It must be all those scary librarians yelling at me in my head from years and years of telling me not to dogear, spill, throw away, etc. They scared me... I have a couple criteria in my head for me to hang on to books:
1. If they are useful to me now or in the future at work...this is the main criteria
2. If they have some sentimental value in my memory...old...I can't toss an old book in the bin - this one gives me the moniker hoarder
So, this week a few books show-up; Pinocchio with a record and Briar Rabitt and the Tar Baby with a record. These literary and auditory masterpieces are at least over 30 years old. Pinocchio is filled with creepy pictures of the wooden boy and his creepy creator all feeling his oaky body with his bony fingers. The record puts the sound effects to the pictures with a lovely voice detailing the proceedings. Oddly enough, it isn't Chris Hanson, maybe his dad?
Then there is Brer Rabbit and the tar baby...nuff said really. How in the world was this book ever deemed worthy for print. Brer makes a baby out of tar...all black. Yeah this book is so wrong. In fact the combination of these two odd books makes you wonder about the person donating them. Therefore now I have to find a place to donate them because I can't just toss them in the bin. I have to keep paying it forward until they find their right home...probably Alabama.

I love that Culver's slogan, pure genius. Who would ever be against building a better anything? In fact, I believe I would be even more flattered if a company said the truth, "Same 'ol thangs" or "not really trying." After hearing this ad I decided what else could it be applied to...
Pentagon: Building a better bomb.
General A: I wish I could quit making this same ol crap
Colonel B: Why don't we just say we're going to build a better bomb?
General A: genius...blow it up
Company A: Building a better service.
Man A: I wish we could do what everyone else is already doing...but get paid for it.
Man B: Why don't we just say we're going to build a better service?
Man A: Genius! ...blow it up, blow it all up!
Library: Building a better library.
Librarian A: how can we get people back in through the door. We just can't compete with online resources and porn. National geographic just doesn't do it anymore.
Bibliophile A: Why don't we just say we're building a better library?
Librarian A: Genius! Can we say it has 25% more porn than before?
Bibliophile A: sure...Building a better library, now with 25% more porn!
Librarian A: ...blow it up.
So I wonder what company would ever be against a better anything which means everyone will always say they are better than the alternative. How do you weed through the crud and find that person or company actually trying to do something better and help you? The only suggestion I have is to have your wits about you. Remember if you are the one paying money for anything, it is you that has control. You can always talk a person or company down or shop for a lower price. It is the company or person that takes the extra mile to keep you with them. You have to love the free gift baskets. Gift baskets do it every time for me. That would be something I would like to see, building a better gift basket!
