Wow- slacker!

I was going to put in a full-fledged update, really, but photobucket is currently taking a good day or so to upload my new, fun, photos. I'm going to put it off until tomorrow or.... ya. I thought, in the mean time, I share some of the sheer nonsense I've been up to.

Basically, I've been writing a lot of brain-dead crap that humors me. Very short, simple, easy to digest, maybe you'll laugh or realize how pathetic I am, either way- it's sure to be a step in the right direction. :p

ZOMBIES

On a recent vacation to see me my dad left me a note that includes a line reading "Watch out for zombies!". My first thought was good, at least he 'gets' it. I realized a few hours later that he was probably just trying to humor me.

I'm twenty-six years old.

I'm truly disappointed by that thought.

ALCOHOLICS

I find it fascinating that more bands that employ the JUG as an instrument didn't originate at college parties.

MEMORIAL DAY

I had a very intense sickness once and I thought I was dying. I refused to go see a doctor for three days.

When I finally went to seek a professional opinion it was holiday. I had to wait two hours in the urgent care center because every mini-van driving mother in the city was there with her entire clan of children.

At the time, I remember, the wait was horrible. Now, when I look back, I think it must have been worse for those mothers, either that, or they really don't know what to do with their days off.

STRANDED

I used to lock my keys in my car a lot when I was younger.

I now think this was nothing more than a strong avoidance to going to work.

HIGH CLASS WOMAN

I always thought the tree in the hall at work was real. A gaudy woman just informed me that it is not. I asked, "Why, then, are there very real, dead, fallen leaves underneath this very fake tree?".

"To make people believe that it is real" she replied, looking at me as though this should have been obvious.

"Well," I said, "If we don't mind the dead leaves, why not just have a real tree?", doing my best impersonation of her in my delivery.

She looked at me as though this were the craziest idea she'd ever heard and she walked away. I don't think she liked my shirt.

GENIUS

I had a dream the other day that the murky, man-made lake outside my door had been transformed into a storybook paradise. Crystal clear waters, mer-folk, sparking fish and glittery castles underneath-- a complete storybook wonderland.

When I woke in the morning I bolted down the stairs, out the door, and ran down to the water's edge.

It was just as murky as usual. I probably should have known better.

IMAGE

When my friends and I were younger we used to manipulate our lighters in a way that made the flames shoot up six inches high.

It was clearly not a well thought out hobby. We were far too concerned with our image at that time to be putting our faces in such mortal peril.

WISDOM

As a nocturnal creature, how much can an owl really know?

I enjoy it, I laugh at myself. So- pictures and more fun later, hope this is enjoyable as well. :)

Let me know what you think, ya? Personally, for me, they're in order from least favorite to most favorite- but who's the judge?

I agree. The fake versus real tree conundrum was awesome. But would a "wise" owl know the difference?

You should use flickr for your photos. All the cool kids do ;)
