There’s nothing like wonky wireless at home

Tuesday, May 31st, 2011

To make you want to come to work. I observed NO TRAFFIC but every truck in the lower mainland was attempting to bind its bumper to my tailpipe, like, ew, and then I observed DUCKLINGS on the duck pond, and then I observed that I have no network access, so the work I came in [...]

That went well

Sunday, May 29th, 2011

The service went really well.  Rozanne did a fabulous job as showrunner.  (mmmm, not very worshipful language but o well). Here’s an amazing skyscape from New Zealand.

Cute and safe for work

A good place to be from.

rounding down er something

Thursday, May 26th, 2011

Hijacked ads, not safe for work. Mike got the job. I’m very anxious about Sunday. Bisexual and venomous.  Safe for work. Laughing is not an option, I don’t want to wake Jeff up. Who knew you could hand rear a honey badger? It’s like having the world’s squirmiest toddler. Fifteen HUNDRED people? The whole town [...]

I did NOT go to work yesterday

Tuesday, May 24th, 2011

The lazing and loafing went on pretty much continuously.

lazing and loafing

Monday, May 23rd, 2011

As much as I’d like to make it three for three for days worth of loafing, I am going to go in to work and hack away at some stuff that’s really bothering me.  Then I will feel calmer.  I figure I’ll get as much done in 4 hours as I would in 12, so [...]

I know you’re not supposed to smoke salvia

Saturday, May 21st, 2011

Let alone drive on it.  Watch this guy try to drive on salvia.  Hint… he never leaves the driveway. Anyway, I laughed my ass off.

Saturday round up with extra moose

Saturday, May 21st, 2011

Considering that I think marriage is a crock I don’t know ‘zactly how to feel about this. Disturbing pic of a kid done up Clockwork Orange style. I’m only posting this in the hopes that pOp will forward a story about his childhood, maybe with an optional explosion. Man, I didn’t know there was a [...]

Friday, May 20th, 2011

Seanan is one weird chica. HOWEVER this is the song of hers I cannot for the life of me get out of my head right now.

Moose on the loose

Yesterday I signed the lease

Friday, May 20th, 2011

So this will be our third year here. I keep looking at the little garden patch.  I’m just not a gardener. Jeff did the lawn just in time for the landlords to show up…. very good timing. I am going to be all alone in the call center today.  Usually Fridays are slow.  We shall [...]

From the road trip

Wednesday, May 18th, 2011

Lady Miss B, hubster ‘Seph and baby Bean are traversing the Black Hills of Dakota (I’d be stopping in Deadwood, but meh, that’s me).  Anyway the highway they are on is lined with ‘creepy’ pro life billboards, one of which was, “Your mother was Pro Life” at which point the entire family yells, “NO SHE [...]

Many o many a weary mile

Tuesday, May 17th, 2011

I wrote an ingathering song for church what feels like a couple of weeks ago and when I looked in Songwriter to see what the date was it was 2006. Many o many a weary mile/To be with you, to be with you/Many o many a weary mile/I’ve journeyed to be with you/From the mountains [...]
