NaNoWriMo
Look it up.
It's going to be my master for the next few weeks. So anything that shows up here will be bits as pieces of the larger whole and may make no sense at all.
It's less than 27 days and I've got 50,000 to go.
Wish me luck!

In jokes to annoy a shoveler - see scorpion/frog
Once upon a time...
...you're welcome.
...a-delic.
...intermittant.
...I know we're not speaking, but...
...biggest asshole EVER!
...a shirt? Over a shirt?
...have fun, Cinderella.
So we are not gonna get swept. That makes me feel better.
When I was in HS I fell head over heels in lust with a picture in the yearbook. It just happened that it was the head cheerleader. She was a senior and I was just a sophomore. Somehow we ended up dating. After graduating we spent the summer getting drunk and listening to U2 - getting caught drunk as monkeys by her parents once. But at the end of the summer she was going off to Sweden as an exchange student. I was in love by then and bought a diamond ring. We spoke at least once a month while she was in Malmo - the name still makes me want to smash something.
In the wee hours of Christmas 1986 before the sun was even thinking about rising, we were on the phone. Man those calls were expensive! But in the middle of the call the call waiting beeped. I ignored it at first but it was insistent. Finally I asked her to hold on and took the call. It was my brother-in-law. Now I love T-Bone, but he has a bit of a history with powders and needles and such. So when he breathlessly informed me that my pregnant sister was having a baby I responded, "Yeah, T, I know she's pregnant, but I am on the phone to Sweden."
He countered, "No, she's having the baby right now!"
"Oh. OK, hang on," I managed and then clicked over to bid my love adieu.
That was my favorite Sweden story. The baby, btw, was my darling neice Amie, who has always been my girl.
I hate Sweden. But have to deal with it because a friend is moving there and is in love with a Swede and we love them. Dammit.

Thank you StatCounter
Thanks to StatCounter I know that I just got a visit from someone in Muskogee, OK. Looking for Becca Mann. You realize what this means, right?
Yep.
Thank ya, Merle.
Yep.
Thank ya, Merle.
Phuck the Phillies, their phans and that phucking green thing too!
Utter and total domination by Cliff Lee in Game 1. No matter how this Series goes down, that pitching performance was one for the ages. Let's just hope that was it and he shot his wad. I have a feeling though that we're gonna get swept. I'm glad I can't watch it. I'd be exhausted and pissed off today. As it is, I'm ok. Sports have kinda lost a bit of their luster.
I sometimes want to blog about work, but remember the horror stories. A friend of mine lost years worth of blogs and almost got canned because he was unmasked as blogging about the office. Thin skin on some corporations, eh?
I cannot get motivated to exercise and I'm not sure why. I am getting up almost early enough. I'm not overtly exhausted. I just can't push myself to do it. Must work on that.
The Newt is starting to mimic more words and ran around this morning singing "Happy, happy!" Now if we can get her to do the "Joy, joy!" part we'll really have something. I'll teach your grandmother to suck eggs!

I have a feeling this winter is gonna suck
It's just a gut feeling based on nothing more than the way things have been all summer - rainy and cooler - and the fact that we really had very little autumn. I just think that we are fucked black, blue and sideways starting very soon and continuing through the alleged "winter months".
I would really like to see a career trajectory for Jim Zorn similar to that of Bill Belichick. I doubt it, but I'd just love to see him move on and eventually coach some team to a few Super Bowls so that the 'Skins can sit and ponder what could have been. Maybe it will make them realize it's not the coach. It's never been the coach. The team is poisoned from the top down and needs to be blown up and started from scratch. Not that it will happen as long as Napoleon owns them. So get used to years of futility, 'Skins.
The NBA season seems to be starting and I care not even a little bit.
Yanks in 6.
Thomas Sowell is right: Barry's problem people are not due to a lack of vetting, they are being put in those positions specifically because of their views. This is who Barry is and who he wants around him: Truthers, Commies and Islamists. If you hate America, there's a spot for you in the St. Barry House for America Hating One Worlders. Makes me want to puke.
