Remember the Snake Lady?

Image via Wikipedia I haven’t posted about the snake lady in quite some time. Remember her? She’s the hippie lady that worked for me. The one that missed work because her chicken died. Boy I ranted about that one. I don’t guess I have posted much about work here in quite some time. That’s more…Read more

Silly Sunday

Image via Wikipedia I absolutely dislike my grandma Trish. Occasionally she is really crazy, then last week she just disturbed me… I begged her guidance thinking about literature on the African subcontinent, but then she was all: “Get out! I am so sick of hearing about the African subcontinent all the time!“ At first I…Read more

Silly Sunday

I very much dislike my nephew Junior. At times he is really difficult to handle, but then last week he just disturbed me… I could really use his help talking to someone about luck on the African subcontinent, but then he began yelling: “No kidding?!

Poop Cookies…

Dead Bird in the Road…

Work Sucks…

This sucks. I had one day off last week. This week I had only yesterday and I had to go in for a couple of hours. I did not want to get out of bed today and damn sure don’t want to drive to work. It’s certainly going to be a busy day… We had…Read more

Charter High-Speed

I’ve been using Charter internet access ever since it became available out here in the boondocks a few years back. Prior to that I had DSL through Bellsouth. While I liked having a static IP address (which I had to pay extra for) Charter High Speed is certainly much faster than DSL ever was, at…Read more
