I thought my night was going to be ruined by a stomach ache, but Lorene's Tagamet and Toni's Zantac worked their magic on me, eventually. By the way, it was a hell of a lot of fun to see everyone in one place, last night!

Why is it that this cat wants nothing to do with me almost all of the time........EXCEPT WHEN I'M ON THE FUCKING SHITTER!?!? I have no desire to pet my cat in the midst of pinching a loaf! Doesn't she understand that this is Dylan's reading time? Apparently not, since she cries at the bathroom door until I let her in! Then she rubs up against my legs, which she doesn't do any other time. And she stares up at me. And if that doesn't work, she flops down on the floor on her back, guilting me in to rubbing her belly. Of course, as soon as I'm out of the bathroom, I'm the fucking plague, and she runs from me if I come near her. Even if I'm just walking by, she's convinced I'm after her, and she hides under some piece of furniture or other. And if I have her cornered or find her sleeping somewhere, and pet her, she cringes from me as if I'm going to club her over the head. I'm convinced that this is kind of a dumb cat. Cute, but dumb.
...and was ready to quit blogging altogether. I tried to publish to my geocities account, and blogger wasn't recognizing the ftp for geocities. Fortunately, I don't always give up that easily, and I muddled through bloggers help system, and am publishing directly to one of geocities IP addresses. They really do have pretty good support at blogger, but if I was any more computer illiterate than I am, I'd be going out of my mind.
...is what I said as I fell down the cement stairs on our front porch, whilst shoveling the foot of snow we got last night. Thankfully, the snow padded my fall, kinda. And thankfully, none of my neighbors bore witness to this. And it's really fucking disheartening when you're shoveling off a foot of snow, just to have it replaced by four more inches, just to have that replaced by 2 more inches. On a positive note, the snow shoveling gave me reason to chat with a neighbor that I haven't chatted with for about 10 years. I had forgotten what a nice guy he is. Now my back and legs are sore as if I'd been fucking a moose! ...not that I would know what that feels like.

I haven't really made any blog entries that were funny and original at the same time for many months. I think it's because all I really have to talk about is work and Lorene. I've already mentioned that revealing much about my interactions with Lorene is not going to happen. I have no desire to write something about her and have anyone maybe misinterpret it. Our relationship is far too precious to me to toy with it so. And as far as work goes, I don't feel real comfortable bitching too much about it for fear that someone at work will come across this and something I say about the place ends up violating some policy. Believe me, I could fill a lot of entries with my gripes and sarcasm about that place. But they pay me, and I can't endanger that arrangement. At any rate, I need to start becoming more active, so that I have funny stories to relay to you. Maybe I can find something to write about at the gym, or maybe I can provoke my parents in to a good fight. That always makes for a funny story. I will probably be seeing crazy grandma soon. Maybe she will provide me with some blog fodder. My cousin from the navy will be in town soon. I wish he still spoke in rap lingo, so I could mock him. I think that anything I said about Scott or Jeff would be redundant. My aunt recently went in for surgery....that's not funny. Shit, my great-grandmother called me recently and didn't even give me her usual guilt trips. What the hell can I blog about? god I suck! god. Do you think that this is an indication that I should read more? So that I can maybe express valid opinions about current events? ... ... ... Nah. I will continue to spew out my ill-informed opinions on nearly any issue. I just need to watch CNN more.

Chef: Stan, sometimes god takes those closest to us because it makes him feel better about himself. He is a very vengeful god, Stan. He's all pissed off about something we did thousands of years ago. He just can't get over it. So he doesn't care who he takes- children, puppies; it don't matter to him, so long as it makes us sad. Do you understand? Stan: So, why does god give us anything to start with? Chef: Look at it this way. If you want to make a baby cry, first you give it a lollipop, then you take it away. If you never give it a lollipop to begin with, then it would have nothing to cry about. That's like god, who gives us life and love and health, just so he can tear it all away, and make us cry. So he can drink the sweet milk of our tears. You see, it's our tears, Stan, that give god his great power. Stan: I think I understand.

So, I just finished filling out my third shift bid. Hope they finally have it right. All of the selections that I might get with my seniority are pretty suckass, so I'll just deal with it, I guess. And have I told you how freaky it is to be working right across from someone, just to turn around around after taking calls, and see that their desk is cleaned out, they are logged out of their computer and gone? It's a good time. I don't really know why they (the mighty corporation) let him go, but I have a vague idea.
