I've been trying to think of stuff to write about. The harder I think, the worser it gets. . .I mean the brain flat line. . So on my way home today, tryin' to stay awake. I had a revelation, (boy, i had to go to dictionary.com for that one, spelled it correctly, incorrectly, finally correctly but it still didn't look right. .)
I absolutely love dictionary.com! it saves me. especially for school. sometimes for here. not always. sometimes i don't care.
anyways. my thoughts for a new story. my thoughts on the way home from work. or town. alone or with someone in the car. .(which always throws a kink in talkin' to myself since they seem to think i want an answer. .)
here's one: (there are many but i will use this one)
jd and i went to see the movie The Book of Eli (i'm gonna link this when IE decides to start workin' again.)
ANYWAYS. (i do not feel like capitalzin' tonite either) (in case you haven't noticed yet) we are comin' home and this is our conversation: (reminds me of the dog in UP) (good movie if you like adult/children cartoons)
ME: (rubber neckin' at the scenery) (chatterin about nothing mostly, but in the middle of some word i bust out laughin)
JD: WHAT? did i miss somethin' here mom?

You know it is going to be a funky day. .
When you sit down and find that you can read
on the band of your underwear. . instead of
TERCES S'AIROTCIV
(now of course I know all the letters would have been switched but I have yet to figure out how to mirror the letters on the computer! So just use your imagination! Don't know how to make the lines either. .)
So go ahead, kackle. I did. I also shook my head. It was noon. Too late to switch it!

Harlie Barlie, T-R-O-U-B-L-E
Harlie Barlie, the basset/beagle mix. Remember her? Trouble. Just walkin' trouble. That is what she is.
1. She is very smart so is very easily bored. Lately, one of the objects of her affection? The water faucet in the back yard. (I will see if I can get a picture of it.) It is about 18" outta the ground.
When I moved in, it had a white plastic bucket over it. Looked crappy. I threw the bucket away. I went and bought the foam/silver stuff that insulates pipes. The faucet sorta looks like this one. Well, it used to.
Yeah, you guessed it. She has been tearin' it off. So bein' the redneck that I am, I figure that duct tape will help me keep all the pieces on. So I stick as many pieces of the sticky foamy silver stuff as I can possibly find back on. Mind you, I am findin' them in my bed, under the kitchen table, in the recliner, on the floor anywhere. I think I even found a piece in the bathroom. Oh, yeah, and in the yard.
Out comes the duct tape. The whole 18" is now wrapped. TWICE.
I get ready for bed the next night. What do you think I found on my pillow? Yup. You got it. Duct tape. She has chewed the knuckle of the faucet all the way down to the pipe. SEE?
