Happy Fall Back Day!!!!!

This is my favorite day -- an extra hour of SLEEP. I know that I am just getting back what I lost in the spring, but that was so long ago that I like to think this is extra. A special sleep hour just for me. I hope YOUR extra hour was as enjoyable as mine.

Friday, Bloody Friday


3 RUFK Me on the way to work today. Bad, Bad Jamie.

Then I went to see the VCU Dance Faculty performance. I got most of it. I don't know why I feel I have to get it, but I do. Enough with the staring at the ceiling already.

I returned home to the alarming message that a karaoke machine had been procured for my upcoming birthday party. Oh no. No, No, No. 2 kegs and 2 bands is enough excitement for one shindig. Sadly, it is too late to lay the smack down tonight. Now I can build a good head of indignant steam before the conversation tomorrow. Here is how it will hopefully go:

"Hey, got your message," I'll say firmly.

"Isn't it great? I think it will be a blast!" she'll say giddily.

"Actually, I was calling to tell you that I don't want Karaoke at the party. Please call your friend/that heinous cow (optional word choice) and tell her that I declined her offer," I'll say airily.

"Come on! It will be so much fun," she'll say disappointedly.

"Either the karaoke machine goes or I do," I'll say determinedly.

"O.K. I'm clearly no match for your newly therapized (word creation) backbone. I really admire you for taking a stand," she'll say supportively.

I'll let you know how it goes......

While I'm getting all quotational, can I just say how much I love www.overheardinnewyork.com? (Hyperlinks, like segues, are for kids) If I weren't so lazy and blog challenged I would start up www.overheardinrichmond.com. I'm surrounded by good material:

"Dude, I can't play with her all the time. You have to play with her some."

"We'll be up there singing Stand by Your Man, if it kills us. Which it might."

"I like S'mores. You just like SMORE."

"TOTALLY gay. Yet not."

I love the random quote. If you recognize your words, post a comment.

WWJP?

99 Problems But a Witch Ain't One

I just need to catch her eye and maybe she’ll stop. How DARE I suggest that she move out and take her stupid cat? I think she’s really just mad because I picked Halloween. Seemed appropriate to confront a witch on Halloween and since her mother wasn’t available….. Ha! I’ve got a million of them. If I could just manage to catch her eye, maybe she will unseal my mouth. This is all Vladimir’s fault. If he would get those canines filed down, I wouldn’t have thought he said she was a bitch. Dating a bitch I can handle….
