Monday...yup it sure was..

So, we'll start off with a meme...cause that was kinda fun.

50 As a 1930s wife, I am Average Take the test!

Then we'll talk a bit about the rather annoying day that is called monday. Seemed that everyone didn't want to be at work either and were tired and despondent about things in general. This was made perfectly clear with the one guy you've heard me talk about not paying attention to the conversation during a meeting and then asking the exact question we answered. yeah, special. Went to some meetings for my new team. Work with DOM (Dirty Old Man) on a few things and had fun with that. We rocked and rolled on some analysis much to the pleasure of our reliability guy. Then I was able to relax the last half hour and work on a few small things before heading out to do some shopping.

I hit Miller's surplus and picked up to camping cots, a can of tana waterproofing and a new carebiner(sp?) for my keys. Then I went to 17th street market for a few things and then home. Even with the AC on in the car I was hot and my head wasn't happy when I got home. I took my hair down and snuggled up on the couch for a minute that turned into a 40 min nap with the caps oozing all over me. (seriously, it looked like butterfly was melting down my leg). I felt much better after a nap and got laundry going and had dinner with the husband. Then we handled getting the court reports up to date and I trundled off to ari's for scribble. We had progress from everyone. Icka was uber awesome and traced out, I'm not even sure how many, scrolls. We all painted and I was able to finish a scroll (the first one since my elevation). I like it so much I'm going to do the calligraphy, yup. Got home a bit earlier than normal. Mel and I sat and chatted. He showed me that he'd taken apart the travel wheel and had linseed oiled its entirety and reglued a few places. He has plans to pack things up tommorrow and get the wheel spinning again and then ready to pack for the trip. I have lots of errands still (target) and stuff to get ready for for my class on wednesday. Sighs. Not enough hours in the day. So, since I need to ...its time for a to do list!

Funnies from Last week

I'm currently contemplating an issue at work and it needs to stew so I was reminded of a few things that should give people a laugh...

#1) Did you know people think mel is CHINESE?
Mel went to pick up donuts at the local Donut Wheel on thursday am. The gal at the drivethru, asian herself, asked mel if he had any chinese in him...can you believe it! I guess it must be the beard and his kung fu skilz.

#2) Johnny Cash was a modern day Landsknecht

My evidence - Example A from "A Boy Named Sue"
But I busted a chair right across his teeth
And we crashed through the wall and into the street
Kicking and a' gouging in the mud and the blood and the beer.


Example B from "Sunday Morning Coming Down"
Well, I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt.
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad,
So I had one more for dessert.
Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes
And found my cleanest dirty shirt.
Then I washed my face and combed my hair
And stumbled down the stairs to meet the day.

Yup.
