This isn't a real post. Okay, it's a post, but whatever. I just got bored at work and was browsing and this book of poetry we just got in kinda caught my eye and the first poem was just amazing, so I have to share.
The Dash Poem

I read of a man who stood to speak
At the funeral of a friend

Major shocker. Mickey showed up at the station a few days ago, like a day after I stopped by his place. He reported that one of his bartenders, a guy named Frank, had tampered with his equipment and broken into the safe. But I think he won dad over, which is cool. Dad did say they were gonna reconsider my punishment. Appearantly Mickey told him ( Read more... )

I was going to post later this week to say I'd be gone from Friday until like, Thursday at Lake Powell with my family...Change of plans folks!

Here I thought that I'd get a break from stuff, but noooo. Not more than twenty-four freaking hours and...*sigh* I can tell this is going to be trouble. Well, I guess it just goes along with what people say: No rest for the wicked and the righteous don't (supposedly) need it...

I just hope this doesn't get me killed by the parental units...

Just gone...God said I'd done what I needed to, that it was over...I just...I'm kinda in shock right now. How could it be that easy? How could it be that just...How can he just be gone? There ( Read more... )

Ryan is gone. Just gone. Mom, dad, and Kevin all came home totally shocked because he just...disappeared. He gave notice at the paper that the old management was coming back, that he was leaving for an indefinite period of time, he gave up his seat on the school board and on the Watchdog Committee...I-I don't even know what to make of this, but...I ( Read more... )

I'm *finally* feeling better. But now Adam has the chicken pox. He's very stubborn when he's sick. I've had to send mom over there to make him behave.

I can't believe tomorrow is the 4th of July. Summer is going too fast.
