If You Can't Stand the Heat. . .

Get a new job. . .

It's been so hot this whole week.  Well, into the triple digits.  And not to mention friggin' ants.  Oh, and Chiggers.  Grr.  I can't stop itching around my ankles.  I wanna gnaw my frickin' feet off. . .  Chiggers being found in tall, tall grass.  They bite ya, then ya itch.  Nuff said.  They're also called Harvest mites, and for our Aussie friends, scrub-itch mites.  *mumbles* stupid bugs.

Though they helped me plot a story.  Yeah.  I dunno what it's called, but the plot is simple.  I had told a friend I had chigger bites, and I wasn't sure if she knew what they were.  But if she didn't, I was gonna tell her they were little parasites that swam up your urethra and laid eggs and then when they hatched. . . well, something would explode.  Yeah.  I watch too much horror, and that idea has me in a desparate need for Slither, which has Firefly's Captain Malcolm Reynolds as a sherrif.

In our midst of all white employees, being 6 white people and one black guy, whom i had gone to school with, there has been some racial humor.  Such as:

Marcus (about the heat): I feel like I'm cooking.
Me: You do look like you're burnt.

Of course, he said I was like a turkey or pork chop (both being white meat) lol.  He and I were in the band together.  He's actually going to Delta State University to become a plastic surgeon.  Go figure.

As for me, I'm exhausted.  It's been one helluva long week.  My legs hurt, my arms, my head, my throat.  I'm sick of it.  At least tomorrow is an off day.  Was hoping for a massage.  Full body.  Anyone offer those?  *smug*

Tomorrow, I think I'm gonna work on my pond.  I need to empty it, clean it, and then fill it up again.  It's become cloudy, because I needed a UV filter to kill the algae, which I bought yesterday alond with a turtle spitter.  Because I have to run the water beind pumped by the mechanical filter to the UV filter, which I hope will work out to being pumped through the turtle water spitter and into the pond.  I'll try to post pics.  Then the water should stay clear.  I also have to put rock around the pond and build a waterfall, cuz I want one.  That's why. :P

Scifi aired Ultraviolet and then Equilibrium.  Too similar those two are.  Gun fu. . .   At the end, they announced something that caught my attention, because I'm a huge HUGE fan of Thomas Jane, after he played in The Punisher (2004) and The Mist, which is an awesome, and shocking movie.  Don't believe me?  Watch the ending!  But Mutant Chronicles is airing next Saturday!!!!  And now Scifi is airing a not-so-scifi-y movie: Dick Tracy.  How inconspicuous is a yellow hat and coat?  Wait, what was I on about?  Blah.

That was pretty much my day, and my plans for tomorrow.  The biggest problem is waking up.  Now, it's bed time.  Anyone interested in joining?  *falls out cold*

life, sucks, work
