Lights On, but Nobody's Home...
The following thoughts come from the bottom file cabinet of my brain and should be treated with caution.
* My Life's Little Instruction Calendar and I are in a love/hate relationship. It likes to tell me what to do and I like to call it judgmental. It says I'm a poor friend if I've sent less than three handwritten letters this year, but how many has the calendar sent, huh? I rest my case.
* If you have to wear shades when the future is so bright, does that mean that you have to wear one of those spelunking helmets when your future outlook is dark? Spelunking helmet = cooler than shades...score one for pessimism.
* Yes, it would be a big political mess if our government were replaced with orangutans in suits, but it would make C-SPAN more fun to watch.
* We are going through another round of layoffs here at work and we know it will affect our department, but we don't know exactly how yet. To be completely honest with you, I don't know what outcome I'm really hoping for myself here. There are benefits to keeping my job and benefits to getting booted...I guess it's kind of a win/win. (Curse my optimism! I'll never get to wear that spelunking helmet!)
* Parents, if you ever go to a fund-raising comedy show and your charming daughter sits in the front row and just keeps saying "This isn't funny!" over and over, ask her politely to shut her gap-toothed yap. The folks on stage will thank you. I promise.
* Is there a rehab center that treats people with addictions to collecting Christmas songs? Because I don't really need a 24th version of Silent Night...but I will probably have one by the end of the holiday season. 858 songs in the Christmas mix should be enough for anyone. Someone stop me before I search iTunes again!
Okay, that's all I've got. Y'all have a great weekend!
