Love, in just 3 installments
3 things I love today (which may or may not be the case tomorrow):
1. Old school animal crackers and Diet Dr. Pepper (I just tried to spell out the Doctor in Dr. Pepper but clearly, it didn't look right):
These aren't the fancier step-below-wedding-cake variety with pink icing and pinhead shaped sprinkles (although, those are nice too). These are the classically dry variety in vague shapes of animals where at times, it looks like they're wearing brown shoes from the process of baking. It's pure ecstasy for me when I wash them down with the "fat boy's" Dr. Pepper. I'm telling you, it should be marketed in paste form at Everything's a Dollar.
2. The Human League: Live at the Dome
I'll be reviewing this DVD for a near future issue of Playback and when I received this last night (and took it off my Amazon Wish List). Not only was this show filmed with such high quality but the extra features like the extensive interview and behind the scenes footage (even though it showed a bit too much of their free standing keyboardist that looks a quarter Nikki Sixx and three-quarters Winona Ryder).
Let's face it. The Human League are the Three's Company of Synth-pop. Only Susan Anne Sulley isn't a complete bitch like Suzanne Somers was around 25 years ago. Susan Anne Sulley is the type of hot-like-fire lady that if she lost her dress on stage (which nearly happened in St. Louis--I caught more than one glimpse of her white lace knickers that evening), she would say to herself, "Oi, I'm naked. Ah well, pressing on..."
3. E-mail exchange with my Mom:
Mama gusgus strikes again and work-wife Sue is still laughing at the blind copies I continue to send to her in my responses.
Mama gusgus: "Are you there? MOM"
Saintly Me: "Yes I am. CORY"
Mama gusgus: "I need to know the model, year, mileage, cd player?, when new tires, battery of your car. Did you check the transmission fluid? Bob's motors have some possibilities. Let me know."
Saintly Me: "95, Pontiac Grand Am, 125,xxx, tires aren't even a year old, Never had to replace the battery, AM/FM cassette (which would be okay for me). Yes, I checked the transmission fluid and it's still pink as it should be."
Mama gusgus: "I talked to Bob this morning and he has some cars that would suit the bill, I told him NO DODGE, they have 7 car lots and lots of possibilities. He said there is a need for a car like your with high schools kids might get more than you think."
Saintly Me: "I think something with efficient gas mileage is a good idea."
Mama gusgus: "Yes I think that is an excellent idea, he said he has a Mazda Protigue in good condition. I don't know if I told you Scott totaled Brenda Sunfire hitting that deer Monday. So they are looking again also." *Protigue. That's hot.*
Saintly Me: "Will we be able to browse these on Monday? Yes, you informed me of Scott's misfortune. By the way, I think I can do that housesitting job for you on 9/30 to 10/2. Can I bring a friend with me?"
Mama gusgus: *Prepare yourselves.* "Yes you could bring a friend if we hadn't decided not to go, with the price of gas its just not worth the effort. Bob knows you coming down and he will have available on Tues. we including you are inviting to Kims on Sunday for BBQ, she said if I talked to you to tell you." *Should I ask why? Or just laugh? How about both?*
Saintly Me: "Can you try sending that same message to me again, but this time in a language I can understand?"
Mama gusgus: "Mercy, I must have had a senior freeze. We are not going to the Lake, because of gas prices. Thanks anyway and yes you could have brought a friend. You are invited to Kims for a BBQ on Sunday, she said to tell you if I talked to you. Bob just called with a 1998 S-10 pickup, 4 cylinder, good condition, pewter in color. Interested?" *What the hell is a senior freeze?*
Apparently, my mom has been taking Asian Mother Emailing for your Offspring 101.
Three things I hate today is forthcoming. Of course, it might be three things I hate (tomorrow) today.
