Hey lookee there. The calendar says it's Monday. Man, I know there was something I'm supposed to do on Mondays, but I can't recall what it is. I hate getting old. Feed the dogs? Did that. Get the kid to school? Did that. Go to meeting at school? Did that, too. Hmmm...I wish I could remember. Oh, I wonder what's going on over at the blog today...
Crap. My day to post. Not like I've been doing this very long. It's easy to see how I could forget, right? Only been like four years. Whatever.
So here is my post - I burned my hand on the lawnmower this weekend. I now have an ugly, hideous, gross blister on the side of my index finger and it keeps oozing and oozing and stinging and stinging. Awesome, right? I would take a picture of it but I don't feel like it. So you'll just have to draw up your own mental image. And after I burned it, I had to go play tennis and, uh, it sorta popped and, uh, well this is getting uncomfortable.
Tell us the dumbest thing you did this weekend.

When I was 16, I loved Maria McKee. Now that I'm 39...I still heart her. XOXO.
Lone Justice never ever ever got the audience they deserved. I loved Ways to be Wicked more than this song, but overall this CD kicks ass hands down.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
This weekend was relatively dumb thing free for a change...

This happened last week, but is so stupid that the stupidity carries over to this weekend: I bought a gigantic Toyota Tundra pickup about three weeks ago and traded in my tiny Honda Civic Hybrid. Went to the hardware store and parked in a part of the parking lot I never park in due to the size of the pickup (I used to park the Honda right in front because it could whip into these really small parking spots by the front door). I go in and get my supplies, pay and walk out the door, pushing the unlock button on my key fob. i get to the door of the Honda and am getting really pissed off that the door wont unlock. I pulled on the door handle- nothing. pushed the unlock button a few more times, only to realize that the key fob I have been pushing says Toyota, not Honda. The worst part of the whole deal was as I was doing this, the people that owned the car were standing behind me with a look of absolute horror on their faces.
What a Dumbass.

LOL, Mr. LGA. But why on earth would you trade in your environmentally friendly vehicle for a gas guzzler?
Dumb thing this weekend: I took my daughter and her friend to see FAME. Not even worth seeing on DVD, although we did go to the cheap matinee. But it was still dumb.

Great story, Mr. LGA. I once found a man desperately trying to start my car because it looked like his wife's. He was red-faced, allowing me to be gracious in return.
Stupid? Christ, Jeff, I got out of bed. Lately that's the dumbest goddamn thing I can do.

Karen, I tried to be nice to the environment....two whole years I tried....nothing....not even a thank you card....nothing! Just look at the Weather Channel for 8 minutes and tell me the environment isn't out to get us!
That and the fact that the truck is so ginormous that if a Panda ran out in front of it, I wouldn't even know.

Today, I was filling a cup with hot water for tea at the local Circle K. You know those coffee-making units that have the red lever-handle thing that you flip up to release hot water? All was well but then I got distracted thinking about the gagillion things I have to do today and stopped watching what I was doing.
I didn't realize that I'd moved the cup until the scalding water hit my fingers.
Thankfully, my skin did not blister. Can't say the same for the other people around me after I let loose with a few choice, pain-filled obscenities.

BBQ for dinner (after 8, no less) + serious Acid Reflux (bordering on ulcer) + forgot to take my meds yesterday = Holy shit I got no sleep and I feel like I swallowed, then puked up, Liquid Plumbr.
Someone kill me and substitue a smart person so my wife won't have to have children as brainless as me. In fact, give her someone in better shape and handsome...she deserves it.
:D

I've always liked that gal's singing. I remember looking up her more recent stuff a handful of years ago. Allmusic.com is a wonderful thing.
