Well, that was fun. Some doorknob on this floor went out for the day and left a chicken cooking in his oven. Next thing I know I have a hunky fireman banging on my door and telling me to evacuate the building, they got smoke and gas and whatnot coming from the guy's apartment.

At least I had the foresight to grab a coat on my way out. A lot of people didn't do that, they just ran out...and it was only 50 degrees outside, kind of chilly for peeps in t shirts, shorts and flip flops.

I never saw so many fire trucks, ambulances and police cars. You'd think we had a major incident...well I suppose we could have had, if the building had been damaged. Some guy walked out of the building and promptly lit up a cigarette, and about four people tackled his dumbass and grabbed the lit cig. He didn't even realize what was going on, he just did it out of habit.

The power and light people came and went around checking each apartment for gas leaks, then they let us back in.The fire alarms on each floor had been going off full tilt, then the fire department shut them off. I'll be damned if some jackwagon didn't pull the one on the corner by my apartment....he said he was "just testing"...fuck we just got it shut off and he pulls it again! I thought he would shit his pants, he had people yelling at him and cussing him out.

After about an hour we got all the alarms off and everyone got back into their apartments. I got back just in time to see the Packers win!

Hell of a way to wind up a Sunday afternoon.

If you work for the Burlington hosiery company, and your job is to run a stitch across the tops of the toes in pantyhose...would you be called a sock tucker?

If you work for the Swiss Colony, and your job is to soak the holiday cakes in rum....is your job title Cake Soaker?

If you work for Coca-Cola, and your job is to put the cases of coke in burlap sacks as they get loaded on the trucks for delivery....would you be a coke sacker?

Sock tucker, cake soaker, coke sacker. Hmmm.

My dad once asked his brother John why he drank his Coca-Cola through a straw and not just normally. An elderly Irishman simply stated:

"Well, John's a real coke sucker."

With the Irish accent, well, you get the idea. . . .

The whole Brett Favre sexting/pics scandal has annoyed the hell out of me. Aside from stirring up crap between my team, the Packers, and his Vikings....I have a question.

This thing supposedly happened in 2008. WHY is the woman just NOW getting around to telling us about it? If she was so damned upset/scared/shocked, why not speak up in 2008? TWO YEARS later we find out about this. If you have to wait two years to make a stink about something....well, it makes you wonder what went on there.

The press has addressed just about every angle of this story but this one. I want to know why it took two years for the woman to speak up. She have an agenda?

I think the man is an unqualified ass. He should have gone out with a little style, a little class. But NO he has to play around like he is indespensible, throw tantrums to get his way, and now this. I personally would not care if he dropped off the face of the earth. Any respect I had for the man is LONG gone

Of course she has an agenda. I think she realized that he's at a down swing in his career and that she wouldn't get as much money later so she's finally coming out now. She's a gold digger, plain and simple.

I had to make a run to the hardware store today. The compressor on the dry cleaning machine decided to die, so my bosses were taking the dead thing out (to give it a proper burial supposedly) and they found out they needed some bits they didn't have, so off I went with a list.

Parked in the lot and while I was sitting in my car getting my purse and list sorted, a car pulls in to the stall on my right and I see a couple get out, and in the car is this HUGE bulldog. I love these dogs, so I get out of the car and ask about the dog. The dog knew I was talking about him, his smushed-in face was pushed up against the window and his rear end was wiggling furiously. The couple lowered the windows more so I could pet him, and the big ol baby slobbered all over my hand and wiggled some more. I had a dog treat in my purse (never know when those will come in handy!) and asked if I could give it to him. Permission was given, and the dog practically inhaled the treat and part of my hand.

So, anyways, I went off into the store and soon came back with my goodies. The car with the dog was still there, and my new friend remembered me and woofed happily and wiggled all over as I reached through the window and scratched his head.

Then, a car pulled in to the stall to the right of the dog car. A couple got out, not paying attention to the fact that there was a very large dog in the car next to theirs, and for some reason the bulldog decided these were aliens and needed to be barked at. He immediatley bounded over to the other side of the car, stuck as much of his head out the open window as he could manage, and let loose with an earth-shattering "ROWF!"

The man jumped about three feet in the air and the woman took off in a sideways leap that pole vaulters would envy. I died laughing, and the dog waggled his butt happily.

That was the highlight of my day.

I had a day off work the other day, and while I was laying on the sofa trying to get my sciatic nerve to behave I had time to contemplate several things.

One: Now that Guiding Light and As The World Turns are off the air, there is CRAP on CBS daytime.

Two: The people in this building are annoying loud ass bastards in the daytime as well as at night.

Three: Around this time of year, I tend to wish I had some friends to hang out with. I never really had any, ever. When I was a young kid, I was too odd-looking to hang with the popular group, and not smart enough to hang with the nerds. So I formed my own little group of one, and plodded on.

Growing older, it was mostly my job situation that prohibited me from making very many friends. I tended to work odd hours, long hours, crazy shifts. Most of my friends had normal 9-5 jobs, and couldn't re-arrange their schedules to fit me in.

I even tried going to church more, on my one day off, to find a group there that I might fit into. The singles groups were all older, widowed ladies...and one guy! That wasn't gonna work. I tried going to groups of people my age, but who were married..and they were always talking about kids, and school, and whatnot, things that weren't relevant to me. Again, I was on the outside.

Same thing now with this job. People I knew long ago come to see me at work and want to hang out...well hell, after 11 hours at work I do NOT want to go to a bar. I want to go home and sit down. I usually start nodding off a little after 9 pm, yes I am an old fart!

I don't always get the blues...just when I think too much. Gotta stop that.

Just saw on the news that Barbara Billingsley has passed away. She will forever be remembered as June Cleaver from Leave it to Beaver, the lovely lady in the pearls and apron who looked after Ward, Wally and the Beaver.

And of course, fondly remembered by the legions of us who saw Airplane! and remember her as the lady who said"Oh stewardess....I speak jive."

RIP.

I finally caved and went and got the brace the doctor offered me earlier. At first I wasn't going to use it, I figured hey, it would hurt for a couple days, but then better. Well dang, it hurt really bad getting up and down..and trying to get off the toilet, well, that's something I'd rather not mention.

So, I called back and asked if I could still get the brace. Sure, sure, so I had to waddle back to the clinic and get all strapped up. WOW...what a difference THAT makes! Strapping it up really helps. I feel a lot better. I still waddle, but not as painfully.

At least I don't have to take the hard drugs. Tylenol does just fine.

Phew. It's a bitch being sick, I hate it.

Sick Day

Trust me to get some sort of weird injury just as we are getting really busy. Thursday afternoon I was rushing round as usual when I felt something in my right leg. A couple hours later it had developed into a searing pain starting in my butt and going all the way down to my ankle. I am familiar with this, my old sciatic nerve flaring up. It ain't fun, folks.

Boss sent me home early last night and there was no way I could get comfortable. It hurt to sit, it hurt to stand, lay down, anything. Getting up and down was murder. This one felt a bit worse than the rest, so I called my doctor and got in for x rays this morning (I took a sick day....there was no way I could stand up for 11 hours with this.)

I somehow managed to pull muscles in my right hip and thigh, very painful but not life threatening. Nothing really to do for it, but take pain pills and try to rest. I am alternating heating pad with cold pack and that seems to help.

I always seem to get some bizarre thing. Guess I just have to be more careful which way I'm turning after this!

When my first husband and I kived in Las Vegas, he was gone more than he was at home- and I was working at a german resturaunt on Paradise. One of the waitresses and I got to be good friends, and discovered we both had a love of singing, especially golden oldies like thi sone. We went out one night to the Flamingo hotel on Vegas Blvd., and the lounge act was a group that featured Sonny Turner, one of the many singers who sang with the PLatters. He heard us harmonizing with the vocals he was doing, invited us up on stage to join in, and we became recurring members of the group whenever they were in town.

It is one of the fondest memories I have of living in Las Vegas.

"Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bed post over night?

If your mother said don't chew it, would you swallow it in spite?

Would you wrap it round your tonsils,

And heave it left and right?

I was talking to a friend of mine in the UK, and I said I had seen a tabloid headline that said : "PRINCE CHARLES IS GAY...OFFICIAL".

He said "If I had to fuck that old horse he's married to, I'd go gay too."

They say living well is the best revenge. Today I found out that that is very true. I stopped at the pet store to get some seed and treats for my greedy flock, and who should I see roaming around in there but....my ex-husband.

Christ on a cracker. He was BALD and washed out looking. Just as I was trying to figure out how to get out of his line of sight, I was riveted in place as a woman sidled up next to him. She was about 5 feet tall and just as wide, wearing a house dress...and her hair still in curlers! On her feet..house slippers. EEEK.

He leaned over and gave her a kiss and said "Ready to go, honey?"

Geeesh. I was NEVER so happy to be single as I was at that moment. Every shitty thing that happened in our marriage..courtesy of his stupid ass...came flooding back. I thought, why the hell am I hiding....I wasn't the one who drained our savings and checking accounts, who sat on their ass all day and wouldn't work. I worked three jobs to support us in those days, till all the money was gone and then so was he.

I don't think he even saw me. He and his little woman left the store as I was checking out. I said to the young girl who served me, "See that guy?" and I pointed to my ex going out the door. She looked. "Yeah?" "I used to be married to that thing," I told her. She looked at me shocked. "Jesus," she said, and I nodded.

Exactly.
