Squirll About Town

for now on. i just plan to have crazy hair.

give a transiant a wheel chair day.
now this program would be awsome if those who needed wheel chairs and couldent aford one got one for free. But no. this program gives wheel chairs to activly mobile transiants. in those wheel chairs they could push a buddy who wasen't as mobile, but no. its for carrying things. like tools you found in the dumpsters and your large collection of plastic bags.

hurry. its first come first served, chairs for the handicapped are limited.

I don’t know if it is that I am always looking about for odd things, or that odd things happen when I’m near by… but this morning, while driving to work I saw a man with a Bichon Frise.

dog
Now this isn’t odd for my neighborhood to see these types dogs out and about. But when the dog is with a ‘homeless/transient’ looking man, I become concerned. So like any good minded citizen. I get my coffee and then call the police (non-emergency number).

This is a remembrance of my phone conversation…. “about 10 min ago, I saw what looked like a homeless/transient man with a dog that didn’t seem to be his, he was holding it by the nape of the neck while walking it across 1st street…why do you think that the dog wasn’t his?... It was a Bichon Frise…I’m not familiar with what that type of dog?…it looks like a poodle, white, more expensive than a poodle. And perfectly groomed…ok…well I just wanted to notify you incase the dog owner calls….Thank you.

Then I got to hear all the jokes from my co-workers!

Reflections on popethings

These are just a few things that have been discussed in the past week or two after j.p.II's passing...*

-are they going to retire the pope mobile?
-"I lost the office pope pool...god damn it..."
-his name sounds like it 'could' be Jewish...maybe he is actually Jewish and isn’t telling anyone till he gets himself into the highest position in the Catholic Church.... hummm..."
-very controversial. Just like national elections!
-he doesn’t look as cute as the old pope..
-pope-tourage - the pope's entourage
-input pope mobile into any rap song. Quite funny
Actually any pope reference in any rap song. funny
-hee, hee! The boss just cursed when he heard about the pope (he's a
Catholic) and now he's in a bad mood
-pope and circumstances! or pope and circumcisions.
sorry...
-the Vatican gift shop... do you think they are having a sale now to clear out merchandise?
-do you think there will be more kids named benedict?
-I sooooooooo want popeonaropesoap
-he's not German, he's Bavarian.....it just means he can climb mountains
-if he didn't want to be a part of the Hitler youth, he could of found an out....Maria and the Von Trapps did.

*these weren’t all my doing, I had lots of help. I'm just the keeper of pope type things online for myself and friends. Hope you enjoyed. I don't mean to offend.

from the new york times...
"Simply defined a man date is two heterosexual men socializing without the crutch of business or sports. It is two guys meeting for the kind of outing a straight man might reasonably arrange with a woman. Dining together across a table without the aid of a television is a man date; eating at a bar is not. Taking a walk in the park together is a man date; going for a jog is not. Attending the movie "Friday Night Lights" is a man date, but going to see the Jets play is definitely not"

the article

so all of you that know me, get to hear my hillarious tales about the crazyness of working one night a week on the largest gaming ship on the west coast of florida...

from funny stories of drunken guests, to 5'2" sara working as a security guard (watch out) and domestic disputes that typically end up with someone being arrested.
Here are the Big Stories. I'm not afraid of being dooced... they only pay me $8.50 and hour (that is after they fixed their acounting error that was overpaying me by $550 each paycheck)

ouch

what do you mean fire extinguisher?

Burn Tram Burn

what? I CAN'T HEAR YOU

By the time Wednesday rolls around, I'm uasually exausted from work and all the trials and tribulations from the week...so i drag myself 45 minutes to an hours across the bay and over the the north side of tampa during rushhour for my Irish dancing class. Yes, its a odd type of hobby, and yes, its "like riverdance". but it is such a stress releaver.... after starting the class with a good 10 min of non stop drills, enough jumping and pounding of the feet to make your shins shatter, I totally forget about construction details, dimension and layout plans, memos, and pavers. Plus.. I get to hang out with some of the best kids and teenagers in Tampa! and they keep me on my toes (litteraly) and are just plain FUN to be around! so then after an hour and a half, i drive myself back to st. pete....
Then miraculously thrusday morning I wake up, totally refreshed and ready for the day! ready for the weekend! but wait...its just thursday.

megan and myself.

maybe the wall did have a leak...
