As the crap turns

Thought I would update those of you that can't look away from the traincrash that is my life. Work is good. Exhausting. Fired a little asshole yesterday. That was not nice. Kids are good. #1 and borrowed girl work at the mall. They work at 2 of the same stores and then BG works at another one. Anyway, on Thanksgiving night they went into one store at 1130 and worked until 830 the next morning, then BG went to her other job from 9-3 and then the both went to the last job from 33-midnight. I was not happy, especially when I realized they both had to be at work this am at 10. But they have survived and will have a nice paycheck (time and a half for 18 hours of work for #1 and 24 for BG. :) As for the ASSHOLE. He took the skank AND her 18 year old daughter up to Michigan to see the grandparents. Didn't even bother to ask his own kids if they wanted to see their beloved great grandmother. He should burn in hell. But not before 10000 locusts infest his personal bits.

Greetings Programs - I'm totally procrastinating right now. The five page paper this time is for the history of the English Language. It's not the twenty fifth hour just yet. But I have deadlines people. Thursday night, the family, cousins, aunts, uncles and I watched the BDM on an HD wall mounted plasma screen (not mine, my aunt's/uncle's). For some reason the intensity, violence, and gore all came to the forefront. The humor seemed quite understated, almost not even registering on this viewing. Still, the family all loved it. Today I watched "Bushwacked" for old time sake. I love that episode. I'd give it a higher than 8 rating. Anyway, you browncoats take it easy. I'm gonna sip up the caffiene. yum yum. SS

I went to Burger King today for some chicken sandwiches. I had a two for one coupon. I heard "Rain Song" on the radio and remembered all the conversations I had with old friends about Houses of the Holy being at least one of the better Zeppelin albums, if not the best. It definitely had one of my favorite song sequences in it. I thought about how great the weather had been for the Thanksgiving weekend, and how this next week is supposed to be all grey and rainy again. Robert Plant crooned and wailed as I drove by the newspaper office, the in-patient hospital, the Blockbuster, the real estate office and the army recruiting office. The line was short in the drive thru. David Surrette came on the radio playing his Irish folk tunes. I thought about standing on a green hill and watching Serenity fly away into the clouds and beyond the atmostphere. On the way back I drove cautiously behind a drunk driver in a Corrola who couldn't stay in his lane. I got home, put in "Bushwacked" and ate like a king. I'm not a healthy eater by any means.

Ever since I've become a 'Verse-obsessed Browncoat, my wife, a fan of nothing sci-fi, has politely put up with the time and money expenditures (since she's an English teacher, it's easy to get away with books...) but she's had no interest in watching FF or the BDM. Today she was out running errands with her mom (we're all heading off to NYC next week for a few days and need warm gear the likes you can't often find easily in central/south Florida) and I popped in the FF DVDs. Anyway, she came home shortly near the end of "Serenity" and asked me if I was watching what she thought I was watching, since I caught almost every showing of the BDM on HBO lately, and I said no, I'm watching the actual series, and started up the Train Job episode before she realized it was a DVD that could easily be switched off. We're eating dinner when I happen to notice her watching the show...glancing at first, and then actually watching it...laughing when Jayne goes down from the dope Simon gave him, gasping when Crow met the engine, and laughing again when Mal explains his POV to Niska Henchman #2. Seizing on the opportunity, I play Bushwacked as well, and she starts asking questions...I tell her about Kaylee and Simon, Simon and River, Wash and Zoe ("they're married? That'd never happen," she says) And that's where we left off...but with a 25 hour train ride to NYC in the immediate future, and me controlling the portable DVD player, guess what I'll be having a marathon of :)

Real Life...

...blows goats. We're withdrawing from the house sale. We got our survey back. Words like 'damp' and 'woodworm'. Of course, the first words out of my mouth were 'We nearly paid money for this? On purpose?' Guess the previous folks didn't do a good enough survey themselves and now they've got themselves stuck with a money pit. Luckily husband is a 'belt'n'braces' type who insisted on an in-depth survey. So, I guess that means I'm stuck in a small house with inadequate dial-up and a desk in the hallway for the forseeable. Go-se. Still, it means I can unpack some of my books and settle down to some quality weirdfic. The last chapter has been a pig. But big thanks to ArtemisPrime, who bullied me gently but unmercifully until I pulled my finger out. :biggrin: I'm too paranoid to have a beta, but I did bounce a few ideas around, and I know where I'm going (but I don't know where I've been, and I know what I'm knowing...sorry, channeling David Byrne for a second there). I've said it before, I'm going to keep going until forcibly stopped here. My errant muse has been bundled back on a plane and returned (thanks StinkingRose:biggrin: ) so I guess i better get cracking, as it were. You ain't read nothin' yet. It's cough medicine season. Let crackfic abound!
