Monday's Missives

• I once saw somebody with the name Corvette. 
• Parenting pro tip: give your child a name that if against all your good efforts- they still go into stripping or otherwise selling their body-they cannot blame you when they have to give up as they can't figure out a good stripper or street name.
• PS: trust them to develop a good personality without having a name you consider to be cool and that they will never hear the end of for the rest of their life.

  

  My neighbor left her keys in the door one night.

• It is 0513 on 05/18/2017 and there is not one single caffeinated beverage in my place.
• It is very difficult for me go to sleep if I am hungry. Also, if I eat a small amount prior to bed to not be hungry I will very often awaken starving in the middle of night.
• Recently a friend sent me a picture of herself from near the Hollywood sign.

  

  Today's (05/19/2017) volunteer to be the sheet covered corpse in the middle of the road.
• My shoulder is toast. Just testing it yesterday for range of motion and crepitation has me in so much pain- it is part of the reason I awoke at 4 o'clock this morning.
• That and being super hungry.
• A friend has cancer of the esophagus and has recently been told he is a poor candidate for surgery as he would be unlikely to survive it.
• Kevin's shoulder hurts and he is hungry.

Monday's Missives

• My nursing buddy asked me to walk out with her as she left for lunch to save her space by parking my truck sideways where we parked adjacent to each other this morning, then she wanted me to come out when she returned and move so she had her space back.
• Crazy.
• Today is Wednesday but I awoke thinking it was Thursday and I only had to plow through one more day before a much needed break.
• Bad.
• At lunch I discovered I had accidentally bought alphabet vegetable soup. That made my day! I mean yay! Alphabet soup, sharp cheddar cheese and Ritz crackers- a combo made in heaven!
• Good.
• Reading the directions which recommended 2 to 3 minutes I set the microwave for 2.5 minutes. I returned 3.5 minutes later to find my soup had exploded all over the interior of the 'wave. It looked like a crime scene from a psychotic version of a Veggie Tales movie. I spent 15 minutes cleaning the mess up.
• Awful.
• Lunch then consisted of half a pound of cheddar cheese and Ritz crackers washed down with my tears.
• Pathetic.

Sense:

This picture doesn't make any.

When I was in high school a group of miscreants dropped by my house and told me they were going to go to Mexico. I said, I can't go, I've got to go to school tomorrow.

They called me a faggot and left.

They made it as far as Galveston and ran out of money.

They then stole some stuff for gas money to get back to Decatur.

Of the four- two are dead, one is in prison and the other I have no idea.

Update: The fourth I have learned from the word on the street is a diesel mechanic and is supposedly doing well in the world. The last time I saw him was in a Chucky Cheese for a nephews birthday party. He was coincidentally there  and with a woman I knew to not be the wife I knew about before. They oddly stood around for a few minutes watching people play then they left.

Popeye

Popeye is another famous one eyed person. He lost his eye in a fight-as he said,"The mos' artful fight of me life" His signature lines are,"I yam what I yam." and "That's all I can stands, cuz I can't stands n'more!"-the man has a way with words. There is a statue erected in his honor in Crystal City Texas the spinach capitol of the world. He's been around for 75 years and as tough as he his and with his work ethic he'll be around a long while to come.
