sometimes no sooner than you think about someone they then just appear

Can this post continue for days to come? how about the rest of the week???
I thought the 100th post would be something profound - overflowing with deep, self explanation & exposure of southernyankee. oh well. there goes a bright idea.
I won't complain too much, except I have an early curfew: Yes boys and girls the night owl must retire by 10pm (last night it was 9pm) Adjusting to morning rush hour sucks! Boy do I miss those days of going into work @ noon (& hung over on most of them!)
No siree, can't pull that off here (at least not yet) j/k
super sleepy am I. no time to unpack today - time to crash. bundle up Buffalo - I dedicate to you"Baby It's Cold Outside" by Rod Stewart feat Dolly Parton from the new album Stardust, The Great American Song Book Vol III (even though I like some of the other versions better)

I hope everyone is still around to fight against the crazy local govt. there+. No public libraries? Buffalo doesn't need access to books -just more bars!!! It will be the new locale for breeding illiterate hooligans who could challenge capt. morgan any day! It's really a shame that things have progressed this bad.

I watched my local town board meeting on tv here & one of the citizens' biggest complaint was to ensure the city govt had some say so in what color to paint "Grandmas Cottage" - he went on to say that it should not be painted chartreuse,hot pink or any other color that would signify same sex partners(not the term he used).... WTF? since when does the color of your house send out batman like signals that you like the same sex or anything other than your lack of coordination of color scheme? I love chartreuse and hot pink! I personally like the opposite sex(on a good day that is...) but what the heck does that have to do with anything. same dude thought it appropriate to wear a slogan t-shirt to this public hearings (anti-abortion it read in so many words) - whatever. this isn't said to open a can of arguments on the site based on which side of the fence you vote on or where your moral values fall between the red/blue lines but the point being made (all while I fall asleep) is that I felt he represented so many more Americans and how they feel that they are right (right up the ally of the pres) in what they believe in and that laws should be enacted to protect his feelings/opinions.
Laws should be there to protect us from danger, etc but not from our neighbors way of life that in no way infringes on my life;

personally can't stand hate. Hate for the things that you cannot change about yourself or others. I sat next to a man on the long train ride home and could feel his levels of discomfort rise...
get over it. we live in a world where people are from different cultures, have different ideas, practice different religions, and so forth...

you were born into this world the way you are for a reason. if we had control over how/who/what we are - I wonder how that would turn out? I really think we would be the same way in a lot of ways (maybe a little different - I doubt anyone would pick the option to be a slave)


I have totally digressed in a major way and its waaaaaaaaaay past night night time. sorry for going off on a obscure tangent. later

i feel horrible. i saw some advil in the kitchen. i need it. just getting in a little while ago. Had Mega FUN last night - my last night living in Buffalo spent with the peeps!

not so fun was when I got in the car this morning it was ravished! someone had been in it and went through the glove compartment and all...

I don't keep much in there but I had an old cd player and tape adapter. they took that. losers. its so wrong to steal and take whats not yours!!!

Wow, what a wonderful evening @ the (e:estriphouse)! The peeps represented in full costume. ps. DR. Chlorine wants the community to know that he and (e:Rachel) are just friends. However, he says, if she were to wear eyeliner and perfume she would be all his...

so anyway, speaking of Dr. Chlorine came dressed as Darth Vader, Jim came as Charlie Chapin, (e:) Mike came as Captain Planet, (e:) Jill came as Margot from the royal tenenbaums, (e:Tina) and (e:) lilho came as Brit Pop Chics (but I told them they look like escape convicts from a hot lesbian women's fashion prison instituion!)(e:Rachel) came as a satanic catholic school girl from another realm; (e:Trisha) came glammed out as always & accompanied by hubby (e:paulnotpaul). and then there was (e:) Springfaerie all glittery with big beautiful wings that were purplesque! oh and there were others too, like Juan Valdez, the coffee man & then (e:) southernyankee (me) came as temptation with a capital T as described by (e:Dr). Chlorine (you know how that goes) I really looked like Minnie Mouse with little devilish horns, apparently I cannot be as evil as the package looked!!!

There was even a haunted house tour (Josh provided the scare simulation)

Captain planet has returned to his normal look. (e:Mike)!


Before I arrived, I stopped by my neighbors party and Melissa was oh so fabulous!!!
decked out as a cutey queen witch

check out the pics (soon to come) ((courtesy of (e:Tina) and (e:Dr).Chlorine))

lots of fun was had by all...of course loads of dancing!!!
I will totally miss seeing everyone and having a good time in life with you on a regular basis. but there are always visits!
I don't know what I am still doing up. drinking champagne and all when I have loads to do... I have never drank champagne out of a smirnoff bottle - how crazy is that. you know the party is crunk at that point!

I have a headache now. I need to nap for four hours.

The next few days will be off the charts nonstop!!!!!!!!!!
I need to be up by seven thirty or so... I had to spell out sevemthirty since I don't know where the nuimbers are right now. two many chocolatini's courtesy of (e:Paul).

oh and the magna fun part was the greatest gift ever!!!!!!!!
A chronicle collection of Barbra Streisand Music given by (e:Matthew).
I LOVE IT!!!!!! You have no idea how much pleasure this will bring me... YAY!!!!!!
I LOVE HER!!!!!!!

no more friday mornings. no more crazy involvement. no more BigBee.
I feel the devil lifted off my shoulder!!! Who would have thought it would have gone this far? well, I guess everyone knew so no thinking necessary. I didn't. whatever. spare the details. its over.
i can progress now and not continue to drag around a dead baby - yea~~~ ole!

i just watched the garbage truck digest the futon.
"mmmmmm... me want trash!" said the truck

(e:Paul), this is strange [inlink]paul,2317[/inlink] who knew coffee was oh sooo evil.....
well, maybe it is 8*

hmmm,
my commute to work
will now be an hour & 10 minutes.
how fun is that? 8*
walk across arlington blvd
catch a bus to a train station
or bike to a train station (which means
I need a decent bike lock)
train it to the metro center station
to transfer to the red to arrive @
Union Station 25 minutes late for work
Thats a good foot to start on isn't it?


This early rising stuff is crazy.
I never thought I would miss it...
So now, I have to leave @ 6:45am
and return home @ 5:30pm
Thats a long a** day!!!

Sounds like I need to invest in a
better coffee brewer/no time to grab
an $2.00 cup a day along the way !

. I thoroughly enjoyed my evening on the town with (e:PMT) sunday evening!!!
I had dreams about those dancing dudes(the less naughty kind). I dreamt they went to school to learn what they do and there were a couple of other people I know from the elmwood way secretly enrolled in the same classes. Why I was there I do not know.
I still don't know what I think of them...It was interesting nonetheless. For some reason I couldn't bring myself to "get to know them better"... Perhaps there is still some prudishness left in me...hmmm, well, ok.
I still had fun because I got to spend time with the guys on the town before I head out. Thank you Guys!!! I had a blast. I too paid for it yesterday as I was exhausted and made a few oopsie daisies (correctable ones) but still...

So today is my last day @ the old grind mill in cheektowaga - gonna trade it for another less taxing one (at least I hope). Whoo Hoooo!!!
I must say that I will miss the carpooling with (e:Terry) and the fact that we go into work in the afternoon and the "stuff yourself like a fat turkeypig" lunches we buy everyday and the"peeling out of the parking lot race" just to make it to the square on thursdays and a of course the stickybun coffee that I indulge in from time to time @ the local Crafts by Fran Shop in the office park.

Things that I won't miss:
1) Grumpy Co-workers
2) Stretch Pants
3) The PHONE!!!
4) Stupid Rules that are made to run circles around your mind
5) FURLOUGHS (well/eh... I will want it come 2 months down the road-hee hee hee)
6) Slightly Crappy pay for work performed
7) Cheektowaga
8) IRS Training classes
9) did I mention "Stretch pants"?
10) oh yeah, the crazies !!! "You will Feel the Wrath!"
11) undefined rules and regulations that govern the work performed upon which you are evaluated on... "Good Interpretation worker #267u89r08a*go1343ob9654e8787r!"
oh no, I have gone over the the limit for TOP TEN!!!

Just had wonderful sushi dinner at the Crispy Roll - Yuuummy! Now I am working on some sexual healing in a glass!!! Matt just went to the potty and he said it was bad--smelled like wet dog(eww) I like nice potty rooms-this is a cool martini bar where we are right now. There is a fireplace, preet light chandelier like things, a stained glasss window with an owl and swayed curtains draped everywhere, happenin' trance music - very ambient! Now we are working on our second martinils. I ordered an Esotterica for round 2.catch u on the next post
