(2) vignettes
(A) A squirel chewed a hole in one of the screens in my kitchen and ate some hamburger buns and a loaf of bread. I was freaked at first because I didn't see the animal, and thought it was a rat that had got in and eaten stuff up.
Then later that day I caught the squirel back in my kitchen. I told him to get the hell out and he did pretty fast.
Squirells don't react to profanity as fast as say, librarians do.

(B) Last night we were hanging around my truck and at least a few people threw empty beer cans in the back. I got up this morning and went to take them out but someone had allready beaten me to the task, as there were none in the back. Someone had already yanked them.
Sometimes I get woken up by people going through our garbage to get bottles/cans becuase its right outside my bedroom window.

mea culpa OR give kookcity advice
I need advice


Some of my college friends recently got married.
Long story short, I overdrew my bank account at dude's bachelor party (strippers, 'cleanup' fee on limo, etc) and did not buy them a wedding present.


I feel bad about it, becuase it was a damn low thing to do.
And I know they know, that they knew when I shook his hand and hugged her at the reception.

Now I want to make sure everything is on the up and up, but I'm not sure what an appropriate gift/action is.


Any ideas? I saw a really cool motorbike with a sidecar for sale the other day down by Klienhan's.

That probably would make the situation worse though.

I didn't know about the year thing! thats awesome. Sometimes I hate gift giving when it is so forced!

yeah... you have a year. Don't worry about it. I mean I wouldn't take the whole year, but I'd say a month or so is totally forgivable.
mrdt - 07/17/06 22:36
I think you have a year from the date of the reception to send them something.

Thesis topic: Teaches of Peaches
Toronto was fun.
Metric was good.



Today I mostly ate popsicles.






I was reading my prior post(#30) and it struck me as funny because there was no Plutonium in the 1920's. (Plutonium is pretty much manmade)

Maybe there was some geological rarities, but whatever Plutonium there may have been, it sure as hell wasn't connected to a buttton, or an ego for that matter.

early
today is my day to go into work early

Sometimes I hate that but sometimes I get enormous clarity of vision being up early.


So I"ll skip out of work early as well, come home, short nap, and go play rock/roll for a few hours.



I think its still a full moon and as you come up over the skyway, the reflection on the lake is somethin else.




PS: it just occurred to me that we live in really crazy times. Like the roaring 20's, only with half the whimsy and twice the plutonium.
