Spot Coffee made today cloudyI was tending to my sick son last night at my place last night so his mom could get to a meeting. While puttering around the apartment, I noticed the dearth of breakfast stuffs, so I figure no problem, I'll get up early and head to spot.
I arrive at spot this morning at 7, time for a mike and a house blend (my personal favorite). I got half an hour before I have to get into work. They aren't real busy. Only one other guy in the pace is eating. I get my coffee and an artvoice and have a seat. 10 minutes go by, no big deal really. 20 minutes go by. All's quiet in the kitchen. The Fuck!! I stroll over to the counter and the woman behind the counter is doing many things, none of which have any thing related to food prep.
"You had the Mike, didn't you?"
I'm thinking, I was hoping to have the Mike, but contained myself into uttering "and you haven't started it yet?"
"I'm really sorry, I've got a million things going on here"
None of them apparently involved cooking.
Not that big a deal, I couldn't wait any longer as the boss likes it when I show up on time. But when a favorite place lets you down it can color your whole day.
I'm going to be doing mental spin control all day. I can feel it.
Keep Passing the open window, ya'all

Ooh stuff like that pisses me off...
I probably would have gotten pissy and muttered something like "well forget it cancel my order I can't wait any longer I'll be late for work" and left in a huff. (my temper comes out once in a while)... And yeah, it would make me cranky for at least the morning, if not the whole day. I hope they at least gave your money back...

Hotel SchmotelSorry, needed to get the St. Patrick's crap off the top of my journal
It's been a tough month this week if you know what I mean, and I think you do. I got this in the mail and it made me laugh (I'm immature).
Enjoy
Nurse Nancy
Two doctors are in the hallway complaining about nurse Nancy.
''She's out of control!'' the first doctor says. ''She does everything backwards. Just last week I told her to give a man two milligrams of morphine every ten hours, she gave him 10 milligrams every two hours, he alomost died!''
''That's nothing,'' said the second doctor, "earlier this week I told her to give a man an enema every 24 hours, she tried to give him 24 enemas in one hour!''
All of a sudden they heard a blood curldling scream from down the hallway.
''OH MY GOD! I just realized that I told nurse Nancy to prick Mr. Smiths boil!'''

Happy Post St. Patricks DayI'm getting old. A really long day on Thursday wrecked me for anything yesterday beyond a couple quiet pints at my humble abode. A few advil later, I'm feeling reasonably back to my old self. My arena duties during the hockey game made me wish I had my 42 year old knowledge back in my 25 year old body. I can stil do the same stuff, it just catches up to me the next day.
See ya'all at the parade

Funny. But that is How Bush Really thinks.
Propaganda lives on!
