I froze my balls off today........ actually they were pretty warm thanks to my new overalls, but I froze most everything else.

Winter is looming.

A wise man plans ahead.

So being an electrician I am obliged to keep myself warm with this seasons finest fashions.

My very own pair of lined bib overalls! Add some thermal underware................................. and who could resist the dashing look of a fine young tradesman sporting the latest in hard hat liner fashion?

Listen up, maggots. You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else.

Got back last night after spending a few days outside San Antonio for Thanksgiving.
Had a great time. Unfortunately the much anticipated Thanksgiving football game never quite took off. Ended up throwing a baseball around with a few other guys. Eventually someone produced a baseball bat(more like a t-ball bat) and we then took turns hitting it. After having a six-pack on an empty stomach and when using an undersized bat, a baseball can be surprisingly hard to hit. I looked more like I was trying to fight off bees.
Thanks to Tim and co. we were all entertained to a pre-dinner home made explosives show. Dinner was great other than the fact that I came under a terrible allergy attack, it seems that anytime I take more than 2 days off work I get sick with something.
Spent the next day with my parents at Lake Medina playing mini-golf and feeding the hundreds of almost tame deer(Kylie calls them "bambis"}that roam the park.
Now I'm home to face the piles of dirty laundry, unmade beds, and dirty bathrooms that I had left in the hurry to get to Thanksgiving dinner.

I've decided that I would try to change the way I blog from a few random posts a month to more of a daily entry. Everyone, including myself , tends to excuse their lack of posting as "I just don't have time" or " I'm bored of my blog" but we all actually have 5 minutes a day to write something down. Anyway.....We'll see how this goes. I personally have a whole half-day to myself right now, as I did some lobbying at work and convinced the majority of the crew that they deserved to take the rest of the day being that it is the day before Thanksgiving. So, being in a union does have it's perks...
Tomorrow I'll take the kids to San Antonio to spend Thanksgiving with family and friends. I'm supposed to bring pie and alcohol(Heh). I figured if I get some good liquor it won't matter what kind of pie I bring. I might try and get a good ol' fashion Thanksgiving football game going.
Happy Thanksgiving to all family and friends who won't be there. You will be missed.

20 Flight Rock

For some reason I'm not sure why,I started singing Eddie Cochran's 20 Flight Rock at work today. Half-way through I suddenly got the premise of the song. Basically a guy has a girlfriend who lives in a high rise and he really wants to screw but the elevator is broken so he has to climb 20 stories to "get some". When he finally reaches the 20th floor he's too tired to "do the nasty". I'm sure it's evident to most of you, but I've been singing this song as long as I can remember. It was always just a fun song. I never really thought about it before. Then I remembered performing it with my brothers and sisters at old folks homes while my dad accompanied us on the guitar....... Shame on you old man!

Sometimes.....

......you just don't want to get back on.

Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will.
I sure could use a vacation from this

Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks

Fret for your figure and
Fret for your latte and
Fret for your hairpiece and
Fret for your lawsuit and
Fret for your prozac and
Fret for your pilot and
Fret for your contract and
Fret for your car.

Some say a comet will fall from the sky.
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still.
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits.

Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will
I sure could use a vacation from this

Silly shit, stupid shit...

One great big festering neon distraction,
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied.
