3 to 1

So I've been messing with this one for a while. I tried to make it into a 3-panel, but couldn't figure out what to do with the first one and hated how the second one came out. So, it's just the punchline. The joke was I told J that she has to die when I do because I'll be bored by myself and she needs to come along to keep me entertained. I wish there was some other way, but I really don't see any way around this. Unless of course I just NEVER die.

Week's Worth

For once I actually had something worth documenting, but I never got around to it. So instead of many interesting readings, a summary of the past week is all that I've got time for.

Last Sunday (or maybe last, last Sunday) we went to the flea market in downtown. It was really interesting. There were people of all kinds, goods most likely stolen from all places, and slightly overpriced but really delicious mexican foods. Sadly I missed out on the Polish Lady's sausage booth, but the Sweet Rice Milk I had made up for it.

The great RJ died and I swore up a storm at work when I found out. I know he hasn't finished the last book in the series. At first I was extremely pissed off and dropping F-bombs every 5 seconds, but then realized I would have done the same thing. Someone HAS to finish this book, and if the finale blows royally then the blame is shifted to whoever wrote it and heads will shake while saying "if only RJ were alive. He would have written the best ending ever..." I think the anticipation bar has been set so high for this final book, he knew he couldn't do the best job in such a short time frame.

I bought new shoes!!!

I was off of school!!!

I finally sold the extra tv that has been on the floor for the past 4 months and FINALLY got some friggin HOUSE pictures up. GO LOOK! GO LOOK! There's more on the flickr page, but here's just a few tiny ones.

To Be Trendy

I am not a fan of shopping for clothes. I'm baffled by those that enjoy it and am irked to all hell by people like The Man who can measure a pair of pants from elbow to palm and KNOW that they will fit and look great. Jerk.

Anyway, I'm in want of new shoes and thought I would take a new approach at the task. I thought it best to do all my browsing from my computer and then if/when I find something I like I can actually go to that store and pay for it and save my self the time and shipping fees. The point is that I LOVE the Internet and the goofy crap you can find.

I'm not quite sure how enthusiastic everyone else may be about the new style in mens' shoes, but I think it's about time... Or it's an honest mistake that the web-master just didn't catch. NOPE!!! We are now advertizing this stylish tweed shoe as a trend. So I'm thinking that this is probably some kind of style name...I really have no idea. But it's just too funny to read about the menswear shoe with "sexy peep toe and covered vamp buttons." But do we really need women's shoes to be called menswear? I mean, I can see it in the eighties when women started wearing the shoulder pads to have a more masculine presence in the conference room. Maybe I'll start a line of ballerina slippers with the brand name of Dude's Foot. It's kinda catchy...no?

Overdrive

We keep finding more and more projects for ourselves. Let's change this, and move that, and switch this stuff around. And there's the list of all the things we want to buy. Having a new place you actually care about decorating and fixing up is fun, but it's also really wearing me out. Work is wearing me out too. We're short a person so everyone is doing more than their usual fair share. I think so far we're doing ok, but if we don't get a new person soon, we may just kill eachother. We've all gotten kinda snappy at times, but so far we've been quick to apologize and no one takes it too personally because we're all under the same stress with no where to put it. I'll be having some nice paychecks though. Some days I've been able to drag myself in 30 minutes early and I exclude myself from answering the phones when I stay an extra 30 minutes later. I can't wait until we hire New Person and they are settled enough for me to give them at least half of what I took from old New Person. I'm ready for this crazy wave to be over!
