brand new day

Whilst I'm trying to think of something funny to write for AFF...

Lol ...I generally avoid blogs with poetry in them like they had the plague; the ones who quote song lyrics are almost as bad, but as a general rule, I avoid both.

Yesterday though ...fuck all if I didn't have ee cummings stuck in my head!

to multiply because and why
dividing then from now
and adding and (i understand)
is hows to hump a cows

(over and over and over, just like a damned song will get stuck at times)

Of course, if I'm going to quote a poem like I did in my previous post ...I'll be goddamed if I'm going to quote cummings or someone well-known in his entirety; I'll pick the most obscure fucker I can think of! (revenge on the "norm" at least) I do have to admit that "how to hump a cows" is much more my speed though...

Dad is doing well so far ...yesterday he sure seemed a bit more like he had in the past. Goodness knows the last two weeks have sure been bad ones for him. I'm tickled with the welcome change though. Mom asked me if I was ready for a "Dad vacation" yet after all the time I've spent here so far. I just told her if it kept up like the previous two weeks regularly, then that might be the case ...but times like this week (and most "normal" ones), he didn't bother me in the least.

Mom said something that just about knocked me out of my chair this morning as she was getting ready to go to work, and I told her to TRY to have fun. She remarked that if she felt in the slightest bored, once she made it to the 4th floor, all of that would change in a hurry.

I shot back that what the heck was it that just because they gave you a paycheck every month, that they actually expected you to fix that sort of thing?!

Mom laughed and said that her main job description was to make her boss laugh. Every morning she stops by her office and tells a story or makes a comment that will get her boss laughing; she said as long as she can still keep doing THAT, then she figures her job will be safe against whatever.

That's my Mom! lol!

I haven't had a cigarette since Saturday ...but I still want one so fucking bad it hurts. No huge shock that my dizziness is way off the charts; Mom even remarked how bad I seemed (and she NEVER does that). Damned meds won't even touch this though ...so I guess I'm just miserable for a while.

crapola!
