Hodge Podge

It's Friday and I feel like playing in the shallow end of the pool today...no deep thoughts, no trying to unravel the mysteries of the Universe, no brain strain trying to come up with a meaningful post. Today, you'll get drivel. And you'll like it.

• Freakin' idiots who park on a 4 lane throughfare on my way to work should be pelted with olives.
  
  
• To the two students who cheated on our Art History quiz Wednesday night, I turned you in. And I don't feel bad about it.
  
  
• I asked my Magic 8 Ball if I would have a date for my friend John's wedding, it said "My reply is no." Stupid Magic 8 Ball.

• I also asked it if the Chiefs were going to beat the crap out of the Jets this weekend and it said "Outlook good." Smart Magic 8 Ball.

• I have a Mr. Potato Head on my desk, do you think he's lonely? Perhaps I should buy him a Mrs. Potato Head. Maybe then they'd make Tater Tots.

• I'd rather buy him Darth Tater. Not because I'm into Star Wars (never seen any of the films) but just because it cracks me up. But then I wouldn't have Tater Tots. Hmmm, dilemma.

• I guess I could buy both, then they could be happy little threesome. Although, I'm sure that's probably a little to weird for the office. And potentially confusing for the Tots. "Are you my Tater daddy?"

• Is it wrong that I ate a brownie for breakfast? I washed it down with orange juice. Which was not a good combination, in case anyone was thinking of trying it.

• I'm listening to "Tiny Dancer" and just now realized the lyric is "you had a busy day today" and not "you had a visitor today."

• My wall calendar is still on June because I love the picture.

• Why is it that the week following a three-day weekend seems like it has two extra days in it?

• I love Neil Diamond and must sing along when his songs come on the radio.

• A tenant just called to complain that he was cut off a block away from the building by another tenant. What the fuck is that about? How am I responsible for that? I asked him what he wanted me to do and he replied, send out a memo reminding people to drive with more courtesy. He wasn't kidding.

• I will not be sending out the above memo.

• Today is my half birthday. I am officially, 35 1/2. Yikes.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!
