Man, I totally forgot to do this last week, also. What the heck did I do last weekend?
EIGHT FROM THE EIGHTIES
1) Are you true blue?
I don't exactly know what true blue means. If it means loyal, faithful, etc., most definitely (if I feel you deserve it); however, if you screw me over, WATCH OUT!
2) When's the last time you went steppin' out?
If you mean dancing, it had to be in 1990 or thereabouts. I haven't been dancing since college as Marcus doesn't dance and he and I have been together almost 10 years now. As for just going out in general, we did go out for a really nice dinner at the Stagecoach Steak House here in town last night, thus the late posting of these answers.
3) What's something your parents just don't understand?
Why I refuse to have children. Marcus' mom doesn't get it, either.
4) What are sweet dreams made of?
A bubble bath for two, soft music, candlelight, no work the next day... Oh, wait, I'm definitely dreaming.
5) Are you prone to burning down the house?
Even though I'm a self-proclaimed pyromaniac, I've never come close to burning down anything. Well, there was the one time I was a little kid that I lit Kleenex on fire with a birthday candle and it landed on the carpet. Marcus...that's a totally different story. HA!
6) It's the end of the world as you know it. How do you feel?
It depends. Is my life getting better or worse?
7) Are you going to Wang Chung tonight?
I've never really known what that meant, either. But since I'm going to finish typing this and go to bed because daylight savings time always kicks my ass, probably not.
8) Why can't I get, just one... ?
Winning lottery ticket.

Man, I'm either really sick or I had a really bad allergic reaction to Dad's cat this week. I feel like crap. I can't breathe and I just coughed so hard my arm went numb. At least I made enough dough today that I don't have to go to work tomorrow. I think I need to stay home and relax.

Damn, I just realized Daylight Savings time starts Sunday morning. Ick. I hate springing forward. Why, in this day and age, can't we just pick a time and leave it alone? The whole world doesn't even do it and even those that do don't do it at the same time. They were saying on Art Bell's program this morning that England changes like a week before the United States.
Speaking of England, the internet is sooooooo cool. I ordered a CD from Amazon UK the other day. It was
The Tribe Soundtrack that isn't imported to this country. One sold on eBay for more than it cost to get it from England. Wild. It'll probably get here before the stuff I ordered from the US Amazon site since one of the items I ordered was available for shipping in 2-3 days. The subtle differences are kind of cool. They use dispatched instead of shipped and basket instead of cart. Call me weird, but I thought it was kind of neat.

I watched the
geek wedding this evening on TechTv's The ScreenSavers. It was so sweet! Leo LaPorte performed the ceremony, a robot was the ring bearer and Patrick Norton looked hunky in his tux.
The hot topic on radio talk shows lately (aside from talk about the Middle East) has been about some poll that declared that our society is ruder than ever. Duh! I think the height of rudeness occurred to me the other day. Dad and I were having lunch at the Hamburger Stand. Two kids came in carrying a Rubbermaid tote. I've seen these kids all over town for years trying to sell stuff. I assumed they were stopping to eat, but noooo, they approached our table while Dad and I are conversing and try to peddle their shit while I'm eating. I normally am very polite to kids trying to sell stuff, even if I cannot buy anything at the present time, but damn it, that set me off. I've had it with the lack of common courtesy. I went off on the kid about bothering a restraurant's patrons while they were dining. He totally picked the wrong day to mess with me.
I had more to say the other day when Blogger was screwed up, but dang it, I can't remember any of it now that I can get on. I should've made some notes. Oh, well, couldn't have been that important anyway, huh?
Well, I've got to got pay the lot rent and the landlord will keep me talking for hours, so if I remember any of it, I'll have to post tomorrow.
