Video of me
Attempting to shave my face.
Suffer if you dare.
Converse randomly
With myself I do during
this sad producion.
Before this was filmed
I might have had two Guinness.
Yes it will grow back.

Until next time...
The Husbear and I stopped at the rest area on the turnpike on our way to Tulsa today. Inside the gas station they sold these:
I’m not sure what I was expecting, except maybe for the flavor of a BLT sandwich!
Instead, they taste more like a baked potato with bacon flavor.
No hint of tomato. Or lettuce. Or really even toast.
I guess I was hoping for too much awesomeness.
Some marketing guy needs to be the first against the wall when the revolution comes.
Until next time...
The Husbear needs to practice step #5.
Today alone, I fixed his computer at the house (video card going bad… too much porn?), and his computer at the salon (several issues… I know better than to make other people administrators!).
How do people out there survive without a tech in the family? Maybe that’s how businesses like Geek Squad stay functioning? I know there are definitely days I want to call someone to fix my stuff when it doesn’t work.
Do you have a tech in your family, or do you have to call some stranger you don’t know when your electronic toys… er… tools don’t work?
Oh, and speaking as a tech, you could do a few other things while you’re down there practicing step #5. 😉
Until next time...
I think I shall call him “George”.
I’m curious about something.
Does anyone else maintain a list of songs they want played at their own funeral/death celebration/whatever you want to call it?
Is it weird that I have one?
I have this thing about hearing music at funerals that I’m fairly certain the recently departed would never have played/sang in a million years. And that always bothers me.
And if I hear “Amazing Grace” one more frakin’ time…. Actually, I’m okay if bagpipes play it. But that’s the only way. No singing it. Never again. Ever.
Because of that, I maintain a list. Not that anyone will probably remember it when the time comes. But at least I can say I made an effort. “Be Prepared” and all that.
Songs get added. Songs get removed. I’m guessing that’s what time does to us. It changes our perspective on what things mean. I don’t even have a specific reason that I could write out for some of these. They’ve just stuck with me over time since I heard them.
Other songs can be played. Happy Shiny Songs. And nothing slow or sappy, except maybe the ones on my list. Because it should be a party.
Here are the songs I have currently on my list:
Rob Thomas’ “Now Comes The Night”
The B-52’s’ “Dreamland”
INXS’ “The Stairs”
Indigo Girls’ “Closer to Fine”
Gary Jules with Michael Andrews’ “Mad World”
Simple Minds’ “Don’t You (Forget About Me)”
Queen’s “These Are the Days of Our Lives”
Jimmy Buffett’s “Wheel Inside the Wheel”
And then I have some specifically for the Husbear to remember me by, which is probably wrong of me:
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s “Still In Love With You”
Savage Garden’s “Truly Madly Deeply”
DaViglio’s covering Kelis “Acapella”
So, if you have a list, what songs are on it?
Until next time...
