oh, well. Shit happens.

Greetings!

Hello to everyone in the cyberhood this morning! I was just sitting here listening to some random playing of Lyle Lovett songs and thought I would check in and share some random keyboard meanderings.

How the job going? Great and thanks for asking. It is interesting to say the least. We have the regular, paying with silver coins, riding a bicycle 5 miles to get there guys. And the upper crust of society who don't even blink when the cost of the two bottles of wine is 75 plus tax. All in all, I enjoy it. I don't particularly enjoy the behind the scenes re-stocking and cleaning the toilet crap, but I guess it goes with the territory. Oh, and did I mention I get a discount? I really do not drink much, always seems to make me ill. But it was nice to treat myself to a bottle of Yukon Jack and some cranberry and orange juice. Northern lights it is called. My breakfast treat this morning. Tastes like grapefruit juice, but warms the belly.

Snowing here this morning, but not sticking naturally. But it is cool to see especially because it is rare to see it  before January. When I was young we used to have some awesome snowfalls. They seem to have tapered off though and I really miss it.

M has been really ill this past week and I have been working so much I haven't had much time for them. But I am going to visit later. Burned some Cd's for M. Some Merle Haggard and Johnny Cash. He is really into that old country/cowboy lifestyle. I think he is a reincarnated cowboy. He watches all those old western series from the 60s and 70s. A real retro kind of guy. Someday I will post some pics of him.

Louie the Beagle has been a bit under the weather. Ear infection. He has always had the problem with is ears off on the last couple of years. He has seizures also when it gets bad. Freaky thing to see, a dog having a seizure. But he will be fine. I went to the vet and got meds for him.

Lotion sales have been down, but I am ever the salesperson with my co-workers. I mostly give it away to let them demo it, got to invest some money to launch an item, right?

Played Fable 2. I really enjoyed it. I only rented it though. I bought the new COD, naturally. I like playing shoot 'em up. So, hope to see some people on line playing sometime, when I find some time to get on. The part time job is picking  up in hours. Usually I am off Sunday through Tuesday. But Monday I am working at a different store so my uncle can be off. My uncle is my dad's brother. Not that I really know my dad, he and my mother split when I was young and I never met him till I was 14. I never got past feeling awkward around him. Then later I was told he really isn't my father. Now isn't that even more awkward? Anyway.

More hours equals more money, now there is an equation I can solve. I will leave you with  a picture. Another butterfly. Same type, but I took this pic in St. Louis at the zoo. There is an awesome zoo in St. Louie, KC has a good one maybe even better that St Louis. Have a great Sunday everyone. I working on it myself!!

Deer Season

Deer season is here. I took this pic a few weeks back on a protected place that all the deer run to just before season opens. I bet I saw about 20 plus that day. This was one of two I was able to get to stand still and pose for me.

Christmas idea..
