Here's the diggz:
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don’t you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.
6. Tag three people
Mine is actually really good, and only because it's truly random....
"her grandmother is a hawk of a woman.
her mother is a psychotic liberal and lover of life.
her father is an asshole."
and a swift 20 bucks to anyone who can name the author and book this originates from....
This is gonna be tough, since 40% of my livejournal crew has disappeared, but I will tag ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) bohemian__child, skachick66 and Jessica, because I know you read this here thang ;-) |

Well Livejournal, you may be my only hope...
As some of you already know, planning a wedding is no walk in the park, although there are flowers (and sometimes sex) involved in both. My problem, specifically, is that my lovely bride-to-be and I have already set in stone a specific number of guests to attend (100). Now, here I am at 2am in a half-drunken stupor databasing said guests, and I have a little moral qualm going on.........There are more than a hundred fucking people in the database!!. So, people of Livejournal, if you are still with me, I beg of you....who should I cut out of this thing?! Should it be the cousin that I haven't seen in 15 years but I feel like he should be invited because I wet his bed when I was 7 and I still feel a tad bit guilty about it?? Should I go the cheap route and not invite the people that will be drinking the most wine? Should I feel obligated to invite anyone who invited me to their wedding, even if it's been years since we've last spoke? How do I tell a single person that I really want them to be there, but I don't want them to bring an entourage?? Do I have to invite everybody I've riddin on a goddamn bus with in the past 20 years to this thing?? WHERE DOES IT END?!?!?!?! Married or not, your input will be most appreciated!
And please, PLEASE, PLEASE...if you don't end up getting an invite -- DO NOT TAKE IT PERSONALLY!! It's a tough, tough call, and I wish I could invite all of you and tell you to bring your families and kitties and puppies and turtles along - but alas; I'm kinda screwed here as it is. |

This morning at 1:45 am, Liz and I lost a dear family member and friend. Kiki "Squid" Kerwin passed away at the age of 21, of natural causes. Anybody that has ever met her knows that she is more than merely a cat - she had personality to spare. She would talk, cry, console...whatever you wanted her to do (except for be quiet). I don't know what I'll do without her flopping over my arms as I play video games, or sitting intently, giving me those cute puppy dog eyes when I eat hot dogs (Her favorite food).
I can't begin to tell you how much she'll be missed.

Sometimes work just doesn't feel like work at all...take Monday for example...
Here I am, peddling junk mail as per usual, when I hear this horrendous crunching sound from the next street up (Prairie Parkway). I turn to see a large wave of snow flying through the air, as if a snow plow was going through (I am looking up a hill and through trees, mind you). Something told me, however, this was no snowplow, and sure enough not a minute later I heard shouting, and within minutes the sound of emergency vehicle sirens had overcome the low rumble of the Wyoming projects, in the Taft and 30th area. So I finished up what I was doing and decided to drive up that way and take a gander. This is what I saw:
Turns out some dumbass homeboy was going a tad bit too fast on the Autobahn that is Prairie Parkway, and somehow managed to flip his SUV on its side. The windshield wipers were still on. It was hilarious.
The homeboy was taken to the Pimp Hospital for treatment of his bruised ego, and should recover fully after a strict regimen of OE and chronic.
The moral of this story? Well, there are two:
1) Being a mailman is sometimes quite interesting
2) When it's snowing out, don't drive like Dick Cheney shoots birds...this guy could have killed a girl scout, and that's not "dope" at all. |

I've been playing the most amazing game lately, called "We Love Katamari". You play as this little alien fella, who rolls this little ball around (not unlike "Marble Madness"), and tries to pick up as much stuff as he can with it. You start by rolling up small stuff, such as paper clips and erasers, but once your ball gets big enough, you can start rolling up beer bottles, radios, birds, kitties, and gnomes playing guitar. After a certain amount of time, you give your ball to the King of all the Cosmos, who names it (our best one was 'Sticky Uranus'), turns it into a star, and pops it into the galaxy. I challenge any of you to find a better game than this one. It is freaking fantastic!!!
Liver-Eating Johnston is one interesting fella. Read about him, and you'll feel all gooey inside.
Oh, and I don't care what anybody says; Brokeback Mountain kicked ass.

So, this seems to be the cool thing to do on my friends list nowadays: post things that you want for christmas for people that will nigh buy them for you, so they at least know what they should feel guilty about not getting for you.
Now you all know me to be one to keep abreast (huh huh) of current trends, so without further adieu:

I went into work a little early today: 4:50am, instead of my usual 5:02am, to find a dog running around the parking lot. As I pulled in to my parking space, he chased my car, so before getting out, I rolled down my window to make sure he was nice, and he was (maybe too much so). I then realized it was time to get on the clock, so, not knowing what to do with a lost dog at 5am, I slid inside the door, assuming he'd find his way home eventually. I guess this dog had been there all morning, just running around the post office for about an hour or so. I told a co-worker that if that dog found its way inside, I would probably not be able to stop laughing for twenty minutes or so.
( And boy, did I laugh.... )
Some big things are culminating....more news on that later. |
