*focl*
Read all the way through!

.:.Uniquely maladjusted... But fun.:. 1:09 AM

Well, today {yesterday by now, yes....} was my first day at my brand new job!

My feet really fucking hurt.

I'll get over it soon, just means I'll have my cane with me on Sat and Sun.

Well, got to Daddy's about 12ish - He fixed me up a bed! *dance* Thank you Daddy! I did some reading and sort of fell into that not-quite asleep, not-quite awake state, got some rest and woke up at 6:45 ish when the TV went off - nice alarm. Waking up to the Weather Channel. I like it. ^^

Got upright, Daddy made breakfast - so nice of him. Got dressed, puttered about and he took me to the Paper. A few minutes' nervousness and I started. Clocked in, talked to a supervisor {sort'a} and started to clean up. Then I sorted and put together inserts - you know, hte adverts that fall out when you pick the paper up? By hand. Whee....Standing. From 8 or so to I think I clocked put about 3:15 or so? It was okay. Lots of people in and out and stuff. Tolerable.

Of course that was a Friday and that's a very slow day to hear tell...

Got the paperwork finished and went out and spent quite a while walking the town of Aurora. Not a too bad a place. For A Town That Size (tm).

Went to the farm, socialized with Ms Lorrane and Ms Jane. Came back to Springpatch and had a nice long, hot bath. Now I'm thinking of digging up some gauze to wrap my feet. ^^ There's painkillers on the desk.

Well, off to surf for a little while. And pack and...

*waves*

Lying in Bed

The distance from
The top of my matress
To the ceiling:
About the same as
The distance from
The bottom of a grave
To ground level.
God, I hate
Lying awake at night.

This is so... interesting and sad and strange and...gah! at the same time. Read, look, shiver.

BEDLAM BOYS

For to see Mad Tom of Bedlam
Ten thousand miles I traveled
Mad Maudlin goes on dirty toes
For to save her shoes from gravel.

Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonny
For they all go bare
and they live by the air
And they want no drink or money.

I now repent that ever
Poor Tom was so disdain-ed
My wits are lost since him I crossed
Which makes me thus go chained

I went down to Satan's kitchen
For to get me food one morning
And there I got souls piping hot
All on the spit a-turning

There I took up a caldron
Where boiled ten thousand harlots
Though full of flame I drank the same
To the health of all such varlets

My staff has murdered giants
My bag a long knife carries
For to cut mince pies from children's thighs
And feed them to the fairies

The spirits white as lightening
Would on me travels guide me
The stars would shake and the moon would quake
Whenever they espied me

No gypsy, slut or doxy
Shall win my mad Tom from me
I'll weep all night, with stars I'll fight
The fray shall well become me

And when that I'll be murdering
The Man in the Moon to the powder
His staff I'll break, his dog I'll shake
And there'll howl no demon louder

So drink to Tom of Bedlam
Go fill the seas in barrels
I'll drink it all, well brewed with gall
And maudlin drunk I'll quarrel

For to see Mad Tom of Bedlam
Ten thousand years I have traveled
Mad Maudlin goes on dirty toes
For to save her shoes from gravel

I love taking advice. *grin*

Daddy calls up this morning - while I'm looking for the notebook where I put his cell number (heh...) and says-

"Say thank you Daddy."

So I do...after a try of 'huh?' and it turns out - I've a job at the paper! *dances* He tells me to go out and enjoy the day, so after a bit I do. Wander Downtown for a little bit - get myself some Italian from the deli and sit by the door. I watch a couple come in and put up posters for local bands, watch a guy chase his hat across the intersection of Park Central South and St. Louis,a nd watch dark storm clouds roll in from the West.

Oops.

When I left at three, I needed sunglasses and had my hoodie tied around my waist. Put my glasses in the pocket when I went into the new clothing store DT - didn't buy anything. *snerk* not really my style. As if I have one...

I get out of the deli and see little white balls falling from above - hail? No clue. Shiver and put on hte hoodie - from what felt like 57 down to what felt like 43. @@ In less than thirty minutes. I decide to head home and step out of a shoe crossing the street!

No cars, thankfully. So I kick both sandals off (much better traction) and cross the street - yes, I was watching for anything gross. and the chorus to Beldam Boys. *points up* starts running through my mind.

For to see Mad Tom of Bedlam
Ten thousand years I have traveled
Mad Maudlin goes on dirty toes
For to save her shoes from gravel

I get some looks, walking down South street, singing and carrying my shoes in the rain. I stop by the Baptist church and put them back on, wandering past the Day house and throught the park, still humming and watching peoiple run.

I get to Madison, look over to my left - the West. Sunshine back behind the houses.

A storm - pretty nice one, mind. Cold, rain, loud thunder, bright lightening...and it's over in 15 minutes.

I love spring. Off to shower!

... I pledge allegiance to the Christian flag and to the Savior, for whose Kingdom it stands, one Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again, with life and liberty for all who believe.

Scooby Doo 2 is so much fun. ^^ Or at least I think so.

It's fun trying to pick out the human actors playing who. And the little references scattered here and there. Yay! Lots of Shaggy time! He's so much fun.

Random fact - did you know that CBS Executive Fred Silverman was listening to Frank Sinatra's "Strangers In The Night" (with the scatted lyric "Scooby-dooby-doo") on the flight to pitch "W-Who's S-S-Scared?", the orginal for Scooby Doo. So they changed a bit {because some bits were deemed too scary for the 70's kids...}: the dog {"Too Much"} was renamed Scooby-Doo (after that Sinatra lyric), the spooky aspects of the show were toned down slightly, and the comedy aspects tuned up. The show was re-presented, accepted, and presented as the centerpiece for CBS's 1969-1970 Saturday Morning season.

Can't talk too much about it or I'll give it away. Darn my internal censor. Riiight. ~^

Just a fun little article. I like hte reader's response from "MatthewGarth"

Another random fact - Casey Kasem {Shaggy} became a strict vegetarian, and wanted his character Shaggy to follow suit. Shaggy's veggie in the first live action movie. ^^

*fidget* Okay - enough for now.

An Introduction to the World

Web-Home of Parvastur Tultema, Tecilquar of the Spring-fed Field, Lover of Nature, Smiter of Idiots, Watch-Warden of the Squirrels of Inconvenience, Nazi of the Grocery, Wielder of Sword of Bronze and Emerald, Inciter of Bunnies, and Wereslut of a Thousand Forms.

Much more subtlety like that, and I'm going to have to become a used car salesman just to maintain my self-respect.

Being able to fly would be cool, but only if I could fly fast. Flying slow is floating, and that's just creepy.

Look, Lemmings -- a Cliff!
