My Thought Process

Islands in the stream. That is what we are. No one in-between, how could we be wrong? Sail away with me. To another world and we rely on each other, uh-huh.....Makin' love with each other......uh-huh....

That song is TOTALLY stuck in my head!

Today is Secretary's Day, or for you women's lib ladies, Administrative Assistants Day or for you hell fire women's rights ladies, Administrative Professionals Day. Whatever you call it, I hope you had a good one if you work in an office.

For years, I have in a roundabout way reminded my Boss of the day and a week or so later, the office would cater lunch in. Always delicious too, of course! This year bossman had it all planned out like two weeks in advance. All on his own! We were all treated to lunch at On the Border and since I feel like total ass, I didn't drink. Dammit. I've NEVER turned down free liquor. Oh well, it was nice anyhow.

Like I said before, I feel like total ass. Like shouldn't be at work total ass. I'm at work though and I'm pretty slow movin' especially after such an awesome lunch. For a minute I sat at my desk and stared at my pile of work and thought "Gawd....I got a whole lot to do and a short time to do it in."

So I decide to go hang out in the bathroom for a bit.

This is where my thought process kicks in. From "I got a whole lot to do and a short time to do it in", I go to singin' " We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there. I'm east bound just watch ol' Bandit run." Then I start thinkin' poor Jerry Reed. How old was he when he died? Man that sucks.

From there I start thinking about what I crush I used to have on Burt Reynolds back in the day. Damn that man was FINE.

A little hairy for my tastes, but back then I didn't know how gross all that body hair was.

Then ol' Burt went and did this to himself.....

Dang Burt, why'd you go and do all that to yourself? You look all plasticy and I totally gag when I see you now.

After spending a brief moment of silence for the death of hot Burt Reynolds, I progressed to Kenny Rogers. Now that's one man I had a major crush on when I was a kid. I mean MAJOR. You ever see the movie Six Pack? Yeah well, you totally should if you haven't. He does sit ups in that movie.

Skip forward to the 2000's and that man's done gone all Burt Reynolds on me, too. I look at him and feel embarrassed for him. I wonder how much he paid to have his face mutilated like that. Totally gnarly lookin' he is now.

Just look at him!

Again, while sitting on the toilet at work, I mourned the death of the hot Kenny Rogers with a brief moment of silence then I started singing for him.

Islands in the stream. That is what we are. No one in between, how could we be wrong? Sail away with me. To another world and we rely on each other, uh-huh.....Makin' love with each other......uh-huh....

Rev Run's Words of Wisdom

Yes my friends, it's time for another installment of the ever so wise Rev Run's Words of Wisdom...... "Never come down off your chariot to fight those who are throwing tomatoes" This goes back to the old tried and true saying, "pick your battles". Why stoop to someone else's level when it's just not worth it? Why raise your blood pressure? Nobody looks good all bug eyed with veins poppin ' outta their head because they're so worked up over what really amounts to nothing. We've all done it, and it just makes us look like fools. You gotta learn to sit back and watch people say and do stupid things, even if it pertains to you. It's way funner (another totally awesome word). Who cares if someone's talkin ' crap about you? Let it roll of your back. Why involve yourself with other people's stupid? Chances are, they're an insignificant person who has nothing better to do and hates life. Chances are, they're miserable ...

The Pain in Grief

Everyone grieves differently. Some people tend to keep it together as much as humanly possible so they can take care of everyone else, then they break down when they're finally alone. Some people flip their shit and go over the deep end which tends to make a lot of people uncomfortable, because what do you say to a person that's flipped their shit? Some people hole themselves up and just want to be alone, while others need to surround themselves with as many friends/family as possible. Then there's the people that decided no one loved the person that passed more than they did and no one is entitled to hurt like they are. All those people do is inflict unnecessary pain on others in a time where people are already hurting so deeply. Losing someone close to you hurts. Bad.....and crazy things come of it usually. Some good, some not so good. It can cause the people closest involved to make rash decisions that are irresponsible and hurtful to everyone else involved. You ar...

On the Outside Lookin' In

You pass by it everyday. It's a house that you used to know so very well. The house is a pretty flippin' sweet ass house and you wonder what it's like on the inside now. One day you pull up in the driveway, get outta your car and go look in one of the windows. Your curiosity has gotten the better of you. You figure it's early in the morning, so what's the chances anyone will ever even notice? As you expected, everything pretty much looks the same, just different furniture and you're just not there anymore. You go back day after day lookin' in the windows and one day the person that lives there sees you and wonders what in the sam hell you're doin'. Since they really get a kick outta watchin' you all cuppin' your hands up to your face tryin' to get a peak in at what the house is like now, they just sit on the inside and watch. You look harmless enough. Day after day after day, you're on the outside lookin' in and they're on the...

'Cuz I Felt Like It!
