Oh jeez, one of these

All right, I have nothing intelligent or interesting to write about right now, plus I should be working. Therefore I will indulge Julie, who “tagged” me to fill this out. I am not doing it in good humour, as it is 28 degrees here, forcing us to sleep with our windows open. This, in turn, means that I was woken up several times over the course of the night, the last time at 3:45 AM by a drunken Neanderthal who was yelling at the top of his lungs while walking up our street. Not yelling anything in particular, mind you, just hollering like a six-month-old that just discovered they can make loud noises with that big hole in the front of their face. So, I’m under slept and thinking unkind thoughts about humanity right now.

Three Things You Want to Do Really Badly Right Now (But Can't):

Glued to the banjo. No one can say I didn't warn the little bastard.

Just read this post...the monkey/banjo bit made me laugh until there were tears...ahh...hah...made my mom laugh too...

Was psyched to see you enjoying Bleeding Heart Show...when the Hey-Na's break in I get a little chill, and the drummer going out is doing some nice stuff that makes me wiggle in my undies a little bit...
