the good, the bad, and the ugly.

in typical [Random Thoughts] style - there will be no rhyme or reason to the following. so sit back, relax and enjoy your flight. oh, and we have also now reached our cruising altitude so you may now use your approved electronic devices.

good
ain't nothing like sleeping in on a Saturday with a furball of love snuggled next to me.

bad
no Husband snuggled next to me - he went in to work for a few hours this a.m.

ugly
still feeling that he's a stumbling fool at the job. my patience is stretched thin. he's smarter than this. he knows what he's doing. i just can't get that through to him.

good
going to my best friend's kid's 10th birthday party. ten years old. consarn it, B & i were there when he was conceived. (git your mind outta the gutter. i live in California, but i'm not that liberal.) we had all gone to Laughlin for a weekend, and when Husband & i decided we were soooooooo hungry and couldn't figure out why they weren't ready for breakfast. so we did what every rational person would do.
we knocked on the adjoining door.
"be there in a minute" we hear, after a pause.

oops.

bad
very bad. a very quiet layoff happened at my work Wednesday. only two people from our office, but one is a woman i've worked with since i've started. right now, the Powers that Be are looking at the budget to find the money to create some positions that these two can take, if they're interested.

ugly
that we as a society cannot, apparently, get through a day without finding more about Anna Nicole or Britney. a dead celebrity cannot rest in peace, and a really messed up young mother seems to have trouble with her own image and finding help that she needs.

good
after work, i went on a mini shopping spree. found some super cute tops, and earned store dollars good for a future shopping trip. and i already know what i'm gonna get.
oh and i also bought four clocks at WalMart.
no, we are not so concerned with time that i need a clock every ten feet. but WalMart does carry them at a wee $4/each. these are the easiest ones to take apart to altar. nice.

bad
i still haven't won the lotto. maybe tonight...

ugly
possibly this post.

and now...a funny:
An Irish priest is driving down to New York and gets stopped for speeding in Connecticut. The state trooper smells alcohol on the priest's breath and then sees an empty wine bottle on the floor of the car. He says, "Sir, have you been drinking?" "Just water," says the priest. The trooper says, "Then why do I smell wine?"
The priest looks at the bottle and says, "Good Lord! He's done it again!"

enjoy a Saturday, won't you?
