h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Friday was such a ridiculous day at work. I stepped outside around Noon to get a bit of daylight and fresh air between tasks. Already felt like my head was going to explode. A rather new employee asked me how my morning had been. So, I told them exactly how it had been(hey, they asked...). The first thing out of their mouth was "You know, you should write that down....it would make an interesting book." Not the first time I've heard that.

After a million ridiculous questions, a ton of merchandise ordering and receiving, more merchandise arrived. I was so tired by the time I made it home that I fell asleep in the chair trying to watch a dvd. Wouldn't have been so bad, except for the nightmare about being smothered. Woke up to find the sleeping on my ribs. Same had the nerve to wake me at 3 a.m., and at 4 a.m. At 5 a.m. I woke the .

Fully recovered now... Thanks to a couple of hours of Southern comedians. It hurts to laugh *that* much. "The DWI charge was a setup...they was arresting everyone driving on that sidewalk".

Hopefully the weekend helped a bit too! How've you been hun?

Sheesh! Forgot the

Hi Jazz.
I spent yesterday writing...that book everyone keeps suggesting. And, reading "The Great Auk". Comedy Central has declared this Redneck Weekend. But, down here, every weekend is Redneck Weekend... Currently @ Jeff Foxworthy.

How was your weekend?

The weekend was fine hun , great Fri. & Sat., reasonably quiet otherwise.

According to Jeff Foxworthy, to be a redneck means to have a glorious lack of sophistication. There's none of that there sophistication around here.

Ah yes, Jeff Foxworthy!

Hi Evangeline, *waves to Jazz*


Just popped by to let you know (details will be in my journal) that I'm not finding the time to be online much at the moment. But I'm going to try to keep up with your journal and I'm still checking my email every day.


Candi.

Hi *waves to both Candi & Evangeline* Just thought I'd pop in now & remind you I'm off to do the jam session/kitchen thing tonight...looking forward to it, a great latin bass player leading the hosting group. Should be both good musicians & very good !

Hi Candi.
I would have answered sooner, but I was writing some files to cd. And, this computer isn't that powerful.

Good to see you around. Have some and while I take a look at your journal.


*runs off to check Candi's journal*

Hi Jazz, how is your evening?

Ah hi, Evangeline hun! Somehow I missed that posting yesterday, but the evening went well, nice & quiet...& so far this evening seems to be off to a good start (the day went quite well too - so well that I could be getting paranoid *casts nervous glances over each shoulder...out the window & towards the ceiling...& crosses fingers just in case, after making a subconcious sign-of-the-cross* How'd your day go hun? And despite not being purple, how's the new hair dryer?

Hi Jazz

*carefully looks around*
Other than being kind of busy, today was okay. This evening is pretty quiet. The and I are surfing H2G2 and watching a little television.

The hair dryer is okay, for a non purple hair dryer... that is. Still haven't a clue about the ionizing bit.

Jeff Foxworthy is the only Southern comedian I've ever seen. I used to enjoy his TV series. Too bad it got cancelled.

I seem to remember hearing something about ionizing making hair more manageable...whether or not there's any merit to that...or any 'hair-health' benefit, is anybody's guess.

Your mention of the cat & TV brings up the fond memory of my long-deceased cat being absolutely transfixed by a closeup of birds, on a nature program. Looking at her you'd swear the birds were right in the room!

I saw Jeff Foxworthy do a live show in Baton Rouge a few years ago. Someone got up from their seat, and walked past the stage towards the lobby. Jeff stopped the show, leaned over and asked them "Where are you going, is the show that bad, already?" The young gentleman told Jeff he was only going to get refreshments. Jeff told him "Oh, well I'll have a beer and a nachos, since you was up...". He was a bit flustered when the gentleman returned with an extra beer and nachos.

Be careful what you ask for.

If ionizing makes hair more manageable, it's going to take an awful lot of ionizing to get a comb through my hair when it's dry.

I used to have a cat that would watch the television like that , her name was Snowball. That was a long time ago. Xena, likes to hang out on top of the television and watch us. Or she just curls up on me while I watch television. Currently, she is snoozing on top of the monitor.

Well, I see that last posting about my cat Sasha actually got through, I kept repeatedly getting "The page cannot be displayed" last night. Finally I just shut down & unplugged the cantankerous ol' beast for the night (that usually seems to help.)

Anyway how's you Fri. goin' hun? Hopefully you'll be easin' into the weekend. One of Sasha's favourite spots was on top of the fridge - I was in a basement suite at the time & the fridge was directly below/adjacent to a window - so she could survey the back yard. I even got a rug remnant for her to lie on & she'd spend hours up there!

While I'm up, I think I'll ionize Jeff Foxworthy's hair.

I used to have a cat as a houseguest whenever the owners went away on vacation. Ginger (the cat's name) paid no attention to my television, but he *was* interested in the goldfish in my fishtank. One time, I called my broker to buy or sell something, and while I was talking to the broker, Ginger jumped into the fishtank.

Hmm...
