Myriad Mysterious Mouses...mices...mice.

Never look a gift horse in the mouth...especially if it was raised by canibals.

Why am I still awake you ask? It is because I am waiting. Waiting for what, you press? For an airplane I answer. Wait, are you going somewhere? Nope. Then why are you waiting for an airplane? Because someone I know is coming in on that airplane and I must be at the airport to pick them up. Oh. Exactly.

The dartboard in the garage was an amazing idea, but I REALLY think it needs to change because when the door is open, the ceiling is just too damn low to hit the double 20. And damn if the mosquitos weren't just frickin' ubiquitous this evening. I was achin' for some repellant, but I wasn't about to give in to those pesky critters.

Oh, a woman at the cafe today was weird to me. I was sitting at my table, kinda sideways like, looking at my computer screen, when I noticed the girl at the table behind me get up and walk to the counter. I looked over to see what she was doing and I saw an egg-salad sandwhich on her table. I went back to my computer when she suddenly sat down next to me and let out an exclamation. She then turned to me and commented about how I hadn't protected her sandwhich from the fly that was sitting on it. I just kinda grinned awkwardly and went back to my computer. Then she made the comment that when flies land, they shit on whatever they land on. So what does she do? She commences eating the egg filling from inside the bread that had been touched by the fly. AND she continues talking to me with a mouthful of this salad stuff.

The woman was in her late 30's early 40's but only looked it because of some extra wrinkles on her face. She moved like a 20 year old. Within 10 minutes of her talking, I knew exactly what her politics were, the mental state of her entire family, that she was scarred by religion, and that she was a repulblican but doesn't support Bush. In about 10 minutes I was so sick of the conversatoin that I pulled out a cigarette. That's when she decided to come out with the kicker, "You probably know this already, you seem pretty intelligent, but did you know that smoking causes erectile dysfunction in men?" That's when I burst out with, "ok, this conversation is over." and walked outside. I hate this town sometimes!

Tomorrow I'm gonna go down to the cafe and do some writing. I haven't written anything in a while and I need to. I'm going to start working on a story that has some continuity, in that the characters don't change really, but the plot just makes sudden 90 degree turns that no one expects, all the way through. Very improbable things. I'm thinking of calling "Incongruosity." heh.

peace out yo.
