"Behold, happy is the man whom God reproves; therefore despise not the chastening of the Almighty. For he wounds, but he binds up; he smites, but his hands heal. He will deliver you from six troubles; in seven there shall no evil touch you.


This should be of some comfort, but right now, it just hurts.

On viewing a particular version of Batman in the Toy Section at The Dreaded Mart of Wal:
+Kyle: "Look! It's 'I Don't Have Enough Crap in My Utility Belt' Batman!"

Normally I don't "believe" in fortunes and whatnot, especially from stale cookies. But this is way too coincidental for my tastes.


Generosity and perfection are your ever-lasting pursuits.


There is nothing in the stars about happiness for me. I am destined to serve, and will strive for righteousness until the end of my days.

Lori went to the City this weekend, and brought me presents. o^_^o WAIII! She found a Hot Topic, had to go inside, and told me she wished she'd had more money, because half the store would have been mine. LOL! What she brought:
* Black Wristband with a red embroidered 'A' (now I have gauntlets! ;)
* Pin with Lola Goth saying, "I'm feeling a little bit blah today." I love her little bat friend.
* Sticker featuring a cow, pig, and chicken, that says "Animals taste good." This is Lori's and my motto, so it's ABSOLUTELY perfect. LOL! Made my morning.

Quote of the day:
Okay, so I never actually had an opportunity to say this, but in one of my more stressful moments, I thought:

When it hits the fan - wear a raincoat! (Or maybe carry an umbrella...I can't decide which is funnier.)

As Nietzsche wisely said, stare too long into the Abyss, and soon, the Abyss stares back.

How true. *Looks for a window to stare through instead*

I've neglected to mention that we have a new ad manager as of yesterday. Her name is Niki. She's 25, married, and has two kids. She likes to talk, and laughs at everything. It's too soon to know if that's endearing or annoying, but I like her so far. She's personable, which is vital to the job, and seems to enjoy what she's doing, so we'll see how it goes.

I had to go to the bank today, and got Billie at the teller window. She's a doll, and told me she's really going to miss me when I move. ^_^ How sweet! I'm going to miss her, too, actually. She's so cute and funny. She'd be the cool grandma.

She said she was talking to Mark the other day, and that he spoke highly of me. I feel weird about that - about any time that I hear people have been talking about me. It's not paranoia so much as it's, "why are people bothering to talk about *me* of all the possible topics?" I dunno...it's just weird for me. I wonder if other people feel weird when I mention that I've talked about them to someone.

Anyway, it's always nice to know that what was said was positive.



Humorous Quotes of the day!

On Jon asking Mark to come over and look at a photo:
Mark: "Okay, but hurry up, because Ariel needs me for something and she's more important than you are."


On a photo named "Gambel with dead pig"
Me: "So who wins? The gambler or the dead pig?
Lori: "If you can't beat a dead pig, then you don't need to be gambling"


On a particular group of stupid individuals:
Lori: "Yeah, they're all worthless in their own special ways."


On trying to get in a word edgewise:
Me: "Well, I'm trying to tell you, Lori, but you won't shut up. (laughing)"
Mark: "Asking Lori to shut up? That's like taking someone off heroin!"

+Kyle: "I spy with my little eye, something that starts with "V"

On discovering a tray of questionable baked goods:

Lori: Now what is this?

Me: I'm not sure...they seem to be some form of nicotine-scented pastry...

Lori: (sniffs at the tray) You're right...I'm not eating them...

On exposing the boards in the kitchen:

On discussing the stupidity of people:

Me: There's something to be said for cannibalism...


~~~~~

Me, reading a sign as we cross a bridge: ...Clear...Boggy...Creek...?

+Kyle: I don't know. I don't claim to know. I don't *want* to know...

Quote of the Day 10-17-03:

Me: Here it is, folks, the single most overplayed song on the radio!

Jon: What is it? Stairway to Damn Heaven?
