When the economy stops circling the drain and drops in, how will you respond?

a) Curl up in a fetal position and cry

b) Grow a beard and move to the desert

c) Sell pencils (and possibly organs) on the street

d) Loot as many stores as possible

e) Find yourself a nice little dumpster and settle in; then begin training rats and raccoons to become your unholy army of the night

f) _________________________________

F) Be thankful that my husband works for an Italian company and is in the medical industry. Thus not likely to lose his job.

I will sell tickets to the "Amazing Joel Show". The tickets will be cheap, and the skunks will be plentiful.

I'm just glad that Dan has job security. There are a lot of banks closing and he is the guy that goes in and closes them out when they do.

That's one of those words I always spell wrong for some reason. I'll get in the habit of thinking the way I want to spell it is wrong, so I go with the opposite of my gut. But then the right way starts to feel wrong, and I end up spelling it wrong often, as I did in the title of the post. I'll leave it there as a reminder of my failure...

I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, you couldn't get white onions because of the war; all you could get...

Do you ever get stuck in a conversation that you can’t get out of? I’m not talking about those times when you have to be somewhere else or there’s a rational need to leave, but rather those times when, with every word the other person utters (it’s typically just a two-person conversation), your brain threatens to escape your body and make a break for it. All you can do is try to play some old TV theme songs in your head, or maybe design circuits if you’re the engineering type, all the while searching for an opportunity to escape. Now I’m boring myself just thinking about those situations.

Thirty Thoughts

1. Is that more hair in the shower drain every morning? 2. What's the big deal? It's just a number with a zero at the end. Why should we consider that significant? 3. Am I still allowed to wear shorts? 4. I need to buy a house within the next five years or we won't have it paid off by retirement age. Then again, my generation won't be able to retire until age 80, so I shouldn't worry. 5. I really should be eating more green, leafy vegetables. If I leave potatoes in the fridge long enough, will that count? 6. Going back to school is getting less and less likely. Then again, sending kids to school will be enough trauma. 7. At least I no longer look like I'm 12, which I did until I was about 23. 8. I will never wear my cell phone on my belt. 9. For some reason, there's a big difference between having a kid and having kid s . 10. You kids get off the lawn! 11. I wonder when my memory will start to go. 12. Inside of me beats the heart of an 18-year-old. At leas...

Moral Compass

On a scale of 1 to 10 (with 1 being “afraid to step on a blade of grass” and 10 being “I’m gonna kill everyone!”), how bad is it if I were to warm up my car in the morning for 10 minutes before coming to work?
