This and That

Dreamt This:

A football player that I liked and respected was going to quit and had disapeared. I can only assume he was with the Colts as Dungy was in the dream as well. Anywhoodle, I was out with my boss at an outdoor shopping center getting coffee when I spotted him in the crowd. I then proceeded to beg and plead with him to come back to football. He told me to leave him alone and started to walk away. So I did what anyone would have done, I tackled him. So there I am hitting the pavement with a very large linebacker using me as cushioning from the ground. And I still managed to squeek out all the reasons he should be back in football. Something about me being a vikings fan but that I was also a fan of his. Blah blah blah. And that when Tony came into the picture and joined me in trying to convince him to play.

So apparently we succeeded because then I was on the team bus traveling around. And I was leaning on his knee as we were looking out at some local landmark.

And despite the sound of it there was nothing sexual about it. I mean, he was all muscle, big, lean, and beautiful but it stopped there. Don't ask me. I woke up a little disapointed that my dream was so innocent. Oh well.

When I went up to bed the hubster was watching a football game on ESPN classic. So that must be where this all came from. And my friend that just visited lives in Indy.

Thinking That:

On the drive into work I heard this song:

I went to a Hooters concert in 86 or 87 at Hershey Park. It was a really fun concert. Night time, lot's of open space. Thousands of people dancing and having a great time. Much like in the video. Just lots of people with big hair having a total blast. This has always been a big feel good song for me. Love the Hooters.

Doing This:

Yesterday was another perfect weather day. As soon as I got home from work the dogs and I played in the yard. Then I curled up in a chair and read. The windchimes were quietly singing away, the breeze was softly blowing. The dogs stretched out on the porch and slept in the sun.

You Are 24% Evil




A bit of evil lurks in your heart, but you hide it well.

In some ways, you are the most dangerous kind of evil.





The Muttprincess has promised to help corrupt me more. Phew, I'm relieved. I don't like being so little evil.

However, I do have a bone to pick with the survey:

SO, let me get this straight. I am evil because: I don't believe in God and or I hate kids.

Seriously?

SERIOUSLY?????

Excuse me, but the historic records prove that the most violent attrocities were committed in the name of God. HELLO people. I think there is some potential evil in the whole belief in God thing there. Regardless of where you stand we can't deny that great evils were committed in the name of religion.

And have you ever tried to relax in your backyard, read a book, listen to windchimes, even nap in the warm sun and had the moment completely destroyed by the screaming hyena of a child next door.

Or those nice dinners at a restraunt completely ruined by either A. the child jumping up and down on the booth seat behind you, or B. the screaming banchee throwing a fit and spitting out peas?

Please, we all hate kids once in a while.

I have to laugh Newt.

You don't have to be Christian to be a good person. There are racist people on this earth who claim to be Christian and their are poeple who are athiest who are not. As someone who believes in God in some way, who do you think I prefer? The person who made that survey is laden with their own biases and beliefs. Pay it no mind. They live in a delusional world. One of the managers at work doesn't want kids either. I do. I think she's one of the nicest people I've ever worked with.

Oh I will help you. A good place to start is to stalking people.

Another thing is to go SHOE shopping more!

It said that I'm 46% evil. I thought it was going to be worse than that. I started off clicking boxes off pretty darn fast. LOL

I don't hate the kids, I just want to kill the parents who think we all have to listen to and deal with THEIR kids.

I'm afraid to take the evil quiz LOL

I take pride in having a bit of an evil streak in me... I'm tired of people calling me nice all the time...

You Are 46% Evil

You are evil, but you haven't yet mastered the dark side.
Fear not though - you are on your way to world domination.

So - there you have it. I'm NOT all nice ;)

2. I will be praying to Holy Jebus in your name
3. I know you're more than 40% evil.

But I love ya anyway.

I'm 78% evil. Maybe I should be locked up? That seems a little dangerous to society.

You must be a huge football fan to care enough to tackle the guy.

Jo said...

I'm 32% evil...they're f*cking liars! LOL

I can't hate kids, but I often want to smack their parents...you can multi-task by clubbing the parents with the screaming banshee.
