My chances for getting a job quicly ... as far as these clouds? I think not, but I don't know. I signed up for yet another job hunting service. Hey, surprise, most of the jobs posted I've already read and the list, chronological is, well, maybe not accurate on the date posted. I find this latest HOT JOBS is mislabled. It should be Not Jobs. It leaves me nothing to "yahoo" about.

fox and the hound

While driving back from friend, MR's house, I saw a flash, short, long, dark, fast -- the fox.  I have never seen a wild fox except for this little glimpse in the headlights.  There is no fox hunting season in Indiana, thankfully, and in urban sprawl areas, it would be very unlikely to see one.
 
The hound, as she played the role was ever so playful, until MR mentioned trimming her tail, where the flag of a tail folded down under the weight of the news.  Hound, she's not, but cananie, certainly.
 
-- enter the opposum
 
a longer than the hound, critter shuffles slowly between yards ... grayish, unkept fur on a lumbering body heads toward a neighbor's garden to fee.

Kiss?



McLaughlin group debated, "Evidently, low approval ratings can be contracted through saliva."

What in the world were each of them thinking? I really doubt it was a kiss, but that was all kind of bad timing! Whatever it was, it is now and forever a kiss. It was a bad call. Left only with the dismal "what is the definition of 'is'".

The statement whispered to him should have been, "this isn't a good idea."

Israel

It hasn't changed really, just the ebb and flow of violence.
Iran calls death to Israel. Oh ... so, there was a time when they didn't declare this? That's much like declaring death to America. It's breakfast there. Have another bowl of hate. Do not question. Kill when not in adherance to the written and unwritten laws and rules according to the "religion". McLaughlin Group covered the Israel situation, but concluded nothing -- like anyone's point of view matters pragmaticly to those suffering it.

inescapable

I'll have to move, should I ever take up greater evil. Today, while at the grocery store, "Hello, Mr. [my surname]!"

I will not fight you.
You cannot escape your destiny. Fate is what I make ... yadda yadda yadda.
Some of my life sticks to the roof of my mouth -- can be difficult to remove; regardless, I plunge (d) into it with vigor.

wound that would not heal

Mother has an August 24th surgery appointment.  Mother complained about a leg injury that hasn't successfully healed for 3 years.  Nice -- a nurse who doesn't check into it.  Against her will, Father took her to the doc.
According to the doctor, they need to take a biopsy to verfiy his suspicions that it's pre-cancerous.  Since an incision might bring on an infection, he suggested that she not take this action now, so close to surgery.  Some more about which to worry.
 
Today was a long one.  Mom is sore, Father is plain bushed.  The news isn't good.  Welcome to the weekend.
In lighter news, my sister and her family are supposed to take a mini-vacation to lovely Monticello, Indiana for a day at Indiana Beach (large, long lake with rides, etc.)
 
Another sister, her husband, and their canine companions Samson and Argos are due to come up this weekend.  It should be fun, much more fun than the drive, wait, bad news.
 
...
I haven't slept well, tonight is likely going to be the same.  Tylenol pm didn't seem to work.  I think I'll try reading a book some one lent me.  I think this is bleak week!

A rainbow of fruit flavor.

Odds and ends, stuff I don't think that I'll see again. Time keeps slippin' into the future. Stacks and stacks of stuff that should not be kept. Ah, the hoarders, met equally with the pitchers, yielding -- using a medium outcome or one's pitching leaves lots of space for the other one's collections of ... stuff that should be gone!

I'm the pitcher. I donate or pitch. I keep very little.

Looking for jobs in all the wrong places

At what point in time did I indicate I wanted to be a part of this team? I found this advertising in no fewer than 20 postings out of 112.

stupid humor for the irrational

I, however, like it.

I have CDO.  It's like Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, only in alphabetical order, like it should be.
