Something that continues to challenge me: gauging the number of napkins I’ll need for a take-out order. Woefully under or over, never a happy median.

The ‘S’ is for Super

And the ‘U’ is for Unique

The ‘P’ is for Perfection cause you know that we are freaks

The ‘E’ is for Exotic

And the ‘R’ is for Raps

So tell those nosy people just to stay the hell back!

Scene of the next generation: parents driving their kids to the bus-stop and waiting with them. This is our state of the world thanks to murderers, child molesters and territorial turkeys. We are fucked.

Someone please explain the following saying to me: I can’t win for losing.

I mean, duh. Isn’t that the whole point? What am I missing?

Co-worker: “You threw your back out taking a picture of a flower.”

Where is my spoonful of sugar for the medicine of life being doled out each day?

While quite intent in my pursuit, I need a merry tune to toot.

Piece of advice: I can be just as amusing when I’m not agitated.

After scouring the whole Price Chopper for a pack of plain mini-marshmallows for some hot chocolate for Noah and Emi, I finally settled for the bag of pastel-colored beauties seen here. At the check-out, the cashier was waxing rhapsodic about the pretty marshmallows. 

Me: “It’s only because you don’t have any plain white ones.”

Cashier: “Aww, you’re man enough to be comfortable eating pastel marshmallows.”

At times like this I wish I could hand out a card that would instantly convey my history so she could see what a foolish thing that is to say. But how could she ever know? How could anyone ever know…
