That's so scary. I'm glad you're okay.

wow glatt

I am glad you are alright.

I feel your pain, glatt, and I'm so glad you're alright. I won't get into my disdain for the "training" and "talent" of truckers who put our lives in jeopardy every day. They even ramped (ha, pun) up coverage on the interstate by the Highway Patrol just because every freaking accident in the winter (well not every but most) was caused by semi-driver error. They way up in da sky. We're just little ants down here waiting to be killed by behemoths with very bad driving skills. OH, so I guess I will get into my disdain. ;)

OK, my ho posts: I was at my mom and dad's on Saturday and had gone outside to get something out of my car. I heard a jet, and looked up just in time to see an F-16 flying over...so close I almost felt like I could touch it (which of course it wasn't really that close.) It was banking in to a turn. By the time my dad got out of the shop it was long gone. I stood in my parent's driveway, hands in the hair, yelling "WOOOHOOOOOOO." My family has always been into stuff like that. Puts tears in my eyes. And reminds me that my nephew is in Quantico learning to be a pilot. Amazing stuff.

Second ho post: Leaving there, I saw a car pulling one of those little trailers commonly used by entertainers to get stuff back and forth. It read "Aim High Puppet Minstries." I so wanted to paint out the "A" and put an apostrophe between I and m, to make it I'm High Puppet Ministry. Because seriously, puppets are creepy and people need to be high to appreciate them.

Oh, guess I should 'splain the Dayton INternational Air Show was at the airport. It's a big deal. We used to watch parts of it from the lake/land my dad owned, before he sold it. For one to be clear near my 'rents house is unusual. Wow wow wow.

Disdain? I thought you drove an ennui.

Nope, I drive a Beetle. ;)

Doesn't that bug you?

infinite monkey 07-25-2011 08:33 AM

Sometimes. When it does I think fondly of my Fahrvergnügen. ;)

I find myself looking for the "like" button while reading some cellar posts lately.
Perhaps I'm spending too much time on facebook.

Wow. Today would have been my 20th wedding anniversary. Times fun when you're having flies. :(

BigV 07-27-2011 11:05 PM

wow.. how long ago did you divorce?

infinite monkey 07-28-2011 07:12 AM

About 9 years ago?

We're still friends. He called to wish me a happy Un-iversary.

Just amazing that all this time has passed. I'm getting so old.

I went thru that in 2008. Made me feel sad/sick but you know what? I knew the marriage would be a bust the very day I married him.

We were both young. But, still, it was a sad day.

infinite monkey 07-28-2011 07:21 AM

We started out as friends. We did OK with marriage...for a while. It became clear that things were getting very bad. We decided we were very good at being friends but really bad at being married.

I was 26 when I got married, he was 36. It didn't seem so young at the time, but it sure does now.
