My dream last night included myself, a stalker, a little girl and a furniture resale shop. Weirdness. Anyway, is anyone actually planning on pulling anything off for April Fools? This is just cruel and, for some, probably appropriate.
Going to be working tomorrow, no April Fools pranks for me. Tonight though I am headed out to see the A's Giants preseason game at AT & T park. Baseball is back and not soon enough.
Likewise. I'm watching the season opener Sunday with a buddy of mine, going to the Yanks home opener on the 10th, and taking the family to Chicago in 2 weeks where we will see both teams with a side trip to see the Brewers in Milwaukee.
Last year some unknown coworker left two big boxes full of old harlequin romance novels free for the taking in the break room here (random but welcome) and the sales team took a bunch to prank people with around the office. I've had a bunch stashed in my desk since and recently brought a bunch home for ms. katokoch to discover. Already hid a few in her work and gym bags. We'll see how long it takes for some of these to appear. Good times.
My friend's brother is getting married tomorrow, and apparently most of his family can't stand her. I don't really know the brother, but apparently he's a bit of a prankster. It would be beyond hysterical if he actually did something like this...Like I might actually have to make him a crown or something...
Our dog brought a "gift" into the house for us. A "gift" that used to be alive before it met our dog. Is this a hound thing? I've never seen a dog more friendly to strangers, not to mention other dogs and cats. ...But rodents, rabbits, birds....MDK. She was just bashing her head against the fence like a mental patient trying to get at the cottontail bounding around in the yard next door.
Just got myself a VPN so no more restrictions on Netflix. See you all in ten years. Now I just need to figure out how to get an HBO Go account.
Retrievers are the worst about that. They don't just kill things, they also need to give those things to you. When I was growing up, our dogs were all at least part lab. Now my parents have a german shepherd and an australian shepherd, and it's almost weird that the yard isn't constantly littered with groundhog, raccoon, and opossum carcasses.
My grandpa's golden retriever would bring back deer fawn each spring. Scurge of the baby deer that one. I think all farm dogs kind of revert back to this primal kill instinct. They used to attack animals as a pack. With all of today's great shows to binge, I landed on......... The Santa Clarita Diet. It's Weeds with less weed plus a Zombie. It's not as horrible as the preview made it out to be. Just so uninteresting. Timothy Olyphat just isn't a comedic actor, Drew Barrymore is better in her role but the whole thing as all MMMMEEEEEHHHHHHH!
Get an amazon fire tv stick. It costs $40. It will make your tv compatible with any app that is not iTunes.
Yay. The two crazies just got into a screaming match downstairs. "Fuck you" "No, fuck you" "FUCK YOU!" "NO, FUCK YOU!" "GO FUCK YOURSELF!" "YOU GO FUCK YOURSELF" "FUCK YOU" "NO, FUCK YOU" "YOU"RE A FUCKING ASSHOLE" "NO, YOU'RE A FUCKING ASSHOLE" "FUCK YOU" "GO FUCK YOURSELF" *Doors slamming* Glad that they could reach a resolution like rational human beings. The sad thing is, I need a smoke and I know at least one of them is hovering around somewhere down there.
Is anyone here a fan of Turkish delight or licorice all-sorts? I find them revolting, but people(like my dad) love them. I can't picture a human being having a palette for the stuff, it's roofing tar mixed with spent fuel rods.
Did it really take your son turning 13 to know that? I would think having insurance requiring a colonoscopy would clue you in
April Fool's Day annoys me, particularly with all the "funny" stuff that gets posted online. Played out and lame. So, what I've started to do is that April 1st I aggressively believe whatever joke things people post and cannot be dissuaded otherwise. Make a fake "I'm moving to Saudia Arabia!" post? I'll start sending you links of things to do, start planning your going away party, and tell everyone I know about your plans. At least this year I'll be at an event all day so will get to miss it for the most part.
My insurance doesn't require it. We'd probably have a battle if they did. "You're going to stick something up my where? Oh hell no." "But it's required" "Nope, nope, nope" Have I ever mentioned that I LOVE my latest Les Paul? I do. After a few years of playing not Les Pauls it's like finding a long lost family member that you actually like.
