Vulcan mind tricks and dragons
I only took a half an hour lunch. I have no clue why. I had nowhere to go today, so I went to the break room and ate my turkey and cheese sandwich, bowl of soup, and my pear. I finished my lunch, finished the book I was reading, realized I still had a half an hour left, shrugged, and went back to work. Now I regret it because it just makes the work day a half an hour longer.
One of these days I want to work for one of those companies where you record your hours, and if you took half hour lunches all week, then by golly on friday you only have to work half a day. Instead I am chained here.
Ah well, It’s a living.
After a hectic day yesterday I popped into the pub for a beer. I keep forgetting that Tuesday nights are a bad night to go because they are either playing trivia or they are having their special poker night. They haul out some big homemade poker table and everyone gets into it. I am not a card player, myself. It simply does not excite me. So I finished my beer and moseyed on home, the cares of the workday flushed away by a frothy mug.
Got home, looked at the mound of laundry that needed my attention. I then used a special Vulcan mind trick to make it seem as if the laundry did not exist. Only a few people in the world have brains powerful enough to perform this Vulcan mind trick. I am one of them. Almost by magic I suddenly no longer cared about laundry.
Wandered outside, waved at Alan who is digging a giant hole in my back yard. I did not even see him at first, just a shovel appearing over the lip of the hole and dirt flying into the air.
Cleaned the cover to my hot tub. I had not cleaned it since the oak trees decided to dump their pollen all over the place. I need to empty out and refill my tub as well, now that most of the midges have seemed to vanish. I need to get a new cover one of these days, the one I have is ratty but functional.
This weekend I am going to find a dragon. A 100-foot-long, concrete and steel dragon that is supposed to be around Merrit Island. I have only recently heard that this monstrosity existed. It was apparently created by a ‘warlock and white witch’ bu the name of Lewis VanDerCar.
I am still trying to figure out of the dragon still exists. Some websites are saying that it had crumbled apart. Others say that there were plans to rebuild in 2005. I have no Idea, so I guess I will find out.
