    cheese cake i sing songs for you.  lala laaaa

    they storing the halloween party cheesecake in the fridge back here in the maintenance shop.  doh.  it haz somekinda whipped cream frosting on it.  never saw anything so bea-u-ti-ful

    Cautiously she placed her fingers upon the handle... It was cool to the touch, perhaps just a handle like any other and for a moment she became relaxed, then in a heartbeat she remembered her long journey that brought here, the perils she faced and the tales of what lay beyond that door... Surely nothing by the design or crafting of mortal hands could be contained within that space... But still, it was just an ordinary white metal box... What if the stories were all just the ramblings of madmen and heretics... What if her long journey was for nothing and all her comrades she had lost along the way had spent their efforts for naught... No... no matter the cost, she come too far... In one brief moment that seemed to hang on the edge of eternity, the universe had stopped... Everything became clear, every step, every breath and every second of her life had led her to this moment and before doubt or fear could step in and stay her hand, she closed her eyes, firmly grasped the handle and threw open the door... She hesitated for a moment, for what lay within had not stuck her dead... Was it even real? As she opened her eyes, what she saw before her was more wondrous then all the legends had described. Tears streamed down her cheeks and she fell to her knees... If only the others who had so long ago been lost could see this, she thought to herself... And through her wonder and tears she could feel their presence... It felt as though a gentle hand had rested upon her shoulder to comfort her and a soft, kind voice was speaking to her... "Misty... Are you okay? Do you want me to call an ambulance or something hun?", said the voice. Was it her? Had very magic of legend repaired all that was lost?  "Misty... It's just a really nice cheesecake... We got it at CostCo..." Misty threw her arms around Linda, for it was true she had survived the long journey across the maintenance shop... And there was Ted sitting at the break table reading his Newsday, checking the lottery numbers... "She gets like that with fancy cheesecake" Ted said as he crossed out numbers... Over by the phone there was Phil and Lucy... They had survived too... "They said they'll be here in ten minutes... Are her pupils dilated... Does she have a fever or is she foaming at the mouth?... The 911 guy needs to know..." Phil said, holding his hand over the phone. Suddenly hands were lifting her up and she was being carried away, she felt light as a feather and she reached out to the cheesecake as it grew smaller and more distant... She closed her eyes... Was it all just a dream?

    Sorry, that just stirred a vivid image of cheesecake love.

     

    woww, you psychic, how did you know it was a costco cheesecake?

    Shopping on the way home, need shavers, travel tissues, and smartwater for the bus trip.

    Is "Smartwater" the kind that you don't have to recycle in that torturous, odious, grafittied coffin at the back of the bus?

    Heh, I wish!  Nope, it's unflavored water with electrolytes, good for staying hydrated.. smiley

    Bored, bored, bored.  Nothing left to do but prep for turn-over tomorrow. indecision

    Researching transit options, putting more money on my prepaid phone, looking over my bus trip itenerary.  An hour stop in Dallas, where I change buses.. looks like that's about lunch time, so it works out well.  The nus makes about 10 stops, some at places that sell food, so I don't need to load up on snacks.

    I'm trying to decide if I should go to bed early Sunday and get up at 2AM or sleep late Sunday and stay up.. ugh.. no win there. indecision

    Time to get breakfast.. I think.. BACONNNNNNNNNNNNNN! laugh

    The opposite of bored, early (0330) start aaaand nothing worked as expected from then. Like, early (noon) finish and straightaway stuck in what looks like an endless traffic jaminstead of getting home and munching on bacon and eggs...soooo hungry complaint :)

    ..well all caught up finally. missed a few days because of RL stuff  - getting the SSI appeal underway and appointments with my doctor and my dentist. 

    Going to be a long haul to get an upper partial denture as on the state health plan, the wait list is horribly long.  Won't be able to get the needed extractions done and an impression made until the beginning of February, however, the alternative would be thousands out of pocket.

    oh man hope that isn't too uncomfortable while you wait, someone here said yesterday every toothache is worth a thousand dollars...

    That's my thinking.  I tried running maybe twenty years ago.  I found it very tough on the feet and the knees.  We weren't made to run on concrete or blacktop.

    There was a Monty Python skit about "The Ministry of Silly Walks"... I'm sure if you look for it on YouTube you'll find it... The skit opened with John Cleese heading off to his job at the the MOSW doing that crazy walk... Sorta like a cross between a Russian border guard march and a Goose having a stroke...  

    EDIT... I don't know how to embed the video so you can watch it without leaving the page, but in case you want to watch it, here is the YouTube link... https://youtu.be/iV2ViNJFZC8

    Not my most favorite MP skit, but it has a moment or two in it.

    Oh wow, bad news!  Maybe I should buy you some sandbags!! surprise

    Raining here too, but not as bad as down there.. don't wash away!

    It's slacked off here for the moment, but more is expected.  I35 is shut down in a couple of places down south, like Buda and Kyle.  The airport is shut down too. I think we'll be okay here.

    I am in Atlanta.  Not feeling well though.

    Atlanta is not that bad... Or was it the flying part?... You did fly, right?... Maybe you just taxied all the way to Atlanta... Sometimes it feels like it took that long. By the way, how's the zombie problem down there?... The Walking Dead really made it seem off the wall, far worse than the last time I was there.

    Not sure as I was only in Atlanta to change planes.   Now in Wisconsin.

    ...must be on Delta, correct? 

    I hate flying today as it seems you often have to go out of your way to change planes to get where you are going.

    One time when I was heading back to Portland OR from Milwaukee WI, I first had to fly 300 miles east to Detroit and then back over Lake Michigan and Wisconsin.

    I miss the regulated days when you has more direct flights and less of this bloody transferring at some out of the way hub.

    Yep it was delta.
