My Big DumpTruck game was awful in 2016, which is probably a very bad thing, because it was the 20th anniversary of the darned thing. Can we have a do-over? I know a lot of celebrities and millions of voters who would like another shot at doing 2016 right.
If I promised to be better about writing, will you be better about reading?
Periodically I like to check to see what Amazon thinks it should recommend to me. I am a frequent shopper, more than I should be for convenience sake. I cannot afford a personal assistant so I make do with an Internet connection and a combination of the USPS, FedEx and UPS.
I will admit I purchased some unusual items in preparation for my cruise. Unusual in that I normally don’t have much of a need for waterproof items, but I did a month or so ago. I also bought some items we were recommended to bring on the trip to decorate our cabin door. You know, not my normal dog food, camera equipment and makeup remover purchases.
Let’s see how that tweaked Amaxon’s recommendations for this March day:
Okay. Emoji stamps and a Mother Goose hat. Date night has never looked more exciting, has it boys?
Now that I think about it, putting poop emojis on things at work would be a nice stress reliever. Hey! Cafeteria at work! More 🍟🍺and 🍪 and less💩!
Let’s scroll down a little to see if it gets normal.
Guitar strap. Interesting assumption, that after buying all those cello accessories I might need a guitar strap for it. Taken under advisement.
But the piece de resistance is the High Quality No Pocket Unisex Uniform Vest. You guys got that recommendation too, right? That has to be exactly what all the cool moms are wearing to the office these days. I am just assuming there are people out there placing ordering for both vitamins AND kicking purple work vests. Because nothing says dedication to your role as a cog in the machine than a spur-of-the-moment decision to purchase a purple uniform vest independent of your job’s normal dress code.
I think pairing it with the hat will really show them my promotability! I did a quick search and yes, I can also order my own name tag. I shall have my name and “Power-Mad Demagogue” etched underneath. I can’t wait to put the whole outfit together!
I’m so very ready for my vacation. I’ve had enough of work, and of stuff going on outside of work. The way things have been going, I assume while I’m away my home will be destroyed by a bus-sized chunk of blue “airplane ice.”
But I shall take my chances and hope Captain Stubing steers away from any hurricanes we stumble upon, and I’ll give my now adult son <gasp> the keys to the swinging singles pad, with the assumption it won’t be overrun with garbage and vermin by the time I return.
I declare new rules for Emergency Room prioritization. We have to throw out HIPPAA because you should have to loudly announce what’s wrong with you so the rest of us can stack rank you against the others to decide who goes in first using the following guidelines.
1. Heavily bleeding flesh wound (cause that’s a quick fix anyway)
2. Throwing up or about to. I don’t need that shit while I’m sitting waiting
3. Passing out from pain
4 Trouble breathing normally
5. Clammy skin the color of the parking garage.
6. Head injury
7. Uncontrollable swelling
8. 4 hour erections (see 7)
9. Swallowed a battery
10. Broken bone (not compound fracture)
11. Something stuck in a body orifice that you can’t get out
12. Thing for which you could go to a Minute Clinic if it was open
13. Place for you and your friend to sit while you both eat fruit cup with your fingers
Last night Tom took me to Ixtapa Cantina for guacamole and I had a margarita that literally made my eyes stop working properly. [Thumbs up, El Presidente!] In the spirit of Christmas, he wrote down Jody quotes because fair is fair after I wrote the Michael quotes while he was on anesthesia.
We then went drunk shopping at Walmart, which I think was a ripoff because I didn’t find anything good to make him buy me. My next morning comments are in italics.
🍹🍹🍹
[I tweeted these myself from the restaurant]
This margarita is made with cocaine or something. Oh my god who broke my eyes.
Oh my Hod two of you liked my tweet you guys are the ducking best. But not as good as these margaritas.
We’re gonna park in someone’s driveway and take pictures of their Christmas lights, like Americans. It is our right!
🍹🍹🍹
I need you to be that guy who would steal a balloon from a 7 year old.
Mikey says [about Tom] “But he’s a nice guy!” Like that’s an excuse.
[about going to jail after he steals a balloon]
Shit. I’m gonna have to be in a lesbian relationship again.
🍹🍹🍹
[About shopping for Tom’s daughter for Christmas She] needs drugs and cigarettes to trade in the big house.
🍹🍹🍹
I’m cutting this like the Incredible Hulk. Did I eat lunch today?
🍹🍹🍹
Dude you know what I could do with [$15,000]? Breasts up to here. Watch the Brady bunch. Teenage boobies.
🍹🍹🍹
This is the greatest meal ever in possibly my entire life! [Takes another bite] It’s kinda salty.
🍹🍹🍹
I just want to eat the outside shell of my burrito. It’s called a tortilla. The skin of my burrito.
🍹🍹🍹
[Regarding my favorite musician/band (other than Jeff Lynne) Luce]
Luce’s first name is Tom. So you’ll just have to wonder if I ever call out that name.
🍹🍹🍹
[Inside the restaurant] Can we take pictures of Christmas lights? Not In here.
🍹🍹🍹
It’s not a good time of year to get those water balloon multiple thingies. And I should know.
🍹🍹🍹
You know what would be the worst Christmas present? Wrapping paper. And thank you cards.
🍹🍹🍹
Crotchless pants? Do they sell them at Walmart? Sweet! Not saying I’ve bought them before. At least at Walmart.
[I completely do not remember saying this one AT ALL.]
🍹🍹🍹
[spotting a skewer of Peeps]
Look! This is impaled peeps! Look they stabbed you and it makes it taste better.
🍹🍹🍹
Can we buy a cello? My Amazon wish list is full of magical things.
🍹🍹🍹
Look it’s resting bitch face Barbie!
🍹🍹🍹
I love you. This lighting is very unflattering.
🍹🍹🍹
Why didn’t you tell me my cleavage was showing?! And I’m not buttoning up. People will have to deal with my boobage.
🍹🍹🍹
