Shuffling to the bus

Looked up from my shuffle to the new temp terminal to see a pickup alongside. All hail the three giant Doggie Diner heads. Darn, no camera, once again. And my lo-tech phone doesn't have one; I stepped off the tech train for a while. But apparently these dogs get around: http://laughingsquid.com/doggie-diner-dog-heads/

 

 

 

 

Brrrr. Dug out the big sweater. I am grateful for warmth and taps that open to deliver clean water. Oh, and cornmeal pancakes.

Here’s a job I might consider, if I could do it part time: mortuary transport driver. Two years ago or so I cajoled H. into letting me drive a hearse to Illinois, bearing someone on their next to-last earthly journey. It was an honor, really. Plus we stopped on the way back and ate fried walleye, back in the days I was eating more of that kind of stuff.

Indiana Recycling, another try

What to do with all those old toilets hanging around--a BIGGER version. No, they're not in my back 40. Southern Indiana, last week.

Vikings vs Italians

More tales from the commute: boring, I know, but it was SO EASY yesterday. Ah, Columbus Day. B. picked me up at the bottom of the hill at the end of the day and I started in rhapsodizing about the rather traffic-free ride over. Not too many raging drivers. "Well, it is Indigenous People's day," I commented. He slammed on the brakes and said GET OUT OF THE CAR. Then I remembered he's half Italian. "Well," I sniffed, "The Vikings were actually visiting North America long before he made his way to the Bahamas." I'm a mongrel Norwegian, so I had to speak up. He was just kidding. We had spaghetti, meatballs and some kind of Chinese green for dinner. Then I watched Austin & Santino make dresses for 2 ladies in Asheville, NC--another great city, but I digress...

Little did I know what Disney Radio has been up to. But I know now, thanks to my ride in this morning, in a Honda tricked out with Mickey and Minnie seat covers and redolent with the lingering memory of old take-out. The girl singer was shrieking an aqueous buzz, I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH real HARD I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I SHAKE MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH. At least half of the 8.5-mile span (approach to approach).

Andy enterprises: run, run, run

Oh boy, an Andy show to visit in Indianapolis when I'm there in 2 weeks.   There was a flash mob to kick it off.

Hug a comma?

Today is National Punctuation Day. Perhaps you'd like to cook a meatloaf in celebration.
