went up to visit Steph sunday
took up a case of beer for other visitors
she has 4 new neighbors
sat awhile
should have brought a chair
the ground was damp
not bad though
my ass didn't get wet wet
I sat there
thinking
talking
remembering
listening
it's a rather noisy place
beside the cars from the near by highway
geese
crows
birds
there was deer poop to
I'm still mad
I'm still sad

there's plenty of math to do there

born on dates
end on dates
years in between

taters

I work with this guy I call Dan, I call him that cuz that's his name.
He used to work with me, still does just a different job, but back in the day we did the same job. The job we did is called scalping ingots, we ran, operated a Scalper, huge milling machine, planer if you will.... I still do.

any ways

some where along he line he picked up or was given the nickname spud or tater. which because of his job..... wait for it... he became "scalped tater"..
funny huh?

anyways

we have here a program where if your kid is going to college they can get hired on as a summer help.. sumare and sumaren't.. hahaha

anyways

Dans son got a summer help job and if you haven't guessed yet he was called.... wait for it.... tatter tot....

anyways

a few years later his daughter got a summer help job and seeing how we already had tatter tot, she became..... sweet tatter..

and when they were all together in the breakroom... we had tatter salad...

the things one thinks of when one is hungry...
so how are things in your world?

the thoughts of a rock... if rocks thought

I was walking the dog the other day, cuz that's what you do when you have a dog, walk him, lots....
which gives one lots of time to think, depending on the length of the walk = how much thinking time there is...

anyways

the days before said walk it was cold again, 10 to 15 degrees and the landing, between the breakwall and the land was froze over again.. and I noticed some kids playing around down there.... and the day of said walk there is a rock on the ice...

anyways


here's where the thinking whilst walking comes in..

anyways

the rock:

I'm flying, I'm FLYING... weeeeEEEeeeee

shit, I'm falling ... I'm fallllLLLlling

I've thumped, thudded, bounced... never clunked..

so where am I??

nice view though, I can see every which way and a long way, too

ohhh the sun feels nice..

wait, why is my bottom cold, why is there ice on my bottom???

I've had ice on my top but never my bottom, whatever the sun feels nice and warming...

huh, now what, why is my bottom wet, it's not raining?? aahhh boy the sun feels nice..

wait, think, ice, wet, sun, warm
wet, sun, warm, ice
sun, warm, ice, wet
