Bobbie Labonte or George Clooney

this was better last night but I was drinking and the pointer just wasn't pointing in the correct spot and all was lost... so here it is again, sorta...

As you may or may not know, I'm happily married, aren't we all. That being said, 50% of all married women say they would marry the same guy, it just happens that that same guy is George Clooney....

Not the wifiepooh though, she likes Bobbie Labonte, the race car driver. He has gorgeous eyes. Myself and I have this on good authority cuz I heard a gal say it, "oh my you have pretty legs, for a guy". Out loud she said it, in a parking lot in Speedway In. as we were walking toward each other. I'm thinking it just slipped out but the guys I was with heard it too. The rest of the weekend it was.. hey pretty legs, grab me a beer or hey pretty legs, you and your pretty legs want to go for a walk... guys...

So I ask ya, is it gorgeous eyes or pretty legs?

made in china

one good thing about this blogging stuff is that reading others stuff is a nice distraction here at work, makes the time go by... and we've chatted about time in the past..... and that (reading others' stuff) is why I don't get a lot of ideas on paper, if ya know what I mean....

anyways...

it seems these days that everything is, has been or is going to be made in china, also, copies and knock offs... or so it has been said....
one would think that it wouldn't be long and they would be coping ( cloning ) people.... then again with their population being as it is maybe that has already happened....
but,
then again,
what do I know...
see ya

few months ago

another of the lighthouseI would have taken a picture of the flag
to show how hard the wind was blowing
but mine hand was so cold it was hurting
as I too my glove off for each pic...
how are things where you're at??





time

Have you ever given any thought to time? Sometimes time goes by fast and at other times it's slow, so slow, to slow, is it ever going to end slow.
And, we're all running out of time... living on borrowed time.

Oh how nice, Kansas's dust in the wind is on the radio....

What is the difference between just in time and on time?
I work a 12 hour swing shift that starts a 7 and ends at 7, 7am 7pm, 7pm 7am, no matter 7 to 7.
We get a break every 2 hours for a half an hour, 30 min's. 9, 11, 1, 3, 5 but it's every 1.5 hours that our break comes, no? I return at 9:30, 11:30, 1:30, 3:30, and 5:30...
Also, it seems like it's forever for the break to get here and it's over like that... 1/2 hour that was fast.
That say time runs on a time line, mine is like a cork screw...
And gravity seems to have a pull on my time. The hour hand is at 12 high and it quickly goes to half past and then it seems to take forever to get back to the top of the hour, gravity is pulling it down.
My days are like that as well... they start off at 6am, when the alarm goes off and quickly run down to 6pm and then begrudgingly back up to 6am. Which would explain why the night shift is so slow, gravity... but then again how does one explain how time flies by when one sleeps??
The year is the same, with Jan at the top with the months passing gently downward and bottoming out the end of june into july and turning slowly upward late august working up to a new year and so on. I guess the years stack up behind me like miles driving down a highway.
In the end, time and life is like the last firework on the night, a bright streak of light going straight up into the night sky only to go out in a flash and then darkness....
There you have it, time in a nut shell or from a nut...
and it's time to finish this off...
see ya

monday

well monday was kind of a wasted day, having to work tonight I slept late and then took a nap around 2pm. up 5pmish, dindin and the off to work a 6.
Doggie dog wanted out monday morn around 9 so that's our starting point.
That was our 1st hour, him running his ass off, fun times, if you're a dog.
Back at home I have some leftover snow blowing to do. In my hurry to get to work sunday, all I cleaned was the driveway so now it's time to clean up the whole driveway, the neighbor lady's driveway and the sidewalks. Finishing that around noon, I take junior back to work.
Back home once again I check to see what the temperature is as I have the tree and all the fixings in the truck, 30, which is 20 degrees warmer than last thursday at which time the lock on the storage locker was froze. Lucky me, the lock opens, truck is emptied we're good to go.
While the I spy one of the kiddies seats with wheels, you know the ones, you put your kid in and they hot wheel around the house. It was Skys, I take it home to junior and his baby can use it. At 7mts she's at the almost de-cling-on stage, time for her first set of wheels. It's now home for a shower, load of laundry and to bed.
I guess the day wasn't a total waste now was it..
see ya
