Smooth or Rough (WWC)

T is for Tink!

Dear Tink:

Please excuse Jackie for being late to the Weekly Words Challenge, she had explosive diarrhea.

Sincerely,

Jackie's Id

Oh I'm joking... in no way did I have explosive diarrhea today, or any other type of diarrhea for that matter. I have always wanted to write an "excuse" like that, so I took my chance!

The truth is, I had a long, busy day and I am covering applications while someone is out on vacation this week, and then we were back in recording with My Band, SAP tonight, so I haven't even had time to sit down and gather my thoughts!!

My apologies for the late entry... as well, it's not going to be a very big one this week... still, I hope you enjoy.

These photos of the buttercups in my yard are pretty Smooth
(or as best as I can do for Smooth!)

I caught a pretty 'smooth' angle anyway!

This Sign welcoming you to Mississippi is just past a very rough neighborhood.

Finally, I unveil my abstract painting, "The Wrath",
which I think is hideously, sickeningly rough... Don't worry,
my next painting is going to really kick ass... I swear!
(cuz I am just getting warmed up!)

That's all for this week ladies and gentlemen... go to bed and get your rest for Hump Day, coming up tomorrow! Who knows what could happen...

What are you talking about you did a great job. I really liked the flowers, and I though that the painting was colorful. I'm sure I have a way less critical eye for paintings.

Have fun recording!!

You're excused. :P

Are you kidding me? Those flower shots are AWESOME. Seriously. That second one is frameable.

Kcinnova, Thank you!

R.E.H. Well that's o.k., I've missed one before totally, I always look forward to seeing yours.

Gman! Thanks, well I know what I'm striving for in the paintings, but it will be better next time!

Tink! Thanks, maybe I should frame that one. I thought it was interesting.

Thanks Jay! Maybe that's what I should send you, a painting (when I get one I'm proud of).

When Potato Salad Goes Bad

Image
I have always loved Far Side cartoons... this one about Potato Salad going bad was one of my favorites. Just the mental image of spoiled food pulling a gun gives me a giggle. Larson rules. However, bad food in the fridge is sometimes no laughing matter. I recently let some broccoli sprouts go beggin' and they tried to take the entire household hostage, guests and all. Funny thing about broccoli sprouts, they are against guns and drugs, and totally for Animal Rights but they carry tazers. It's really confusing, and a lesson hard learned. :) So anyway, yeah another make up post I did for yesterday. So sue me... not that it makes a big impact. We've had internet connection problems, which are still ongoing. The technician arrived in decent time and said our equipment was o.k., and that there had been an issue going on in our area, here and there... they were working on it. Maybe it will be resolved soon. I sure hope so, it's just agitating and it goes down at the worst tim...

Birthday Blast

Yes, I think I will just claim 15 again, and stay there. Looking back, my teen years were worry free. I mean, there was the bi-weekly broken heart and all, but geez. It was a time when people said, "You've got your whole life ahead of you." and it was still true... wait, well it's still true, just now there is less of it ahead of me. That's all. No, I actually didn't get a cake, or any kind of party... Didn't really care. Basically, I just took off two extra days and treated myself to a 4 day weekend in honor of my birthday. Today, June 22nd is the actual date. However, my honorary "celebration" of it began when I got off work Friday night. We met up with some friends at the Midtown Sekisui, and then came home to watch a few more episodes of "Weeds", a tv series that many of you are probably familiar with, one that my 'ol' man' got me hooked on. Finally we have finished the series thanks to Netflix Streaming , and can await...

Thirsty

For those of us who are a slave to the grind, we've almost made it through another work week, that's a great blessing! For those of you who don't have to report to anyone for your paycheck, well it's another beautiful day, so enjoy! Richie went back to work today after Monday's oral surgery, still felt a bit loopy he said but all-in-all it has been a swift recovery. I'm glad... I did the best I could to take care of him. So the weekend is in sight, and I'm trying to think of fun things to do. It's so hot weather-wise, and I don't mean to complain but I hate feeling sweaty and smelly. I like being pleasantly fragrant and sassy. Nothing much to report otherwise, so I will let you go with a few cute graphics about the heat, one of which I stole from BBC's blog again (he always has the funniest cartoons). So there you go. Happy Thursday. v
