Accomplishment

Posted on by

I have brought food to my late-working wife and hungry mancub.

I have fed the cat.

I have watched a sign language video with the mancub, again.

I have helped an eager mancub brush his teeth.

I have washed the reluctant and screaming mancub.

I have read the tearful mancub numerous books.

I have put the sleepy mancub to bed.

I have remembered to transfer the loads and run the dryer, as I was asked.

I have paid the bills.

I have converted all three computers I am intimately involved with from Internet Explorer to Mozilla Firefox, with anti-adware add-ons.

I have converted and consolidated all of my AOL and Yahoo Instant Messenger programs over to Trillian freeware.

I have made two entries and some snarky comments on LiveJournal.

What more, really, is there to do in life?

    • Ah, no. Tomorrow is the first of this week’s two “Sorry You Got Layed Off” lunches at Roswell’s finest eateries.

      I could whip up a nice brown bag o’ vittles for my overworked spouse, but I think she relishes getting out of the old office for a spell during the Season.

      • Which only serves to remind me that after I went to the Pointless Kroger in downtown Decatur, which didn’t have my bread, I failed to go to the Good Kroger, which does, and now I cannot make my banana sammich for tomorrow’s lunch.

        Drat!

        • We’ll be going to the very elegant and peanut-ridden LongHorn Steakhouse in Roswell if you wish to join us.

          Just think, you too could make uncomfortable sorry-you’re-going-away conversation with someone you really didn’t enjoy working with in the first place.

          • That’s very sweet of you, but I’m the dumbass who told my friend’s employer she was remarkably well preserved for her age. And I even liked her.

            Which is not to say I couldn’t be convinced that some chili cheese fries wouldn’t be a good idea at some other time.

        • Hey that little Kroger is great!

          When all you need is …. hmm … no, they don’t have that … what about … no, not that either … ummm … ok! If you are looking for a heaping helping of disappointment, they are perfect! Everything else they are out of.

            They do, however, have tennis balls, at a whopping $3.99 per can.

            And all the Carnation milk you can drink.

            (Carnation milk is the best in the land;
            Here I sit with a can in my hand –
            No tits to pull, no hay to pitch,
            You just punch a hole in the son of a bitch.
