DEATH ON A BUN

Or as an ABC reporter says, "meals of mass destruction" http://abcnews.go.com/WN/article/friendlys-grilled-cheese-burger-melt-tips-scales-shocks/story?id=11013926

FIRST MARTYRS OF ROME

See http://catholicexchange.com/2010/06/30/97145/

ECLIPSE

Saw “Eclipse” with the Mix people at the Regal in Rockville. I can understand why the fascination with werewolves, vampires etc lingers on. For a guy who’s supposed to be a werewolf, Jacob doesn’t have much body hair. Maybe he waxes it off.

Also, couldn’t help remembering Cassandra’s native American name is “farting wolf.”

DAY 166

Happy Birthday, Mom!

PETER AND PAUL

Today is the feast of Sts Peter and Paul: http://catholicexchange.com/2010/06/29/112890/

One would think Holy Mother Church would grant them separate feast days.

FUN IN THE SUN

I found out I have more in common astrologically with Bill Clinton and Jennifer Lopez than I do with Steve Martin or David Crosby.

DAY 165

Eat at Johnny Rockets: www.johnnyrockets.com

SO TYPICALLY BIDEN

Biden cusses at custard man: http://www.opposingviews.com/i/at-it-again-biden-calls-custard-shop-owner-a-smartass

To his credit, soft ice cream is bigger in Delaware than frozen custard. Still, there is a difference.

BUMMER

Turned in my census badge yesterday.

DAY 164

US Senator Robert Byrd is dead at age 92.

DAY 163

Found out R is having a boy. I'm happy for her and D.

DAY 162

So I am not the only one to sense a presence in the kitchen. And in this place in general.

WEEK 26

Market not so good, weather hot, feeling reasonably good. World cup still going on, anniversary of the Metro crash and Michael Jackson’s death. Census job supposed to end Sunday. Still thinking a lot about death, shadow people, parallel universes etc.

WEIRDEST YET

I hustled a guy for a reading on 18th St. He said "I pooped my pants." I said "Mazel Tov."

INTERESTED IN BECOMING A CATHOLIC?

See http://www.stmatthewscathedral.org/Description%20of%20Ministries.pdf or call 202-347-3215 ext 530

DAY 161

"Flame on, asshole."

Tobey Maguire

DAY 160

He truly doth work in mysterious ways: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxcDTUMLQJI

DAY 159

Saw a dwarf on 18th St. He asked me for money. It was kind of like on eye to navel level. I should keep a tally of dwarf sightings.

TOO MUCH SADNESS!

We need something happy. I can do without all the one-year anniversary stories of last year's Metro train wreck. And why does the media continue to follow the Robert Wone story when there's no actual murder trial?

LOVE RANCH

Saw "Love Ranch" last night. Liked the ending.

DAY 158

DC radio veteran Steve Eldridge died of cancer over the weekend. The viewing will be Wednesday, June 23, from 6 PM to 8 PM, with the funeral service Thursday, June 24, at 11 AM. Both will be held at the DeVol Funeral Home in Gaithersburg.

DAY 157

Blessed Solstice: http://catholicexchange.com/2010/06/21/83570/

DAY 156

Happy Father's Day!

DAY 155

I am seeing too many scary TV shows/Websites. A halogen light blew out over my head and scared me. And D thinks the ghost of K is wandering around here. I spend too much time alone in a control room at night.

WEEK 25

Lovely weather, stock market ended up up, lots of work, the possibility of more. True, people and pets are dying, but none of them mine.

Then there's the World Cup and the Gulf Oil Spill.

DAY 154

At least four peeps have said I was a good classmate. And Mom sez I was never a big freak.

DAY 153

This morning I hustled two drunks for readings and one of them told me he wanted a "bang-a-rooski." I ran into him about 15 minutes later and asked in a loud voice "did you get your bang-a-rooski?" It needed to be said.

DAY 152

Thinking a lot of about death, dysfunctionality. Need to think of happier things.

LIFE IS LONG

See http://catholicexchange.com/2010/06/15/130913

FRIED BUTTER

Apparently it's served on a stick. Yum.

DAY 151

If you don't respond to the Census the Bureau will send someone meaner and ruder than me.

DAY 150

Damn Fail Whale. Do I look like fucking Captain Ahab?

DAY 149

Had a corn dawg and some chocolate funnel cake nuggets at Celebrate Fairfax.

DAY 148

D says I have more courage than he does. So either he has very little or I have a lot.

WEEK 24

Week ended nicely marketwise and weatherwise. Still thinking about death, parallel universes, alternate realities, etc. Maybe someday I will learn to control my big mouth.

WHAT I PUT UP WITH

Unfortunately, I have to deal with too many people like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yW_sIKBfIk&feature=related

"Immigration"
"Uh, it has to be on the menu, sir."
"No, Dumba$$, I'm with Immigration."
"Really? Where?"

DAY 147

A 24-year-old Maryland state trooper was shot to death by an Applebee's customer who evidently didn't like his bill. Like me, the trooper and the waitperson were just doing their jobs.

IT JUST GOT BETTER

Woke up feeling sick, tired and grumpy, but improved by the end of the day. So did the market. And the weather.

DAY 146

Someone who apparently really wants to die: a guy talking on a cell phone while walking in front of my car at about 2:30AM. Against the light.

RUBBING ME THE WRONG WAY

Massaged one of the worst clients in a long time yesterday. Late, really picky, didn't shave her legs, didn't understand I wouldn't take her credit card, took a long time to get cash. And the bitch didn't tip.

DAY 145

Interesting factoid: cars need gas to keep moving. And more than one or two gallons. Thank you to the attendant at Washingtonian Chevron. And the hot guy who paid for my gas. And his date who was patient enough to put up with me.

DAY 144

Beautiful weather, could have used it over the weekend. Too bad I am too tired/stressed out to enjoy it.

DAY 143

Helen Thomas resigned. She never gave me any trouble personally. I wonder what people will say about me when I get to be her age.

DAY 142

Went to Vintage Virginia. Ate a corndog, saw a monkey. Did not ask his handler whether he spanked him.

DAY 141

More will be revealed later.

I've always wanted to say that.

WEEK 23

Working my ass off, mostly nice weather, Dow ended the week really badly. Oil spill in the Gulf still not contained – brings back memories of Tschernobyl. Still thinking about K’s death, but feeling better now.

DAY 140

My big pig is supposedly six years old today.

DAY 139

Mmmmm, Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream cake with an herb tea/goldenseal/echinacea chaser.

DAY 138

G says R told him I am a "Godsend."

DAY 137

DCRTV posted a picture of my back end, D said he recognized me by my shoes. R said he found that creepy. Does this mean I have to wear pants to work? Boots? Would he get more turned on by that? Eeeew.
