Are You Really You?

I dunno.... It's one thing to not have anyone reading or commenting on this. I didn't expect to have the world beat a path to this page to see what I had to say about the mindlessness that is my life and send me revealing pictures. In fact, if something weird happened and it did get a rush of traffic, I'd probably freeze like Dr. Johnny Fever when he realized that people actually listened to him on the radio.

But to get comments that are just random spam-bots pimping their websites...that sux.

So, I turned on the 'word verification' thingie - the doohickey that shows an image of some random number/letter combination that you have to type in to post a comment. That, in turn, proves you're a real human being. Lucky you.

Hope it doesn't turn anyone away from saying "hi."

Good News / Bad News

So...the good news is that Halloween stuff is out on the shelves now. Noticed it last weekend or so.

Love Halloween. Love it.

Tough to find a good inexpensive werewolf mask. I have a plan for a decent wolfman makeup job that I've never had the need to try out. I guess if I were the type to go out in public (like, say, to a Halloween party) I'd give it a go. Saw an official Friday the 13th hockey mask that's kinda lax in the quality/durabilty department, but it gave me a cheap idea for a costume I could chuck in a bag and take to work since they generally have a contest and hardly anyone dresses up so I'd be almost guaranteed to get a prize.

Bad news?

Right next to the Halloween stuff was the Christmas stuff.

Remember when you didn't have to worry about being annoyed by Christmas until Thanksgiving or so? Otherwise known as "the good old days." Now I'm in full-on Bah-Humbug mode by the middle of August. Especially since we've been dealing with 'Christmas Crap,' as we've been affectionately calling it, for a few weeks now at work and it's put us behind. Well, that and first shift being a bunch of lazy good-for-nothings.

Ah well....what else is new, right?
