BAH!

That reminds me of this drama exercise we used to do where you'd have to try to say a phrase in as many different ways as possible. Like "I love you."

I love you!
I love you?
I LOVE you!!

It was fun.

So, today's word is bah!

To which I say bah I have to go to the Dr now.

Well, my lj explains things a bit more, but stupid story short, I've been having chest pains since yesterday afternoon, the Dr thinks it's stress (though I disagree) and prescribed me valium. I'm a 1950's housefrau.

* reads LJ bits , gains a modicum of understanding *
Ah yes, see I have the Mitrol Valve Prolapse myself. I've not been to a doctor for anything other than "Um I think I've something like Strep, *Shows throat*" "yes, here. Have an antibotic perscription." in more than about 15 years. I've found that for me, stress at work and aspects of diet have negative effects, and time with friends and doing fun things have a positive effect. So In my totally non professional opinion, Have more fun with friends. *sends dreams of Browncoat parties at Dragon*Con* oh and Cookies!

Quote:

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Mal: Because the other side of the road was the only place it could live life on its own terms, without being meddled with.

Zoë: Because that’s where the job was, Sir.

Wash: It followed a really hot girl chicken that could kill it with its pinky. Do chickens have pinkies? No? We’ll I don’t know then.

Jayne: The money was better over there. (mutters) Lousy seven percent...

Kaylee: To meet shiny new chickens and see the sights.

Simon: That’s where the Alliance was hiding its sister.

River: To get to the other side.

Inara: It just suddenly, for no apparent reason, decided to pick up and abandon the luxurious life it had on this side of the road. That’s not odd, is it?

Book: It was a pilgrimage. Wracked with guilt over the atrocities it had committed, the chicken decided to devote the remainder of its life to God in a desperate search for redemption. Just a guess.

Jubal: What did you say? Am I a road?

YoSafBrige: Because you were over there, sweetie.

The Operative: The chicken’s motivations are not my concern. Getting it across the road is.

Thank you thank you!

Grampa's doing very well. He went out with his Korean War buddies last night for dinner and stayed out past 8:30 and my grandmother was sitting at home fussing about him. It was great.

That's right, focus on September.

My mantra has become "Do you want this or to go to London?" To which I keep answering myself "London" and put whatever it is back. It's effective, methinks.

My brother nearly fell out of one once.

We were little, I was maybe 10, so was 8ish. He was really skinny when he was little,too. Anyway, we were riding in an old wooden one that just had a lap bar, but it didn't go down far enough to hold us in and we were really bouncing around. I was hanging on to the bar with one hand and my brother with the other and it was a good thing, because at one point he came completely out of the seat and I had to pull him back in. It was terrifying.

They must not have had very good height regulations back then.

Spinland: you need to go to Carowinds (on the state line of NC and SC right below Charlotte)and Ride the Scooby-doo roller coaster. It's exactly what you're talking about. I can ride the fast upside down corkscrew hanging from the bottom of the rail with your feet dangling rides all day long. But Scooby-Doo over in HannaBarbara land (the kids side) is one that will make ya think you're about to get tossed out on your head. For Fast I recommend the Aerosmith Rockin' Roller Coaster at Disney World's MGM studio. All indoors with funky lights and 0 to what feels like 80 in about .25 secs.

Ahhh, the sweet, sweet blissful freedom that is the weekend! Yay! this has been one STRESSFUL week, and I'm SOOOOOOOOO glad that it's over!

A nice ride on a roller coaster sounds GREAT. Too bad I live in cold, snowy Utah where riding a roller coaster in the middle of winter (and one wet week, I might add) might be hazardous to one's health. Eh, I'll settle for curling up in front of my television to watch Firefly all weekend. As long as I don't have to read any more of this stupid Tristrham Shandy crap book I'll be happy. And as long as a replacement for reading said book is Firefly then my world may as well be complete.

[pet peeve rant}

*phone rings*
*I answer*

Me: Good afternoon, name of my church here

Person on other end: Who's this?


Can you think of a ruder way to answer the phone? "Who's this?" Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh.

So, whenever someone answers the phone like that (and it happens often), I always pause for a moment. Count to five. And then I respond extremely pleasantly:

This is the church administrator. May I help you?

When what I want to say is "I'm not telling you anything until you learn proper phone etiquette, you babbling imbecile!!"

Yes people are rude. Rude people cause stress. Stop answering the phone.
If we could space all the rude people and all the people with low IQ because they choose to not learn. (I've nothing against folk who can't help it, just the ones who can and don't) We'd be much better off.

Our phone at work is a nightmare mainly cause of the stoopid ones, the rude ones are ok, they just put the phone down on with out saying anything.

The stoopid ones however...

Me -Good morning (work shpeal)
Them - ey luv, wen zat planaquariam thing on?

the first Planetarium show is on a 2:30 today, the aquarium is one of the permanent galleries and open all the time.

y got no planaquarium show before then?

No sorry, they are at the same time, every day, starting from 2:30 onwards...

why not?

sorry?

why arn't there any in the morning?

I assume it due to morning visitor numbers, we do do show throughout the day on school holidays..

what time are they on tomorrow?

they are one at the same times everyday, 2:30, 3:15...

weekends as well?

yes, at the weekens theres also a childrens show at...

what time's that?

1:15

so theres no childrens show on week days?

no

why not?

because the children are all in school.

so what time are they on?

the childresn show is 1:15 on weekends, then 2:30, 3:15 and the last show is 4:0...

when they finish?

the last show is five minute pats four

when?

five minute past four, 4:05

when do you close?

we are open 10 till five every day.

are you open at the weekends?

yes.

when?

ten till five everyday.

whered I get tickets?

they're first come first serve, so you'll have to be quick, and you get them from the information desk in the Atrium.

Wha?

The atrium, ground floor entrance hall.

Can I book tickets?

No, unfortunetly not.

Why not?

Because they are distributed on a first come first serve basis.

so you can't get them in advance?

You can get them any time on the day, but only in person.

Could I get some for tomorrow?

Only if you turn up tommorrow to pick them up.

so how am I meant to get tickets?

You have to come to the desk and pick them up.

can't yeh just stick us some aside?

No, sorry.

Why not?

Because that isn't the way it works.

Well that stupid! how am I meant to get tickets! I got to come all the way from the wirral! I should be able to book em, what happens if there arn't any left? what are yeh gonna do then!

I'm afraid that just the way it works, you have to turn up as early as you can, its the only fair way.

Fair! how it f****n fair if I can't get them?

I'm afraid thats the only system we've found that works. Is there anything else I can help you with?

yeah, whats the planaquarium?


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bear in mind her, that the tickets are all free, the museum is free, jesus even the buses are free to a lot of them. Things have been done the same way since the planetarium opened, with only breif periods spent discovering how well other systems don't work.
This phone call usually takes place at about 12;30, so by the time they drag their arses out of bed and slope in its 2pm anyway, and this journey from the wirral that they make sound like a huge epic journey, I do every morning for 9 oclock.

Oh yes, the reason I can repeat this conversation so well is because I have it five times a day, with even the same people sometimes.

I need a new job. One where I never have to meet the public. They smell.

JH: Well, the planquarian is actually a room aside from the planatarium and the aqarium where the two mediums happen to collide. You should come in and check out the experience! It's like drowning and floating in space at the same time!

So I asked if there was more than one opening (position...... ummm job) It was meant to imply that I would like to work there too. with the not public, 'cause they smell.

oh! i'm so relieved, actually nothing dirty about it, i thought you meant that you wanted a job where I am now! I was hoping against hope that you were making a really obscure joke, and not actually that crazy.

But now you have explained, I can see both your intended meaning and the dirty joke.

Thank you.

Well, there was never meant to be a dirty joke. But it's like they say, I guess anything can be made to sound dirty. Don't believe me? Try this:
pick 1 noun and 1 verb. got 2 harmless words?
Place them in the following sentence:

Select to view spoiler:


"I'd like to (verb) her (noun)."

see?
Anyway, yes I'm crazy, but honestly the public has completely lost it. I'm not sure how much more I can take, I think Serenity's idea of being a Hermit is the way to go.

I don't particularly want to be a hermit, i like a lot of humans, sadly just not 99.9% of them, or atleast, the ones I seem to come into contact with.

I was thinking more one of those cult set-ups (er, obviously with out the religion group sex and total nut job-ism) But ike a little community of buildings populated by carefully chosen people, and the main feature -a very large electrified perimeter fence with armed guards.

I'd be happy.

Ah, the joys of telephones.

A friend of mine had a part time job whilst in college at take out and delivery pizza shop. Every night without fail he would get THE call.

Hello _____ Pizza.

(Long pause,) Yeah I'd like to get a pizza.

Okay what kind?

Total silence.

Would you like to hear our specials?

Total silence.

Okay what size would you like?

Total silence.

At about this point they would either put Mr. Decisive on hold or ask him to call back later when he knew what he wanted.


So imagine, if you will, a college kid who has gotten himself so stoned that he knows he wants a pizza, but can't handle the concept of choosing a size and toppings. My friend said the record was on one Saturday night they 8 of these calls.

Which is why we need to pool all our money together to buy a plot of land where we can have our own commune.

There's an abandoned renn faire about 10 minutes from my parents' house that's for sale.

Didn't we already discuss this? Who was the secretary that day? There should be transcripts somewhere...notes I say! And Seryn, can we have the group sex with out the religion? Or was that very wrong of me to suggest? Bad twg. Bad. Bad. Bad.
