(-: it's nice to know that there are still friendly and happy people in these rough economic times. just the other day, i saw a guy standing beside the on-ramp to the interstate giving everyone the thumbs up sign. i thought to myself, what a nice guy, reminding everyone that despite all our prob... 2008-12-14 http://www.pleonast.com/user/tu_madre?l=5&entryID=606813 so as you have probably gathered, we have cats. but what might be news to you is that we have added a third cat to our household. but i'm getting ahead of myself. a great many people do not like cats. i used to be this way but i'm starting to kinda warm up to them. kinda. although i have made great strides in my understand of why people don't like cats. cats are arrogant and stuck up. whereas dogs will lick your face and follow you EVERYWHERE you go, cats will sit off to themselves and look at you with disdain as if to say "you feed me AND you expect me to let you pet me?" cats DO show some emotion and they can even be lovey-dovey, but they like to be by themselves and don't want human intruders cramping their style. side note: kittens LOVE human attention. the little spastic furrballs are hilarious to watch whilst playing. so we got a new kitten who is orange in color. we introduce her to chloe and lola (our "old" cats) and the resulting chaos was not good. h... 2008-12-07 http://www.pleonast.com/user/tu_madre?l=5&entryID=599432 so the other day i got to thinking...hey, why not sell off some of my amazingly huge dvd collection?

chuck norris, steven seagal, or jean-claude van damme? and why? dan out yes, i voted. only had to stand in line for AN HOUR AND A HALF! 2008-11-05 http://www.pleonast.com/user/tu_madre?l=5&entryID=594183 we're here in indianapolis again, visiting mckenna and family. my tummy is full of mcdonalds. give me about an hour and it won't be full anymore... it only took 1 year, 1 month and 6 days, but i've finally gained enough weight to wear my wedding band. they gave me a ring that was too big and it kept falling off. now it stays on. my wife has fed me well. gas is absolutely tumbling in price. i'm lovin' it! $2.21 in bowling green. an even $2.00 in indianapolis. the cats are growing like weeds. which is probably why they like playing in the weeds behind the welding shop. no longer do they stay right behind our trailer. and they still haven't killed anything yet. i want mouse massacres soon! i've started printing again at work. my boss rewarded me with some of the most difficult jobs i've ever had to print. people in indiana do NOT know how to park. mcdonalds makes some REALLY good sweet tea...go figure... i do not like daylight savings time. i think it only serves to make the day... 2008-11-01 http://www.pleonast.com/user/tu_madre?l=5&entryID=589300 with the invention of pleonast and the massive popularity of it with the florida college crowd, i sometimes wonder how it will affect our class reunions. i mean now, more than ever, we are able to keep up with fellow classmates over the years. we know everything about each other already! what catching up will we have to do? nothing! for example, here is how i feel my 10 year reunion is going to go: ---------------- me: hey man, how's it going? fellow classmate: pretty good, can't complain. got married, have two children. me: yeah, i read about all that on pleonast. saw their pictures. you have some beautiful children. fc: thank you. me: so what do you do for a living these days? fc: i work at (insert whatever company here) where i manage (insert large amount here) employees and make about (insert even larger amount here) grand a year. me: oh yeah, i remember reading about that promotion on pleonast. congratulations. so have you taken any trips lately?
