Another Day In Paradise

today my hair parted in a different place on its own, i'm pretty sure on purpose to show me the massive # of gray hairs that i have missed. pretty soon i will be going to the hairdresser to have my white hair chopped, blued, rolled and "set" under a massive dryer. then i will have to wear one of those funny plastic rain bonnets, rotate which side of my head i sleep on, and only wash it once a week (when i go back to the hairdresser again.) repeat. next thing you know, i'll be referring to everyone as "sonny" and holding up the express lane at walmart to write a check for my denture cream.

curley boo johnson is coming to prescott. if you don't know who he is, you need to watch more futurama, in particular the episode where professor farnsworth genetically engineers a team of super-mutants to take on the harlem globetrotters after they land in central park to challenge earth's honor on the basketball court, for no apparent reason. (FYI earth loses.) anyway, curley boo was a member of the globetrotters and is possibly the greatest dribbler of all time. i'm not sure why the heck ol' curley wants to come to prescott, but i could probably learn something from him since i am the worst dribbler of all time. this pairs nicely with being the worst overall basketball player of all time despite my brief return from retirement in law school where i scored a lifetime high of 5 points in one season. (i'm a good cheerleader though! this one's for you heidi: P-U-T-I-T-I-N put it in, put it in!) i am tempted to attend, but real life people never live up to the expectations you gain from seeing them in animated science fiction sitcoms.

i have a fun afternoon planned ... playing pirate mad libs with andy, who has graciously let me camp out in his office for the week while i'm in limbo. in exchange for my taking care of his cuticles.

we pillage, we plunder, we rifle and loot

we kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot

yo ho, yo ho a pirate's life for me.

p.s. the tape-butt war continues to ravage the office. obviously gray hair does not make you old. :)
