All Dressed Up Like A Switchblade Knife

Ok this sleeping in is messing with me. I get more sleep and I forget more things. What is up with that? Left Kidlets guitar leaning against the wall in my hallway. Now poor Kidlet and my Mom have to rush to get it and deal with the alarm. Doh.

But I do seem to notice that the extra sleep and the lack of working 50+ hour weeks has left me feeling more...present. Hard to describe, as rested or awake is not quite what I am looking for. More like, "oh wow look at the world!" Which is pretty frickin sad. 6 years of working over 2300 hours a year will wear ya down. At this rate, by July I will be working on May - if we are really f'in lucky- and I will be in school. The fact that I had to cancel my summer trip bites, but in the end the trade off of school now and quit sooner makes it worth it. Life moves fast, as the commercial likes to say and kidlet is already half way through 7th grade. Graduation will be here sooner than it appears and then, oh happy days, I can move. Hopefully Atlanta won't be out of water by then :P

This weekend, Kidlet is going with my mom to a pearl show while I hang with Gramps and then Kidlet and my dad are reviewing for her math final. Then we hit the mall (eek) for a wee bit of slacks and shirts shopping. Other than that, I think my weekend looks like one thing...laundry. Oh JOY!

And now, I present Foxboro Hot Tubs - Mother Mary for your listening pleasure. There is no video, cause if there was it would give away their super secret squirrel identity...Green Day. C'mon guys, give us an album already!
