My neighbor had a big party yesterday and invited us to stop by. It was a great turnout and they all seemed to be having a blast.

She even had a big bonfire going up on the hill. We sat around the fire on hay bales and roasted marshmallows and told funny stories. It was great fun – but too dark for my camera to get any good snapshots of the group.

Why am I so hostile lately? It seems like I can’t find anything nice to say to anyone. I make comments on Facebook and get people all riled up. I send IMs and people just want to argue. I’m scared to send an email to anyone – I’ll probably just get my head bitten off for offending someone.

I’m going to just bite my tongue for a few days until my mood improves. After all, if you can’t say anything nice, you should not say anything at all.

Both of my favorite football teams are having rally bad seasons this year. The Titans have not won a single game. The Redskins lose games to the worst teams in the NFL.
It’s not much fun being a football fan this year.

At the convenience store the clerk was chit chatting with the guy in front of me. The clerk asked the guy how he was doing. That’s a normal type of question from a casual encounter.

The guy answered, “Just another day in paradise.”

I thought that was a funny response.

This morning I am not going into the office. I have a dentist appointment at 10:30. So it doesn’t make sense to sit in rush hour traffic and drive all the way into work, just to have to turn around an leave again in an hour.

I slept in, watched the news, and got online for a little while. Now I have to grab a shower and brush my teeth and get downtown. Let’s hope I get a good report from the dentist today. I don’t want any trouble with my teeth.
