I Am Cranky (Blue)
As the title indicates, today I am cranky. Although currently there are several things in this ole life that I could be cranky about, there is one in particular this afternoon. Namely, the fact that the twinge/pinched nerve in my left shoulder seems to have thrown off my right shoulder and neck as well, leading to a general all-over low grade pain. Not a terribly great pain - just enough to remind me, whenever I turn around too fast or move suddenly, that there are some days when the dice continually roll against you.
But hey, I'm the kinda guy that when life gives me lemons Ithrow them to the ground, smash them underfoot to little pieces and swear vendetta against all lemons in perpetuity make lemonade. So why not take my mind off of my headaches and backaches by trying to amusing myself in that special way my friends have come love grudgingly tolerate endure?
It didn't escape my notice that Heather put together a list of "Things I Want To Do" for when CS returns after a lengthy absence. Well I hope CS didn't think I'd neglect to put together my own list of things to do when he comes home. Oh no, you don't get off that easy my friend - you've been gone too long for that. Needs must when the devil drives, so here we go: Some Things To When CS Returns.
1. Drink beer at local.
2. Drink beer at local.
3. Go a for a walk on Wolly Beach while CS explains to me why bad things happen to good people. Or where babies come from. I haven't decided yet.
4. Drink beer at local.
5. When I wake in the small hours of the morning from that awful recurring nightmare - the one where I'm walking down a dark street alone at night and Derek Jeter pulls alongside me in Volkswagen Cabriolet and looks at me with those empty soulless eyes and asks to 'go for a ride' because he wants to 'show me something special in the trunk' - call and wake up CS so he can tell me a soothing story.
6. Drink beer at local.
7. Paint CS's head for the Red Sox playoff run. Definitely in the team colors, maybe also with an intimidating slogan like I Am the Come Death, Destroyer of All or possibly I Like Eggs.
8. Drink beer at local.
9. Book some time on local cable access television for our own D & C show. This one has loads of possibilities, including (but not limited to): Dance Dance Revolution, a segment where we opine on political current events solely through interpretive dance; The Magic of Plaster, shadow puppet impersonations of our favorite celebrities; and My Microwave, Myself - cooking for the kitchen-challenged.
10. Leaving this spot open for drinking beer somewhere besides the local.
11. Attend "Bring Your Child To Work Day" with CS. Answer questions about how I could possibly be CS's child by answering "aren't we all children of CS?' followed by speaking in tongues, snake-handling, maniacal laughter, or rhythmic chanting and swaying.
Good times, good times.
