shit-burgers for lunch!

and also: That is SO not the milk i ordered!!!


What a day! horrible! so horrible, but then fantastic, in a way that only mr brown can do.....by that i mean crazy chaos.

Firstly, the computer at work comnpletely melted down. It wasn't my fault, and
that point was recognized, but still i was the one to press the button. so my luck. they asked me to install a new printer for the work computer, so i did what anyone with any computer sense would do: I unpacked the printer, plugged it all in, then restarted windows before installing the new printer driver. simple. well, apparently not so, because some people leave their computers running 24-7 for 8 months without ever re-booting, not even once, on a machine connected to the internet that performs automatic software updates. so naturally, when i restart windows for the first time in forever, i get "the blue screen of death!" So we have to call Geek Squad to come fix it, but the guy says the hard drive isn't reading the emergency install disk, and the machine is fucked. Not my fault, but still, i'm the one who pressed that freakin' button! Shit!

so i felt like crap on top of feeling like crap for a sideways demotion, and was on the verge of breakdown, and all i could think of after work was going to the dr to get these hives looked at (caused by an allergic reaction to somethin', and exacerbated by the ten million advil i took because of cramps, yes cramps on top of the top of the rest!!!) but stopped to get a slush first because life was that bleak. But who do i seee at the gas station? None other than Mr. Wizard, aaron springer! fantastic! then Mr. Brown has poor li'l Keanu drive him all over and back to find me, and they drag me out to some kinda underground art/crossdressing gala secret party event! in the end, alcohol mixed with anti-histamines, cross dressers and a crazy "i give it all up for fuck's sake" attitude left me feeling so much better, and waking up in a pile of glitter and gold stars helped a bunch too!

What a day!

The best part of that day is people thinking we were fabulous and wild! And we were!

And that's saying a lot, considering the who was there. I will always be there to bring cheer when you're blue! And now you know why I luvs the glitter so!

I'll make sure there's alway stars in your pocket and some wine in your tummy!

Mr. G.W. Brown
