A puzzle for you...

Earls Restraunt

(My favorite)

A bobby pin...

What do these two things have in common?

Stay tuned and I will tell you

tomorrow....

A pigeon adventure....

This is a porky fat pigeon....lol I named him Mr. Pigeon. The wild life in the city sure have gotten fat....This poor pigeon hobbled around and wouldn't get off the road, I figured he was ok...I just wanted a picture of the fat little guy...

Well I was wrong...see the car? The woman started yelling at the pigeon...hollering at it "shoo pigeon...shooo..." She thought she was doing a favor to the pigeon, she didn't want the poor little fellow to get driven over, but she refused to get out of her car and chase it away...So she beckoned some help from some strangers.

*Dave (*not his real name) walked up to the pigeon and looked at it, laughed a bit...and communicated the woman who told him he should kick it...so *Dave kicked the poor pigeon. This pigeon was stubborn and stayed sitting...

*Dave didn't know what to do, luckily for him our hero came to the rescue...*Dave moved out of the way and watched in wonder...

As *Lucy (*not her real name) helped pick up the pigeon....with her bare hands (yuck!) and carried the poor pigeon out of the way. Now I must apologize as the picture I snapped of *Lucy is quite possibly the worst picture anyone could post on a blog...So I am sorry *Lucy that I snapped away so quickly to see you pick up mr. pigeon and save the day.. To bad a few minutes later he ended up falling off the curb you placed him on and almost landing under the wheel of another car...but it was the thought that counted....

Who said nothing ever exciting happens in this poor town of ours....till my next adventure...

Nothingness

I have nothing to say....my mind is blank, there is nothing to say...
Nothing going on, nothing new, nothing, a whole lot of nothing....
The writer's mind is blank and so is her canvas...

I just wanted Pizza!

I had quite a long day at work today, so I figured I would order pizza. Make a quick easy supper right? Well boy oh boy was I wrong....

Pizza hut is usually the pizza of choice around here....mainly because I am the only one who enjoys this delicious meal. I figured I would order a nice pizza from there since a.) they are close and b.) usually fairly cheap.

I opened up the phone book, found the number and dialed. It rang and rang and finally an operator came on. She asked for my phone number, name and city. So I clearly stated where I was from, my phone number and my name. The operator said to hold on, she was just putting the information in to direct my call. She then informed me that I would put through to the restaurant I had selected and I could then order. The phone rang and rang and finally someone picked up. The person on the other end of the phone said the address of the pizza hut and the location. I then informed the person at that pizza hut that I was in a different city and if they could please put me through to the right restaurant. She informed me that she could not hook me back to the operator and I would have to call the number for pizza hut again. So our conversation ended.

I called back to the number and again was given to an operator who asked me yet again for my phone number, name and city. I obliged and clearly stated that she had put me through to the wrong restaurant before and I would like to be put through to this pizza hut, at this location in my city. She said that she would and informed me yet again I would be put through to the right restaurant. I clung to the hope that she would this time indeed get it right. Well I am in the end, honestly not sure if I had the right restaurant, because after waiting twenty minutes on hold hearing about pizza hut and their yummy pizza's I hung up.

My attempt to twice get through to pizza hut in my city had failed me. I decided to go to their rival Panago Pizza! They have good pizza but it was slightly expensive. So I dialed in their universal number and got an operator. This guy asked me for my city, phone number and name. I hoped he would get it right the first time. That I would not repeat what had happened five minutes ago with Pizza hut. He said please hold while I connect you through. I was hoping he had it right. Within two minutes there was a voice at the other end of the phone. Success! I was able to order my pizza. It was so good, and it was probably a lot better than what I would have gotten, had I waited on the line for pizza hut to take my call.

I had to blog about this!!!

I like to think that we live in a good neighborhood, it's quiet, and quite a few elderly couples live there. Well not much happens in the neighborhood to report. It's generally business as usual...well unless you've seen my pictures on facebook..that's a whole other story... Well I came home from work one day to find this oil rig put up in his front yard....

I thought maybe we could get use to it, after all people are allowed to express themselves and their interests in their yards. But I find that after it having been around for almost a year, I cannot get use to it. It stands there and stares at the neighborhood. I think this oil rig should be on a farm. It'd make a great yard ornament for an aging farm on their big wide open front lawn in the country.

Did I mention that it lights up at night? It emits a big glowing orange light...enough to light up his whole yard and house as well as his neighbors house and his entire front yard... So this is what I get to see when I pull up at night from work...the big ball of orange.

This oil pump is also conveniently motorized, it makes a loud screetchy noise and I don't even live close to him. So I wonder what it would sound like if I lived next door. I am glad people like lawn ornaments but you don't see my lawn covered in garden gnomes because I like garden gnomes...Anyways hopefully not all neighborhoods are filled with interesting lawn decor like mine. Guess I will just have to get use to it....I am waiting for it to start pumping oil one day, it apparently can do that.

2010

Happy 2010...That's pronounced twenty-ten...not two-thousand and ten. I haven't been corrected yet myself on the new terminolgy but have corrected a few on how to pronounce 2010.
Not much going on, its warm out today...i would have liked to play outside but instead got stuck inside on a nice winter day and worked. Maybe tomorrow will be just as nice and i can lay out in the snow on the front yard and relax a bit...we'll see what tomorrow brings.

Three days till christmas

Curiousity is on the top of my mind....
