flying with sun
pearched in the road
i was at the window sill
they were all there, like i was
moment there
and then gone, like i was
looking for a place to rest

lots has happened.  i have been overcome with new music (the great lake swimmers), office pranks, trip to canada, back to the gym, learning biblical greek, still learning norwegian, pretending to speak swahili, and readying myself to teach a bible study.  so, i have not been lazy per se.

however, canada was fun, only- mr. bibblewick’s was renamed to something not worth remembering, let alone mentioning.  the same with remmy’s.  this year we put up a rope swing- which  was most enjoyable.  i did a few monster sends in croquet, some amazing shots in bocce, and some crazy crocce.  should be rolling out with some nice croquet trading cars with fun poses from my friends.

now to office pranks- too much fun.  i took a lot of pictures of the stolen monkey in the office and emailed them while at work to make my co-worker go nuts as she ran to find the monkey.  poor girl.  but in the end i gave it back.  she has never been to canada- but her monkey has.

and at work we have a new operator.  she is hilarious.  she has the weirdest inflection at the end of her saying that makes it turn either into a question, or a surprise statement.  ‘billy mckinstry, please call the operator (that part like a robot), billy mckinstry, please call the operator (that part like she is either surprised or is asking a question.  i get a good laugh.  and that is when kinery (the co-work directly in front of me) told me that my laugh is scary.  and that when the operator comes on, she was on the other side of the department and she heard me laugh- and people were shocked and were asking who it was, and like a nice girl she said it was the ‘devil laughing billy’.  now imagine ‘devil laughing billy’ in an indian accent- that is funny.

and i suppose that is it- a lot of funny things have been happening at work, but so much so that i cannot hardly remember some of them.  there is this new girl jess, who i refuse to call by her name (i call her newgirl), and i mostly find ways to keep her far from me.  i am just not keen on the way she butts into everyone’s conversation.  and i will end that soon enough.

and… that’s a wrap.
