Halfassing It Daily


Dear Texas, I want to kiss you

I’LL NOT LEAVE YOU AGAIN.  Not for a good, long time.  This is what Happy Airport looks like:

 airport5 airport2

So I take it all back.  All the things I’ve said about you:

  •  the insufferable humidity
  •  your “dance clubs”
  • NASCAR
  • your general insistence on the Immaculate Conception — high-five, Mary. You pulled it off.

“srsly god did it”

OK guys:  FLIGHT CANCELED.  If I could bitch-slap the weather, I would.

I was so looking forward to NOT THIS.  Since I am an emotional handicap, I’m pretty sure the entire airport knows I how I feel about my extended stay in Iowa.  

Please, someone talk to me.  I’ve already tried screaming SERENITY NOW!!!! but that pissed everyone off.  

I’ve started drinking.  

out

That smile was captured en route to the Airport of Sadness.  It has been turned upside down.  A couple-few more heinekens and we’ll right-side-it-up again.



Peace OUT, Des Moines. Good luck w/the whole corn thing.

I have never been this stoked to board a plane to TEXAS.  Things to indulge in:

  • tacos
  • my beloved Wii 
  • a stinkly pug
  • Virgin Mary air fresheners (Yes. I miss the Catholics)

    On Staying at an extended relative’s house

    Relatively Constant Circumstances:

    1. Softwater
    2. Going ANTIQUING against one’s will. Oh yeah I am being super-cereal about this
    3. Where is the tobasco? Do I have to eat the fish eggs :(
    4. Can I put this down your garbage disposal / do you like your dishes in the dishwasher facing North? [AGAIN, super-cereal] / where do I put my empty glass bottle?  
    5. Had to leave all my recreational “God made dirt => dir’t don’t hurt” plant life at home
    6. B&W movies, of which I don’t have an across-the-board prob with, but who watches “The Day the Earth Stood Still” in its original version when you have 20-something guests in your home?  
    7. Sneaking alochol.  Hoping no one planned to put scotch in their eggnog, as I have stolen and hidden it in the basement guestroom.

    Consequences of the Above C ircumstances

    1. I cannot get clean, no matter if I rinse long enough to freeze myself out when 6 other people are taking/have already taken showers. Filmy soap scum is an evil, slippery force.
    2. I’ll show you the rest of my “finds” shortly.
    3. I am not satiated.  Not hardly.  The W.T. in me doesn’t like fish eggs.
    4. I don’t want to be a pretentious dick about your refusal to recycle so let’s all get uncomfs when I ask where to put the empty glass :(
    5. I could handle this whole thing in a more civil manner if I had some herbal assistance and had decided to bring my Wii.  My lungs are sort of thanking me, though.
    6. Actually, who wants to see either version?  OK, if you’re a guy with the guy retard gene, may-hap you wanna see the remake with KEANU.  Full disclosure, I have the retarded chick gene that has caused me to watch Kate Hudson’s “How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days” 130492x.
    7. When there isn’t 50 people up in the kitchen, must spike whatever is on hand, and with a quickness.  

    Bonus glass of FAKE WINE of TRICKERY:

    P.S. I hope you guys hearted your ecards if you requested one.  If you still want one, send me an email at halfassitude at gmail.  Wuv you guys, would rather hang out with you via interton any day.

    I’m in fucking Iowa.  I’m getting in trouble for not putting up ornaments.  I now have a vodka ginger ale that looketh like water [don't think I didn't drink on the plane.]

    [Or at the airport bar. Relax, those glasses aren't all mine]

    More to come later.  I told Jen I’d make her a snow angel.  If I chicken out, I’ll blame it on my cough.  IT IS DAMN COLD UP HERE.
