random side notes - chapter two

veronica went to the alamo today. there IS a basement! really!

any time you're in the situation where you have to say to a person, "i'm sorry. you're not the miss america i was looking for" and be totally serious about it in a not insulting way, that is just simply wrong. when she laughs it off and impishly says, "oh, we all look alike" and eats cake, it gets even better. i was there - she really does eat!

we passed a place this week that rents cars for $6.99 and up. yes, i thought i read it wrong at first, until i peeked behind the front of the building. the lot in back had some real clunkers in it, including a car with parts of many colors. if i really needed to rent a car that much, i would just go ahead and spring for the big bucks.

how does a one legged pigeon survive on the sidewalks of los angeles? how does it get to be the biggest pigeon in the herd? it was like a baby turkey. it was the mother of all pigeons! it was absolutely enormous, i tell you. that must be the strongest pigeon leg in the history of the world. that leg was holding up the heft of a small country. go, one legged pigeon, go!

i read magazines from back to front on most occasions.

sales tax around here is lower than it is in tulsa, and we're not paying it on food. even though southern california is a cesspool, i'm saving money on taxes. why is the state government in oklahoma and the city government in tulsa always broke if they're collecting so much money? i can manage money better than that and my money skills blow.

bubba and stuart are friends, even if they don't know it. they lay on the couch right next to each other, sit in the doorway together, eat at the same time. all the while they quite actively ignore each other's presence, but always seem to be hanging out together. dizzy watches on and takes the occasional swipe at each of them when they're expecting it. she's a princess and can't be bothered with letting them get in her way. this is how the heirarchy of cats goes in my house.

holly is right - live life like it's hot pie. even if you burn your pie hole, just keep on eating. wisdom and food put together... i love her.
