Rested

Okay, I'm not so tired. I slept most of the day. It was my one day off after working six. The last three of those were 10-hour days. You see, we had an employee get fired, so we've been short handed. That, along with the holiday weekend, meant that I had to work some long shifts. Not a bad thing, really, when you think about the overtime and the holiday pay.

As for what I wanted to blog about, I have no idea. I forgot. So I'll try to remember and then blog about them in the near future.

I DO want to draw your attention to the newly forming Umbrella Hat Society. If you like to have fun and don't take life too seriously, you need to join the Umbrella Hat Society. That's what we're about - having fun. All you need to do is own an Umbrella Hat. You can get them real cheap in a lot of places. I've bought a couple of them. Do a google search for umbrella hats. Do an eBay search for umbrella hats. Ebay will be cheaper.

It doesn't matter what kind of umbrella hat you own. I have one that's the traditional red, yellow, blue and green, and one that has a patriotic theme. My next one will be green camouflage. After you get your hat, take a picture and send it to umbrellahatsociety@gmx.com. Then it will be added to the Umbrella Hat Society website. Then just go out and have some fun. Form a chapter. There are no dues, no responsibilities. Just fun.

Seriously.

I'm not kidding.

Too tired to blog

I wanted to blog tonight. I have a couple of things to blog about. But I'm too tired, and it's getting late, so I'm not going to blog.

Donnie Darko

I'm a big fan of the TV show "Lost." Someone on one of the Lost groups mentioned Donnie Darko, so I decided to watch it. I'm not good at reviewing movies. I can only tell you if I liked it or not. I liked it. It was a little bizarre, which is fine. It kept my attention until the end. Whether it is relevant to the TV show "Lost" is yet to be seen. Both deal with time travel, to a degree. We'll have to wait a couple of seasons to find out how relevant it may or may not be.

Work, work, work

I mowed the lawn today. I do that from time to time, but almost never after I come home from work! But the lawn needed to be mowed, and there are several hours of daylight left after I get home. So I figured, what the heck! I'll get it done today and then I won't have to do it over the weekend. Another reason I picked today was that I work a swing shift tomorrow, so I can sleep a little later. That used to make sense to me, but now that I'm putting it in my blog, it doesn't make as much sense as it did before. I mean, I finished the lawn a couple of hours ago, and it's only 8:00 p.m. Still light outside and far too early to go to bed. So I guess I could mow the lawn any day after work, regardless of what I'm doing the next day.
