The Baffled King

Composing

Baffled King

Curious George

I heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift, the baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hi. We had a party. I am drunk, full, and we had the cops called on us which whoa.

It was sorta awesome.


ETA: oh dude. I was wondering. Why I couldn't find Doctor Who tonight and where all the reviews were.

I just realized it's Friday, not Saturday.

The Big Read thinks the average adult has only read six of the top 100 books they've printed below.

1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicise those you intend to read
3) Underline the books you LOVE.
4) Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who've read 6 and force books upon them.

Me: Chloe, please go away.
Chloe: ...What?
Me: I don't know what's going on, but the sight of you or Lucas is making me homocidal and hateful and I don't know what's going on.
Chloe: ...do you have PMS?
Me: *counts days. ...Yes.
Chloe: Love you, bye!

I. I.

Okay so. We got tee shirts printed for Pride. They did not sell. Mom says "Write them off as advertising and give them away." I say "Ebay".

Opinions?

Hokay. People who have seen yesterday's DW episode: Should I watch it or wait until next week and watch them together?

Pride

I was going to do this as a bullet point list, but. Just not going to work without a lot of digression so I'm just going to make this a long post and write between rp reps.

So. We got up at 6 am and got to the store at 7 am. We'd made tee shirts the day before that said Pandora's Box Staff. It was kind of cool. I'm going to wear it often. Kent, Nikki, and David were meant to be there at 8. Kent called and said they'd be there between 8:15 and 8:30. They arrived at 9:11. Emily got there a little later, Jimmy...oh god, I have no idea when Jimmy got there. He's unobtrusive, yet awesome. So anyway. We had some people in all morning, we sold boas and pride stuff mostly, then came the parade. The parade rocked. I only saw parts of it though. I got some pictures, then I had to go inside because it got busy. It was so hot.

Kent wasn't. Listening to me or mom, he let a piece of art get damaged, and he wouldn't stay in his assigned room. And he was slurring, and touching the customers and just. His medicine made him look like he was strung out and made him act like it. Like. Getting in customer's faces and talking about what they were getting. With the toys. Yeah. Not cool. And he started telling the customers he has a brain tumor (he doesn't). We kept asking if he wanted to go home, if he'd go home, and finally, mom just told him to go. Because we had to assign him a minder, his minder wasn't. Minding very well, and I had to keep going back and keeping Kent from telling totally wrong things and scaring the customers. And we had him back there in the first place so he could sit where it was cool; he couldn't sit in the front because he can't run the register.

Anyway. That sucked. Mom made him go home.

He brought his two friends with him.

Leaving us with 6 people, including two minors. For three rooms and an outside booth. And roughly 10 people at a time in the store at the slowest, and 70 at the fastest. We do not have ROOM for that many people, seriously.

Fortunately, two guys that we knew vaguely stayed and just. Stepped up to the plate in major, major ways. They were amazing and saved our asses. Because we were PACKED until 4 pm when they packed up the street festival. It was just. Exhausting in major ways.

We came home at 10pm and I fell asleep in my CHAIR.


Then we went back to work this morning at 12. Sold some more stuff. And now I am not moving for the next two days except to go to the bank to deposit money tomorrow morning.

Torchwood: One of us is going to die you
I wake up sometimes with a fragment of a dream still in my head. A word, a phrase, a song. I woke up today with "Life lasts longer than love." I don't remember the first part, it was something about being alone but shit, that's depressing.

Cookie Man

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
mom
I was telling Liz that today is cookie day and I realized that I have not talked about the cookie man. The cookie man? The cookie man.

The cookie man is a small, thin boned man in his late 40s with a huge smile and shoulder length silver hair. He comes to my work every Wednesday, in the late afternoon, with a basket over his forearm.

Filled with cookies. Little brown paper packets with five huge cookies inside, moist and delicious and a red plate with samples; so you know which cookies are best for you that day.

There are old standbys: chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin. Then there are the creative ones; peanutbutter cookies with a jam center, heath bar cookies.

He sells us his cookies with a smile and sometimes, a little song, then goes on his way while the storm rolls in behind him, lightening flashing across the gray sky.




Though, I'll be fair, it storms every afternoon here: that's how we know it's summer. He comes from Katie's Bakery, in Clearwater, and makes deliveries up and down the Gulf coast in Pinellas. It's kind of awesome.

I think I just nailed my personality.

Also so hi, my name is Mecca, think of me as a cocker spaniel. Shy, neurotic and I pee on the floor until I'm comfortable and then I jump all over you. Minus the peeing on the floor bit. I go with inappropriate public declarations instead.
