The things in my head go ’round and ’round

Over on Mr. Lady’s blog she wrote about her kids getting a hamster.  I love pets.  We have 2 cats, and a dog.

My sons, though, have never had pets.  Their mother didn’t like animals.  So imagine my surprise when the youngest one, aged 18 calls me to tell me that he is getting a hamster.

I don’t see anything good coming out of this.

This is the child who has a hard enough time keeping track of  himself, much less another sentient being.  I am envisioning the withered corpse of a rodent in a cage in my sons room.

Not a pretty sight.

Namaste.

That saddens me.  I thought that for sure one of you would be able to see beyond the green appleness of its color to the inner beauty of it.

Lord knows that I never did, but I have little fashion sense.  And, truth be told, very little sense to begin with.

Regardless.  I will strive to find something else that is give away worthy in my searches within the confines of my abode.

In other words, I will find something else that I don’t want anylonger to give away.

Better?

Thought so.

Namaste.

Please understand that I fully intend at some point in time to monetize this blog. I want to be up front with this.

Why am I going to monetize it? Because I have been looking for a way to get out of being a wage slave for the past 27 years. Since the first day that I took a job with and bellied up to the barrel for my first pay check I have been looking for a way out.

There. I said it. I don’t like going to work everyday having some person that I don’t really want to deal with telling me what to do. I also am really not down with the whole concept that is generally held out “there” that people can get bitchy and rude with me. It amazes me to this day that I have little old ladies get so mad at me over not having a particular can of something, when the store carries a gazillion different styles of canned something that the little old lady can call me names, question my parentage, and not expect me to deck her. Or that I have men telling me that they are going to call in favors with friends in the “government” to investigate my store because they think that the prices are too high. What the heck is going on with people?

That is why I am going to monetize this blog. I can’t deal with stupidity any longer. At least with anyones other than my own. And I can be pretty stupid at times. But that is just part of my charm.

So. You will see some items here that I am touting. Hopefully, you won’t see anything stupid here. Other than the things that roll around in my head, normally. So be forewarned.

Namaste.

when I leave a comment, I am listed as anonymous. Just what my fragile ego needs, and deserves.

One more thing to figure out on this journey to make this blog work.

I decided last night, on my hour long trek home from work, that I will be doing a series of contests to be called “Giving-away-crap-that-I-find-lying-around-the-house”. Catchy title, eh? I think so. The whole, truth in advertising thing don’t you know.

Anyway, I will be doing this weekly in a blatant attempt to build traffic to this blog. Again, the whole truth in advertising issue. I just like to be as upfront as I possibly can.

The rules will be this. I will announce the contest, wait for comments, and pick a winner at the end of the day, request the mailing address for said winner and mail whatever they won out to them. Simple.

This weeks first winner is Lynne. Congratulations!! And thank you for playing. Now add me to your links and I will be eternally in your debt.

Namaste.

So, as I announced on my other blog , I will present to the 10th commentor on this blog a fairly new, never been worn (and to this I can attest), vintage Snapple Elements t-shirt.

Said t-shirt is black with a flame logo on the left side where a pocket would be, with the same logo on the back, only larger.  All free of charge to the 10th commenter.

So, c’mon.  Comment me some luv.

Namaste.
