the end of another season...

so, strangely, i seem to have internet sometimes again. which is good and i'm not complaining. but if any site takes a few minutes to load, i'm screwed and can't do it, as the connection isn't good most of the time. i have, however, been able to check the weather online two mornings in a row now...it's so exciting.

i'm actually home from work early today...and unfortunate and frustrating physical thing but i'm hoping to be on the mend shortly. meanwhile, as i'm trying to keep my mind of some of the pain...i figured i'd take advantage of this internet and post a few pics from my trip to Iowa. Now, if you have an account on facebook, these will not be new, at least some of them won't. but for those who might be interested...here goes.

ok, scratch that, it takes like 20 min to upload one photo..it'll have to be another time. in the mean time, being home at this hour in a quiet apartment allows for some reflection, some reading and a realization that there's a really annoying dog down the hall that won't stop chirping his little bark at being alone in his apartment and therefore being mad a the world. urgh.

i'm sad i'm sick though cause i have to miss the last Movie in the Park downtown, as the summer is closing and Grease, the finale, is to be underway in a few short hours. i only made it to about three of the movies this summer. and i lament missing Grease. Last year's finale was the Sound of Music and it was great...i'm sure tonight there will be no shortage of crowd involvement and sing-a-longs for every song, including dancing around and saying all the lines word-for-word.
i can see john travolta now...

Well this car is systematic, hydromatic, ultramatic
Why, it could be Greased Lightnin'!
We'll get some overhead lifters and some four barrel quads, oh yeah
Keep talkin', whoah keep talkin'!
Fuel injection cut off and chrome plated rods, oh yeah
I'll get her ready, I need to get her ready!
With a four-speed on the floor, they'll be waitin' at the door
You know that ain't shit when we'll be gettin' lots of tit
Greased Lightnin'
Go, Greased Lightnin'
You're burnin' up the quarter mile
Greased Lightnin', go Greased Lightnin'
Go Greased Lightnin'
You're coasting through the heat lap trails
Greased Lightnin', go Greased Lightnin'
You are supreme
The chicks'll cream
For Greased Lightnin'
Go go go go go go go go

ahh..good times.

damn that dog is annoying..

i'm out..
