Crisis, Games and Obligations
12/02/07 11:24 AM | Up Chucks
Yesterday, the final day of the Expo sale. Reps from all the major companies. Customers, sales, busy busy busy. The retail day ended at 4:30 the trip home took 24 minutes door to door. The exhaustion took three and a half hours to beat. I came home, walked the dog, then walked my sorry pathetic butt to bed. Like always I tossed and turned off the shadows of the day eventually falling into a restless sleep, I awoke at least a dozen times in the three hour ordeal to deal. Somewhere in those three hours I must have gotten about an hours worth of respite. I woke-up at 8PM and started surfing channels with no real desire to watch or even be awake, so I dallied a bit getting from one end of the offerings to the other, eventually I headed back down the numbers until I reached TNT TV again and started watching The Borne Supremacy from about a third in I guess. Jenni came in with about 15 minutes to go and I told her what it was, and she went back out to see if it was on HD, not only was it but it was also being repeated at 10:00, so we DVR's it and I will get to see the missing pieces in wide screen HD when I get the time. Then it was back to tossing and turning my way through to morning. My plan was to get up early and make breakfast for the two of us. Well early went with the first alarm, fairly early saw the back side of the second alarm and the sheets continued to see the backside of me. Finally Jenni, who had gotten up after my 6:36 fairly early alarm came back in feeling not at all well and climbed into bed again saying she was freezing. Before she zonked out she said, Weren't you going to make omelets? Why yes, yes I was.
So I got up, headed to the kitchen. Straightened and made a place for my cookery mess. I then made coffee, and sausage, onion and green pepper omelets, orange and cranberry juice (which tastes like grapefruit without the sting) and garlic potatoes with the leftover omelet sauteed onion and green peppers and extra creamy butter, yum. An Eckrich Italian sausage link cut into half inch wafers and browned completed the mornings exercise. With the table set I set to unsettle the sleeping giant and get her into the flow again. As she stirred I put on Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique, Op.14 for ambient digestion and happy company BGM.
She ate, and so did Charlie, still feeling a bit under the weather she finished most of her breakfast fare and then handed off leftovers to der pooch. Seeing that she was not improving I asked if she was bowing out of the Chatterbowling exercises, she replied in the affirmative and asked that I medicate her from the cupboards apothecary staples.
Swallowing staples being the last thing I thought she needed I offered some Advils instead. She accepted. Then I took off the classical music and put on some China Crisis (one of her favorites, even if YOU have never heard of them)!
China Crisis Albums from the Pace library.
Now time funnels down to the point where soon I have to go and defend the family name in a challenge of kegling daring do. I shall not leave the arena empty handed. Perhaps you should go to the Amazon link there on the left and type in China Crisis, you can even download individual songs for .89 each straight from the Amazon website now. So if you don't want to buy the whole shooting match you can still get hooked. Hey while you are there you can donate to my beer fund, the Pay-pal link is fixed.
Individual song recommendations. #1 Choice, "Working With Fire and Steel", then "Wishful Thinking," "Papua", and "Here Comes a Raincloud" from Working With Fire and Steel. "It's Everything", "Arizona Sky" and "June Bride" from What Price Paradise. "The World Spins, I'm Part of It", "Black Manray" and "Bigger The Punch I'm Feeling" from Flaunt the Imperfection.
My Work here is done, the game is on and I have to get ready to bowl.
