My Kindgdom For A Post
I very much apologize for my extended lack of posting (and responding). Insomnia has been shrinking my brain and I'm finding it difficult to write anything. I seem to be lapsing into these thought droughts more and more lately. What's there to laugh about?
Bush's idiocy is no longer funny; that hasn't been a source of inspiration.
Israel using a few kidnappings as a pretext for war...no fun to be had there.
The heat. Oh my god the heat. All I do now is hide in my room, curling in the fetal position around my floor vent. The funny? It's too damn hot for the funny. No more funny. It's just broken now, permanently.
Well...I do know one joke. It's not much but it's all I got. Here it goes...
Q: Why did the monkey fall out of the tree?
A: Here's why: because it died of heat stroke, okay? The mother fucker couldn't take it and dropped dead...sort of like I'm about to do if things don't cool down pretty soon. Let me repeat: I am going to die. Soon. Unless. It cools the fuck down.
Thanks.

I strongly suggest a kiddy pool full of ice in the middle of the living room.
Doesn't just help with heat, but I've recently discovered that when it's hot out, The Kid doesn't sleep...unless I find a way for her to get hypothermia at some point during the day.
Works on kids, could work for you. Killing two birds with one stone.

Hope you can find a way to cool down, Matt. It has been in the 90's here, but at least it's a dry heat. I can imagine that you have the muggy kind of heat where you are... the kind where you can just kind of watch the moisture condense on your skin as you do nothing whatsoever to encourage it. The kind where you feel as if you are in a permanent state of sauna. The suffocating kind. Oops, sorry!
As much as I dread going out into our NE Oregon heat, I desperately need to set up some sprinklers as my front lawn is morphing into something kind of brown and crispy. Then again, my back is STILL out and the vicadin is STILL good... and even though we have no air conditioning, 80 in the house is better than 95 outside.

You don't always have to be funny. I know I'm not feeling funny tonight. A little isolated, but not funny.
