12:19 PM - The Weekly Recap, It May Be Spring, But I’m Still Expecting Snow Edition
March 27 to April 3

Music: Jolly Mon Sing by Jimmy Buffet

If it’s Monday, and I didn’t sleep in too late thanks to the cursed daylight-saving conversion, it’s recap day.

Not too much stuff happened this past week. This is a good thing compared to some days. I’ve experienced enough to appreciate the plateaus in life that come become the sharp climbs and declines.

Anyway, here’s the rundown:

Last Monday, March 27, varied topics reviewed included a crazy St. Patrick phone call, online quizzes, and pointers for my burial notice. It was just one of those weeks…

Tuesday Lady Luck develops an attitude and the office betting pool on the Men’s NCAA tournament goes to pieces, and thus, math is statistically proved fallible.

Wednesday we have the weekly quote log with hobos aplenty (Note: No hobos were harmed in the producing of this post. Though some of us were initially disappointed by this fact, we have later admitted it was a good thing, even if we missed out on more punch lines.)

Thursday in a very short post, I outline an important culinary observation. There are very few things that you can mix blue-flavored Gatorade with. Blue-flavored Powerade has more options; I know this from experience. My mistake was from mistakenly thinking I could apply blue Gatorade to all the foods I have applied blue Powerade to. I repeat my mistake so that others can avoid it. Note: Yes, this summary is longer than the original post, but since some people asked about it, I thought I'd add some context.

Friday when a mental block hits me, and I find myself unable to force thoughts on subjects I had previously planned to write about, I compose an open letter to my time-shared Muse.

Saturday based on an earlier similarly themed post, I do a free form association … partially because of sleep deprivation (getting up early to hit a before noon sale on the strip), partly because of it being April Fool’s Day. I understand it, but then, I wrote it. Good luck to the rest of you.

To come: Daylight-saving mishaps and the previously mentioned musical review and talk about “benes and more.”

Caleb, this isn't related to your post but I just realized the other day that you are the only person that I know who has both a Bachelor's degree and a job. So, way to go or whatever.

Well, thanks.

I don't know what that says about me or our circle of friends, but it's nice to know I'm ahead of the curve.

Considering for a while I expected to be another English major working in Wal-Mart, life is certainly good.

I'll tell you what it says about our circle of friends. It says that they like living life slow and retarded. Isn't that the way life should be lived? I think so. I also think that you should send me some money.
