Locked Up Like A Litigious Celebrity Trainwreck

My dad and I just returned from a kickin' road trip to CoMo to see The Jayhawks play.  It was lovely Daddy and me time, and we had a blast.  On the way home I stopped to fill up my car and decided to run to the restroom.  I was gone for an unusually long time, but trust me -- it was worth it.

What, you thought I was going to show some gross personal business pic?  You people are sick.  No, I found this gem in the gas station bathroom and couldn't resist.  It begs a variety of questions:

1.  So does the door open when it's locked AND when it's unlocked?

2.  How do I unlock the door AFTER leaving the bathroom?

3.  How many people asked for this little tutorial on locking the door before management said, "perhaps a sign would help"?

4.  Why am I so lucky?

****NOTE: This was not my original post title.  However, I can't afford the probable lawsuit brought on by a certain Hollywood former child star who spends minutes and minutes in jail and whose only source of income is suing people.  You know what I'm sayin', Pitbull and E*Trade?  If you know who I'm talking about, you'll understand. If you don't, Google it.

Random Musings

1.  Last Friday night I was driving home from my parents' house when I saw two gentlemen on the corner.  One was wearing a jumpsuit and the other was dressed as (I swear) Captain Hook.  They appeared to be brushing up on their creeper skills.  Well played, boys.  Well played. 2.  I've been watching a lot of "Storage Wars" lately.  Who puts glass eyeballs in a storage locker?  Why are plastic chairs worthy of storage?  If someone can afford to purchase and store randomly valuable items, why can't they afford to pay the storage fees?  And why do so many people store money in storage lockers?  Haven't they ever heard of a bank? 3.  My father used the work "Grok" in Words with Friends.  He claims it means "to understand."  Later when I was telling him about my bad day he told me he totally grokked (groked?).  Thanks for the support, Dad. 4. - 6.  I'm sure I've mused about some more stuff here, I'm just to...

The Comeback Kids

A friend invited me to play on her softball team.  I played catcher and only missed the ball 50% of the time.  I even got a hit, which sounds great until you learn I struck out twice.  Despite my Mr. Magoo-like performance we actually came back from an 8-1 deficit to take the game 10-8.  After our impressive rally, we decided to take our winning selves to trivia.  Our egos were quickly deflated after the first round of general knowledge.  Apparently, we know nothing about the Vietnam War.  Or renewable energy.  Or the Beatles' final album.  Oops. Round 2 was in honor of one of the guest emcees, who is from Ireland (accent and all).  I learned two things from this round: 1.  I know nothing about Ireland. 2.  I don't want to know anything about Ireland. Round 3 was devoted to science fiction.  I know Ray Bradbury was a total icon to his fans, but could he have maybe waited until Friday to pass away so we...

Point/Counterpoint

Back in the classic days of SNL Jane Curtin and Dan Aykroyd used to do a segment on Weekend Update called "Point/Counterpoint", which would begin as a current events debate but generally devolve into insults about their, ahem, personal characters.  Today was a Point/Counterpoint day -- minus the jabs at my integrity. Point -- I donated my old collection of classroom books to a worthy place.  Eight years of books equals a lot of boxes. Counterpoint -- I live on the second floor.  My car is on the first floor.  A lot of boxes of books had to get from the second floor to the first floor. Point -- I went on a walk and found an abandoned license plate by the side of the road and turned it into the police department to be returned to its rightful owner. Counterpoint -- It was really hot today.  Why did I go on a walk? Point -- The police officer who collected the plate from me was appreciative. Counterpoint -- He was probably more appreciative that he was done...
