I saw a commercial out of seatle for some Kia dealership selling one model 2for1. It's all very amusing.

Yeah, it's crazy stuff. I'm glad I work in a service industry.

ha. You ever have one of those mornings where you have a dream where somebody does something to offend you, and then you wake up and you're like "there is no logical reason for me to be mad at this person over something that happened in a dream and not in real life", but there's a tiny little part of your brain that's still upset about it and wants to be grumpy for the rest of the day? Yeah I think i'm having one of those mornings :lol:

Woo! One of my neighbors and his wife had gotten their truck stuck in huge pothole in the curb, so I got to use my truck and my inherent manliness to get them out. That's my good deed for the day and I got the joy of using a truck for truck stuff

also you'll need to send me pictures of the puppy, obviously.

Will do. The people at the shelter said they're Husky mixes, but they don't look anything like Huskies to me. Oh well.

my mom's dog is a collie husky cross and you can only really see the husky in the tail... and when she goes running. though she does like to try and herd the cats

Chinooks are like that. They are a breed started in NH that are a mix of husky and a mastiff that was used to explore Antarctica.

I had a boyfriend once who dreamt I was floating Buddha-style above him and poked his eyes out. He was pretty pissed about it.

That seems like a very un-Buddha thing to be doing

It seems very much like the shaman in the Lion King among other examples. Shamans can be clever jerks.

You'd have to be pretty clever to flaot, I suppose.
I am sadly not a clever jerk.

I do have a book of logic puzzles, though. So maybe I can become more clever. I'm proabably already a jerk.
