I mean, come on, I always miss Talk Like a Pirate Day, I'm glad I didn't miss Sharing Day this year. I mean, it must be. At a customer's house there was this "commercial" with this guy "I bike to work every third day. Yadda Yadaa, I'm a MORMAN!" Not a MERman, a MORman. Which I guess means he likes a certain kind of soft drink?

So, either the mormon faith has so failed to capture new morons that it must now advertise or it's Sharing Day! So let's share!
I am Robert. A more unique soul was never brought into being. I am often more honest then I should be. What I know, I know so well my knowledge will astound you. What I don't know, I am so ignorant of as to touch the very bottom of the well of depravity. If you are my friend, I will do anything for you without reservation. If I don't know you, and you ask me to do something, I will probably do anything for you, in the hope you may one day be my friend. There are times when I wish the earth would explode. There are times I find infinite beauty in the smallest of things. I recently looked into the smiling face of a tiny baby as it waved to me from it's carrier, set on the "you bag it yourself" self at Aldi and was struck by the thought that, "maybe having a child wouldn't be so bad." I meditate every night. There are things in this world you think nothing of that terrify me to the core of my being. Some of those things I may one day get past, others I will fear to my dying day. I greet the moon. I always say good morning, and "see you tomorrow", to my car, which I need to do my job. I am under no illusion it knows, or cares. I see magic in the world. I have days so good I feel I must be in heaven. I have days so bad I wonder if I'll have the courage to go on. But I do, because I am Robert.
I am a witch.
Whew, glad sharing day doesn't come too often. Still, nice to get things out there, right?
I did a bunch of little things until 12:00, four places, actually. Mortgage place, drop off DVDs, get a guy's email straightened out, go see Lou. Then the day really started.
The first of which was just to set up a router, share a printer, pretty easy stuff.
The next one turned out to be the monitor not working, rather then the computer. But I did update some things on the laptop while he was out getting another one, so that was fine.
Then clean out two, one owned by a very cute collage student who kept singing in the other room, one song of which was the "welcome christmas" by the Who (you know, down in Who Vill) which was kinda odd. Nice voice though.
Then get a wireless printer working and figure out why her personalized google page wasn't so personal anymore.
Whew.
Another full day tomorrow, though I only got a trickle of phone calls in today. Finally taking care of the router for the prison people, the reload, and something else. The ice cream place said monday was better, so that's that one.
No news on grandma yet today, which I guess is good?
Not sure if we're doing more War for Cybertron tonight or not, we'll see. But that's it for me tonight!
