 Posted: 08/13/03 - 16:13 Post subject: I can't believe it's only Wednesday!
This week has been a killer.
Monday: Keith is diagnosed with carpal tunnel (sp?). Not real earth shattering except he has been seeing the company dr.s for months and they weren't doing anything for him. All they did was give him Celebrex.
He went to see his own Dr. and after a bunch of tests that was the conclusion. Of course the company isn't happy about this and since his dr was not approved they don't want to pay for it.
I have a tooth ache.
Took the dog to the groomers and she came back with fleas! 
Tuesday: Boss says my workload went up quadruple and I'm not guaranteed a raise for it. Mother in-law invites herself and her company over to our house for dinner. My tooth is still aching.
Wednesday: It just poured down raining and both my windows are down in the car. Tomorrow is my dentist appointment. They will probably slip and cut off my nose or something.

You need a song to cheer you up. 
Sorry you're having a bad week.
SONG OF ETERNAL DESPAIR (part one) Ira Marlowe
Clem the bartender sits on his fender
12-gauge in his hand
while Purvis the mayor combs back his "hayor"
and stares at my rusty old van
I have just broken down in a small Southern town
with my luck that was not to be trusted
and now Claymore the sheriff pulls out a large pair of
handcuffs and says, "Boy, you are busted."
Things are not going well: I am now in a cell
with a wino named Thunderbird Turner
whose breath is so stale I would sooner inhale
half an inch from an unlit gas burner
I say, "Pardon me, sir, but I'm not really sure
how I got in this whole situation"
he just digs in his nose and says, "Anything goes"
thus ending our brief conversation
CHORUS
So won't you join in my song of
eternal despair
and despite my complaining I don't really care
if it were not for down I'd have no place to fall
and if it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all
It is now time for dinner and it looks like a winner
don't laugh, 'cause this just isn't funny
it's a plate with a pool of unspecified gruel
and some water the color of money
so I scream out to all, "Don't I get one phone call?
You're not dealing with some kinda yokel!"
Then the sheriff strolls in with a @#%&-eating grin
he says, "Sure kid, long as it's local."
Oh my Lordy, my dear,a things are suddenly clear
I have noticed a large wanted poster
hanging over the desk, looking quite Manson-esque
is a killer called "Tommy the Toaster"
Seven times he has fried, but he still has not died
now he's recently sprung himself free
and by coincidence, there's a strange resemblance
between Tommy the Toaster and me
CHORUS
There are times when a man has done all that he can
and he turns to his maker for solace
but my prayers to our Lord were so soundly ignored
that I prayed to their Governor Wallace
and then that very night Sheriff Claymore B. White
in the lock of my cell turned his key
justice can't be denied and the door opened wide!
and Thunderbird Turner went free
Left alone in my cell of this Hellhole Hotel
my blackest of hopes fast a-dimmin'
in walks Peterbilt Dan, a truck-drivin' man
who was born to eat grits and leave women
as he screamed and he cussed, "My fuzzbuster bust!"
the cell door snapped shut like a jaw
he took one look at me and said,
"Lordy be, it's the sucker who butchered my Pa!"
CHORUS
All this turmoil and strain puts the soul in great pain
and is furthermore bad for digestion
I did best to emote as he clung to my throat
that I was not the Toaster in question
He said, "Pass just one test and I'll lay this to rest..."
as he pulled a hair-pin from his pocket
"I'll know you're alright if you glow like a light
when you stick this in that there socket!"

As long as you don't jinx Albert Pujols' hitting streak, everything will be OK.
