Today at work I was in a pissy rotten mood at first. It felt like Post Rally Depression, but I haven't been to any rallies in a while. I looked underneath and discovered that I am feeling fear and sadness (mostly sadness) about leaving for Japan. Just when I'm really having a great fun time with Janette... gotta go.

I mean I was like kicking the shit out of boards when they only needed a good kick. Or pulling finishing nails all the way through plywood instead of tapping them backwards and pulling them out. Or picking up decks (3/4" plywood 4x8 feet with 1.5" thick X 6" border around it and three 3/4" braces across the back) by myself instead of getting help.

Felt better after lunch.

That was the lunch that we all piled into Joe's truck and went to Whataburger and Jah-Jah paid for my and William's lunch and after lunch William and I in the back seats of the truck laughing our asses off after Joe hit the brakes (something one does at times while driving) and Hector spilled his 32 oz fountain drink (no lid) onto the floor of Joe's truck and Hector was all mad at Joe!! "Goddammit Joe you shouldn hid de brakes like dat" in his Puerto Rican accent. Spill 32 ounces of coke on the guys carpet and yell at him. Thanks for the laugh, Hector.

Paul Andrews was here when I got home. He went to get Chez while Jack went to volunteer at Dallas Peace Center.

Chez and I had an adventure going to the video store to retrieve _Say Anything_ that included the Simpson's Short at the beginning. We watched it on Janette's TV/VCR combo (which we brought to the store) and decided not to get it. Chez thought it wasn't as funny this time. It was as funny to me, but we weren't high on no sleep when we watched it.

Got A.I. on DVD instead.

I'm too tired to watch it now; I'm going to read _Stranger in a Strange Land_ to Janette and go to sleeeee.
