From my mother's sleep I fell into the State,
And I hunched in its belly till my wet fur froze.
Six miles from earth, loosed from its dream of life,
I woke to black flak and the nightmare fighters.
When I died they washed me out of the turret with a hose.

yes, randall jarrell. beautiful, and succinct. I have thought of this poem now and then over the years, and despite its brevity, never been able to memorize it properly.

thank you, for quoting it.

My dad was in Lancasters and Halifaxs doing WW2, he says that is pretty accurate. He was a Rear Gunner in Bomber Squadron in RAF in Britian.

Today was my first day of Bakery training.

It was pretty good. It's nice to have a tangible end product after a long day at work. That's hard to find in retail. The deli lead was a dick, though. I'm glad I only have to deal with him for a couple of weeks. I can't stand people who think they're the Second Coming of Christ...

In the exercise room, doing benchpresses on the BowFlex:

Me: I feel like I might throw up. That might be kind of funny.
devilducky: Just don't throw up on me.
Me: Well, how much would that suck, if I threw up on the machine?! Then we'd have to sit down here and clean it up.
DD: Fuck that. We'd just go back upstairs.
Me:...

I went and saw Serenity tonight.

It was quite good.

I've never even seen Firefly and I liked it.

Kitty wasn't so keen on grooming herself and even though I was brushing her I wasn't able to prevent matting. I took her to the vet and asked him what to do about her, and he suggested getting her shaved then using a long-tooth comb to comb her instead of the little pet brush I was using before.

She looks a little silly, but she seems far happier than she did before.

United Noodles called and said you're supposed to get your ass in gear and go there with me.

So there.

UPDATE: My training actually doesn't start until October 5th. Hooray. ^__^

devilducky and I used the exercise room in our complex for the first time the other day. I'm proud of us! We rode the stationary bikes and lifted weights and stuff. I would've jogged on the treadmill but we couldn't get it to work.

I start my Bakery training on Thursday. My first week...

Fiddle-dee-dee. I don't have anything interesting to say. So here are some stories about me.

1. When I was six years old, I broke my arm. I was hanging upside-down from my swingset, slipped, fell and landed on top of my little twig arm. And it broke. I was in the first grade and took a little pillow with me to lay my broken arm...

I am sick.

Stuffy head, really tired. I caught it from the guys in Sporting Goods who are always stealing our Telxon and tape gun and getting their sick germs all over them.

Bastards.
