Today Is The 24th Day Of June In The Year Of Our Lord 2011."

Mornin, VODKADAY!! Has arrived. Bittersweet party today at Eck's, it will be an Irish VODKADAY, as all the Irishman from Northern Ireland are invading this afternoon, that is the sweet part, after the party it will be saying our goodbyes as they head home Monday, but the way I live my life I won't be thinking about that until the minute it happens. As for now the Ville is back in shape (gag, gag, gag.) Mere was in Here when I got back in case anybody wondered about him (I am sure all of you adults that read this shit were worried about a Mere Kat that lives in the Ville).  Runnin down June it is amazing how time slips away. In just six short months it will be Christmas Eve.  That should make your day Strebor. One of Stebors favorite holidays.  She is Mrs.Grinch.  Talking about Holidays.  Which ones do you enjoy, which ones do you hate or which ones don't you even know exist.  I know Holidays change as you grow older, some people though, love to hang on to them, especially the Christmas one.  Nothing wrong with that.   I am going to write a few now, get packed, eat some chow, and get ready to go pick up "Phil The Thrill From Cherry Hill." his little last Hoorah for awhile, going to be working in Chi Town for a few months.  Well let's have a Holiday.
4th of July, next one up.  Loved it as a kid and when the kids were growing up, still like the celebrations held for the Country's Birthday.  Good Day, especially around Philly town.
Labor Day, one of the ones I hate the most from the time I was a child to this day right here.  End of Summer, Back to School, a fucking Monday, what are they celebrating, winter on the way. Hate the fucking day and anything to do with it.  Will not celebrate anything.  Nothing too celebrate.
Halloween, turned into another commercial blow out, but really is a neat day for the little ones and some big ones, lots of fun, hell of a lot bigger commotion than when I was young.  Really like it for the little ones.  Some really great costumes and they play it up big time.
THANKSGIVING, Thee best, Dinner with family, party at Dave Morris's house, out and about for the rest of the four day weekend. Nobody buying gifts, nobody stressed out, kick back watch football, eat, drink, sing, and give Thanks.
OK you guys chime on in anytime you like. I will be back before I leave.

Let me clarify being called Mrs. Grinch. I love Christmas Eve and Christmas day. I can't stand the prepping and shopping that leads up to it. I especially can't stand the commercialism that takes place starting in September. The true meaning of Christmas has been pushed into oblivion. It's only important that you get up at 3:00am the day after Thanksgiving in order to battle the other brainless sheople waiting in line to get the latest super gadget or toy, either for themselves or their kids. I also hate Labor Day because it signals the end of summer, even tho we may still have some summery weather afterwards. Late Spring and Summer are my fave times of the year, and it goes much too quickly. It is already June 24 and two weeks before Memorial Day we were considering turning our heaters back on because it was so cold. Now since Memorial Day the ac's have been running steady. Time goes too fast. Instead of Memorial Day and Labor Day always happening on a Monday, and those of you who still have to work have to get up for work the next day and the kids have to get up for school, why don't they celebrate these days on a Friday? A real quick story on stupidity and then I'll stop rambling. Those of you from the hood know where Alex's Pizza is located at the corner of Leverington and Pechin. Well, this past week Leverington was closed at Pechin so you had to detour onto Pechin. The detour sign they put up signaled with the arrow >>>>> to turn into Pechin St. on the right; now Pechin is a one-way street so we had all these people that don't know the area making a right into one-way traffic. Is it just me or does this world consist of just plain stupid people? One of the smarter people took it upon him/herself to turn the sign upside down so the arrow<<<<<< was pointing in the correct direction. HELP!!!!!!!

The best part of all Holidays is the anticipation. Some are good and some are uselss. Vacations the same way. The first week is great and the second week is ok until Thrusday and Friday, pack up and go home. But we all need the Mental Health Days, what we do with them is something else. The workers overseas have it all over us. They start with 6 weeks and unlimited sick days. Maternity leave is sometimes a year. We are the hardest working work force and most productive. It is ok if you love your job but if you don't it many longs years of frustration. So enjoy the time off and use the holiday and the time off that comes with it and use it to your advantage.

Amen J. McC!
TAPS
Day is done,
Gone the sun,
From the lakes,
From the hills,
From the sky,
All is well,
Safely rest,
God is Nigh.
