Random Thoughts IV

Your co-workers thank you for infecting them with your summer cold.

I suspect I got it from my officemate. I've been washing my hands and avoiding people which is easy to do when I share this office with one person.

The nine-year-old girl came back from the One Direction Concert on Sunday Night doing a perfect imitation of Harry Styles. I am so embarrassed that I know what Harry Styles sounds like.

They are in KC tonight at Arrowhead. Heat index is around 104.

Dante missed writing about that circle of hell.

I'm assuming the circle of hell you're talking about is One Direction?

That sounds pretty bad. The band still has to preform. Then there's the whole parent thing. Keep them home or let them go?

Awesome rendition of Hallelujah.

The entire 1D concert Circle of Hell:

1. Find out about concert.
2. Purchase tickets for concert.
3. Have wife, kids and friends talk about how excited they are for the concert.
4. Listen to 1D music constantly when they are around for 2 weeks prior to concert. (this is the worst arc of this circle of hell)

Brief 5 hour respite while they go to the concert

5. Get awaken from sleep when they return from concert
6. Watch videos from concert
7. Listen to more 1D music (at least now I know it is coming to an end, hopefully)

Old guy neighbor passed out in yard again. Not drunk this time, he just doesn't eat or drink much of anything. Got the young neighbor to help me with him, and he was begging us not to call an ambulance because it costs so much. He also won't run his AC because it costs too much. Got him to drink an old peeps shake that I bought for him that he says costs too much. He seems to have perked up a bit. At least he is yelling at the TV. And the nurse is coming who helps him with his catheter.

Are you sure you don't live in Phoenix? A lot of that is very familiar to me...

Yes. If you're traveling in one direction in a circle whilst listening to One Direction, you actually create the 10th circle of hell. And a demon that sounds like Harry Styles is summoned.

Even though you likely just used 1D because it's shorter, I'm calling you out for fangirling

So, I have to go to yet another funeral (uncle this time). Being the youngest of 8 and having a father who is the youngest of 6 means a lot of these in the upcoming years....:sad:

speaking of weddings, the one we went to this weekend was jam-packed with music. The bride is a music teacher, family members sing - all the music was done by family and none of it seemed like it was. You know what I mean? Like when cousin Sally sings at the wedding but she's really not that great? No, these singers/musicians were all good. A guy walked out to do a song and I leaned over to DH and said he must do this for real - the way he held his music, stood - it was just obvious that he was more than the normal "yeah I sing in church every now and then" type. Then he did a duet with his wife and they were amazing.

The bride was really into handbells, I guess, and when they went to do the recessional, people in the balcony stood up and surprised her with a little handbell song before they walked out. She had no idea and it was really sweet.


I looked up the singing couple later - one teaches high school choir, the other, music at Wartburg. She has her own website and has performed in multiple Midwestern operas. So yeah, they were pretty legit.

All of my aunts and uncles are gone now. This just got me thinking that other than my mother it's between me and a couple of cousins as to who is the oldest surviving member of my family.

Damn, probably going to be like C4M's neighbor in a few years.

With regards to the british accent, it's probably Hulu...a lot of the shows on there are BBC stuff. There's this cartoon the boys have been watching, it's a race car cartoon, called Roary the Racing Car...that's the name of the main character. After littlest00 went down for a nap, little00 said he wanted to watch roar-ay (Roary with a british accent). I would not allow him to watch it until he said it properly. I will not raise a kid with a stupid accent.

I played bells for my own wedding.

We had a song that I really loved - we called it "Crazy Bells" but the actual title was "Ring to the Lord a New Song". Took every single ringer we had, but I really wanted to use it for our processional. We ended up recording it and playing it back at the wedding.

Thanks. I fully deserve that.

Crazy bell people.

Nope. It WAS "Ring". Written for Bells. Totally different song.

Oh, I just figured it was the bell version of the same song. That would take quite a cadre of ringers as well.

I stand corrected...my apologies.
