Irony and randomness

I enjoy fishing overnight for catfish and bass. It's quiet, there are no kids that need entertaining, the weather is PERFECT and it's just quiet time. I stayed out last night until 3 am, and only caught one fish, not even a keeper. But it's enjoyable.

On the way home I took my usual short cut to the lake; a windy back road that's 99% void of anything but cattle. It's a beautiful windey road that mirrors a river bed and is lined with large cottonwoods. Best part is that it was a dirt road until a few years ago when they paved it...meaning the road is new, where most roads in this part of the state are worse than dirt roads.

Anyhow, I'm driving along and a county sheriff pulls up behind me and tailgates me for a long time. His damn lights were BRIGHT! I was getting pissed off, ready to pull over and either let him pass or save him the trouble of turning on his overheads.

Then I realized the song on the radio was, "I Shot the Sheriff." LOL

...............

On the way out to the lake, there was that stupid Nirvana song where the chorus is, "Rape ME..." over and over again. I actually like the song, but the words are stupid. If you request to be raped, then it's no longer rape. Role playing, sure, but not really rape.

I bought four large bunches of broccoli yesterday and the cashier charged me for bananas. She looked at the screen adn saw that it was ringing up bananas and just kind of shrugged and gave a sheepish look, trying to see if I had noticed. Cool because bananas are WAY cheaper than broccoli.

We have several dogs, one is a chihuahua. She is an amazingly sweet dog, but amazingly stupid. The weight of her stupidity is hard to explain, but here's a shot.

Cheryl walked into the bathroom one evening and Boo, the chihuahua, followed her. Cheryl left, turned off the light and teh dog started howling and crying. Cheryl went back in, turned the light on and the dog was just as happy as hell to see her. The dog got lost with the light off.

Yesterday Brianna had a friend come over to play. They dressed up one of our other dogs, Brigette, ( a schnauzer) in a dress and ribbons. Briggie and Boo had been playing for an hour together with Briggie dressed up like that. Then we let the two of them outside and suddenly Boo is vurious at whatever that creature wearing bows and a dress was. She literally freaked.

Lastly, she always runs and slides on the tile and slams into stuff...and she does it over and over and over again. She runs to jump on the chair and jumps too soon, smashing into the side of it...turns around and tries again, exactly the same way, exactly the same result. I think she should replace that litigation-happy John McCain.

Ha ha! I shot the sheriff...he didn't pull you over did he? That's so hilarious about your dog, especially the sliding on the tile part. My friend's dog does that too! Makes me laugh every time!

Nope, didn't get pulled over. He eventually passed me.

Where exactly are you in Arizona, that you are doing this fishing? White Mountains?
