My weekend is over and now its back to the ole' grindstone, or whatever the old saying is. Though, this grindstone isnt all that bad, its not even ten oclock yet and I've already had a lunch break, and I plan on having another after two so I can check my yahoo mail. The board looks pretty bare of traffic, so unless planes start dropping from nowhere, its gonna be a nice and slllooooowwwww day. So not much to whine about today (which wamps cause whining is so much fun). In this past weekends travels, I went to france, the balck forrest, part of the alps, and rothesburge (sp?). And a whole lot of other places inside of france and bavaria and the black forrest and the alps, but I dont remember any of the names, lol. Hey, I remembered the roghesburge thing. I also got to see a coo-coo clock... alot of coo-coo clocks. I'm talking like walls and walls and walls and walls and you get the point. Many many coo-coo clocks. At first I enjoyed the novelty of them, they operate the old fassion way, grears and weights and tic tocs and whatnot, but eventually... their novelty changed into more of an annoyance (ah, I knew I'd find something to whine about!). Its a clock, with fake little people or birds or whatever you want to pop out and tell you what time it is! And who says that you want some freaky little wood cutout that looks like a horror movie prop reject to tell you what time it is anyways. And they all look the exact same, there is some kind of house, and they all just happen to be two story which is so bogus, cause hey, come on, people live in one story houses too, and even apartments. So they could at least be realistic, but no, they all have to be little magical cottages with little prop rejects whose sole purpose in life is to scream at you that its a new hour. I only care when its lunchtime, or time to wake up, any other time that a clock makes a noise is just an unwanted outburst waiting to be knocked off the wall. And another thing, yeah, a magical little cottage is cool and fine, but when you mass produce the little buggers, the magic just isnt there anymore! And exhale.... that was fun. Stay tooned for more bitterness at inanimant objects to come!

I'm gonna go pretend to work...
