Random Tuesday Thoughts

Time flies, except for when you are paying off a loan. It seems like there have been 8 Christmas mornings since I started paying my 5 year auto loan. They need to make a viagra type pill for common sense. The funny thing about the transformer robots, is that they are advanced beings from the deepest realms of the universe, and they just happen to form into Kenworths and Camaros! I like how the scale for rating a hurricane sounds so scientific, but when you really look at it, it is just a scale of windspeeds, a third grader could have thought it up. Why was Archie Bunker considered a bigot, yet, George Jefferson was not? I had a friend in high school that actually got Cat Scratch Fever from a cat. I was watching some videos of me when I was in my early 20's, it was really depressing, I should post some! When you watch a movie, do you ever recast it in your head, trying to decide who might be better in a role? Is there anyone that you work with who annoys you to the point where you hate going to work because of them? I have a co-worker that is so far up my ass that his name should be "Colonoscopy". Is it going to rain every afternoon this Summer??? I am starting to wonder why anyone would ever want to save a rain forest? (That is a joke, please refrain from lectures on saving the planet! LOL!) When you are working construction in an existing neighborhood, someone always gets pissed at you for being there. Do they really think that I want to be there? In the original "Star Wars " Movies, there were only like 2 women in the whole galaxy! Is there any wonder that the princess was named "Leia"! In "Die Hard 2" planes were circling Dulles airport for hours, waiting to run out of fuel. There are only about 700 major airports within an hour of flight time that they could have landed at! I have an irrational fear of being an organ donor, fear that maybe they might not try quite as hard to save me! I know, it is silly!

Speaking of silly and funny, visit The Un Mom!!!

You had me at "Viagra pill for common sense." Your Tuesday Random Thoughts are the best thing about your blog (and there's lots of good stuff here). Keep it up! (No Viagra pun intended).

Dude. Don't question the Transformers. They are more than meets the eye.

And yes, I have someone like that at my office. He's called The Boss.

Little Ms Blogger said...

Your random thoughts remind me of my dreams - no rhyme or reason to them.

Loved your observation about original Star Wars....so very true.

Eternally Distracted said...

I have a colleague who STANDS on the toilet when SHE pees ... I HATE her!! Don't ask me to prove it but it's true!

Mango Girl said...

As always, wonderful random thoughts... you're getting rain EVERY afternoon this summer? Must be the organ donor gods looking out for you... gonna have to rethink this whole "give a piece of my body to a stranger" thing.

Ronda Laveen said...

Otin, please send me some of your rain, please. In return, I'll send you some of my 110-115 degree days. Sheesh. Sweatin' in Cali.

Candie Bracci said...

Candie Bracci said...

I can actually picture you laughing about your own jokes while writing your posts,isn't it?LOL :D

Beth said...

You are right, common sense is not that common. Too bad there really isn't a pill.

And post the videos. We won't make fun of you. I promise.

Gaston Studio said...

Your Random Tuesday posts are my absolute favorites! There's always a bit of truth, a bit of whimsy, a bit of humor, and a bit of sarcasm. Keep it up Otin.

Brian Miller said...

Nikki said...

"Is there anyone that you work with who annoys you to the point where you hate going to work because of them?"

YES, there was!! I thank all of my lucky stars that she quit.

And holy crap, you're like a super pro at this random thing. I was so confused lol.

blueviolet said...

I had that same organ donor fear for years too! I've since decided if it's that close to call, just call it. I'm done.

Princess Leia! LMAO

Optimistic Pessimist said...

i think you no my co-worker situation!

Whew...I'm all caught up on your blog.

Smart Mouth Broad said...

Yeah, common sense......not so common.

rxBambi said...

I love Random Tuesdays! I need to do mine, it's been a while. Never thought of the Leia connection in Star Wars, very funny! My sister got cat scratch fever from a cat too! Check her out (gingersassychronicals.blogspot.com) but that might not be right. Let me know. Also talk to OP about co-workers, she's got some good stories.
Thanks for making tuesday just a little better!

Captain Dumbass said...

I had a co-worker like that. I think she actually has some type of mental disorder.

I'm now thinking of Princess Leia in her slave outfit. Mmmmm....

♥georgie♥ said...

That is some fabolous RANDOMNESS!!! Loved it!

Hit 40 said...

My boys have kept me busy driving them around today!! Oh.. and I tutored a girl about 4 hours to help her pass a test tomorrow. I have a lot of time invested in this class with her. WE WILL PASS IT!!! Anyway I am bummed that I got here late....

I did not know there really was a cat scratch fever? Nuts.

Teaching rocks because you can shut your door and hide from your coworkers. Plus, I know the gym teacher. So, I can hide in the athletic office with the door shut. Life is good when you make the right friends.

Interesting about the organ donor thing. I am signed up for it. In general, it is never a good idea to be at the hospital alone when you are sick. You need someone to help you make decisions or get someone to help you. Although after a couple ER visits.... I know how to get their attention.

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) said...

If you ever find a pill for common sense, please hook me up - I'd be slipping it into hubby's morning coffee to help out... ;)

Definitely post the videos! Go, Otin, Go! :)

I had one of those co-workers when I was working...the bad part was that she was my boss, and she was the biggest b*tch on the planet. Seriously.

You can send some rain our way - we could sure use it! My plants are looking a bit wilted since I've been neglecting them for blogging...

ROTFLMAO!! Princess Leia... ;)

Happy RTT! :)

Ms. Salti said...

I'd love to see some of those videos! I still haven't seen Transformers 2... I need to see it soon! Hopefully hurricane season this year is mellow!

Midtown Girl said...

I am STILL paying off my NYU undergrad loan!!

I keep forgetting about it bc they automatically take it out of my checking so I never get an actual bill...dammit!

XOXO

Medora said...

Transformers are way cool - we adore Bumblebee.

As for Archie and George - you know the answer to that one. Duh.

Girl Interrupted said...

Woah! That was a whole bunch of random!

"Time flies except for when you are paying off a loan" lol I hear ya! That could be the quote of the century ... for me personally, anyway :P

O said...

I want to see the videos!

Check this out Otin - 3 posts in 3 days. This is surely some kind of record!!

Keely said...

Hey, I do have a guy like that at work, in fact. He's OBNOXIOUSLY cheerful. You just want to punch him in the teeth.

On an unrelated topic, the office switched to decaf.

ReformingGeek said...

It's the people that make or break a job.

I loved the comment about "Die Hard 2". I thought the same thing but then they would have had to think of something else, right?

Baino said...

Yep always recast movies and you should post yours!
Hmm . . the organ donor thing is interesting. I am one but not sure I like the reason that you just have to be ‘brain dead’. I might have a quick spark of activity and ooops . .too late . .liver’s already gawn!
