Well, well, well. I don't know what to make of a phone call I recieved several minutes ago. Yesterday I received a call from BankofAmerica about a health plan. I didn't want it because, well, although it was 14 dollars a month, the library doesn't pay that much. Anyway, several minutes ago I guess I got a follow up call for yesterday, but it sounded like she was about to start the same description of the plan to me. So, I informed her that I had received a call about the same thing the day before. She asked and answered the question, "what was my answer to the plan?" she made it sound like NO was all people have been saying to her. I said that she had made it sound "negative". BANG! She called me or my statement "Ridiculous". That's the part that is making me dwell on the issue. Did she call me ridiculous? I was trying to sound thoughtfull at HOW she said it. I wanted to be nice about it and not be rude. Maybe I do say things that confuses people. I'm just an idiot when it comes to conversations. Hell, sometimes people don't understand me. Maybe that's why she thought I was ridiculous. You see, I was off to a good vacation, and I now I feel like a moronic orator that doesn't know when to shut up. On a poetic side, here's an old one:
Rabbits in the garden.
Snakes in the meadow.
Roaches in the pantry, and baby eating cookie dough.
The fly in the cake.
The worm in the ground.
The snail on the window, and the spider is all but bound.
Birds in the sky.
Cows in the field.
Wolves in the forest, and the big dog is heeled.
Hang man, hang man what am I to do?
Hang man, hang man why am I so blue?
Can it be lonliness or is it despair?
Is it the clothes I wear or is it my hair?
Maybe it’s just myself or maybe it’s them.
Why can’t I find myself a perfect little gem?
I call it "Ode to the ridiculous guy who says the word 'Negative' out of context and sounds like a dumnass for ever having said Negative in the first place and who maybe doesn't get out of college because his professors will figure out that he really is stupid and really isn't acting!!!" :>(
