Dumb Laws

Okay, so I finally got some sleep and I'm ready to go again...I think.

Today, I'm looking at dumb laws.  I'm typically a law-abiding citizen (I speed sometimes), so I want to make sure that I know where my boundaries are.  In the state that I live in, some of the laws I must follow are:

You may not have more than two dildos in a house.

Well, I own zero dildos, so: check.

Any misdemeanor committed while wearing a red mask is considered a felony.

No speeding with a red mask on: got it.

No more than six girls may live in any house.
Only 3 girls live in my house: good to go.

It is illegal for men and women over the age of 18 to have less than one missing tooth visible when smiling.
No missing teeth for me: thank goodness.

Whew! Looks like I won't be sent off to the slam any time soon.

Structured Format - (Topics +Time + Imagination) = To Hell With It

All right.  I gave my little gimmicky format a good run.  I wanted to challenge myself to stick to a particular format with this blog so I didn't find myself in a desperate rut and post crap like:

What did I learn today?  Life sucks.

  or

The world's youngest parents were from China in 1910.  They were 8 and 9.

The 5-point "lesson" was the reason most of my posts got deleted.  It worked out well enough that the damn blog didn't stall out.  Most of the time, though, I could only raise 2 or 3 good thoughts on the topic I wanted to address, so into the scrap heap it went.

So today's lesson:  It's time to retire that particular style.

Lack Of Internet + Lack Of Time x Lack Of Ambition = Lack Of Writing

Today's lesson:  This last week has been horrible at work and at home.  I've opened up my Blogger dashboard a few times this last week just to stare stupidly at it for about an hour, and then close it back up again.  That is, whenever I could even get on the internet....

What did I learn?

• Well, for one, I learned that I'll write no matter what.  I just won't do it here.  I found an online tutorial for writing HTML.  I'm not that far, and the lessons are not all that sophisticated, but I thought it would be to my advantage to learn something about it.  It was posted up in 2000, but it still seems to work well.  So far anyway, I'm only on lesson 8d.
• My computer has a button that connects/disconnects me with the network.  Huh.  It's a shiny blue button that my kids like to mash.  That's nice to know.
• Mr. A has been trying to entice me into playing an online game with him.  I like video games, but I typically shy away from playing games with 1/2 the world.  This game, however, has a character builder that appeals to my super tedious nature. I don't have so much fun playing the game, but I'm having a great time making characters and then deleting them.
• There is no 3 Strikes Law for when illness hits me, my home and my work at the same time.  Oh, and for some reason, everyone else that's sick gets to take time off from work, but not me.
• My kids can smell weakness, fear and exhaustion.  I have the bite marks to prove it.
