Catch the Wind - Update
I get more random visitors from my post on
"Catch the Wind" so I thought I would add an update. About a week ago I started hearing the faster (Dylanish) version of the song on a GE commercial for wind power or some such. Other Donovan songs spotted in the past few months:
"Happiness Runs" on a Cheerios commercial.
"Hurdy Gurdy Man" on a commercial for the movie "The Zodiac" which was actually kind of upsetting to me in a weird way. I don't like that song associated with murder!
Still there
Monday morning, I was driving into work and was stopped behind a school bus. I suddenly realized I was near the Elmo house. Not only was I near the house, Elmo's probable owner was boarding the bus. I looked up on the roof and Elmo was still there. Elmo was still there this afternoon. Elmo might be there a while.
Yesterday was just craptastic...
- It was the Monday after break.
- I had a phone message from a student who had been hospitalized, pneumonia, out of breath, etc etc. It was over two minutes long. And completely unnecessary; if you are in the hospital, catch up on the work later!
- I missed a dress I wanted off Ebay.
- I forgot my check when I went to the bank and had to drive back to work and get it.
- The Taco Bell in Mooresville is the only one that consistently understands "bean burrito no onions" and I wish I had gone to that location.
- I came home to take a nice bath to recover and there was a shortage of hot water.
All in all no one item was too terrible but add them together and it is just so irritating.
Random Observation #358
I was driving through an old residential area on my way to work yesterday. You know the type of area... old houses, train tracks, feed store. As I was driving past one of the houses near the Feed Bucket I saw a kid's Elmo doll laying on the roof. I wonder if it will still be there a week from now when I go back to work.
