The day off, 2 in fact, they've juggled my schedule, big plans, no plans, an empty inbox and the world's my oyster.
So much to do....
I haven't yet made a list, I'll save it...
I have to catch up on my blogging, but that can wait. First stop will be the flea market, then Higher Ground. Chill for half an hour or so, then call a friend for coffee. Then home, nap, laundry, eat, dishes, ...
2 days off and the world's my oyster...
Locked Out

Twice this week it's happened. Get dressed, lock door, step outside, close door.
Check door to see it's properly locked.
Pat yourself down to ensure you have your keys.
Damn.
Check door to see if you really locked it or if you can force it open with a push.
Pat yourself down again and double check for your keys.
Walk around the house, check the side door, the back door...
Locked.
Try the basement window. Open. And it takes about 5 minutes to force it open, it's a small window, only opens about 10 inches, and another 5 minutes to wriggle through it and drop to the basement floor. I get stuck on first on my genitals, then on my belt, but eventually fall through and work my way upstairs.

It's the Dynamite-Dave rap. I sing it to him when we're slow:
"I'm Dynamite Dave,
And I'm here to save,
Your soul.
No Eternal Damnation,
let Dave be your Salvation..."
He smiles, he likes it. Then he thinks for a second and frowns:
"But you're not Dynamite Dave...I am!"

"Kit-Kat" he says, and does a Vulcan Salute. He's talking to the hostess. I'm eavesdropping and puzzled.
- "Kit-Kat?"
"Kit-Kat. 2 in the pink, 2 in the stink. Just call me four-fingered Frankie...."
