Randomness

It's funny how, when I've had half a drink, I am flooded with possible blogging topics. Of course, I'm also weak to self control and shall not save any of these topics for later days but will hog them all in one post.

Note to self: drink more.

Subtitle: Weiners

Today the girls and I went to a local park for a playdate. The park is surrounded by baseball fields, and many games were in progress when we arrived. Parked near the playground was the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile.

(No, this isn't the one, but I can't be bothered with a search for best pic.) Now many may think that Sumter is one of the most backwoods places ever, but I tell you what, if the Weinermobile will grace Sumter with its presence, then that's obviously not the case. How many of you have seen the Weinermobile? Do you have a Weinermobile-shaped whistle (which suspiciously looks like a penis) to show for it? Yah, I thought so.

Subtitle: Acclimating (omg in my buzziness I've forgotten how to spell - is this right?)
eta: Thank you for the correction, mister mrtl.

I've mentioned that I was going to start a moms' group here, and I have, and it's coming along... slowly. Church is pretty big here -- go figure -- and so many already have their social outlets intact.

::tangent to mention my voting experience::
While in line to vote, a linemate said something about coming to vote to see the neighbors she hadn't seen in four years. I replied that I, shamefully, didn't know many of my neighbors yet. She asked where I lived. Turns up she's on my street. The girls had even nick-named her house ("Butterfly House," for the butterly-attracting bush by her mailbox). We chatted, and I learned that she has a babysitting daughter and is involved in a neighborhood Bunco group and asked if I'd be interested in sitting in for absentees. Woo! My foot! It's in the door!

Anyway, I've learned one major thing from my organizing experience: I'd much rather be an Ass Organ. An Ass Organ (Assistant Organizer) is soooo much better. Ass Organs don't have the pressure on them to deliver the playgroup goods to the membership. They don't have to guess where the members want to be, and when they'll be able to be there. They don't have to try measure after measure to get members to participate in message board chatter. They don't have to deal with the unpleasantries of turning members away or kicking existing members out for not meeting the most minimal of expectations. How I wish I were an Ass Organ again. Oh to have the power without the responsibility! SUCK!

Subtitle: Salt vs. Pepper

One day, as I went to sprinkle some salt on something, I discovered a fucking bug in the salt shaker. He was a wee bug, but he was in the freakin' salt shaker! Today as I grinded pepper into my egg, the thought occurred to me that I wouldn't notice a bug in the pepper.

Pepper. It may have protein in it.

Are you in Sumter, South Carolina. Cause on 11/4/08 I was eating at stelletos restaurant over there behind Shaw AFB and my I saw what looked to be the Oscar Mayer wiener mobile driving by really fast by the window, but when I told my brother and Mom by they time they turned around it was gone. So did you see it at Dillon park?? Because no one believes me I have searched in google If anyone else has saw it and I came here. Did you see it on the 8th or the 4th because I saw it on election day. I asked Kraft foods on their website buy they haven't said anything back (supriseing I know) If you get this please tell me if you saw it too. I would finally have someone else that saw it.

Ass Organ is WAY better than Main Organ (or Main Member as I like to call it) and yet I still think being an Ass Organ has too many drawbacks right now. You are a goddess for being a Main Member.

Does that make you a phallic symbol the the wiener mobile?
