Yesterday was just a sucky day. My shortstat died, I turned down an interview with a dream company, my 5x7 I was getting developed at the one hour place took more like eight hours, and to top it all off, it was just plain hot outside. I don't function well in the heat. Satan has it out for me.
Details:
For those of you who don't know, shortstat is a little piece of code that tracks how many hits your site has gotten, any referrals, etc etc. Not like I get a lot, but it's still fun to check. Some would say it's addicting. (If I didn't know any better, I'd say shortstat is the ingredient that follows urine, in the crystal meth recipe.) So turns out I have a botched up mySQL db and I need to wipe it. Futon.
As for the job interview, I turned it down because it wasn't in the new 'Career Path' that I am creating for myself. Not that I actually KNOW what that is, but what better way to start than by turning down interviews. I have no career path. Futon.
So, I take my 5x7 in to get developed, at the ONE HOUR PLACE. The name hints that your film would be developed in an hour. I figure, I'm only getting ONE picture done, this should be like, two maybe four minutes, max. Eight hours later, my picture is ready. In a nice glossy finish. I asked for matte. Futon.
To top it all off, it was like Hades yesterday here. I think the max temp hit 89 degrees. That's Farenheit people. I over heard one couple complaining in the parking lot of the Eight Hour Film place; the wife was yelling, "I'm melting, I'm MELTING"... her husband responded with, "I can't feel my legs!!!".

Record highs here! 106 in the shade...I am LOVING it. Reminds me of Fresno and, as I have mentioned before, there is nothing better in my mind than Fresno...especially those warm evenings. On top of the heat, we've been getting thunder and lightening and even a sprinkle or two. Enjoy the heat and remeber reprints are NEVER done in an hour!

Motherfu, Scorchin' gave you the "what's for". That's messed up. I'd like to remind Scorchin' that this isn't Scorchinfuton dot com, it's Motherfuton and it should be treated as such.
Wait. Is Scorchin' your new nemesis? Is this some sort of interview or something? Oh, I get it, you're testing Scorchin' to see if they can really deal a death-blow. In that case, MF, you should tell El Scorcho to kiss your grits and look for work elsewhere.
Just one man's opinion.

Am I to assume this one little attack has silenced you Mother Futon? Have I won the battle so easily? You don't need a nemisis, but a lap dog instead...

The only person who I know that enjoys the heat, and the valley, is named...mmmmSatan?

Futon are not good hot weather beds. The cushion really absorbs the heat.
