Who Says You Shouldn't Have Vodka For Breakfast?
If I were to be honest with you, I'd have to say that in the last few months, I'm pretty much this;

a loose cannon.
And I'm a couple straws short of going completely

ape

shit
(oh calm down, it's not real.)
on someone, anyone actually, that fucks with me, or someone I love, or someone I like, or someone I don't even know.
And actually, I'm wondering lately if I need to drink more...or less.
And I'm also left wondering if our friends are friends with me out of love? Or fear?
On our Anniversary, Will and I walked the dogs down to our favorite antique shop and treated ourselves to some awesome old Mexican terracotta cookware. I've been eyeing it for sometime now and thought that 5 years (aka 35 gay years) deserved a treat...in the form of clay pottery. How gay are we? There used to be a time when kayaks and new ski equipment was my priority. But, now it's antique cookware???
Welcome to gaytown.
Anyway, on our way home, one of the dogs took a dump in the front yard of someone who was at least 130 years old. Which is cool, I'm all for respecting the elderly, unless they're fuckers. Then, being the loose cannon that I am, if you're a fucker, I don't care if you're on the verge of your last breath, I'm going to tell you so.
And unfortunately, I did. Just not in those words.
I'm not proud of it. But, this is what happened...for better, but probably for worse.
Wednesday took the dookie, then as I was retrieving a bag from my pocket, the 130 year old Satan came out on his porch and said something to Will.
And Will replied to him, "Yeah, we have a bag."
So, being already to throw down, I turned to Will and said, "What did he say?"
And Will said, "He wanted to make sure that we were going to pick it up."
So, I turned to Lucifer, who was flaring his nostrils and staring at us and said, "We're picking it up."
And he said, "Pick it up."
And I said, "I'm going to."
And he said, "Pick it up."
And I said, "I'M GOING TO."
And he said, "Pick it up."
At this moment, there was no going back.
This is the point where I left my body, as I occasionally can do.
Had I been sitting on the couch, this is what you would've seen.

I said, with my voice rising, "What do you think the bag is for?? Do you think that I'm going to pull a poop out of my own ass???" (While miming the action of using the bag to pull crap out of my butt. I can't believe that I actually MIMED THAT ACTION.)
And he continued his assault, "Pick it up."
And my character continued to deteriorate, while my voice raised some more, "Why don't I pick it up and smear it on your face???"
And he said, "Pick it up." (Which I had by now, he was just stuck in replay.)
And then I started yelling, "WHY DON'T I JUST SMEAR IT ON YOUR WINDOWS!!! HUH??? WOULD YOU LIKE THAT?? I'LL JUST SMEAR IT ON YOUR WINDOWS!! YEAH!!!"
At this point, 2 car loads of Mexicans pulled up and I thought, that's it. The whole family is here and we're going to be in a full-on brawl. I'm going to have to say, "Hold on while I set my antique terracotta cookware down some place safe...Okay, BRING IT, FUCKERS!! LET'S SALSA!!"
Then, mean fucker realized that I had picked up the poop (which I wish I hadn't) and said, "Go on, get out of here."
I was beyond evil now. Hell didn't even want me.
So, then I yelled even louder, seriously scaring everyone in sight, "WHAT IF I PUT IT IN YOUR MAILBOX!!! YEAH!!! I'M GOING TO PUT SHIT IN YOUR MAILBOX!! WHADDYA THINK ABOUT THAT!!! HUH???"
No one wanted a piece of me.
He continued with his farewells, "Go on, get out of here."
I turned and while I walked away with my antique pottery, as far as Will was concerned, I had stopped screaming. But in actuality, I had reached an octave that only dogs could hear.

And while some folks have nice wreaths of sunflowers on their front door for Summer, this is what will appropriately be on ours. Giving everyone fair warning.

So, I'm thinking that vodka in my oatmeal in the morning isn't such a bad idea. Or maybe some pot brownies...with tranquilizer frosting.

If you're putting vodka in your oatmeal, I'm putting rum in my waffles (actually, not a bad idea) because although I've had no run-ins with cranky, elderly neighbors, I'm this (pressing two fingers together) close!

I'll tell you Kevin, I was EXACTLY like that for the past few years.
As soon as I quit my job it melted away. I'm actually a fairly happy guy now. Not gay, mind you, but happy.
You should go back and leave the crap on his doorstep- in a burning bag.
I have a lien secifically for such people. Its harsh, cruel adn seven kinds of wrong, but if they ask for it, they get it. It is:
Most people your age die, why dont you?
If you are really good with the delivery, they do just that, keel over and die. Interfering fuckers.
Loving you as always kitten

Vodka in the oatmeal, huh? I may have to post that recipe on my blog....with a nice honey rum syrup? ;) Ancientman would have pissed me right off, too. I'm envious of your antique Mexican cookware, btw. I think you and Will should head to a spa for the weekend...get all massaged and pampered...you'll feel brand new afterwards. Sorry things are so stressful for you, Kevin. (hug)
No you Dint!
Damn, I wish Will had video of that.
I think I'm gettin' a little loose too lately...I have no patience whatsoever.
were much kinder than I think I would have been. That guy clearly had a bigger problem than the poop.
Vodka? Breakfast of Champions!
*you (oops, left out the you)
While laughing the entire time I read this, what was really on my mind was the cookware. Pics?
(Who's gay now?)
well if youre a loose cannon. you should try pooting at him.
That should do it.
( i cant beleive im encouraging you. am i girl?)
Maybe Vokda with a side of Prozac.
I bet he didn't even speak English... or he was hard of hearing.
First of all... test the glaze on that cookware for lead. Don't get yourself all poinsoned-up!
And B... I have some folks near me that you can come yell at if you run out of targets where you are. You sound like a loose but USEFUL canon!
Oh! What a horrible, horrible man. Seriously, I guess the only way to console yourself is to imagine that he is probably a really sad, angry little person with chancres in bad places.
I love that you got antique cookware!
And I love that you were a loose cannon with that old geezer. Sounds as if he deserved it, with his taunting and all.
You're my soul sister--er--brother. Whatever. You sound just like me.
Maybe that's all he knew how to say anyway. You were probably the highlight of his entire year! I'm not good with types like that, so I moved out to the country where I can sword fight with raccoons instead. I'm not sure it was the best idea, mind you.
(That whole rum in the waffles idea above sounds fantastic. I may have to experiment with that one...)
I stumbled upon your blog this afternoon, and now I really want a t-shirt that says, "BRING IT, FUCKERS! LET'S SALSA!"
All I could picture in my head (in between gasps for air in between laughter) was Jim Carrey squatting on his neighbor's lawn to do a dookie in 'Me, Myself, & Irene'.
I so would have wanted to do that...all while screaming at Lucifer.
I also keep hearing Ruth Fisher (from Six Feet Under) saying "Who would send us feces?"
Dude, I SO want to go walking with you and your dogs sometime! My phone has a video camera option. And then we could record stuff like this and make it rich somehow...(does YouTube pay?)
I've tried the less coffee, more Ativan approach. My family is extremely grateful and I am numb. Yawn.
I'm having a double latte (or three) for breakfast tomorrow and the damn fam will just have to suck it up.
L'tl old jerk.
ATTBBOBSE!!!!
Damn, Frances! Methinks a special bloggy friend may need a massage. Or a tranq dart. You know, whichever is more convenient and DOESN'T result in Wednesday poop festooning the side of my face.
LMAO Jessica! Kevin! Start selling those t-shirts! Pleeeeaasee!!!! I'll totally buy one. Or ten. hahahaha!
vodka has plenty of benefits as a breakfast staple...or at least i plan on undergoing testing to prove this
Preacher man actually bagged some of Harley's shit and brought it to our neighbor who accused him of not picking it up.
There was no walking in love that day. ~giggles~
Vodka will only make it worse. Chinese Medicine doctors would tell you to eat lots of green thing - broccoli, spinach, stuff like that.
Me? My only response is this:
Let's hope this passes before you come east again. That kind of thing will get you killed in Colorado. Hell, it'll get me killed here.
I'm grateful you live in a mellower place.
I kept waiting for you to say you threw it at him. When I completely come unhinged, I have this uncontrollable urge to throw things. I'm real mature.
"Welcome to gaytown."
Is that anywhere near Funkytown?
Please. I would have had your back if you started yelling "Did I stutter" to the old fart. Sometimes I think we keep too much in. It builds up till we're ready to blow. And blow we do.
I like that you stood up to that old codger. Good grief! Old people are becoming so sassy these days! I, too, fly off sometimes, but, with my new meds, I'm doing much, much better. Now, I plan ahead and only take the dogs out walking after dark. Then, nobody sees their business...
Lotta sent me - so glad she did. Of course I just woke up everyone by laughing, including my prison guard neighbor. D'oh
Oh. My. Gawd. I haven't laugh so hard at a post in months. Out loud! I kept thinking, the poop WAS going to end up on the window.
BTW, I have put rum in the batter for french toast and it is quite yummy.
PS Lotta sent me
Can you come unleash your ass and your shit on my soon-to-be-ex hubby...cuz I would like...PAY to see that!!!! ;)
