Just out of curiousity...

What happens on the days that your mail doesn't come?...... Does anyone know? ......Does the mail man call in sick? Did he/she twist his ankle? Did the engine brake down? How about alien abductions? Because today is sure as hell not a holiday.

It was two days this week that we checked not once, but three times, all the way until 7pm, with nothing to show.

Are there days off that government employees get that us civilians aren't informed about?

For shit's sake. I'm waiting on some serious f-ing mail here. ...Specifically a letter from the judge telling us exactly what the next step in the process is of screwing our ex-landlord to the best of our abilities. We are clueless until this correspondence comes. Puh-lease keep your fingers crossed.

...On a lighter note, I think we figured our Halloween costumes out for the year. Matt saw a B-Obama mask at Walmart the other day. You know, the typical dark skin & over-emphasized ears... It was really good. Now all he needs is a black suit, a white shirt, a blue tie, a "change" button....... aaaaaand a cigarette (have you heard?). Then he'll be golden.

It got me thinking about my costume. And it'd be difficult to be Michelle, simply because I'd be unrecognizable. BUT.... Sarah Palin. I just might pull off a good Palin. I'm picturing some good thick K Mart black framed glasses, a french hair twist, a black suit, a shot gun, a wolf skin over my shoulder (I would say moose skin, but that just sounds like a lot of work), and a practiced Canadian accent (eh).....

...The truth is we haven't dressed up in years..... So if we do... I plan to take it to a whole other level. And if you see me on Halloween, just expect to hear complete Palin-ific rhetoric including, but not limited to, 'The Consummate Maverick', 'shoring up the economy', 'the umbrella of job creation', and let's not forget about 'Joe Six Pack' and his wife 'Franny'.
