Potty Mouth Lunchs
You know, I have to be the first one to admit that I have a horrendous potty mouth. Yes, folks, I curse and I swear and I sometimes sound like a truck driver (do truck drivers really swear so much that the phrase became a coined explanation?). I don't swear around my children.. no, because, for some reason, even though I think it's bullshit that most swear words are even considered swear words... it, just, as conformist as I apparently must be... wouldn't be right. But, believe you me (I'm full of those lovely phrases tonight), there is some little tiny switch in my brain that knows instinctively I can now say whatever I want. Sometimes this is not such a good switch to have. Like the first time I swore to my boss on the phone I thought "Damn, perhaps that wasn't such a good idea." (He didn't seem to care.) And, so this is, honest to goodness (needed to throw another one here, what does honest to goodness mean anyway?), one of the things I like so much about my friend I had lunch with today. She, is the truck driver on the other end of the CD radio man.
(No practice today.... my test install for my rollout went perfectly... perfecto! I was stoked... but, sadly, the first install on a production machine went south... SOUTH...way far south. *sob* and then I ended up burning my VPN connection... so I can't even fix it. Tomorrow's going to be a very *fun* day in adult-land.)
