Dreaming Opposition

I stumble, feet first, from the comfortable warm glow of my loveliest lady and through the bedroom door gateway to the world becomes my kitchen. I pull a cup of tea from the same device that has left the sweet sound of losing dreams and the song switches over to NPR’s Morning Edition. There’s nothing like warm tea and talk radio to inspire me to flame up some wonderfully iron skilleted pancakes for the boy and I to enjoy in our grogginess. My lack of hair shines under the dim light of our morning complimenting his stack of bedhead as he falls face first into eating his flapjacks.

…

In the shower, I’m shaving my face, a fogless mirror that also plays my favorite morning tunes thanks to the WiFi connection it has been secretly love affairing with my laptop. Oldies Rock classics are great for waking up…

flapjacks isn’t the hardest word to stop hating and start liking

haha, i used it with steve for humor the other day while exiting altoona’s new barnes and noble out near the best buy. steve ran into a mother of one of his wrestlers and she made sure to acknowledge his friend with him – me.

i said to him, ‘whew, who was that tasty looking flapjack’

and we laughed and went on to talk about this post.

note: i failed to mention her looking sweet (or tasty) as syrup.

This syrupy flapjack of a girlie comes waltzing through the door, half drunk on last nights tall and colds and half exhuberant at the thought of her own reflection, I wittle away at an old stick humming a tune fit for a mufflers orchestra…

I think I’m drinking from a dirty cup here.
