my special day

[ikkarus01]

Almost exactly one year ago, this happened:

ikkarus01: Mother's Day kind of snuck up on me. the jerk.
bell_0: I hate all the Hallmark holidays. but this one never sneaks up on me. which is not to say that I'm ever prepared for it.
ikkarus01: They should add Mean-Spirited Jerk Day, so I can get presents.
bell_0: catchy name, you might be on to something

There's A Girl?

Consider my curiosity piqued.

[ikkarus01]

Yes, there is A Girl, and has been for what can now be officially labeled "a few months". I'm not sure what all to say about that beyond "GO ME" and "YAY".

She is very nice, which makes me wonder just what in hell she likes about me. But I don't do much of that wondering aloud, as I prefer that she doesn't give that topic too much critical thought.

GO YOU!! YAY!!

Also, *I* think you're funny & awesome, so she's probably not totally insane.

[ikkarus01]

Aw, shucks

Randy & I actually remembered Mean Spirited Jerks Day, but there wasn't anyone worthy of rock throwing.

[ikkarus01]

I'm pretty sure you can just throw rocks at random passersby if there aren't any other rock-worthy targets available.

Wow, that's a professional looking Mean-Spirited Jerk Day rock! You sure you didn't immediately throw it at the nearest waiter/waitress and then tell them how they privileged they should feel being one of the first few to celebrate this new holiday!?!?

[ikkarus01]

I didn't want to get waiter all over my pretty stone. That stuff stains something fierce.

I approve of this post, except for the non-rock-throwing part. You definitely should have thrown it. But don't kick him in the nads; remember, he did give you a gift!

Seeing as how I'm the only one keeping the holiday alive at this point, not throwing a rock at me is the best way to ensure there will be another one =)

Also, I asked him not to in the card that came with it =P

[ikkarus01]

In keeping with the true spirit of the holiday, that request should have been viewed as an invitation to throw the rock at you, as that would be both mean-spirited, and jerkish.

But it's a damn nice gift, and I didn't want to lose it. I guess that's more like a Selfish Jerk Day reaction, but whatever.

That rock looks a lot like these little memorial stones that my friend Sue has for her pets. They're smaller discs with colored stones embedded around the rim and the name of the pet and the year he died on the front.

I think it's funny that your larger disc (human size) has no pretty colored stones around its rim (because why would a jerk get such niceties?) and the date is on the back instead of the front.

It's as though the stone is saying "Here lies jerk. You wanna see what year he died? Flip over the rock, bitch!"

[ikkarus01]

It's even better when the stone is also the cause of death.
