My Dragon Fly and Me



If I could be a Dragon Fly
and wing my way through the sky
I would never be shy
just me and my Dragon Fly!

By moonlight we ride the wind
chase the comets tail for fun
by day we would hide from the sun
our fragile wings would come undone

On darkest nights we would use
fireflies as our guide
we would dip and we would glide
through the heavens open wide
and scatter diamonds in the night sky
my Dragon Fly and me...

And we would wing past our lovers
silent in the night...
to kiss their face in our flight
much to their surprise and delight
my Dragon Fly and me in sight...

Such a view do we share
away up here in the air
of breezes soft through our hair
my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

Jim wakes up, at home, with a huge hangover.  He forces himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a couple of asprins, next to the glass of water on the night stand.  Next to them is a single red rose!

He sits down and sees his clothes, all cleaned and pressed, in front of him.

He looks around the room and sees it is in perfect order, spotlessly clean. He takes the asprin and cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at him in the bathroom mirror. He then notices a note on the table, "Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I left early to go shopping, Love you!"

He stumbles to the kitchen and sure enough there is a hot breakfast, and the morning paper.  His son is also at the table eating.

Jim asks "Son...what happened last night"?

"Well,you came home after 3 AM, drunk and out of your mind.  You broke some furniture ,  puked in the hallway and got that black eye when you ran into a door."

"so , why is everything so clean and in such perfect order, I have a rose and breakfast is on the table waiting for me?"

His son replies,"OH THAT...Mom dragged you upstairs, and when whe tried to take your pants off, you screamed, "Leave me alone woman,I'm married"!

Broken furniture               $85.26

Hot breakfast                       4.20

Red Rose Bud                        3.00

Two Aspirin                          0.38

Saying the right thing at the right time........PRICELESS

I think I'm in DEEP doo-doo....

I told my wife to get dressed up last night, & we'd go out to dinner at some fancy place.  She commented that the dresses she has are just a "little" tight, because she's put on a few pounds lately, but I didn't say anything.

She came down wearing one of those dresses & asked how'd she looked.

I commented that she looks fine, but might wanna straighten her pantyhose, because her butt looked "wrinkly".

Her gaze turned icy.  She replied:

"I'm NOT wearing pantyhose"

I just can't win.....

Tom, you must never answer a loaded question such as How do I look! Don’t suggest a thing, that’s why you in the doghouse.

Oh, it is melting away, I read some places in Alaska received 25 inches of snow.

We had rain, and if it were snow we would be shoveling out, too.

The last time I measured we had 20”. It started Friday about 8a as sleet. As the temps dropped during the day it turned more and more to snow and then really SNOW!! By afternoon it was becoming white out. I am really surprised management didn’t let everyone go home early afternoon (and for the first time payroll would have gotten to go, as all issues had been handled). We took a vote among us, and decided to leave. Getting home was a trip, as my gas tank was on E...I was going to Costco gas after work (the best laid plans). I knew I couldn’t be stuck in traffic very long. I made it halfway home when traffic came to a stop. I could see a station, but not get to it. We slowly moved forward enough that I could catch a side street and get into the station...WHEW!! Maybe 10” when I got home, and it kept coming down til the wee hours.

WOW, riding in on the fumes! Ma you gotta remember to fill up before you get to empty, thank goodness you got to the station in time.

Well 20 inches is close enough to 2 feet for me. Spring storms can be huge dumps of snow. We have had them in years past, good thing about them is we know they will not last.
