The Daily News
1 You can be a little ungrammatical if you come from the right part of the country.
---Robert Frost
2 Ain't it the truth.
3 Man.
4 I'm frazzled this morning.
5 I don't know why exactly.
6 I didn't listen to the news.
7 I haven't watched a Niner game in a few days.
8 I get really jumpy when I hear noises outside.
9 It might be what happened last week. That warning about thunderstorms and floods ate me up.
10 Helene told me that if there are thunderstorms or floods, you should get into a bathtub and hold onto something.
11 What if you find yourself driving along a levee?
12 Bye, Bye...
13 My phone just buzzed and I jumped three feet into the air.
14 Oh, sometimes I think I must go mad.
15 Plan change now taking place on Twinterest!
16 I'm thinking about having a Hostess Twinkie right now.
17 Ah, I passed by a box on the sink last night. It was a subliminal plant. Probably the Man.
18 Anybody lookin'?
19 I gotta make like a biscuit and roll.
20 Okay, okay; I'll stop.
21 Just a little whimsy, no reason. Steadies the nerves.
22 Moving On, Part One: I worked my way back to Josh and Caitlin's house yesterday and parked it in their new rocking chair.
23 The babies calmed down after a difficult morning, so the momentary peace was right fine.
24 The sun came over my shoulder while I rocked. It still felt like summer vacation. This is pretty late into the year for that. Are we out of the drought yet? Anyway, the sun felt wonderful.
25 It also showed all the fingerprints and dust on my laptop screen.
26 Ever try to wipe that off? I'm told glass cleaner cloths work nicely. I'm not sure of what they are called, but they're those little cloths you use to clean your glasses. Lens cleaners? The companies don't even know. Doesn't matter really, now, does it?
27 When I go to Raley's, or Safeway, the last thing I think about is purchasing glass cleaner cloths. The day I remember, I'll probably buy fifty.
28 I should stop writing this very second and put "glass cleaner cloths" in my iPhone notes.
29 I'll also put, "Remember iPhone notes" on it. That's a surefire way of getting everything I need. Don't get old.
30 Hold on. I'm seriously going to do that.
31 <does>
32 I used to be good at writing iPhone notes. Now it seems I pop fragments and shortcuts into them.
33 Here is an inside look at my iPhone notes for the past few weeks:
34 iPhone notes.
35 Jd
36 Pert shampoo.
Creamer.
37 Newborn Pampers
or Huggies.
Health foods.
Mom Apple.
38 Sinatra did Try a Little Tenderness.
Stacy Kent Close Your Eyes.
Great jaz. Great piano.
Stingray Swinging Standards.
They need Pamela Rose to represent the Wimminz!
Tyrell: It Had to Be You.
All so cooooool...pu...sha...
39 640I'm
40 Paper plates.
Plastic forks.
Coffee.
41 Those are my iPhone notes going back to October 14, misspellings and all. When I was younger, I was no good at taking notes, nor even at listening to my teachers' lectures. I was the worst note-taker in high school. I wouldn't put down anything worthwhile except daydreams. You don't get better at that, unless you really work at it. I haven't the incentive. Why would I?
42 Moving On, Part Two: No wonder we never have any food.
43 Those were all of the notes except for one, and that one had a password on it.
44 You should try that. You know, you should write your notes out as a poem, or as a jazz piece.
45 All so coooooool...pu...sha... Where in the world did that one come from?
46 Closet jazzman.
47 I'm working the keyboards today, that's for sure.
48 That entertained me. I want to turn all those notes into some sort of open-mic poetry thing. I want to wear sunglasses and look cool.
49 Explosive stuff, if you ask me.
50 I saw that thought-cloud that just formed in your mind.
51 You thought,"Nobody's asking you, ya arse!"
52 Go easy. I'm just trying to type my way to Friday.
53 I must have been conscious when I wrote the sooooooo...cool line, because there are seven "o" 's in the word "so." That's one for each day of the week, a DN staple, and yet one more thing inconsistent about me. The only thing consistent about me are the cringe benefits of reading this stuff.
54 One thing I do know: I'm consistently inconsistent.
55 I gottago. You'll excuse me, gentlemen. Your business is politics, mine is running a saloon.
56 Have a GREAT day.
57 See you again.
58 Peace.
