Hope your Leap Year is going better than mine

[cornerofmadness]

A storm from hell woke me at 430AM (probably a spin off the deadly one) and I'm glad it did my sugar was down to 67. A few more points and I would never have woken up at all. I spend the next hour and a half getting it back up but by then it was time to go to work.

I get there to find out a friend/co-worker's father in law died at just 57. Too young. Way too you.

Then I saw Davy Jones died. RIP Mr. Jones. I have to admit I wasn't as huge as Monkee fan as many of my friends, especially evil_little_dog but I liked their music. It was often such fun and I was thinking of them today. We were talking about this today at work. Monkee Mania was at its highest the year I was born so I mostly saw it in rereuns and never really watched much. You want to know my first remembrance of Davy? THIS.

"Prodigal ~ Connor - Angel" (Watch on YouTube)

Freaking Scooby-Doo. If you want to know what fucked me up as a kid. Take a look at that drug induced nightmare. Not bad enough? We started talking about other things and ended up singing the lyrics to H.R. PufnStuf loudly in the secretary's office. How naive were parents in the 60-70's?? And censors for that matter.

THe refrain is H.R. Pufnstuf,
Who's your friend when things get rough?
H.R. Pufnstuf
Can't do a little cause he can't do enough. Yeah, nothing blatant there! Mom doesn't remember me watching this. I think the Hooka in the basement has something to do with it...

I exercised hard today, did okay then got asked out for beers with a friend who is going thru family shit. I got home and now my sugar is 300. So also went comatose from too low sugar and now I'm riding the upper limits of my cognitive abilities and ability to see. Special. Took some insulin and am sitting here half drooling on myself in a stupor.

And Soul patted my naked butt several times today while I was trying to get in the shower.

I remember Davy on Scooby Doo. Man, the art in that is so bad. It's worse than the Trek cartoon art.

We won't go into H. R. Pufenstuf. That was just wrong, regardless.

"Come and play with me, Billy,
come and play with me,
I will take you on a trip,
far across the sea..."

Though I thought Billy was very cute (and he's the kid who took Davy's place as the Artful Dodger when Davy got too old to play the part on Broadway).

It's horrible art. Looks like I drew it. Kids today get AtLAB and we had this and a slightly pedophilic, drug induced monster show and the fucking banana splits. shudders

I don't remember Billy as cute but that is interesting you never told me that Davy tidbit (well I knew about Artful Dodger)

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Well, today's kids also get that weird Adventure!Time art, too. Don't forget.

I'm full of useless Monkee trivia.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i'm not sure i've seen that

yes you are

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

well there's the nightmare fuel for tonight

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Isn't it...uh.

LOL Scooby Doo, but yes RIP Davy Jones. Heh at the LA area we have Antenna TV, a digital tv channel that airs classic shows and the show with the Monkees on it is shown on weekends. Only watched a couple of them, thought it was kinda fun.

It was fun from what I remember

I just saw the announcement of Davy Jones' passing. (He not only was on Scooby-Do but also made an appearance on Spongebob Squarepants.)

"And Soul patted my naked butt several times today while I was trying to get in the shower."
LOL. ...Sadly, that is more action than I've had so I shouldn't laugh.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I didn't know about Spongebob. I'll have to tell my friends

yeah it's more action than I've seen in a while too

Soul, you are a little freak.

I feel so BLECH today. I don't know what it was but I had trouble getting to sleep to the point that I turned on the tv after half an hour of twitching and rolling around.

I woke up again later to turn it off and collapse and right now I'm cranky.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Soul is

I had similar problems last night. It was such a shallow sleep that I kept waking up from

I've never been a huge fan of Scooby-Doo. Not quite my generation and not quite my culture (and translation generally fucks up all the jokes). Still, childhood icon passing away is always a sad thing.

Other than that, I just wanted to say Yay! to your groping!cat :D

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I did love Scooby Doo (I'm just very aware of how bad it was) but yes, jokes tend not to translate well

stoopid kittie.

Crap, you have a blood-sugar yoyo. :-(

Cats are little weirdos, aren't they?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I do and it blows
