Tuesdays with Muerte

1. Bad Hair Day - Some days there just isn't a thing you can do with your hair. I'm sure we've all experienced this to some degree in the last 10 days; and we all have our own way of dealing with it. As for myself, I chose to do nothing about it. When I feel like this sheep, I embrace the chaos, then move past it. 2. Not Real. But seriously, how awesome would it be to have EVERYTHING taste a little bit like strawberries. Imagine: Hot Coco, Cold Cereal, Chicken Salad, the list goes on... 3. Real. and Sick. 4. Cool costume. A little bit morbid, but cool. The only materials you need to make this mousey creation is a couple of brown grocery bags, some fur from the fabric store, wrapping paper tubes, tin foil, some construction paper, scissors and glue! 5. Kids love to dance - It doesn't matter who their partner is. Now that I've been away from ballroom dance for almost 2 years, I feel like I can say, without prejudice, that my favorite form ...

I put the pie in the freezer for the night and took it out in the morning just before cooking it in the oven. I read the following instructions: I followed them to the letter. I even gave it two hours to cool. I put it on a cooking sheet for safer transport. I had my first suspicion of disa...

Last night I wasn't Special Ops as per usual; I was a rogue wizard! I did however work for an internationally renowned media mogul and then when I quit after only 3 weeks I traveled away with a band of no-good Chinese pirates. Here are some of the magic spells I could perform: 1. While I worked as a landscaper for the media mogul, I spent most of my time on a makeshift bridge that blocked six of the eight lanes of freeway that it crossed. With my magical powers I was able to shoot electric current at the oncoming traffic to control each vehicle and smoothly guide them through the two open lanes at 50 mph. 2. I created tiny whirlwinds that picked up the trash along the freeway that resulted in collecting them into piles for my fellow team mates to put into bags. 3. I used my mental abilities in my dismissal interview to get an extra $500 as a termination bonus. 4. As I escaped I ended up in an underground river passage. Pirates were close behind me.
