OH BOY, OH BOY

Exceptions verses excitement. They hardly seem like things that go together. However for me they are partners.

See sometimes you need to have the exceptions in order to have the excitement part. That is so necessary when dealing with some clown with no sense of humor.

Like those who work on holidays. I'm talking about people who do so on purpose and have a choice not too. Yeah, the ones you would not vote for as life of the party.

And the one thing I dread is when Mr. or Ms. Personality ends up in charge. Because you can be sure they will not grant a single moment of joy to go with the chore.

Which is when I have to develop my game plan of buts. Yeah, I have a game plan for that. I have to with some of the people I deal with that are royalty in terms of spreading boredom and dull.

Naturally, these joyful people will never understand the need for smiles. So the option is to appeal to their practical side by giving them a chore to keep them busy.

Then while they are distracted and not able to notice your lazy butt doing nothing, you order a pizza and beer to have delivered where they won't notice. Making sure of course that they do not in any way find out.

The big condition to that is obviously that you do not encounter them later with pizza breath. That totally destroys the illusion. Plus they might expect some too.

Now if you work it out good enough, then you can have your pizza and eat it too. Meanwhile the anal retentive types get their jollies thinking everyone is as bored at they are.

I figure the key is here is using the buts to make everyone have their own version of excitement. It is just a matter of appreciating how for some people they idea of excitement only works if they are miserable.

All I do is make sure they can get so thrilled by the buts that they think they have really won. And as long as they can hold onto that illusion then they are happy.

In the meantime, the rest of us will have a true pursuit of happiness and all the joys they provide. I do find it interesting that the Constitution mentions the pursuit of happiness. No where does it mention the pursuit of dull.

I think that was obvious that our illustrious founding fathers enjoyed having a good time as much as the next person. Which is why they had to send a big butt to the buttheads in England who wanted to ruin the party.

So we invited them to a party in Boston. Only we were the only ones dancing.
