can't wait for the PTO!!!

I have no idea what the "PTO" is, and I don't know why anyone couldn't wait for it. I'm at the public library and it appears that a lot of people use the blogger. When I clicked in the Title Bar and typed the letter 'c,' an old title from some one else's blog appeared. Weird.

the C that I meant to type was for "Clear Lake Denny's and the Midnight Coffee Extravaganza: Two Nights Only." Clear Lake is a city about 40 miles West of Osage and they have the nearest 24 hr joint.... Denny's. I live for the 24 hr diners.

I rolled up to an all night diner
the sign said triple x but they were talkin' 'bout root beer
a man walks up, puts his arm around me
starts to share his information
i just sit there thinkin' 'bout nothin
lookin' at the thin air
breathing up the oxygen

Where was I? I get songs stuck in my head. I just wish I knew the words. Those were all jacked up. Anyway... where was I? YES! The Diner.

I've been home for two weeks or so now. Yeah. I have left town EVERY SINGLE DAY. I can't handle this much Osage any more. I have gotten used to bigger cities. (Mike, Eddie, you two will laugh at me, but Anchorage and Panama City are still big cities to me.) This small town atmosphere is great, but I start to drown.

There are two teen aged boys behind me. I'm eavesdropping. This is a summary of their conversation.
"When does your dad run again?"
"For sheriff?"
"Ya."
"Oh, well, he hasn't had anybody run against him, so..."
"He doesn't campaign?"
"He hasn't campaigned since he was first elected."
"Well, there haven't been any murders, so that's good for business."
"There haven't been any murders in Osage in 100 years."
"That's what they SAY, anyway."
"Yes. That's what THEY say."

Interesting, life here in Townsville. I'd blog more often, but it's very hard waking up before the library closes. I'm sure you all understand.

Peace and Love,
Mungo

Song of the day: Modest Mouse - "All Nite Diner"
