Friday Errands & Other Stuff

I took the day off, the last of my "use or lose" vacation time from 2015. I used the day to write off a few of my usual birthday time errands, like paying the property taxes on my car, getting new car tags, etc.

I paid my taxes with one of my "Grizzly" checks, which got a few odd looks from the assistant clerk. It's not every day a check comes to her office with the image of a hairy-chested, bearded superhero on them. After I left, I'm sure she probably said something to other clerks.

So now I have a three-day weekend and no distinct plans, which is fine. That head cold of mine is still hanging on, with lingering congestion, making mornings a bit gross. So the big idea this weekend is probably getting some rest.

My dreams have been a bit odd lately too. I'm not sure if the medication is to blame or not. Last night's dream had me being critiqued by old college friends after I gave a speech or something. The biggest negative was my apparent lisping, which they stated made me sound incredibly gay. I don't have a lisp in real life, so this didn't make sense to me, but the feeling was a bit unnerving, being judged by old college buddies.

Anyway, it's Friday and I'm off work, which makes me happy.

I feel a nap coming on. :)

I plan to take many naps this week myself.

I'm not ashamed to say I'm a napwhore.

Have you seen the movie Do I Sound Gay? It's a documentary about "gay voice" and stereotypes. Your subconscious may be interested!

I may have to look into that. It was an odd dream for sure.

You're a braver man than I am using those cheques. Go you.

Heh! Most of the time I just mail them out, never seeing the reaction of the person cashing them. I have had them for about a year now and this is the first time I've had to use them in public, so it's fun.

And I draw the comic book, which is something I'd tell people if they ever asked about the design.

I guess I didn't realize you could use your own artwork for checks. I'd have loved to have seen the clerk's expression!
