1-800-Mattress

doesn't know how to spell.
I was watching the news this morning in my sleepy stupor, and their commercial came on. Their cheesy jingle started to play, and the girl sang in the stupid jingle tune, "1-800-M-A-T-T-R-E-S." Um, hello. Why would I buy a mattress from a place that is not compliant with the english language. It it spelt correctly on the screen, but not in the jingle, and it bothered me so much that here I am writing about it. I'd rather buy my mattress from Sleepy's because in their commercials they jump on beds, and I enjoy a company that condones jumping on beds.

Random thoughts

Well... when am I not random?
I woke up early this morning which is shocking for a girl who typically attacks the snooze button atleast 18 times a morning.
I became immediately conscience, well Charis conscience anyhow. I got my coffee, sat in bed at 6 a.m. popped in a movie, glanced at my curtains and thought to myself, those would make a nice outfit...
Who the hell do I think I am Julie Fuckin Andrews? Then I had that stupid song from The Sound of music in my head ..."these are a few of my favorite things," ... Oh boy. This day is bound to be a long one.
That is all.

Woozifrost

Summer never came that year for the people of Woozifrost. No closets were changed over from turtlenecks to tank tops, no 4th of July fireworks were ooed and awed at, no vacations were planned, no sun beat down upon their heads. It poured from June until September. The rain was cold, and the people were physically and mentally damp. Wet, tired and dejected they lost hope of ever seeing the sun that particular summer, or maybe, ever again.

Toward the end of September, Martin Shubert, a city bus driver claimed he saw the sun, but he was mistaken. He had just been looking at the sky for too long and started seeing blobs of yellow. He was later admitted to the Woozifrost center of psychiatry for better evaluation.

Sarah Sparks, the city librarian had a premonition that the flooding indicated the genesis to the end of the world. Sarah used the word genesis, which normally connoted new, to describe the end of something, because history had shown her that the end of something always seemed to result in the beginning of something else.

To be continued…
