I think you're crazy/I think you're crazy/I think you're crazy/like me

I'm actually awake before I have to go to work. Though honestly, I'm going in two hours later than normal. Because this is supposed to be my day off. That's right. This. My day off. Is a day where. . .

But enough of that. What am I currently trying to do? Invent my own character set. But why? No reason. I've got nothing better to do. Actually, I guess technically, I do, but well, I tend to waste time on things that honestly, aren't even worth wasting time on. Yeah, that's right. Time wasting is what I do. Speaking of that, here's a fun time wasting quiz.


You Have A Type B+ Personality

You're a pro at going with the flow
You love to kick back and take in everything life has to offer
A total joy to be around, people crave your stability.

While you're totally laid back, you can have bouts of hyperactivity.
Get into a project you love, and you won't stop until it's done
You're passionate - just selective about your passions

My Favorite Things
1) Warm woolen mittens
2) Bright copper kettles
3) Brown paper packages tied up with string


The laborers are complaining again. Last time, we complained about the lack of a fan, this time, we complain because we work in hot conditions for a solid hour with no water.

No water? We're not even allowed to go take a water break. If you ask a manager for water, you might get told to hurry up so you can finish the sort and then you can drink water till you're blue in the face.

We're angry. I'll probably get sued for posting this and slandering the company name, or some such nonsense. I'm delirious from lack of hydration. I don't know what I'm saying.

I'd be more enraged if it didn't pay so well

I'm a jerk some of the time, an idiot most of the time, and exactly who I should be none of the time.

My car is still in the shop, and I'm betting its got another week of being fixed, which is fine by me. I'm still rocking the convert, as my sister and I like to call it, and let me say, I'm gonna be kind of sad to see it go. But not that sad. I can't wait to get me gas guzzling hard to control accident mobile back and burn a few tires off.

You Are Duck

Exotic and unusual, you are a bit of a rare bird - literally.
You're known for being soft and succulent, though at times you can be a bit greasy.

Lord I feel like its raining all over the world/Raining, raining, raining raining raining/all over the world

Rain is only depressing if your not outside in it. If I'm inside and its raining, I tend to feel a little down, and like I need to go to sleep. But when I'm outside, and I'm delivering and going places, or even when I was a crossing guard and it would be storming outside while I directed traffic, I always enjoyed it. I had a rain coat, and I wasn't getting soaked inside out, so it was fun.

Think about it. The famous Gene Kelly song and dance routine from Singing in the Rain, ever do that in the rain? That's fun! Of course, I'm sure that if anyone asked Gene about having to shoot that while being drenched with water on a sound stage in Southern California, he'd probably tell you that was one of the worse days of his acting career. No one wants to be cold and soaking wet for three to four hours a day. Its not exactly what I'd call a good time. But for that thirty minutes when things get a little torrential, and I'm dashing in and out of my truck making deliveries, for that thirty minutes, I guess I kinda feel like a kid again. Albeit a big kid, but still a kid. And that's worth a little pneumonia in my book.

You have a book?

Again?!

That's right boys and girls. Javann's long and sordid love affair with insurance agents and SR-13's has struck again. I had another accident. Good news, bad news. Good news, it wasn't my fault. Bad news, it wasn't my fault. Its frustrating because I know I could've done a much better job destroying my own car, but fortunately, a good sized ford Expedition went medieval on my car. Am I hurt? I was going to say only my feelings, but after so many accidents, even those go numb.

How do I keep surviving these things? More importantly how do I keep getting into them? If I have some sort of special car-crash-survival-skill set that I don't know about, I'd gladly trade it for the special don't-crash-the-car-skill set that surely must exist. Its getting to the point that as soon as I touch a car, its going to experience a sharp increase in insurance premiums, and steeper dive in overall value.

I remember asking exactly who hates me so much that I've had six more accidents than the normal person. This at a time when I was trying so hard to not have an accident, at least before I turn 25. I drive for a living, and I almost log over six hundred miles a week in the FedEx truck alone, yet, I've not managed to learn how to safely navigate our fine highway system here in Alabama.

I am the master of disaster.
