My Space Easter

Rate this Entry
Well Ruth made it back fine and was only five minutes late to work--3:30 pm. Now that's dedication to a friend. Leave work at 6 pm, driver two and ahalf hours, attend Easter services and drive back and do a shift. She's a go-getter when she really wants something. I secretly wish she wanted her husband to finish his Avengers collection sooner then he's projected but it's still always about me.

From the majority of comments on the last entry there will be no more startling Enquirer type headlines though Andave Ya heart attack line hits a little too close to home if my doctor is to be believed. A lesson learned.

Last night Cheyenne was watched. An old actor Regis Toomey was in it. He was a character actor who appeared all over the place in the 50s and early 60s. I remember him most for appearing in Burke's Law.

We arose, read Spurgeon, a sermon on the the Lord Christ declaring "I thirst" from the cross. Went to work at 2 pm and got loose at 10.

An incident occured that has me bemused if anything. Around three o'clock a certain female dispatcher from a station called partner John who was monitoring her station with a request that I call her.

No particular reason to and none not too. The upshot was she wanted to chit chat and wanted to know what I looked like. I thought she had already seen me and I her so I'm mixing her up with someone else.

I'm slightly confused by an interest displayed in me that I only wish Logos had. She invites and gives me her My Space identifier.

My very first invite.

To be kind I didn't want it. I still have no idea why this sudden interest in my company. My only experience with My Space was watching the ex-daughter-in-law complain about son James on Ruth's My Space page. Yes she has one. I have never looked at it. That's her domain.

Anyhow MySpace is blocked at AAA (which I told said dispatcher) and when I checked it at home I didn't know what to do with it. Sweets America and Kiz Paws would have loved it--the cover page has endless pictures of a Doberman on it. Told said dispatcher I would have Ruth help me with it.

Ruth comes home and I tell her Litnet chewed on me big time for the alarming headline to which she smiled. I told her right off about My Space lady and she said I had to join or sign up or something. Sigh.

Not really sure I want this kind of involvement THIS close to home. John at work just stared at me. Bob confessed a dispatcher from another station wanted to get together for coffee. We shake our heads in dismay. Attention where we don't look for it and don't desire it. Much safer here at Litnet (for all the openess) who's really going to track you down anyway?

Most likely just wants a friend. THAT I can always do.

    Ah B-Mental I read your comment to Ruth about the undergarment dancing and she about choked on her hamburger laughing at the thought. Haven't heard her laugh so delightedly in a long time. I owe you one buddy.

    Doberman, eh? I love all dogs, so you sure got my number all righty! As for the attentions of the fellow employee, there is no shortage to the adventures in your life, that is for sure. And I wondered really, does Rich dance like a bull in a china shop? No, I think he is kidding around. Again.... Take care and I am glad that Ruth made it home ok. Hope her visit was a fun one. Cheers to you both, Kizzo

    I'm forever getting invites for MySpace and other various things from people I don't even know, and my friends that KNOW I don't like MySpace! Why do they keep inviting me when they know there's NO WAY I'll accept?! I agree, it's great here at LitNet, theres no expectations like on MySpace, its just a nice place to hang out and write about things and it feels a lot safer than a lot of the other internet forums and sites

    Rich, it sounds a little fresh to me. What do you look like and come visit me at myspace. I don't know but I think it sounds fresh! maybe she read your blog and knew the wife was a way and you'd be dancing half naked.

    I couldnt do My Space. I have a Bebo Page, that i never go on to, and a Facebook page which i only have because of a special group of people from WellsAngels, and all we do is send each other cakes and roses and hugs. Dont really chat. But thats nice all the same.
