my brand new temporary rap name...

yesterday, a friend of mine said that her son had told her he wanted to spend his birthday at "Chucky Jesus."

cutest thing i'd heard in a long time! :)

and for a few hours, it made me want to change my rap name. i mean, it didn't take too long to come to the conclusion that i already had the coolest rap name in my back pocket, if, y'know, i ever chose to forego a career in the childcare industry to become a rapper. and, if, well, yeah, i could actually rap. it's good to be prepared for such things, i think, so, if either of those things happened, i would still like be called Pappa Squat. i'm pretty sure.

but, in the event that Jay Z should come by to the center to do some scouting and wanted me to be in his crew, BUT told me that his cousin's name was already, in fact, Pappa Squat (and, assuming he could provide the proper documentation showing me that this was, indeed, the truth), i think Chucky Jesus would be a stellar plan B.

so much so that i came up with a few lyrics on the way to work...
don't judge me...

"it's Chucky Jesus on the microphone
all you Pharisees better leave me alone
gonna walk on water with a slice of pizza
Mary Magdalene it's so nice to meet ya
turning this water into soda pop
'cause when i rock the party, the party don't stop, y'all..."

actually, i did have to stop at that point, because i started laughing out loud while walking to the train station. and people were beginning to stare. and, also, there's the issue of blasphemy, too, maybe, so...


the five things i fell in love with today...

1) that God has a good sense of humor!
2) i never got to have a birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese's, but was never scarred from it... probably.
3) we had a SNOW DAY!!!!!!! which means i've only worked one day this entire week!
4) nobody asked me to shovel anything today!
5) i was watching keith olberman tonite and he pointed out the controversy about olympic skier lindsey vonn's sport's illustrated cover. specifically, the proximity of the letters P and U to her, uhm, backside parts. you be the judge...




song of the day...
"big bottom" by spinal tap

movie of the day...
started a BRAND NEW MOVIE MARATHON on monday!!! am watching 25 best picture winners before the academy awards air (err?) on march 7th.

i began with 1929's "the broadway melody" --a musical which featured, among other things, the premise that women could have a career and a husband... but definitely not both simultaneously...

yeah, maybe not the best choice for that year... poor hank. and, poor queenie, for that matter.
