Motivation
I had a meeting tonight. It was boring. I got another rejection letter. I guess it isn't so much rejection as just another testament as to how bad the previous administration fucked up the country especially the education system and now the kids have to suffer. I think I am going to have to start thinking of being a gigolo or making "movies" or "donations".
I had a bat in my house this evening. At around 8:30 I heard some thuds coming from the upstairs and then my cats running around. I just figured they were chasing each other. I came on here and was typing away and then I hear my cats running around and hissing and growling so I go to check it out and there is the flying rat. My adrenaline was pumping but I have this phobia of flying creatures. The thing started swooping at me and the cats so I picked them up and locked them in the upstairs portion of the house. I grab a mop and started playing baseball with the bat. Slap...slap...slap...it goes to the floor. I smoosh it but not hard enough. Those things have high pitched screams. I then go into hockey mode and wrist shot it onto my back porch. I quick close the door as the bat flies right into the glass on the door. I laugh and then it flies back and hits the glass. It's frantically flying around on my back porch and I can hear its screams through the door. I think I hurt it. It gets tangled in the chain on my screen door. I laugh and take my mop, which I just used to mop my bathroom, and I swat it against the screen door. The bat starts screaming. "FUCK YOU BAT! TAKE MY MOP! LOVE MY MOP! I JUST USED THIS TO CLEAN MY BATHROOM" (yes I said that to the bat as I pressed and it screamed. Also I have to admit I'm not the best aimer so that explains what I said next) "HOW DO I TASTE? YOU LIKE THAT? I'M THE MAN!" I then open the door and flick it outside as I hear it screeching as it flew into the night sky. I hope that bat tells the rest of the bats never to mess with me. I shut the door, turn off all the lights, the adrenaline rush goes away and then my asthma kicks in and I collapse. Thankfully I have inhalers in every room of the house. I inhale and breathe and then my cats curl up next to me. I am alive so I blog. What's next? Oh yeah, your weekly dose of motivation:
Well I hope I motivated you.
I think it's time for a beer or maybe lake swimming under the moon.

hahaha...orrrr this is going to unfold in another entry called "return of the bats" where the bat you whacked goes off and tells his friends and family you beat him and they all come back for retribution
i like bats but i got to admit i wouldn't want one in the house and i'd probably lock the cats in the room with the bat and hope it took care of it for me. corse my luck the bat would have rabies and then the cats would and then i would for playing with the cats after the bat was finished.
I would have FREAKED OUT. Glad you got it out.
That Moms poster, whoa tough love, I like it.
LOL!! Awesome bat story! =D "TAKE MY MOP! LOVE MY MOP! I JUST USED THIS TO CLEAN MY BATHROOM" -- HAHA!!
"I am alive so I blog." LOL!! Terrific ending to a great story.
Wow, I think I'd freak out, if I had to fight a bat! lol
I'm sorry that you got no positive feedback for a job. You really need to pack your bags!
Have you ever thought of private teaching? Who needs a school building for a teaching job?!
I LOVE the "terrific moms" one...I think a lot of the kids in my agency could really use a parent like that.
Groping grandpa... muahahahah!!!
The bridge one is awesome.
Happy you got it out? Good pictures. Where do you find them???
Ill have to call you Adam West now
Ugh, hate that rejection. You handled the bat better than me, I'm pretty sure I'd be throwing milk on it or something!
I love motivation! I always look forward to these entries. Lol. My favorites are terrific moms and the gum one!
Nice job again . . . sorry you're not getting any bites . . . it's tough everywhere, but that probably won't make you feel any better. Just don't give up . . . you're great and enthusiastic and I know you're going to find it. Hang in there, 'K?
The one on paranoia was awesome!
Gigolo... you?!?!
A bat...yikes!
I hope you opted for lake swimming
That's what I would have done.
@HushNowLuv -
That is what I am worried about. I also have been highly critical of the Twilight series so maybe it was a vampire bat.
@NightlyDreams -
Yeah bats carry rabies and it is a high number that do. I was worried that it did get to my cats and the bites are hard to detect so I have been inspecting them closely.
@storyslut -
Yeah I wish more parents were like that and then maybe we wouldn't have overcrowded prisons.
@mZdejavuZ -
I say weird things when under pressure. It was worse when I played football. I remember one game declining nouns in Latin while on the line.
@nattata -
I am looking into private teaching as well as jobs in other countries. I had a friend in college spend a summer in Germany as a tutor/nanny and I have thought about that but I think most people see nannies as being ladies. Oh and my state is expanding it's online school for high school and I am trying to get into that program so I can teach online.
@ChocolatMenier -
I wonder if more moms were like that if the prisons would still be overcrowded.
@RestlessButterfly -
Oh that one is so funny because I have seen similar things.
@SladeTheGreyFox -
I'd love to know where that bridge is located
@faustuosa -
Yeah, I hate flying creatures so I was so thankful I got it out. I find these all over the internet. Just look up demotivational posters.
@Paul_Partisan -
Oh please do...although don't expect me to wear the tights.
@TiRocKiinPiinK -
I don't know if I should call it rejection or just schools having their budgets made after they post jobs. It's so sad that they do that. the gum one too me awhile to get.
@jacksoncroons -
Thank you! They keep saying things are getting better but it just doesn't look that way but I think Batman said it best: "Things are darkest before the dawn."
@kachino -
I hear that bridge is located near LOL Street and ROFL Avenue.
@RestlessButterfly -
No...I couldn't do that job. I'd probably be fired if I ever was hired.
@SunnyMitsu -
I did go swimming for a while but a young couple showed up sans clothes so I thought I better not stay.
@godfatherofgreenbay -
Oh man that would be awesome!
@godfatherofgreenbay -
your cats not have rabies shots?
@NightlyDreams -
Yes they do but it is still bothersome.
@godfatherofgreenbay -
You should think about making a post about weird things you say under pressure. =P
