Ah, Fortune, you sly boots

So this morning ol' AT stayed out of work sick, and was doing a little housework around the house while the lovely and talented GoldenAppleCorp was doing the school thing.
So I mowed the yard and got all hot and sweaty, so I came in to cool off and take a shower. I decided to clean up the kitchen while I cooled off, and popped in some Johnny freakin Cash while I worked. So, I'm bagging the garbage when somebody knocks on the door. I answer it, shirtless, smelly, and with 21 minutes to go blaring, and theres our boy X from the Oak Ridge Utilities District looking for money. Let it hereby be know that, while awesome as the day is long, Atomictumor *can* be a slacker when it comes to paying the bills. Crap, I said, because I don't have checks to pay this man with. So I manage to talk him into letting me hustle down to the office and settle up the bill. Him, being nearly as awesome as the AT, was cool with it, as long as I don't mention his involvement.
So, long story short, I bust it down and pay the bill, and for an added bonus, I beered up the fridge.
So, the moral of the story is, its a damn good thing I stayed home from work. Or maybe its that I shouldn't be such a slack ass. Or, perhaps, that Johnny Cash can kick the crap out of bills when properly applied. Wait, I don't think thats it.
The End.

oh, I think jonny can slay the bills. we should try him out on tree hauling. He just might get my toyota to haul more tree, or beer at least.

Evidently I shouldn't have thanked fortune yet, because my windshield got cracked by one of those damn hickory nuts. Grrrr.

I bet a squirrel was f***ing around and threw that nut at your car. He said you were a slack for not getting your bills paid on time and spending money beering up your fridge instead of feeding your poor hungry kids.

I think somebodys a little bitter that they're not all beered up...
