For many of us, today is the return to routine after a Holiday weekend. I say routine, which could be another way of saying "normal", but we know all too well that a day like this is far from normal. It's like Monday on steroids. How do you cope?
Here are a few things I have done today to beat the doldrums and show those around me that "Crazy doesn't take days off".
1) I rolled up to the office with the radio blaring Sinatra and did my best Ace Ventura parking job. A few cars sustained some minor damage. No biggee.
2) I cellophaned the toilet seat. That was not wise however. I forgot and wound up being the first to use it. But you can see how it might have brightened my day.
3) I started the warehouse on fire. Well, not actually the warehouse, just some old boxes and paint cans. Ha Ha. (BOOM!)
4) I chewed a whole pack of Hubba Bubba at once while talking on the phone.
5) I set a badger loose in the office and locked the doors. Don't worry, no rabies.
6) I wasted 10 minutes of my bosses time typing this.
What have you done today?

Messin' with the Normals
A few of us local St. Louis Crazies are planning to get together and make the trip to the headquarters of the Normals. We're going to T.P. the place. It'll be fun. I hear security is lax (portly).
It's less than a three hour drive, especially with one of our type at the wheel. We'll meet at the East Stadium Parking Garage, top level, at 7:00pm tonight. Depending on how many show up, we'll car pool as necessary. That will put us there around 10:00pm. Coincidentally, the Normal's bedtime. Obviously they will have long since gone home for the night. We just have to outrun that slightly overweight guard (although a little birdie told me he's one of us).
I'll stop by Wal-mart on the way and grab a few cases of cheap toilet paper. It'll be just like old times (last weekend). If nothing exciting happens, we'll call the cops on ourselves when we get the place about half way covered.

Crazies vs. Normals Annual Softball Game
This Year's annual softball competition against our arch-enemies will be held on June 7th at that place at the corner of those two streets. The game starts at 3:00pm. I need all the Crazies there by noon to get our game-plan together.
If you remember, last year we did not win. In fact, we got our asses handed to us. However, we had more fun and less injuries than the Normals. I have a vivid memory of Stella freaking out on that little third-basemen. He never saw it coming. I heard his ribs have healed and the mis-alignment of his nose is barely noticeable.
This year, I am confident we will beat them, even if we don't win.
