Haiku Thursday

January 16, 2009

I need to write a
grumpy haiku to appease
dear @mariancall

Big giant headache.
Aspirin or ibuprofen?
A mocha instead?

Girl scout order form
in the office breakroom, Steve
sure he needs a fix.

99%
of this staff meeting
not apply to me.

Juneau Airport lounge,
carded while waiting for the
gate to be opened.

They were fun! Haiku
Thursday may be here to stay
if I don't forget.

Expensive jeans and
twenty-seven bobby pins
brought pat-down and wand.

No confiscation
but they did wonder aloud
the reason for them.

Gone back to the gate,
there's some maintenance problem
that isn't a bird.

Spotty wifi on
the plane. I'd like to go home
now before I cry.

Changing planes. I don't
want to be stuck in Juneau
tonight. I want my bed.

Took out my contacts.
Won't be home 'til 12.
Feel the grumps coming.

Boarding a new plane.
Thanks for Twitter well wishes.
Can't wait to be home.

So I like this tiny coffee mug, but the name reminds me of a menstrual cup. That might be a dealbreaker. http://t.co/CI50TkhI 2 hours ago
