219th Temporal Tuesday - 30 September

@mrrustymonkey: * wonders if @Wendell_Howe is around for #TemporalTues ? He needs to borrow that time machine today. * :)

@mrrustymonkey: * late last night, he was up checking his emails & read a bit of unhappy news. wonders what to do #TemporalTues ??? *

@mrrustymonkey: * a long ago friend is hurting - in need of prayers & kind words & #TemporalTues remembrances from an easier time *

@mrrustymonkey: * so he scurries up to the attic & digs around in an old #TemporalTues trunk, in search of something from his college days *

@mrrustymonkey: * he sits down in a discarded chair, next to a trunk of old photos & record albums. this is his seat on the #TemporalTues time machine *

@mrrustymonkey: Today on this #TemporalTues there's a problem to solve, but it's an easy fix ... if we go back to 1986. ;)

@mrrustymonkey: There we are #TemporalTues, a group of silly college friends. The stress of final exams is how it begins...

@mrrustymonkey: Someone "cracks" #TemporalTues & just can't take it anymore! :) So we'll gather the whole 3rd floor... for a trip to a special store!

@mrrustymonkey: * puts the #TemporalTues convertible top down on his triple white ( Wolfsburg edition no less! ) Volkswagon Cabriolet *

@mrrustymonkey: * but too many try to hop in #TemporalTues. some are sitting dangerously above the back seat, so they have to stay behind *

@mrrustymonkey: * the lucky ones speed off... beyond the gates of the #TemporalTues school... out into the real world of "town" *

@mrrustymonkey: #TemporalTues, our store is a unique retail therapy. You see, our favorite store mostly sells candy!!! ;)

@mrrustymonkey: * his eye sparkle, as he snatches a #TemporalTues paper bag & begins filling it to the brim with treasure! *

@mrrustymonkey: #TemporalTues, we grab Blow Pops & Lemon Heads & Big League Chew... Smarties & Airheads & even Dum Dums too!

@mrrustymonkey: Gobstoppers, Reeses Pieces, Tart n Tiny #TemporalTues Nerds! Ring pops, Lemon drops & chewy, gooey Gummi Worms!

@mrrustymonkey: #TemporalTues Zooks, Wacky Wafers, Bar None & Gatorgum... Candilicious, Bubbilicious, Hubba Bubba, BubbleYum! :)

@mrrustymonkey: It's sugar... #TemporalTues sugar that helps us smile & stay up late. But it's our break, spent together, that was really really great!

@mrrustymonkey: A time of bonding #TemporalTues, when we were tired to the very core. Just a sweet & simple trip to a candy store.

@mrrustymonkey: * goes onto Facebook & posts a #TemporalTues photo of 3 friends from long ago *

@mrrustymonkey: * #TemporalTues, "Someone is in need of a mid 80's, big frizzy hair :). Just remember my funny dance & trips to the candy store."

@mrrustymonkey: * he carefully holds his old #TemporalTues record album & ( in his mind @ least ) puts some quarters in a jukebox @ Schroeder's & :) *

@mrrustymonkey: Oh #TemporalTues time machine, as we stay up late, it's time to sing...(link)

218thTemporal Tuesday - 16 September

@mrrustymonkey: *a car pulls into the driveway of a 1950's #TemporalTues house, located in the idyllic "Mr. Rogers" style neighborhood of Summerville Park*

@mrrustymonkey: *a monkey doll screams with excitement! he skips down the concrete steps, as the door to the #TemporalTues screened porch slams behind him*

@mrrustymonkey: *he didn't even take the time to look @ the #TemporalTues clock. he doesn't understand clocks anyway, but he knows that it's exactly 5:15pm*

@mrrustymonkey: * he runs just as fast as he can & sits down on the last, round sidewalk paver to wait. this is his seat on the #TemporalTues time machine *

@mrrustymonkey: Today on this #TemporalTues you'll say, "Take my hand & let's run!" Oh boy, this is our kind of fun! It's 1971.

@mrrustymonkey: Late afternoon #TemporalTues - it's my favorite, I'd say! It's that special time of day when just you & I play.

@mrrustymonkey: This is "our" game #TemporalTues, where you help me run fast! I just wish I could make this scene last & last!

@mrrustymonkey: It begins #TemporalTues as you pull into the drive. Then suddenly my world comes completely alive!

@mrrustymonkey: #TemporalTues, you'll be "end of work" tired ( & to the 100th degree! ) yet somehow you'll find extra energy...

@mrrustymonkey:... to make my day #TemporalTues completely complete! My world sparkles with fun, yet nothing can compete...

@mrrustymonkey:...with this time #TemporalTues, when I am small & you are tall ... & we run & we run... hand in hand & all.

@mrrustymonkey: * screams as he is lifted up by the strong #TemporalTues hand about to carry him, @ lightning speed, running...running down the sidewalk! *

@mrrustymonkey: * he lifts off @ the driveway & doesn't touch down again until they reach the #TemporalTues screened porch @ the end of the house *

@mrrustymonkey: #TemporalTues Then I'll say, "Oh daddy, let's hurry up & do that again!" We'll run back to the car & once more we'll begin.

@mrrustymonkey: * closes his eyes & skips ahead over four #TemporalTues decades into the present day of now *

@mrrustymonkey: That's what it's about #TemporalTues... a hand that helps me to fly - consistent & loving & never wondering why.

@mrrustymonkey: And so it goes #TemporalTues, now that hand holds a phone. You see... when I'm talking to you I am never alone. :)

@mrrustymonkey: Your advise #TemporalTues is consistently strong. As long as you're here, nothing can go wrong!

@mrrustymonkey: *he talks to his daddy/grandaddy in little #TemporalTues squeaks - the kind that only old & rusty monkey dolls make when their heads bobble*

@mrrustymonkey: * his little glass eyeballs glisten in the late afternoon light from yet another precious #TemporalTues *

@mrrustymonkey: Now I must thank you #TemporalTues for this pleasant rewind. A little rhyme & a song.... it always helps clear my mind. ;)

@mrrustymonkey: Oh #TemporalTues time machine, I'll put my hand in your hand as we run & sing ... (song)

215th Temporal Tuesday - 20 May

@mrrustymonkey: * the monkey doll hears loud noises coming from somewhere outside, so he opens the door to his linen press room on #TemporalTues. *

@mrrustymonkey: * he quickly determines that it's just the #TemporalTues tent cleanup crew, picking up the remnants of yet another celebration *

@mrrustymonkey: * he turns up the volume on his #TemporalTues tv & clicks around to find his favorite old movie channel *

@mrrustymonkey: * then, he settles into one of the pillows on his parent’s big bed. This is his seat on the #TemporalTues time machine. *

@mrrustymonkey: Today on this #TemporalTues, there's a wedding event & it's really quite nice. But sometimes... I tire of sparklers & rice.

@mrrustymonkey: You see #TemporalTues, the tent rental trucks drive all over my yard! Watching their abuse is incredibly hard.

@mrrustymonkey: #TemporalTues, the money's never enough. I wish there was some other way, to keep this old house & be able to stay.

@mrrustymonkey: #TemporalTues, the caterers always steal spoons & they leave trash behind. We loose precious days off, our only chance to unwind.

@mrrustymonkey: And these bridesmaids #TemporalTues, with their spiked leather heels. My poor heart of pine floors...they are a pretty big deal.

@mrrustymonkey: Lock the display cases #TemporalTues! Hide the heirloom pieces! Remind me to bring them back out when this event finally ceases.

@mrrustymonkey: * paces back & forth along the #TemporalTues mezzanine, occasionally peeking out the window to see what's going on out front *

@mrrustymonkey: * notices that way down beyond the #TemporalTues fence, there is a rather mean looking woman standing on her front porch, hands on hips. *

@mrrustymonkey: #TemporalTues, now who is that crazy, scowling old witch? Oh, it's just our neighbor down the street who continues to _itch!

@mrrustymonkey: Why did she build here #TemporalTues, near a commercially zoned home? She should creep on back North or just leave us alone!

@mrrustymonkey: If I had teeth #TemporalTues, she'd be bite #1! I'd run wild up that street & I'd have some REAL fun! ;)

@mrrustymonkey: Just imagine #TemporalTues a wild, crazed chimpanzee... run amok in this gated community! ;-)

@mrrustymonkey: * jumps up & down & lets out his loudest squeak, just for #TemporalTues. *

@mrrustymonkey: * then, he checks his own angry #TemporalTues attitude, remembering all those answers to "why" - answers that span 2 decades! *

@mrrustymonkey: We have a museum now #TemporalTues. It's a museum of our dreams. Those tourists like it too, so it seems. :)

@mrrustymonkey: So please forgive me #TemporalTues. It is once more off my chest. Besides, this event's almost over. Let's enjoy the rest.

@mrrustymonkey: #TemporalTues, "This house is too... can't nothing bring me down." @mrrustymonkey: Oh #TemporalTues time machine, & the band still plays on... "Because I'm happy" to sing (link)

@mrrustymonkey: * wraps up in his fuzzy, blue twitterverse blanket & slips off into an almost #TemporalTues sort of dream state, because he's happy *

@mrrustymonkey: Thanks @chalkybear13. I do get stressed sometimes. Please ignore. #TemporalTues & the good Dr. @Wendell_Howe help me work it all out. :)
