geographical chameleon

an area you haven't been to in a very, very, long time. you remember it one way, but by the time you get back the 'developers' have closed in, and though the 'lay of the land' is pretty much the same, new buildings/architecture (bizarrechitecture? (-urban dict.word!) have 'gone up' and you no longer recognize the place.

went back to pooptown after fifteen years and it had become a geographical chameleon!

eye

sleep, rest, bedtime

from the slang; "shut-eye" ! eye just seems more "user friendly" and easier to say somehow. people can often (slowly) actually figure out it means sleep! (without an explanation)

i've got (the) insomnia, and almost NEVER get any eye !
(the) cannabis has helped with my TERRIBLE problem getting eye !
i-yi-yi-yi !! ANOTHER night with NO eye !!

wearing it

get fat -booting (eating) lots of high fat foods and imaging them turning straight to fat and taking up shop ('residence') on and around ones' body parts.

that coconut cream pie is better than sex!, but i'm going to end up wearing it!

i love me some pie! (pizza) but i'll just end up wearing it!!

beat the crack

arising well BEFORE dawn!!

NOT a sado-masochistic term alluding to abuse of 'prime parts'
but a reference to being 'awake and vertical' LONG BEFORE the first glint of light appears at the horizon!!

i had to beat the crack to do electrical work, which resulted in me "sleeping in" till 6:30A on week-ends!!

had to beat the crack to catch that flight!!

beating the crack is kind of a criminal situation!!
