I had a migraine today. It sucked.
It also affected my stomach. It's hard to explain.
The monster part? ah well. it just looked good in the title.
I'm not sure it's finished with me yet :-/
My toes, they are freezing.
The floor, it is so cold.
If I was offered some cheap tickets to the tropics...
I'd totally be sold.
I'd pack some bags
Call in sick, for a quite a while
call a cab to take me to the airport
and rush my ass through turnstiles.
Empty my pockets.
keep the change kind x-ray tech.
Throw my bags on the conveyor
and get a quick fondle while they do their checks.
Hop on through the airplane door
and stow my bag away.
Look out once more at this arctic realm
anticipating to leave this hell frozen over today.
Brrr...!
Show us your job.
Yes let's drag 8 hours of that into the rest of my life. No.
I can't believe Monday's almost here. Another boring week is about to begin. Despite not wanting to get crazy calls and get more duties hurled at me, I dislike the boredom. The boredom of answering the same questions everyday. The boredom when I catch things up and have nothing to do. The boring meetings where I just want to daydream or laugh at some of the things that go on. It won't all be boring, it won't all be bad, but it will all be 'Monday'.
I got to do some nice things. I got to take my niece and nephew to see Cloverfield. I got to get somethings done and I got to relax a little. I got some sweet new speakers for my computer. I hooked my sister up with some and gave my old speakers (which weren't bad at all) to my other sister. My sister and I went out to an "all you can eat" indian buffet and I hurt myself from helping myself to all the food I could eat. I think was as much the mixture of food as quantity. My sister and I went to the mall after and she finally got the hint I wasn't kidding about not feeling good when I doubled over and groaned "ohmygodmySTOMACH!" in public. The food was great, I'd do it again in the future, but I'll have to pay closer attention to what I'm eating. I had some dairy heavy dishes and my body once again illustrated how intolerant it is to lactose. Mental note: bring Lactaid!
So... Since Monday is almost here... I'm going to try to get over it already. It will happen. It will end. I will live. Unless something terrible happens. Then I be dead and the thought of being bored is much more palatable than that. Woohoo. Dead:0 Boredom: 1
Audio: Share a song with powerful lyrics.
If you're fortunate enough not to have any "dirt" in your life, you might not get this song. Dirt being issues, our past, things we escaped, things we are still trying to escape, what we survived... All this stuff that is really hard to think about, almost excruciating. I would like to think I've gotten past all that.
Maybe tomorrow TPTB will let me upload some more.
Sis: Syracuse lost today.
me: so what?
sis: it'd just be nice if something nice happened today.
me: Well, I'm sure a lot of nice things did happen today. I had a nice day!
sis: oh yeah, someone got shot and is in critical...
me: and since when does our local news cover anything NICE happening? Or any such effort event that has anything to do with the betterment of society? It's stupid. It's empty. Win, Lose, my life is no different either way!
I am the only person in my family that could give a squat about sports. Any kind. Win, lose, tie, I don't care. It doesn't break my spirit. It doesn't leave me hopeless. Sometimes I might go to a game if offered tickets. I know what's going on and I cheer but it's so fucking unimportant to me that it disgusts me when people tell me that their day is ruined because someone dropped a ball and expect me to give a crap about it. If I have had any motto or driving desire in any sport its to do my best, challenge myself, and have fun. I invest myself in our society, not our sports. Sorry!
5 shots of vodka poured in a stirrer over ice.
Olive juice (maybe less than a shot, 3/4 of a shot?)
A dash of triple sec.
5 Queen pimento olives.
--------------->Stir ------->pour into martini glass.
--(o)--(o)--(o)--(o)--(o)--- Skewer olives on a Shish kebab stick and set on glass.
Enjoy in moderation or you'll hurt yourself sparky.
Which one of your ancestors would you most like to talk to?

My father died over 3 years ago and I miss him very much. I miss his voice. I miss his stories. I miss the things he did that drove me crazy... No one annoys me like that and they never will. Last year, I thought of him as I fell asleep and had a dream where his brothers, himself and I were in a bar. I recognized my uncle Larry and there was another guy my uncle was talking to and he had a nasty look on his face that he'd cast at me whenever he caught me looking at him. My father and I were talking and I was really preoccupied with the guy who was giving the dirty look and I looked at my father and said "dad, who the hell is that guy over there by Uncle Larry? His eyes widened and he said "that's your other uncle Harold". I said "What the hell is his problem?" I asked. My father said "That's just the way he is... Stay away from him!" And after we finished our beers we all faded away. Now I've had conversations about Uncle Harold and how nasty he was to his own sons... Maybe that was just a reflection within the dream? But I find myself wondering about my father's side and how things were from generation to generation. We men always stern and intimidating menacing? Maybe! My father was a "boys don't cry", "rock is satan's music (until he heard celine dion)", church going, god fearing, ex-marine who served in two wars -- oh, he really liked his beer too. Compared to those guys, I can believe how different I am in comparison.
Aside from that, I'd like to speak to my mother's father. He died when I was about four, but he seemed like such a cool guy. You know, funny thing is, I have such a tough time holding a conversation with some of my brother in laws, and certain guys that I wouldn't know if we could have a conversation. Might all be silence and nods.
I just bought some new speakers for my computer. I have had speakers with subwoofers before, but I can feel the sound come out of these! o_O
Best buy had them on clearance $25, supposedly regularly $86.
Reeeeeeeeeemarkable.
