WTF Wednesday #9

WTF Wednesday number 9

I don’t really think I’m ever going to get to that one thing I been trying to put in here for the WTF issue. Next time I promise… most likely.

It’s bag on invisible don day again, but in a much nicer way than I normally bag on myself.

Somehow I’m turning into a morning person…WTF… seriously I’m waking up before my alarm every freaking day now and it’s getting a bit crazy. At least I’m not a chipper and up beat morning person or else I would just have to kill myself.

You know the type, the ones who say, OMG it’s such a wonderful day, I’m happy to be awake… and blah happiness blah…you just want to choke the life out of people like that… am I right?

So the one good thing in all of it is that I’m not happy about being a morning person but boom …awake… look at the clock / phone … ugh … seriously?... WTF

I really like sleep… as in a lot.

Now granted I don’t really try to do a lot of sleeping in the first place but I try to a lot a certain amount 5 to 6 hours is good right? So waking up before the alarm is messing with the system in a major way.

I’m not exactly sure what has brought all of this on but I recently made some changes based on the fact that I didn’t die when I thought I would. Yeah, I wasn’t certain I would make it this far along the game board. Rather than get into a lot of detail, we’ll just say that I made some questionable choices a few times and harm has had a way of finding me. There are things which I can’t write about too because, well they are classified and what not. But even when I’m just minding my own business, Karma chose me as a whipping boy for some reason. I’m not all that clear what that reason is but who am I to question it I just roll with the punches, car crashes, and other random stuff.

So as the clock went pasted the time that I figured would be the end of invisible don and it doesn’t look like the end is all that nearish unless you believe the Mayans I should probably develop a couple of …ugh… healthier habits. I know I’m nearly ashamed too.

I have developed unmentioned healthy habits and a side effect of that choice appears to be that I get to be a morning person … Yea!…


Not Yea… because I still like being a night person. Better stuff happens at night. Vampires, werewolves ok maybe not werewolves, other spooky stuff and better TV. Seriously if you’ve even been stuck at home during the day, TV in the day time sucks in a big big way. Thank god for the internet and netflix

The other day I just rejected being a morning person. I held my own one man protest and told morning person me, No. No, I’m not getting up and I laid there awake, eyes closed in defiance and justified to myself saying in bed, laying there awake for the entire fourteen minutes or so that I was awake before the alarm. And then some more just to thumb my nose at the morning person I’m becoming. Didn’t matter because what did I do today

I got out of bed before the alarm.

I know I’m sorry, I’m a goner I have cheated on the alarm clock, I’ve been untrue to my night owl ways and not hit the snooze button in over a week, I even thought about…I’m not even sure I can say this next part it is awful …you may want to sit down if you aren’t already sitting… it is horrific …I thought … I though about… I can’t believe it actually crossed my mind… I though about drinking less coffee.

I am sorry I don’t know what has come over me. I should just tie on a massive drunk sleep until noon just to see how morning person me likes night person me.

I won’t do it though …WTF is happening to me?

In other news.

Hoover decided that I might be a little Emo but not is the wearing funny clothes and not bathing sort of way but other aspects. I’ll give it some thought

Litter box thought

Stuntboy had it as his chore today so there isn’t one

Shower thought of the day

What direction do most people face in the shower … toward the water or away from the water?

That’s all for now, other stuff tomorrow

The last two weekends in one issue

The last two weekends have been interesting. One I can talk about and the other I’m not sure I’m at liberty to speak about in depth so I won’t

Starting with the weekend which is the furthest from today. A friend got married more specifically a former significant other got married.

Now, before you go all shouldn’t this be in the WTF Wednesday file. I stop you and say, No it shouldn’t. I’m not sure if this is an odd thing or not but most of the women with whom I’ve been in relationships still talk to me and at least on some level consider me a friend.

Sometimes it is just hard to maintain those friendships because of distance and other reasons why friend don’t always remain close. I don’t really ask about it so I don’t know if this is odd or not but people seem to think it is a little strange when I mention it.

Anyway this friend AKA Texas asks, hey if I invited you to my wedding would you come. I said yes immediately. Then asked if there was a section for exes that I would have to sit in, she said no, that I was allowed to sit with everyone else like a regular person. See I am a regular person.

The way I see it is everyone has a past, no matter who you are and everyone will have a future. Now you may or may not be a part of that future just depends on how you deal with things. We never got that far in our relationship and this relationship seems to make her happy. So who am I really to say one way or the other if it’s a good one or not. It’s her life to live how she wants not how I or anyone else thinks she should.

When ever I mentioned I was going to Texas’s wedding, people would say, “Really, why the hell would you do that?”

I thought why wouldn’t I go? We were friends while we dated, and remained friends afterwards. Friends celebrate things in each other’s lives.

There were several people at the wedding who knew us as a couple and I got some pretty strange looks from a few people as well as some hey good to see you here. Then as the grape vine twists it was cycled back to me that some people thought I should not have gone and others who thought you know it was nice to see someone so evolved and able to be there. There were more of the latter than the former.

I’m not sure how evolved I am but I still don’t see why people can’t accept that people can remain friends even after they have been in relationships. Now I won’t say there weren’t some raw moments and hurt feelings at first. But in all honesty I owe this friend a lot because she was a key person in helping me to quit smoking something I had tried and failed to do many times before.

Her wedding by the way was very interesting and it was the first time I had ever seen both people cry their way through their vows usually it’s only one or the other. Mainly I’ve seen more men cry than the women Now many of you guys you may think you’re not in tune to your tears but you just might be standing there exchanging vows and looking across at the person whom you love. Just saying you may want to have that tissue handy.

This past weekend is the one which is respectfully classified. Classified not because it is OMG stuff but because I don’t always talk about everything in my life in here, there are a lot of things which are private and are not for general knowledge. I keep a secret well and don’t talk about things which should be private.

I will say that I had a very good time at one particular point and while I was nervous mainly because I was happy and looking forward to things. I don’t know where things go from here but isn’t that part of the enjoyment of life the not knowing, the anticipation and the looking forward to things and living in the moment. I’m still smiling a lot today because of that one point.

Sunday was Brand A’s birthday and I was able to meet her and Head Nod’s son for the first time. He is a very cute baby and seems to like me for what ever reason.

I got there a bit after several people, like maybe five minutes or so. But this worked out because my order was in later and when Brand A and everyone else go their food mine order was just going in so I was able to hold the baby and in a few moments of me holding him and doing the RLS leg bouncing things he was knocked out sleeping which he wasn’t doing for some reason. He didn’t seem fussy at all but now I guess I can add baby whisper to my list of nick names. Doodle came down at one point and hung out for a few minutes, was good to see her. I asked how she had gotten so tan this early in the year and she said, I was born this way. To which I said I was there No, and then someone else pointed out that it might have been believable if I didn’t have a very Irish complexion, i.e. very pale.

So it was a good weekend.

Tick Tock

Some how there used to be more time in the day.

I’m not sure exactly where it has all gone but I don’t seem to have it any more. I would normally blame the whole daylight savings time thing but this seems to be a lot more time than that hour.

However at other times there just seems to be too much time.

Why is it that when you are having the most amazing time, time seems to slip away all to quickly.

Then when we want time to move more quickly, it goes too slowly

There have been so many things lately that have made me see time go far too quickly

Then others when times seem to have stopped all together.

In other news

I am happy and that is all I can say about that

I don’t even mind this task at the moment.

Pandora

While sleep holds me Mab comes on her chariot
Sowing the seeds of my thoughts in the fertile ground of my slumber

It is here in these dreams I see beyond the day
Free to run, to live beyond the hands of Cronos

Clutching slivers in my scarred hands gripping them tightly with my grasp
To run beyond the vigilant guard and far beyond the walls of Phobos

There deep within the my forest of thoughts I can see the world
Through the primrose but I see a possible future in those moments

Dreams and illusions are only reflections of how to shape the world
Were my hands the ever more nimble builder

I wake with only the fleeting memories and wishing I could return
My smile remains as the only evidence


That’s all for now, other stuff tomorrow

Happy Birthday if it’s your birthday and a very merry un birthday if it isn’t your birthday

Don't call me little b@$tard...

Don’t call me little b@$tard …

April 5th was barefoot day … I didn’t know but found out when there were a ton of bare foot pictures on the inter webs.

I asked around and a lot of people didn’t know too.

The thing is this guy Tom, makes shoes. Then he sells shoes. Then for every pair of shoes he sells, he gives a pair away. Which I did know prior to barefoot day, but I’ve never seen his shoes anywhere.

Now every girl I asked about said oh cool two pairs of shoes for the price of one or a BOGO

I had to burst a lot of bubbles by saying, No he gives them to poor people who don’t have shoes. So it is a BOGO but two people get the shoes for the price of one instead of one person getting two pairs of shoes.

The guys weren’t really interested.

I might have gone bare foot if I knew.

Hippy mower is fun, but I would like a goat, I don’t think I can have one unless it was really small, anyone know where I can get a tiny little goat. I mean really small. Like as in people might think it was a really smallish dog with horns

WTF Wednesday #8

WTF Wednesday Number 8

Once again I had something else planned for today but something else has come up that I feel really merits the WTF of the week.

That would be all of our elected officials. WTF boys and girls in your job description I think it says something about leaders

You know to do something

As in get shit done

We pay your *&^#*) @$$es pretty darn well too - bet you get your phucking checks even if the government isn’t working WTF?

Grow the hell up, be men and women and lead don’t be little boys and girls and bicker and fight.

Before start in on me with the hatin’ I agree there are two sides to an argument

If you really want to get to it there are countless, ifs and buts to any argument and as the saying goes, if, ifs and buts were candy and nuts oh what a Christmas it would be.

There are things that need to be done, regardless of your side of the fence

So get it done compromise and then fix what doesn’t work later. No government has ever built a perfect policy, piece of legislation or program … and my money is on that it never will happen.

So gather up your big boy and girl panties, put on your work clothes and get something done

In other news

I lost sight of that Aldo guy not sure where he has ended up but I’m sure he is fine.

Trying to keep it a little more Zen, better to keep it more Zen at least for now.

I’m sure Aldo is fine …right?

It would be nice if they just didn’t poop for one day.

Hey what should I do with this book?

I started out writing about one of the things that I’ve been meditating on lately being the falling away from the daily use of weapons in our modern age. However a lot of other thoughts crept in regarding today’s world with the world when the Hagakure was written 300 years ago.

Our worlds are very different but still face many of the same issues.

Lots of books have been around for centuries the Hagakure being just one of many some have been around for many centuries.

The range of topics varies but my thoughts have been have these oldest books survived because of the great knowledge written down on the pages, stone, animal hide, mashes and dried plant matter or what ever materials they were penned.

Many cases the argument would seem fairly easy yes these books contain knowledge that needs to be known by the generations that follow and people have taken great care to preserve them.

However the nagging thought in the back of my mind is are these really the best things that man had offered up and what remains from 2000 years ago are just what happened to survive until the modern day.

I’m sure there is some doubt to the latter argument but take the library of Alexandria burned to the ground by Romans what knowledge was lost then for all time. What painful discoveries already made had to be made over again. How many times have we had to relearn that the world is round or round-ish, or that the misuse of lands leads to the death of the people living on those lands? How close have we come to extinction? They estimate that the plague killed off over a quarter of the world population at that time.

Has that ever happened before and all record of it has been lost to the whims of a tyrant’s torch? Or even an accidental fire, every major European city and several here in the US have been extremely damaged by mass fires.

Our transfer of knowledge into technology which isn’t compatible with the next generation of technology, could we be our own killers of knowledge in our quest to be better?

But is what survives the best stuff that was ever out there or will somebody find some thing buried somewhere and say, ‘We found better stuff.’ But this time it won’t be juice it will be something even cooler.

I still think I look at the world just fine thank you very much
