Deaf In One Ear, Blind In The Other

I am deaf in the ears, blind in the eyes, mute in the tongue, and psychic in the brain.

I have to say that I am entranced by a new book. New to me anyways, but honestly I can't put down The Hunger Games.

I like titles that don't make sense.

Adventure of the week before this one: my dishwasher was being a jerk and made sure that I came home to a halfway flooded house. That was the adventure to begin with, the rest of it was the three days to pull up carpet, wood flooring, dry it all out, get new flooring, put the carpet back, and move the furniture back to where it is supposed to reside.

I have a cat. I have a cat with puppy dog eyes dogs only WISH they had. They envy his skills.

Painted some more.

I am drawing blanks here. I've been falling out of my writing routine and it's making me suffer.

I motivated myself today. In preparation for Lent (for which I am giving up procrastination and bad exercising habits) I decided to pay attention in class today and I took amazing notes. I feel so proud. Pat on the back for me from me! WHOOHOO.

Now, if I could just finish that project and paper due tomorrow...

Glitter is like that radiation poisoning that travels through food chains and builds up and eventually kills the thing that eats the thing that eats the thing that eats the thing that eats the thing that was poisoned by radiation. It will never ever really get out of your system. Never. It's the same idea as radioactive decay, it never goes away even if it's around for thousands of years, it has that half-life thing going on. If you're sitting next to someone who has glitter on their shirt, if you sit where someone with glitter sat before you, or worse, if you hug someone covered with glitter, you will never be able to get rid of it. You're stuck with it forever.

Why is it that I come to the college library to do research and I see a book about theorizing Twilight? It makes me want to laugh and cry at the same time. Really? Really?

Happy FAT Tuesday. I know, I shouldn't have made that word bold, it makes it self conscious, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I think it's BEAUTIFUL.
Mardi Gras, you used to come with huge celebrations for me, and now I can't find people who celebrate it as fun as I have seen before. I love the atmosphere and the celebrations, maybe I'll find somewhere next year, it's a little too late now anyways.

I'm going to get back to my not-procrastinating state of mind (I hope) so I will blog later when I have something interesting to share with the non-existent world that is my audience.

I Have An Adventure To Tell, Except It's Not Going To Be In This Post, It Will Be In The Next One!

Hello and happy (the day after) Valentines day (aka corporate holiday)!

Yes, it's a big selling day, a day to buy because someone is pulling on your heart strings, and also because it is now expected of you. No, I have nothing against Valentines day, I actually think it's sweet, but I guess I've fallen into the habit of not thinking much about it because I was always that person who didn't get anything from someone, hard to believe right? (this is where you say, "Wow! Nothing at all? I can't understand why, you're so cool and unbelievably awesome, I would get you a valentine if I knew how to!") Aw, that's so sweet, thanks! But I have a Valentine, I'm afraid I would have to decline your offer anyways, it's the thought that counts!

Okay, I almost witnessed an accident today, I don't understand why cars don't look where they're going. I was walking up to the college, I hear a squeal (of a tire, not a pig!) next to me, I turn and see a student on a motorbike swerving because a car pulled out right in front of him while he was driving by. Stupid car, look before you pull out! It may be a small vehicle, but he isn't invisible! Goodness gracious. So, the motorbike guy almost fell off, but caught his balance and continued onward. Then again, motorbike guy wasn't being very smart either, no helmet to be seen on his head. I guess it's not a law here, just like there's no law to prevent texting and driving. The human race gets a little more stupid every time I look at it. Hypocritical I suppose, since I've done stupid things too. Doesn't mean I can't make that observation though!

Another side effect on procrastinating on writing a new blog post is that I want to comment on the SuperBowl. I dislike watching sports, any kind of sport, but I like the commercials, and the whole game, up until the last three minutes of the 4th quarter I didn't know which team was which, I had them switched up so I thought the Patriots were winning when it was really the giants, but then my little brother (who pays more attention than I do apparently) points out that the Giants were winning. Then the Patriots scored and won. Eeeeeeeh, football, played it once, but to watch? Nah, no thank you.

"Can we change the subject?"
"Why? Did it wet itself?"

Back to stupid people. Apparently some guy was trying to do a drug deal over the phone, and instead of calling the number of the buyer, he called 911 and tried to sell them drugs. How do you accidentally try to sell drugs to the police? How do you accidentally dial 911 to sell drugs? What the heck. I'm guessing the dealer was pretty stoned, obviously not the brightest, but that's in favor of the police. Things like that make me laugh.

I bet that if somehow scientists were able to create a marble sized ball of pure electrons and had someone eat it, they would explode.

I was walking down the hall a while ago, and a man was walking past me and turned to me saying "I lost my girlfriend" and the only thing I could say back was, "Oh, that's not good, I hope you find her." Why do people say such weird things to me? I didn't now the guy from Adam. Made me laugh though.

A few minutes ago someone walked into the office I work at, and it was the motorbike guy who almost got run over. Very polite and smiles a lot, he doesn't seem to upset about the whole thing, that's good.

So much to do, so little time, wish me luck.
