Random Rants and Ramblings

Oh the joys of a 10 x 15 foot box with a bathroom that is more like an indoor outhouse. Even more fun when one's walking abilities are limited.

Just watching DVD's all week with your boyfriend and sitting in comfortable silence is a good thing...until you're stuck in aforementioned box with indoor outhouse and don't want to watch the DVD's again.

By the way...DVD's have already been viewed at least a dozen times each in the last 4 months...

Funny Story: Rumba and I were sleeping one night and I was dreaming. I think I was fighting with someone and we got into a fist fight and she started choking me. Well as a result, I woke up hitting Rumba as hard as possible several times and scaring the living shit out of him. Two nights later, we're sleeping again. I'm half awake and turning over to face Rumba when he gets this manic terrified look on his face and starts hitting and pushing me and yelling "No get away!!" and damn near pushes me off the bed until I yelled his name at the top of my lungs to wake him up. Scared the shit out of me! How wacky is that? We determined (as in the past visits as well) that we totally need a bigger bed than just a full size. Queen...a queen bed would give us plenty of room to throw our limbs about without waking the other.

A little over a month until the next visit. Will be right during my midterms I think. Should be hectic but thats fine with me. At least we'll be together for 9 days.

PC People can eat me. Who gives a shit about everything all the time? Don't you have anything better to do? Yes you can be aware and unoffensive...but not to the point where you become offensive in the process.

Banks with retarded policies can eat me too. Wells Fargo sucks. End of discussion.

People that live amongst the roses and are critical of others choices, take note. You are not perfect. The way you do things is not necessarily the best way to do things. And honestly, if you think your life is perfect, you're likely over-compensating for a life that isn't as you want but are pushing it to appear in a certain manner to the rest of the world.

Fresh textbooks make me happy. I'm a big nerd and I happen to enjoy school so textbooks totally add to my beginning excitement. But as I was telling someone before, by March I'll want to drink myself comatose and they'll find me amongst the pile of crap that will surely gather around me during that last half of the semester.

I wonder why healthy food is so expensive and unhealthy food is so cheap when the Americans are all of the sudden to health conscious and are pushing to eat better? Come on now...lets make it easier to lose all the weight we've gained expotentially in the last 25 years.

The times they are a-changin...people need to learn to be more tolerant and accepting and openminded. So do I and I'm working on it everyday.

I get to go to work tomorrow...yes I'm almost excited because that means I'll have a reason to emerge from my box. And we're slow now, so that means I wont be doing much and still getting paid. But if the Bears win...oh lord...its like Sox Mania all over again!! :P

If I hear that Hollywood is bitching about poor box office showings again this year, I'll scream. Don't charge so highly for admission into a 2 hour affair and maybe..just maybe, you'll see an increase in earnings. Or maybe less crappy cookie cutter movies might make a difference too. Clearly something is broke, so fix it.

I need to get a passport. I really should get crackin on that this week. I think it takes awhile to get approved and I might need it sooner than I think. Who has 100 bucks for that though? I do because it will be necessary for my livlihood in the next years.

USA hockey fans should quit bitching about CanadiEn fans. You're just pissed that they are better hockey fans. Or US citizens should stop bitching about CanadiEn's period. I mean really...this whole big rivarly thing is mostly one sided to the hatred of the CanadiEns. In my times in Canada, I haven't heard them complain about Americans...but I always hear about complaints about CanadiEn's down here.

Is Paris Hilton really that important? Or Lindsay Lohan? Or the Olsen Twins? Or their rich Greek shipping heir boyfriends? Who gives a damn? What about Ariel Sharon? He's pretty important. Or those 12 miners? They're pretty important. Or the 130 people that died in Iraq today?? They're pretty important. Or the fire victims in OK, the mudslide victims in Cali?? The fact that Lindsay Lohan is getting so much 'shocking' press over something we've all known for 2 years and is as big and newsworthy as the aforementioned is a disgrace.

Anybody know the part in Moulin Rouge when Christian belts out "My gift is my song..and this one's for you" and all the Parisian lights start glowing. I would like to have that effect someday in something positive that I do.

A quote from a book Rumba gave me for Christmas: "For today, I want you to know that in addition to all the love I can possibly give, I promise to be your friend for as long as I live."
