Oof. I'm tired. Yes I am. I didn't wind up managing to get to bed last night. I finally decided at about 12:30pm today that I absolutely needed some sleep, so I took a three hour nap and woke at 3:30. I'm still working on waking up from that.
This week is dragging along very slowly. Thursday. Is it really just Thursday? I saw the same movie twice this week in theaters. Seems like weeks passed between Saturday and Wednesday. I haven't gotten much done this week, and I need to correct that, get some stuff done. I haven't been working out as much as I should, and I need to correct that, get back into that weight room. I'm STILL smoking, and I really need to correct that. The weather has been so ... ugh. It's been cold, grey, and wet like ... I don't know, all freaking week, it seems to me. Anyway, I need to keep myself busier so time doesn't drag so. I think it's the cold weather that's caused this. It's so cold in most of the house and I need to save money by not turning on the heaters. Yes, heaters plural. I have electric baseboard heating throughout the house, no central heat. So, I've been spending my time in my warm, cozy computer space with my TMBG hoody on to keep me warm. I didn't have a lot of plans this week, but I still got out of the house a couple of times. Got some plans this weekend, and then some more throughout the next week, so that's good.
But the weather just seems to be sapping all my motivation. So cold, so gloomy, so wet and so UGH. I hate it. The ten day forecast is not looking good. Around day 7 it looks like it will warm up a bit, but again with the precipitation. UGH. October is supposed to be perfect temps, beautiful changing foliage, that smell. You know what smell. THE smell. The smell of Halloween. We should be mid to high sixties during the day, mid to low forties at night, dry, brisk and breezy. But no. We have this shit. This crappy, wet, grey, cold-ass grossness. The leaves aren't even changing right. What a horrible start to the fall season. At first it was annoying, but now it's just starting to straight up piss me off. I want my October. I want my favorite month of the year, and I want it NOW, dammit. I want the sun, and I want there to be temperatures that actually feel like there is a sun somewhere in the sky.
I've been writing this blog all day. I keep getting distracted, wandering off, not doing anything productive, but just piddling around. And then I come back, write some more. I'll end it now. I may have more later.
I just had a very amusing (to me) mental image of a mash-up between Lord Of The Rings and Silence Of The Lambs. Gollum, as Buffalo Bill, leaning over the pit, looking panicked, it pans down to the girl holding Precious, the dog. Gollum says, "It puts The Precious in the b (Read More)
I am in desperate need of the catharsis one experiences upon slitting someone's throat with a razor-sharp blade followed by the joy and elation obtained from watching the life drift from their eyes turning them to dead, glassy orbs as I am filled with the energy that used t (Read More)
I rushed out of work at 5pm
Plopped my ass in my car again
Welcome to the land of lazyness,
hey, gotta get my rest in.
Started up the car
headed home for my free time
Look at the street and I see a really bad sign.
Traffic looks so crazy
Everybody's in my way, s (Read More)
I envy a person who can hear their alarm go off, turn it off, and get up out of bed, ready to start the day. I live by the snooze button. It is my best friend in the morning. Well, it and my coffee. I'd marry it if congress would hurry up and pass that bill legalizing m (Read More)
So, my car's wrecked, I told ya that. The bumper was precariously attached. It began to become unattached. I'll fix it with some Gorilla Glue just as soon as the snow is gone and the temperature is more moderate. For now, I removed it and placed it on my porch. So the (Read More)
The last few weeks have been kind of hectic and draining. Last Wednesday I wrecked my car. Hit a patch of ice, slid off the road, down a hill, into a pole. I wasn't hurt. The car was. I spent nearly a week with my brother-in-law trying to fix it. Had to replace the ra (Read More)
Depressed. And I'm quite tired of being depressed. There's no reason for me to be depressed. No logical reason, anyway. I'm insane, that's obvious. I have great friends. What's left of my family, my sister, brother, nephews and niece, et al, are wonderful. I'm w (Read More)
