2nd Post for Today-Thoughts for a Friday

Sometimes I get really frustrated when I am at work and am asked to do work. It's like a burden that I don't want to deal with. Especially when I am really into surfing the net or am trying to win an ebay bid. Below is my reaction.

Rats in Space

A few weeks ago a I got super stoney from eating some hash chocolate with a few friends. Now I usually don't really partake-not to say i'm against it-I just don't because of the pure stoneyness factor. Anyways, this was some wavy gravy style hash chocolate becuase I was just lit. I felt.......... pure amazingness. We then got it in our heads that we would call all the video stores in SF and ask about a certain movie and if they had it.

...ring.....ring.....
Me: Hello do you have that one movie with the........rat in it?
Store: Rat, hmmn? Ratatouille? Fivel Goes West? Despereaux?
Me: No, none of those.
Store: Can you elaborate?
Me: You know the movie with the rat in it where they go to space starring Tom Hanks.
Store: Tom Hanks? Apollo 13? Is this live action or a cartoon?
Me: It's definately live action. It co-stars Samuel L. Jackson.
Store:Is this a prank? (At this point i usually lost it and had to hang up)

I don't remember exactly what stores we called, but I do remember that Lost Weekend definately did not play along.

In the end, it makes me think back to when I was in middle school and a prank call was just a part of growing up in a small town, having nothing much to do and being a boy. This is of course pre nudie mags, cigars in the creek,loud music and baggy pants.

Yes weak can do it too!

First of all, sorry to all my avid readers for my lack of posts. I have not been too busy, so I have no excuses. I honestly think that there is no point in blogging for the sake of blogging. Do you want to hear about how i painted some cabinets the other day? gold as a matter of fact. Or how about how i have to work at 7:30am tommorow? Lame! Or what about how my mom constantly calls me about coming to visit her all the time? Kinda cool! Or that i've been slightly obsessed with ebay? I've been buying knives and records lately. I'm also looking for a new camera-possibly the G10 Canon Powershot. And that I seem to have lost the charger and power chords to both my video camera and my scanner-Radio Shack or Intranet? Or that the neighbor really needs to clean the backyard so that I can really bbq the fuck out of it this summer. Cuba, Guatemala and Mexico in June! 2009 rock hard abs contest-with myself as the only contestant! Excersizing really does make you feel better-honestly.

Anyways, those are the random thoughts that are sinking around in my head at this point right. Once again I will be back when I have something funny or interesting to say!

When You are Engulfed in Wigfield

Ok, I have to admit David Sedaris is capital H Hilarious. This collection of short stories entitled When You are Engulfed in Flames is absolutely a laugh riot. Inside you will travel with Sedaris through his various awkward life situations and happinstanes. Honestly, why can't I be friends with this guy..........or this family. Which brings me to the book Wigfield co-written by Amy Sedaris. I'm not sure how I feel about the cover, but if it's anything like Strangers With Candy then I am DOWN!

Sad Days Are Bound to Happen

After almost 5 years of loyal service my trusty, yet thick and heavy ipod has taken a turn for worse. It all happened this morning when I plugged it in to charge. My computer didn't seem to read it and there seemed to be nothing on it. This made me sad and speachless. I felt I was staring at the blank canvas of a painting I had been working on for five years. I am sad that I have lost songs that I might not be able to retrieve again. I guess in the end everyone needs to be shot down every once in a while to know that they are still alive and not invincible.

P.S. I am too stubborn to buy a new ipod and will bleed every last drop out of this baby!

Remember when things were built to last?
