I'm trying hard to re-arrange but some say it's the hardest thing to do,,,,

....But that's just too many days without you
And I know what they say, about all good things
Will they come to an end but I'll fight this time
So that we might have a chance at this."

Tuesday I still wasn't feeling much better. A little bit but not much buuut I'll take feeling only slightly better over feeling slightly worse. I had to go up to work, on my day off, for the only reason I ever go up there when I'm off, to get my paycheck. (Yay pay day!) and go put it in my bank account.

Then it was off to the store. I was looking for medicine and needed some bathroom supplies and personal products as well. To which I must veer off subject for a moment and bitch. The last couple times I've gotten sick, a day or two in to being sick, Mother Nature gets a sense of humor on me. She thinks she's one seriously funny lady. By that I mean I get sick and then a couple days into being sick, I start my period and I start it DAYS EARLY. So I get to be sick, feel miserable from that and deal with cramps and all that bullshit that goes along with the monthly cycle of having the wonderful thing known as the female reproductive system. Seriously, including this time, the last three times I've been sick this has happened. I don't find it near as funny as the folks in the cosmos do. Anyway back on track. I also needed a box of Klennex because I can't stop fucking sneezing. I sometimes sneeze so hard I fear I'm shooting out brain matter. They didn't have the medicine I was looking for which is cool because the stuff I have seems to be working fine and I forgot the damn Kleenex again. Second day in a row I've forgot to get them. Ugh. I'm sick of using toilet tissue every time I need something but oh well.

I also rented two DVD's for $1 each. I got What Happens In Vegas and Tropic Thunder. I saw What Happens In Vegas back when it came out, Boyfriend and I both thought it looked amusing and went to see it one night when we were bored. Tropic Thunder, I had not seen yet.

So after watching What Happens In Vegas, YB, LS and I started watching Tropic Thunder. I think we got 20 minutes in, if that far, before we quit and took it out, lol. SO happy I only paid $1 to rent it. Seriously, I'd rather watch a Will Ferrell movie over having to watch even 20 minutes of that again and I can't effing stand Will Ferrell's movies.

I think I'm gonna rent Swing Vote, Righteous Kill or Max Payne next. One of those 3. I'm loving the $1 DVD rentals now, lol.

Underworld: Rise of the Lycans is out Friday! Fucking finally. Yaaaay. So excited.

I actually kind of want to watch Repo! The Genetic Opera but meh, I dunno about it. I want someone I know and trust their opinion on about movies to watch it and then let me know if it sucks complete balls or if it's semi decent to put yourself through or vice versa. I might just, you know, watch it for free and then I didn't waste anything but time if it really sucks.

I was bored and browsing around a website I love. I love pictures that tell a story. I love pictures that need no words to understand what is going on in them. I love even more pictures that do need words because what you see isn't all that is being conveyed in it. Sometimes you need the artists perspective to pick up on subtle things that make it that much better. My favorite thing about the picture I posted? (Image by TheoGoth)

The rays of light coming through the branches. I love the tree with the bare branches too. I wish I could see what this shot looked like in color though. I do absolutely love black and whites but sometimes, I wonder about the colors that would have been there instead. Rich and full? Lacking and lifeless? Shiny and bright? Shadows and rays of light? I love a good contrast as much as I love a simple black and white shot.

Something I also love in edited pictures is selective coloring. Click it, it's pretty. ;) The one thing of color surrounded by everything else in shades of grey, white and black. Even if it's a few items in color set around grey, white and black, I just love that effect. I think it looks so cool.

*Not all are work safe!* Also love this shot, this shot, this shot, this shot, this shot, this shot, this shot and this shot. All the links are a look at some of my favorite works by the awesome deviants of that website and again, not all the images are work safe so it's best not to click them if you're at work. ;)

Anyway..... =o) Enough of my ramblings. Have some questions. Or not. I always put these last for anyone who wants to skip them in favor of the real reading. ;)

Wednesday Weirdness #39

1.) Do you drive with your hands at 10 and 2 on the wheel?

Nope. =)


2.) How long do you keep cards given to you on birthdays and holidays before throwing them away? If you don't throw them out, what do you do with them?

It depends. One of my friends, Artist Guy, makes up his own Christmas cards every few years. He draws them out and they're multiple pages of crazy art and silly cartoons. He makes these for 30 to 40 people, friends and family and then sends them out. Not a single one is the same ever. They might have similarities but he always adds in a few things that are unique to each person he's making the card for. He usually starts doing these in August so he can get them all done in time. I still have the three I've gotten from him in the time we've been friends because they are the coolest fucking cards ever.

Store bought ones I don't keep that long. If there's something particular that really strikes a nerve in me, I'll keep it long enough until I write down the lines or phrases I want off the card to remember and then toss the card. I keep homemade cards for ever because they're unique. Not another person has ever picked up one of those cards and given it to someone else because the generic words were perfect for them as well.


3.) If, when you die, you could will any one of your characteristics to your children (child/future children), what would it be and why?

Oh I have no idea. I don't even want a kid to tell you the truth. I never have and still don't. I know people tell me this will change but I have reasons why I don't want a kid. I'm even going to share them when I answer Smiley's interview questions this week. *grin* For the sake of the question since we're pretending... I would want my kid to have my ability to stand up for what
I believe in, even if it's not what the majority believes in.


4.) What is the best personality trait you got from your mother and the best personality trait that you got from your father?

I get being logical and analytical from my dad, I dig that.
I get being creative from my mom and I dig that too.


5.) What is something that you wish you had a better understanding of?

My boyfriend's mind. Sometimes, I just cannot understand his logic and it's frustrating, especially in a disagreement.


6.) What makes you nervous?

Tornadoes. Tornado warnings and watches. They freak me out. I'll go out in a hurricane and I'll sit outside in pouring rain watching thunder and lightning but tornadoes, even warnings of one, make me nervous.


7.) What is the strangest household object that you have ever or would ever use for help in masturbation?

Oh... I'm not even answering this one. Lol. =) Those who need to know do know and those who don't can always ask away from here. Not saying you'll get an answer but it never hurts to ask, right? Lol.


8.) What do you have sitting on the counter top in your bathroom?

Let me go look, lol I don't have a little wall cabinet and the cabinets underneath have clothing in them and other products. I don't have a room technically so I keep tons of shit in the storage space of the bathroom downstairs since basically no one but me really uses it for anyway. So.... Shampoo, sea salt soap, tampons, hair care products, facial care products, toothpaste, toothbrush, mouth wash, eye drops, deodorant, candles, lavender chamomile powder, sunscreen, hair brush, blow dryer, body butter and a bottle of rum. I need to put the tampons back under the counter. The rum can stay but don't ask, lol.
