Yep, Jumped The Shark.

Having a bad day. Can't really discuss it cause, well, people read this now. Sadly that means my blog has jumped the shark, because I feel like having to edit my thoughts and conversation and such because it's gonna piss people off, even tho I am RIGHT, well, thats jumping the shark.

Regardless, I enjoy doing this, and, I am ACTUALLY writing, so, I will continue to do this, and instead of focusing on the world around me as I write, I'll try and relay more funny stories about things I've seen.

Anyways, off to have my ONE joy for the day... Walking Holly The Dog!

Another "Contrary To Popular Belief" Entry

My mom always used to say to me when I was down, I should shave. Cause usually when I get down, I tend to not bother shaving. IDK why this is, it just is...

But, whenever my mom would be all seeing me upset and such, that would be her suggestion.

One thing I learned way too late in life was that everything your parents EVER told you when you were younger was right, I think this is the only exception that I have found over the years.

Shaving doesn't make me feel better. What it DOES do tho, is make me "COOLER", as fat people like me get hot fast.

Case in point is my gf, and the fact shes really thin. You know how you can tell this ain't no lie? My gf is in her bedroom right now, under THREE blankets. These are NOT "THIN" Blankets mind you... shes under a HEAVY ASS comforter type blanket, a REALLY REALLY Heavy type knit/fuzzy thing, and when I say HEAVY, dude, the blanket weighs like 15 pounds, AND shes under the Purple type thinner knit blanket I usually use. At this point in time when I go back into her bedroom to go to sleep, if thats in fact what I do, since, I'm still awake from stress, and I DVR'd Stephen King's Thinner the other night, so I might go watch THAT, but when I get back in there, I'll be sleeping under NO blankets. This is how fat I am, that I'm still hot and its like 50 degrees outside right now. It was 70 last night.

So, yeah, I'm fat. But, shaving DOES make me "COOLER", so its an argueable point than I guess that my mom IS right in that I'm still depressed, but at least I'm not as hot as I was an hour ago.

My gf has asked me to recall the security place tomorrow since the address I gave to the location of the building was WRONG, and she thinks that since none of the security guards at the building I am trying to get a job, don't actually HAVE guns, that she thinks by me screwing up the location, they think I want to work at a BANK, not so much an office building.

I tend to think its a company wide requirement, but, whatever, I'm not the type whose gonna argue about something like this when its real easy for me to make another phone call to ask.

I've also started playing games on the computer, you know, the games that COME with the PC? I started playing Hearts. After a few games I renamed the players from "East", "West", and "North" to Asshole Cheat, Fukstain Cheat, and Douchebag Cheat... Why you ask? well cause it seems like EVERY HAND they stick me with the Queen of Spades... EXCEPT when I'm trying to shoot the moon. I find this to be cheating cause it seems to me when I play that the 3 computer players are playing 3 against 1, and NEVER for themselves. Like, the ONLY TIME one of the computer players gets STUCK with teh queen of spades is when I can actually give it to them, OR, when I CAN shoot them moon.

Its a load of bullshit if you ask me, yet, I play and play and play cause its so frustrating to KNOW how to play this game, yet ALWAYS somehow get screwed.

Anyways, hopefully it won't rain tomorrow. Taking Holly for a walk is the best part of my day out here. Each day i EAT and DON'T at least walk the mile or so with Holly, is me GAINING more weight and getting FATTER. Thank god for Diet Dr. K. If it didn't taste as good as it did, I can just imagine how much fatter I'd be from drinking regular soda.

OH, I'll leave with this note... watched the final 2 days of the Man Vs Machine Jeopardy game... Watson won, but, the highlights for me were how when he got a Daily Double he choose weird random amounts of money to bet, AND how Ken Jennings directly quoted the Simpsons with his 2nd day Final Jeopardy response.... that guy is cool as fuck. I felt bad for him and Brad tho, those 2 guys looked really kinda pissed that they CLEARLY knew the answers, but somehow Watson was buzzing in before them. But Ken Jennings quoting the simpsons was fucking amazing.

Yet ANOTHER Denial

So, I called about a job before. I was lead to believe that I actually had a chance to get this one. The truth is, I had NO chance.

I call, very nice, common theme out here, I ask about the job opening, and I'm told...

1. You need a guard card. (Don't have one of those, and, They don't train)
2. You need a hand gun and fire arms permit (don't have one of those either)
3. You need 1 years experience working in security (yet again, no)

So YAY, my day started out WONDERFUL... I than go downstairs to get some water and see if anything needs to be cleaned from when I was down there a few hours ago, and, whats this? It's raining.... so this means, my one "fun" thing I do during the day, take Holly TheDawg for a walk, I can't even do THAT today. I think someone should punch Albert Hammond in his uneducated face.. it never rains in southern california my ass.

I've decided, stupidly I might add, to head out and get some lunch. Mainly cause I feel bad Holly won't be able to get out of the house for a little while, but, I have gotten really heavy since I've been here. My belt when I came OUT here was like, I had like 12-14 inches of EXTRA Belt... now i barely have 4 inches of extra belt.

So thats NO lie.

But, I feel bad I can't take Holly out for a walk, so, a car ride will do just as well I'd suspect.

Holly is a very happy dog it seems. Yesterday, Holly, has 2 beds, 1 in my gfs room, and we had oe on the landing outside out room, but the other dog in the house shit and piss all over it, so, its just the foam inside now, we had it standing up in my gfs closet, and when I say closet I mean a FULL room of clothes, NOT a "Closet", so I laid it down and covered it with towels so now instead of just laying on the floor when Holly isn't in our room, Holly has a big fat soft "bed" again. Gotta see if there is a softer type blanket downstairs for Holly, and pop that on there.

Holly has been such a good dog since I've been here, it makes me smile to know that shes happy.

Ok, well, I'm off to get lunch.

Crazy Assholes Making Lots Of Noise

So I barely got any sleep last night as I had to keep adjusting myself from almost getting rolled off the bed, than when I FINALLY get comfortable? The Yippie dog across the street doesn't shut the fuck up.

When the yippie dog across the street FINALLY shuts the fuck up, low and behold, here comes CRAZY ASSHOLES making lots of noise by doing tree branch trimming RIGHT next to my fucking window... LITERALLY... It was so fucking loud, Holly TheDawg, refused to come into not only my gf's room, BUT refused to go into the room next to ours my gf uses as a closet, AND, refused to stay upstairs all together.

I finally just got up and sulked. It's now about 130pm PST and I got MAYBE 30-45 minutes of ACTUAL sleep last night. Yay me.

The pole saw next to my window reminded me of Matt my ex co-worker calling our boss (in a loving manner) a "Crazy Asshole" cause when we used to trim trees or cut trees down, our boss would go CRAZY!!! I always explained to Matt, dude, its human nature that when you have a Chainsaw or destructive cutting impliment in your hand, you don't WANT to stop using it!

It used to be lots of fun working with Matt, whenever our boss would be cutting shit, I'd just be mouthing to matt and pointing to our boss shaking my head saying..."Crazy Asshole!!!"

Matt would laugh, we'd pack trees into buckets of machines to get thrown out.

I miss my old job. There really wasn't a better job that I could've asked for. Its really a shame I had to quit a job I loved so much.

Jeopardy: Man Vs Machine

Clearly the people at IBM are unaware of the Bubblegum Crisis Series, or the Matrix series, or, the Terminator series.

But ok seriously, it was entertaining. For people like me who took the time to watch the NOVA special, today was at times boring due to they were just relaying information already put forth on the special, but, PBS, who watches THAT!?!?!?! LOL.

It was interesting tho watching Brad and Ken playing a computer, and, not one wrong answer was given until after the 1st break, which, I haven't seen yet in my time watching Jeopardy.

Can't wait for tomorrow and weds to see what else transpires.

Dinner was good. slightly over cooked the PAN salmon, and, I fucked up the baked salmon, I wrote down a recipie, and, I wanted to use Junior Johnson's Lightnin Lemonade instead of Bourbon, and, since my mind was drifiting, I put 1/4 cup of Hennessey in it by mistake... came out a tad alcoholy... tasted good with no Soy sause on the rice tho I thought.

Next time, should be able to cook it nice and right with this 1st time turning out well, especially the spices on the pan seared salmon.

Ok, I'm off to bed now. My GF is downstairs watching... Criminal Minds... CRIMINAL MINTZ FTW!!!

Oh, Yay, It's Valentine's Day...

Insert rolleyes icon here.

Just another day.

Funny, I've gotten job offers.... none of which are for out here in California. NICE.

Makes my day.

Wish it made me happy to hear that, but, the situation I'm in, moving at this moment isn't an option. Thats pretty sad.

Anyways, so yeah, it was 3 months yesterday I believe that I got out here. Time sure stands still when you don't have anything to do other than look for jobs online and sleep.

I'd like to go do some stuff, but, I get told that I should WAIT till my gf can go, but than, we never go... I really want to go mail letters from Twin Peaks LOL... I can send myself a pretend response from Laura Palmer as if I responded to her ad in Flesh World!!!

I should shave. my beard and goatee are getting ridiculously long.

I should really watch Winter's Bone again, I keep reading that its an amazing movie. I've watched it twice already and found it to really be, not good.

Maybe I'll take Holly for a walk after I'm done in here so I'm actually doing SOMETHING today OTHER than just pretty much nothing.

So tired of this, I really wish there was something more for me, but it sure does seem like this is it.

Valentine's Day Is COMPLETE And Utter Boolsheet

So, while its 1015 or so PST, its after 12 at my home, so, since I'm using the bathroom I figured this was as good a time as any to get in my thoughts about Valentine's Day.

Valentine's Day is complete bullshit.

Heres one reason, I grew up being taught the right thing, that everyone is equal. Men. Women. Black. White. God created us all in his image, so we are all equal.

That being said, why does Valentine's Day have the Aura of it HAS to be a MAN, not the WOMAN who has to do something for the day?

I moved 3000 miles to be with my gf, I have NO JOB cause of this, and no job prospects cause of this... Yet, I'm the one who looks like a fucking scumbag cause my GF isn't getting anything for Valentine's Day because, well, I can't even afford 2 bucks for a card.

Why can't the WOMAN do something and take the lead on Valentine's Day? I've now seen both side of the coin here, which I'll get to, and I don't see why I have to be the bad guy after moving like I did, specifically FOR HER, now that CAUSE of this I have NO MONEY... but I look like the scumbag.

Why is that?

When I worked for the heartless drug chain, I always worked the night before Valentine's Day. Mostly cause 9 of the 11 Vtines Days I was there, I didn't HAVE a gf or a Valentine. I took off only one, which was a trip I than took to see my now ex at school. But, heres what's annoying, watching dudes come in at 3am ON VTines day, buying something cause they FORGOT...

You can't go into a fucking store for 6 weeks previous WITHOUT having it shoved down your fucking throat.

So, what kind of boyfriend are they being when, they are shopping at 3am on Vtines Day and just buying whatever is in the store so they don't look like the scumbag that they are?

See, this is what I mean. Cause I literally can't afford something for my GF, I LOOK like one of those guys, when I'm not.

So, again, my question now is, even if my gf WANTED to pay for Valentine's Day this year, I wouldn't let her since, well, I've had it ALSO ingrained into my head that the MALE is SUPPOSED to take the lead on VTines Day... NOT the female.

So, what than this leaves me with? Yet another Valentines Day that PROVES that Valentine's Day ISN'T and SHOULDN'T be anything special.

Buying shit for your partner on Valentine's Day is like getting drunk on St. Patty's Day or New Years Eve... you do it cause you feel OBLIGATED TOO.... Not cause you WANT TO.

That to me is a load of bullshit. Excuse me, BOOLSHEET

I'm trying to remember anything good thats EVER happened to me on VTine's Day... I remember one year, my Sr. year in HS, I was dating this girl Suzie, who, after we broke up just HATED my guts for some reason... But, what would you have done if your gf, all she EVER did was compare you to her ex-boyfriend? I couldn't deal with it. but anyways, I remember I spent VTine's day with her, I didn't have a car than, so, me and a few of my friends hung out, walked around my town and such, I went into the local food store to get a beverage, and, when I was there, I bought her a box of these Valentine's Heart shaped cakes... She seemed to enjoy it, especially when in HS, you really don't have the money for that sort of thing.

Spent the night at her house I believe with my friend and her friend.

I remember the Valentine's Day I mentioned above, my ex Gf went away to college, and, I spent one year visiting and basically we just hung out in her dorm room for the few days as her roommate had gone home? or somewhere? I don't really remember, and, we had the room to our selves.

The other year I spent with her at school, actually, it's a funny story when you think about it, I booked hotel room cause this year her roommate wasn't going away, anyways, I took her to see Titanic, which I thought was a romantic thing to do, and, I admittedly started to weep at the end, and, my gf at the time laughed at me, not in a menacing manner, but, everyone that was around us was shooting her dirty looks... It was pretty funny than when I noticed it, and, pretty funny now...

The only other Vtine's day that was memorbale to me was, the 1st one when me and my current GF were together, I flew out and surprised her for Vtines day. Spent 5 or 6 days out here, we pretty much just spent 5 days in her bedroom just being together. Seems like the days of doing that are over, as this year, the friday, saturday and sunday previous to Valentine's Day? I spent friday night cooking, saturday, pretty much sleeping while she watched TV with her sister, than we went out to dinner with her sister, spent today... sleeping, than an hour together while we watched the last 50 laps of the daytona bud shootout, and, than I spent the next 8 hours sleeping and watching a movie called Altered, while she spent the rest of the day downstairs watching TV.

as for TOMORROW....

Who knows? She'll be at work, I'll be at home, looking for jobs and such, than prolly cooking dinner. I really don't want to go out again, because, I'll look like the asshole I was describing above when people ask my GF what did your BF get your for VTines Day and shes like nothing.

I think the best part about being single on Vtines Day is that your not olbliged to try and DO anything for anyone, but, all Valentine's Day this year is doing is making me feel like a loser scumbag who shoulnd't have a GF.

So, heres a big THANK YOU to whatever asshole thought an UNPAID holiday like Valentine's Day was a good idea.... Thank you for making me feel like a complete piece of shit, even when I have NO reason too....
