What Are You Thinking? Continued 14

Vodka makes me think I'm hilarious

Well, it would know, wouldn't it?!

 

[NakedStoryLover]

In direct violation of Chloe's post above: it is already too hot*. I MUST get naked tonight


*possible caveat: I may be too hot because I'm browsing this lovely filth, rather than reading my book. Still. Naked.

Edit to correct browsing, not growing

 

[NakedStoryLover]

I fucking hate the autocorrect on this thing (my tablet)

This laundry is so not getting put away tonight.

You got the giant laundry basket!!

I once got a standing ovation at a karaoke bar. When I stopped singing.

Every so often waves of sadness wash through me. Maybe I’m just tired. Disillusion.

The clouds were thin enough to allow a glimpse of moonlight..maybe I'll see the sun for the first time in days tomorrow. I've missed it.

 

[AtramentousRex]

I like the little head trips that the music and the meds can take me on, I admit.

Yes, that indicates you should sing another!!

I’ve “done” karaoke twice, once with my mother and once with friends. Both times, my duet partners chickened out.

One of the songs was Like A Virgin.

Lovely, lovely memories.

 

[StillRain]

It’s nice to see @cheekygirl75 about.

Wondering what tequila does?

Duh....
It makes clothes fall off....

I was hoping that song was true.

Lovely, lovely memories.

I’ve done karaoke dozens of times and I can’t sing for shit. Karaokes not about talent. Motherfuckers want a show, buy a ticket. Karaokes about passion and performance and loving music. It rules.

But also, private karaoke bars with friends are the best.

I wonder if I’ll be sucking his dick today

 

[Brave Maximus]

I'm really good at pushing people away. Olympic level, medal placing...

How do you attend an in house training for medication and forget to assign someone to give your resident medication?

I suspect I've made the right choice in leaving this job.

 

[LostHorizon]

No amount of coffee is getting the trick done this morning

 

[LupineOne]

Oh I don’t wanna today. Can we just not?

I’ve been thinking about my ex’s grandmother who was slipping further into dementia near the end of our relationship.

Her and I were unexpectedly close and for whatever reason, when she began showing signs of animosity and trepidation, she found comfort in my company.

I was young, but even then I had the wits about me to step into her world, rather than try to force her into mine. If she wanted breakfast at 8pm, we had breakfast. If she suddenly believed her husband would be home at 5pm, well yes, Nanny, he will be. Let’s go sit outside and chat and watch the sunset like you used to do with your sister, I can be her for awhile.

Thinking about her now, I hope she has someone to be her sister, her friend, her daughter. I hope she’s ok.

That was beautiful, you have a wonderful heart.

Thanks to the one litster who verified my suspicions. I very much appreciate honesty. Even if it my self confidence takes a hard hit.

Finally started listening to Lord of the Rings read by Andy Serkis (movie Gollum) earlier this week and it is a revelation! I usually prefer to read with my eyes, unless there’s an exceptional voice. Serkis has that benefit and more! JRRT’s historical and genealogical tangents are so much better when read by him. As much as I love the movies, and particularly the extended editions, I admit the book was a bit of a slog for me, and I normally love reading. I see Tolkien as more of a world-builder than a storyteller, and Jackson did an amazing job of bringing that world to the screen without bogging us down with convoluted details. Apparently Serkis is much more adept making the details conversational than the voice reading in my head. Or maybe it’s just more enjoyable when I can zone in and out instead of having to reread a half-page sentence 3 times to process it? Either way, it’s nice to hear the details in a more passive way without feeling like I’m having to study and memorize every detail.

I am rereading the Fellowship again. And I can't help but wonder, does every hill or mountain have a shoulder? Everywhere they go, the landscape is described as having a shoulder of a hill, or a mountain. I never realized how much time he spent describing the landscape and less time focused on the characters. I love the story, btw.

I should have listened to myself when I was thinking I should have emptied out my UK post box weeks ago. Now I’m all confused and probably going to owe money when I receive it
