yeah.... I try to take breaks but they never seem to last too long. guess I'm addicted.

dunno what to tell you about the pic thread. if I was in decent shape I'd probably have one, but I know it's not always that simple. people get worried that someone they know will come across their pics, etc.

I think of that, and other things, it also takes some time...have to find time to take them in private and what-not

yeah, I guess I never thought of that. might be kind of tricky, especially if you don't live alone.

I talked to a friend a couple of times about taking some pics of me... not sure why. we never got around to it, tho, and now I never see her. oh well....

Just checking in on you Sweetie

Just checking in on you Sweetie

howdy, ma'am.

last night was "fall back"... turn your clock back an hour. I think most people kind of look forward to it because they get to sleep an extra hour. I was looking forward to it, too, but it seemed like it just made the night drag. I woke up a couple of times thinking it would be almost time for me to get up and I still had hours to go. in the end I didn't wind up feeling any more rested than usual.

I know......went to bed at midnight - thinking "well, it's only 11 and I'm not that tired". And got up at 7 thinking - "well, it's 8 - guess I'd better get the day going". So where does that extra hour of sack time come in? And besides your pee schedule is all screwed up so you gotta get up anyway.

And besides your pee schedule is all screwed up so you gotta get up anyway.

that's one thing I am definitely not liking about getting older. it seems like I have to get up about every 90 minutes. how is someone supposed to rest when they're running laps to the bathroom all night long?!? *sigh*

Every 90 minutes? That settles it then - no more juice after supper for you Mister. Don't make me get your "special" night-night boxers out.

 

[mrtnmoon]

Don't make me get your "special" night-night boxers out.

ummm.... don't even joke like that. if I ever get to where I have to wear special underwear or a diaper, I'm checking out.

And don't you even joke like that......besides it's the wrong thread for that kinda talk anyway Check out time isn't until 11:00.

who says I'm joking?

ok, maybe wearing a diaper wouldn't be the straw that broke the camel's back, but I've thought a lot about this and I would rather be dead than be in the shape of some of the people I see where I work. like, if I could only eat pureed food, kill me.

 

[mrtnmoon]

some people see the glass as half full; some people see the glass as half empty. I look around and I think, "hey, I didn't even get a fucking glass!"

I've thought that before

 

[mrtnmoon]

wow... talk about deja vu. I'm really reliving some old times here. about 10 years ago I took some college classes... I did pretty well up until the time I had calculus and my first programming class at the same time, then it was like running into a brick wall at full speed.

instead of doing the logical thing and seeking help, I started to sink into depression because I wasn't smart enough to grasp the things being thrown at me.... as I got more and more behind and more and more depressed, I started skipping classes and hanging out at the computer lab, chatting online and playing games.

how am I reliving the past? well, here I am at the computer lab again, dicking around online and getting ready to play some games. oh yeah, and playing hooky from work. not feeling the depression, tho I am feeling a little lost. not sure why.

 

[mrtnmoon]

I kind of feel guilty for playing hooky now. when I got home from "work", I discovered that my bro had bought me an acoustic guitar. it's just a cheapie, but I haven't played in a very long time so it's good enough for my level of ability right now. I've been playing it off and on since about 4 pm, just trying to get a feel for it. it's amazing how things that came almost second nature at one time can be such a struggle now, and my fingertips is killing me. still.... it's nice to be picking again.

to that end, I'm taking requests... there was one lady here that gave me her phone number... maybe I could work up a song for you and call you and play it over the phone. you know who you were. these are the most likely candidates:

dim - dada
peaceful easy feeling - eagles
comfortable numb - pink floyd
wish you were here - pink floyd
where you're going - dada
867-5309- tommy tutone

just a word of warning.... my singing is even worse than my playing, but I'll do it anyway. PM me if you have a request. I'm also open to suggestions, but I can't guaranteee I can teach myself to play it

 

[mrtnmoon]

hmmm... it appears that I'm talking to myself. oh well, good enough for martin mull, good enough for me.

one day before "adventure: california dreaming" begins. I've been trying to not get freaked out about the flying thing, and have done ok for the most part. I mean, I'm nervous but not freking out yet. still, I can't help thinking at times, "what if something happens and I never make it back?"

to that end, even though it's going to cut into my cali cash and I'm not gonna tell mom why we're doing it, I'm gonna take mom and bro out for breakfast this morning. they keep advertising this place called ihop.... nothing fancy, but mom seems to like the idea of going there sometime. even tho she's diabetic she dearly loves her blueberry pancakes smothered in whipped cream and all that junk.

I found out where there's an ihop not terribly far away from here, so that's where we're going. personally, I'm not really a breakfast food person but I gotta say that the pumpkin and carrot cake pancakes they were pushing sounded kinda tasty.

You are not talking to yourself...there are those of us who lurk....

My dad used to love IHOP - he liked the Belgian Waffles best though - all the little holes held more syrup.
My grandpa used to mix his syrups - blueberry, maple, butter pecan.......it made me kinda nauseous but he liked it.
Personally, I just like the eggs and bacon and hashbrowns - maybe a pancake now and then but not a lot of syrup.

AND YES - tomorrow it is "wheels up" for you.
I hope you have a great time. I'll be thinking of you and jealous as hell that you will be enjoying some warm temperatures. Maybe getting your toes in the ocean too I hope.
In any case - try not to sweat the plane ride - I think you'll enjoy yourself. And you will be back - no worries.

I hope I have a great time, too. I think I will, for the most part. there are just things I think about, being the worrywart that I am. I mean, I'm a big guy and the world (and movie theaters, baseball stadiums and airplanes in particular) aren't designd for big guys. also, I'm venturing into the heart of the "thin is in" world. I try not to think about it, but I can't help it crossing my mind some.

I've already been told there would be some beach time involved. that's one of the big reasons I wanted to go. we lived in cali when I was a kid, but since we came back when I was 5 I don't really remember anything about it, except the time I got burned and the time I got my head stuck in the rails on the stairwell.

I am really looking forward to seeing the ocean. if I thought seeing lake michigan was amazing, this ought to be even more so. and hey, depending on the temp, maybe some hot asses in bikinis on the beach. you know I'll hate that.

 

[NorthernPA4U]

I've been really, really busy at work (blah) these days, but I did want to hop in here and wish you a great trip to California. I think you'll have a great time, and it's bound to be better weather than what you'd be experiencing at home this time of year.

Awww don't worry about all the "plastic" people out there. They are all just a cookie or two away from looking like the rest of us. Besides all those scrawny babes out there are probably hungry for a cutie like you with some meat for them to chew on. AND ANYWAY - I don't happen to think there is anything wrong with you.

Well hon, don't go sticking your head where it don't belong this time - ummm the one on your shoulders anyway.

Oh yeah, you would certainly look away if you saw any half nekkid beach bunnies playing volleyball. Try not to trip over your tongue.
I wanna hear all the details when you get back - unless you take pictures to share.
Have fun sweetie. You'll be in my thoughts.
