I have a turkey in the freezer.
I bought it on Sunday, and I didnt at the time even know why I was buying a turkey, but I saw it and I put it in my cart.

Aw man, this has really got me. I totally dont know what to do.
I went through that realization last night that no matter how fucking heartbroken I am, no matter how devastated I am, I realize that the right thing to do is to not waver here. If she requests to see the dog, I need to maintain my right thing and just agree...

WOw, for the first time in MONTHS, I though maybe I should be stoned. Then I thought that I couldn't think of anyone I would like to be stoned with. That to be stoned with me again even though I have many friends that do smoke and offer it up, would be a gift. It's been one of those days-afternoons and nights.
I almost called you.
I wonder if being stoned on the phone would be the same? 
I almost called you.
I wonder if being stoned on the phone would be the same? I broke a couple of toes yesterday, and maybe even one of my metatarpals. Ouch. My foot looks fake, and I can't put my boot on.
Suckage.
Yesterday at the residence we were working at, I turned around in their living room and my first step brought my foot right into the corner of their heavy wooden foot stool. I heard a loud chicken bone...

metatarsal, not metatarpal.
Geez, my anatomy is getting rusty. (metaphorically and apparently real as well, Mr. Glass)
Just got back from the hospital. I really don't like hospitals, and I've been to that one many times over the years.
They simply confirmed what I thought in the first place.
"Yup, shore thang, looks like ya done broke yer toe and your metatarsal, not much we can do bout that though."
I pretty much knew there was nothing they could do, which is why I didn't even want to bother going in the first place.

Just reminding you about the Vancouver Christmas Party and wow, we have 70 people attending. 
Being conscious.
I never would have foreseen the amount of energy one needs to expend
To be conscious.
I never would have weaned the enemy in me
i hope I am a good influence on you sometimes.
i really really hope for me to be a bouy.
a bobbing signpost in the waves of the black void.
i'm not so vain to be a lighthouse...

Funny thing about wargames, the only way to win is to not play.
Is that from that Matthew Broderick movie of the same name?
You are indeed right. "smile and wave" not literally of course but inside. DO what you know is right for you. It'll either burn her up or she'll melt slowly. At least you won't be carrying around this resentment for her like your friend has for his ex and projecting it on others if you would have just walked away from it all at once. VERY wise Shaun, thanks for the outlook.

I don't think you want to be the one to see inside yourself
I don't think you want to understand that it clouds up your mind
I don't think you want to undermine
I don't think you want the bottom line
I don't think you want to see inside this god that you've created
No, you don't even listen
You don't even hear me...

Hey, it's still my birthday in my timezone. Hell, it's not even the time I was born yet (I came in (out?) just under the wire, at 11:58 pm).
And yet the poor boy comes back for more punishment-
*****: hey
Me: Hiya
*****: Your IM has been sent to my mobile device. When I receive it, I will be able to reply. Thanks for your IM! Want your IMs forwarded to your phone? Click here
*****: Its xk whats ur name
Me: I thought you were deleting me.
*****: Im on my cell
Me: Yes, I see that.
*****: Whats your name
Me: Tiffany
*****: Are u white and do u have a boyfriend?
Me: No, I don't have a boyfriend because I'm a dyke.
*****: Are u really?
Me: Yup.
*****: Damn too bad
10:10 PM
Me: I don't date rude bigots anyway.
*****: How am i a bigot?
Me: You asked if I was white.
*****: So? im racist because i asked that?
Me: If it was a deciding factor on whether or not you continued to talk to me, yeah. And if it wasn't, why would you ask it?
10:15 PM
*****: Because i know a white girl named tiffany and black girl and a mexican girl all named tiffany its very non cultural
Me: That still doesn't clear up why you would ask my race if it wasn't relevant, which I don't feel it was.
10:20 PM
*****: My friends are of all races and sexuality the only deciding factor is personality
*****: I was just curious im sorry
Me: But didn't you already decide that I was a bitch in our other conversation (not a label I take offense to), and decided to delete me? Unless bitchiness is a personality trait you enjoy.
*****: Your not a bitch your educated and sexy by that
Me: Ya know, you definitely won some points by deducing I am educated. You're not as ignorant as I first believed.

You know, when you live in an apartment building that only has TWO washing machines and two dryers and there's 40 suites, it's a nice thing to do to set a timer or something so you KNOW when your wash needs to go in the dryer, or your stuff needs to come out of the dryer. There is a countdown display on the front of...

That job sounds like science fiction, almost.
Kinda like you're making golems or soylent green.
I suppose to the animals that eat that shit, it would be soylent green.

reminds me of the kids in the hall skit with the fish processing guys, the one guy who stands there with his arms up to his elbows in dead fish and water, for 8 hours. Then, they automate the process. 
I read somewhere about what some pet food manufacturers put in their foods. Nasty.

look out, I'm outta control!
yeah, it's 7:50 pm, and I think I am going to go to bed.
I bought a bunch of painting supplies today. As in canvas, brushes, acrylics... Eventually going to make some sort of a mess of something.
I've never really painted before, so I have absolutely no idea what I am doing, but I am somewhat looking forward to...

okay, I'll let you in on where I get them. beliefnet.com Belief is a powerful thing and I am always interested in what anyone believes. I think Dr. Seuss was WAY ahead of his time. I seem to be reverting to childhood times, and your post yesterday started it. You're it.
You're it.

Just a reminder about the Christmas Vancouver Party on DEC.11
Day one I guess.
I woke up this morning with a little bit less wind in my sails than I had yesterday.
Yeah, in a way I do feel better now, now that I can honestly understand what's been behind all this crap, that understanding certainly filled a void in me that was quite painful.
Now I just have to keep remembering that I am...

Think about her seeing you with "bus girl". Of course she doesn't know the new you. Would the Shaun she knows/knew be walking down the street with another girl? She HAS to distance herself from what she thought was you to create anew for herself. Distance from the pain within. It's her choice to the know the new. Maybe all she can handle is knowing the new her.
I like this one better...

The quote was actually hindu wisdom, excerpted from the Tirukkural, translated by Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami.
I get such quotes delived to my mailbox everyday. I took it as people that can't find compassion for others, often forget that we are all not here for a long time, and at one time or another will need a little compassion bestowed on us. (They usually don't have compassion for, and are the last to laugh themselves) I do think we can all search for a meaning of our own in such a quote though, that's why I posted it.
I'd like to go about my day in a bunny suit once to see how paople reacted. I think MTV has a show now about that though. DAMN them.

Inertia.
Hmm, I seem to use that word relatively frequently, and always only in a single meaning of the word to me. I mean it by the way of not wanting to lose inertia. Like today:
two months ago, I thought it would be a good idea to completely re-arrange my living room. I thought I really needed to do that to jump start...
