Best and Worst Things I Saw at the Santa Rosa Farmer's Market:

Worst: The spastic lady who kept poking me in the back with her purse while waiting in the line for Thai food, then kept jumping in front of me to see if the food was running out, then actually cut in front of me because she thought they were about to run out...

We got a farmers market here too. Sometimes you can get some good deals.
thescarykid:
LOL. I feel you, man. I had some lady cut in front of me the other day. I recited the line before there was lines there was chaos or something from dogma. People don't catch on to "Wow, I'm such a douche!". Oh hey, I'm coming back to rosa on the 2nd with some homies. I talked about getting a beer over at Russian river brewery. Before I got back to socal you should join me, man.

Close Encounters of the Douchebag Kind:

This morning I went to my favorite cafe, and I'm sitting at an outside table, reading the paper, enjoying the atmosphere. It's a nice morning.

Then, a giant SUV pulls in, takes up a residential parking space (despite these being clearly labelled as such; but they don't have meters, you see). Two guys get out, one goes in to...

Listening to "Outlaw Country" on Sirius, while perusing SG: very weird experience.
mercie:
I lived in SoCal for a year... yeah, I know what you mean about the meth-families. Craziness, there. I would say crackheads are about the same... except, they're far, far dirtier. lol

I'm glad you took the time to read all that rambling!

FRIDAY COFFEE BOOB!

Flaming Lips at the Harmony Festival last night: Mindbending and pretty, with occasional death-squawks of guitar and synth-- just the way I like them. Plus giant rabbits and catfish and scantily clad chicks and lasers and confetti. There is no way not to love it.lovemiao!!loveoinklove
thescarykid:
Nice, man! I wanted to see them a couple months ago when they were in the area but all my friends sucked and didn't want to go.

Nice day. Productive: hiking, studying, cleaning, reading. Fun: meeting new people, lots of good conversation, kratom tea. Then the Giants come back from 4 down to win in 13. Good, good, good. biggrin

One of these days, I hope to answer the phone and hear the sounds of a dog chewing on the other end. Just a dog nomm-ing a phone. I would achieve nirvana. Who says I'm not a simple person?

Thank you for the thoughtful response on my blog.
Your quote was spot on.

A long time ago my dad handed me the Dale Carnegie book "How to Win Friends and Influence People" because, apparently, I was a huge bitch.

It took me a long time to work up the motivation to even read it. When I did it was extremely helpful. But I still have a lot of work to do, even if it has been years since I've taken the advice in that book.

It's a process.

And,

Happy birthday!

Agreed.

Memorial Day Weekend + Gloomy Weather = Desire for coffee and classic movies. A simple equation.

Believe me, I would love a moray eel. However, it would eat everything in this particular tank lol. I'm thinking about setting up another tank for aggressive. I'm thinking a snowflake eel and a dwarf lionfish would be fun to work with biggrin

I wonder if there are any meds that can, um, tone down the temper (and sadness) a lot, without too many side effects? Like a daily thing. I think the time has come to try it. I get riled waaay too easily. I wish it weren't true, but I must admit it is. Fuck, my dad was a scary dude, my grandpa was a scary...

Talking to a therapist seems like the place to start (your friends on meds can probably recomend one). smile

Your summer plans sound good, being healthy and outdoors always improves my attitude.

Anybody else notice all the short-haired blondes dominating SG right now? Is this some kind of sociological experiment?
eroticgeek:
I think it is a tend. I have not noticed just the short haired blondes, but short hair period. It seems to really popular right now. Some girls can pull off short hair, while others cant. Myself, I have a rounder face so if I go too short I look like I have chubby cheeks. Therefore, I prefer to keep it long. My boyfriend likes it longer too!
thescarykid:
I hear ya. Yeah, forgot the rose parade. I was in it one time back in 97. Rifle team or some stuff. Um, weather has been off and on. Nice then foul. So I'll got out and get a good ride in there. And right on for summer vacation. I'm jealous, man. Get paid all summer to chillax.
