mental meandering

So yes, I watch the show Cathouse on HBO about a brothel in Las Vegas. I think it's in Vegas. At any rate, on every episode Dennis, the owner, mentions at least 5 times that he can sleep with any of the women he employs and that he does...often. Then they'll inevitably cut to a shot of him rubbing up on the girls. I can't help but think "Way to go, guy! You can get hookers to have sex with you!!"

ouch.

i fell down the staircase this moring right after I woke up.

I hurt my hand.

I had just woken up from a night of bad dreams.

I still laughed my ass off, though.

I may be the only person whose day can be improved by taking a tumble down a set of stairs.

BLECH!!!!!!!

On my way home from an errand this morning, I pulled up to a stop light to see what can only be described as the grossest thing I have ever seen with my own two eyes.

The "gentleman" in the car next to me was holding what appeared to be a rag of some sort in his mouth. He then took the rag out of his mouth, wiped his nose with it and shoved the entire thing back into his mouth.

I think I may have lost my appetite...forever.

I'm not asking for opinions, please don't give them


Yes, I have a schoolgirl crush on Alton Brown of Good Eats. But what's not to love?

I'm not saying, I'm just saying.

something a little off

Something's a little off. Not wrong, just...off. I don't know what it's about. I'm pretty sure Bear doesn't know what it's about. But it's there nonetheless, just sort of lurking in the background, waiting for one of us to make a big deal out of it so that it can spread it's sickness.

This is troubling only because I don't know where it came from and because I really, really thought we were past this. I thought we'd done this whole routine and opted for a different one. Now it's completely possible that I'm imagining all of this and that Bear's sitting in his room, happy as clams. But I don't think so. I think he feels that something is off as well. Not bad, I reiterate, just off. There's like a...a discomfort that hasn't been there in quite some time. Man! I don't want this. I do not want this. We're better than this. Bear and I have been a strong and united front. We've been rad. We've been that couple you wanna be.

Ok, I'm fully aware that I am now overreacting. There's still a very small part of me that freaks a bit when the water ripples. Maybe he's just bored and a little grumpy and maybe I'm bored and a little grumpy. We'll see...
