Swinging Saturday
I got tomorrow off! (Slight pause while I do the Biff has tomorrow off dance. It is really to disgusting to describe but imagine if you will a cat trying to hock up a hairball--in a blender. Not pretty,) Ok I am back. Yeah I got tomorrow off and let's see if I actually get anything done. I desperately need to get a haircut. It is just a mish-mash of lengths and totally unmanagable. I need to go to the supermarket mainly for the reason that I need to go to the bank and get quarters and I also need soda. My sweet ambrosia. Yes I am additcted to the sticky brown substance of diet cola. I know with the Nutrasweet in it I am probably destroying my brain, but let's be honest here, I am not using it for much anyway. I also need coffee. Can you detect a caffine theme here? Also toilet paper; excuse me, bathroom tissue. When did one become the other I wonder? Then I need some random food, but I hate buying food. It just gets eaten. Ok, before you say, "But Biff you are supposed to eat food." Look at it this way: where I work they feed you. You can eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It is actually figured out as part of your pay in a complex equation that only accountants and lawyers that are spawned or eat accountants understand. So when I have to buy food I feel like I am wasting my money because I am just going to have to eat it. I hate eating and I love eating. Eating and me have a bad bad relationship. Eating is central to living. But one should not live to eat you eat to live. But that is so hard to do alot of the time because sometimes my eyes are bigger than my stomach and that, believe me, is hard. As Americans we have the bigger is better mentality and it is hard to shake that, especially when it comes to food. It also has to do with the fact that some of the best times I have ever had involve food. Dinners and family gatherings and holidays. It is easy to mark the times of the year not on a calander but on a dinner plate. Lord knows I have been trying not to. But it is hard so hard. So...does anyone know what time McDonalds closes? Just wondering. HaHaHa Actually I don't eat Micky D's food that often and I don't think that I will ever eat the fries again. Why? Well, if you ever rent DVD's get a copy of Supersize me. On the special features there is a section with the fries in it. Let's just put it this way--have you ever dropped a fry on the floor of you car? What happened to it? Did it look just the same after being there for months and months? Now you know why I have sworn off MD's fries specifically and am dubious about fries in general.
I do like Sublime though. Been listening to one of their compilation CD's in the office today. Good music for a Saturday afternoon. Got to keep it low though. They use the naughty language and adult themes--which I find quite enjoyable. Speaking of adult themes, on CNN they were going to have a report on G-rated films. From what I know of the topic it was that G films are making money and that has hollywood all a quiver. Well duh, they make money. It's a simple reason why: parents will use any excuse to get the screaming brats out of the house. Take it from me, no one wants to be home with their children. They use video's to keep the little rugrats entertained because unlike the old days you can't just send the kids outside to play. And don't give me the crap about kidnappers, you wanna know the biggest problem? There is no where for the kids to play because of the lawyers. You can't have playgrounds because of insurance. Empty lots now have razor wire around them so kids can't play there. Hell, in most suburbs now adays you can't even walk anywhere because nobody builds sidewalks anymore.Then we bitch that the kids are hyperactive and overweight...
Shit, I had to stop writing because it was time to go home. I totally lost my train of thought so I am going to end this rant right here. Sorry bout that, Laterzzz...
