Meijer Babysitting Service

Every time I work in the gas station with Sonny and Cher (no their real names), I end up having to act as a baby sitter. These two people are seeing eachother. Now, if they were younger than me, I could understand this, however, they are both older than me (cher is a grandmother) I shouldn't have to be the mature one. However, I find that I end up having to parent these two as they fight through out the entire work shift. I had once asked to transfer to the gas station, now I really don't want to do that, as I really don't want to be a babysitter for these two every time that I have to work. I get along fine with everyone else though, so if I end up transfering out there for good, I'm going to have to ask for an ealier shift-- I can't handle those two in six to eight hour stretches.

Bitterness

yeah, I'm entering a pretty bitter period in my life-- it starts with work, and I'm able to contain it there, but then it starts to spread to the rest of my life. I've never been able to figure out the cause, as I'm pretty good at keeping my work life and my personal life seperate-- there's some over lap with people I interact with which I also interact with at work.

I know that part of it is that I've got people who say that they're my friends, but I never actually hang out with them. Those aren't friends, those are people I know. They tell me that they're busy-- but no one's busy 24/7. I'm tired of getting the short end of the stick, and its getting to the point where I begin cutting off the people in my life who take but never give. I can only give so much before I need to be refilled. It isn't fair to the people with whom I have an equal give and take relationship, because it will begin to affect how I treat them as well.

It's too hot

I've been without my air conditioning for a while, but I didn't really start to feel it until this past saturday. My fan just isn't doing the job. So I've put in to have the air conditioning fixed, as well as the toilet which has been running constantly for the last few months. Its not that I like my things to work less than pefectly well, its just that I learn to adapt to the changes, and then forget about it completely.

It's for this reason that I abdicate spanking. When my parents spanked me, there wasn't a re-occurance of the crime committed for quite some time. But when I was grounded, or had things taken away, I learned to live without television or video games. I loved reading when I was little, and I still do, my parents never took my books away, so I always had a way to pass the time. But spankings, those hurt, and that nice survival instinct given to us by God teaches us that such pain is bad, and therefore, avoid things that cause it.

My Secret Project

I've been working on a secret project which combined with work and Jessica has really sapped my time. (which is why I've rarely been posting)

anyway, I've finished the project, and you can view it here.

Its an anime music video, and lasts about 9 minutes. It speaks for itself, so I'm not really going to speak much about it here, other than to say that the quality isn't the greatest because I had to lower it in order to upload it.

Jesus Wasn't a Hippy!

Many Christians believe that Jesus had long hair, and that since he also preached loving God with all of yourself, and loving others as you love yourself, they call him a hippy. These people forget that Jesus was in favor of owning a sword (if you have no sword, sell your garment, and buy one [Luke 22:36]), and don't forget the temple where he trashed the place because people were being dishonest in the Lord's House. He even said: "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword." (Matthew 10:34) The men who had long hair were the Nazarites (Samson was one of these) they made a promise to God that they would do something, and a mark of that promise was letting their hair grow out until they accomplished it, which once accoplished they could cut their hair. Jesus was a Nazarene, not a Nazarite (He hadn't made such a promise), his hair would have been short. Had his hair been long, he would have been noticeable, and Judas would not have had to kiss him to mark him as Jesus.

Jesus was no hippy.

I thought I'd be happier by now . . .

Always before, whenever I've gotten drunk, I've been the happiest person on the earth. Not so much this time. I'm not sad or anything-- I'm just apathetic this time. I don't get it.

A Petition

Okay, I'm not really an American Idol[atry] fan. But I've heard Chris sing, and he's a lot better than the others. Tyler is still in because he appeals to the age 35+ women out there, and they don't want to lose him, he can't actually sing well. The chick is still in there because there's a whole lot of men that don't want to lose their eye-candy. The last guy, I don't know why he's still in it-- he just sucks . . .

anyway, go here to sign a petition to get Chris back onto the show.

Drink of the Day

okay, so I'm not sure why I didn't get this idea sooner, but to help me memorize my drinks for bartending, I'm going to post, from memory, an alcoholic drink. You're job is then to post in the comments, about the night that you tried this drink. If you haven't had it yet, then your assignment is to go out and procure the drink, and then report back in the comments-- or mention it on your own blog (make sure to trackback) At the end of the week, I'll post highlights.

Today's Drink:

Blue Motherfucker

1/2 oz. vodka
1/2 oz. gin
1/2 oz. light rum
1/2 oz. blue caracoa
1/2 oz. taquila
2 oz. Sweet and Sour Mix
fill with 7up
lemon wedge garnish

This is currently my favorite drink from the class that I've actually tried.
