Assorted thoughts

Watching CNN is probably eating away at my soul.

I ordered my subscription of The Sun yesterday. It's a good thing.

I received an amazon shipment yesterday. I was amazed at its speed. Amazon's free shipping has been very good to me. In came most of the volumes of the Sandman. Sweet. I also picked up a copy of volume I of the League of Extraordinary Gentleman.

Before I read them, however, I have some other things to do.

Work is still keeping me busy, but a little less so than previous weeks. I will wonder in today to take care of a few tasks.

Tonight, I see Stephen Hawking speak. Before that, Thai Food with Ms Tao and other friends. Yeah!

Errands:

-Call Mortage Company
-Take classical guitar to get restrung
-I think I need a vacation to reorganize my guest rooms and study.

It's a Fact

Ginger Beer is intense.

I dunno what I was thinking. Watching Dr. Phil can just piss me off. Well, this subject matter is a sore spot with me, anyway. The topic was infidelity. Let's review these delightful tortured souls, shall we? (Noooooooo, Annie! Don't do it!!!)

Loving Couple #1:
Hubby and Wife have problems in their marriage. Instead of addressing them, hubby runs off with an old high school girlfriend and has an affair for two and a half years. In addition, he has a child with this woman. His wife, a veteran of three miscarriages, is torn apart. The miracle in this is that she's still with the guy. The child is innocent throughout all of this, but the wife is torn apart because the child is a constant reminder of what she couldn't have, and furthermore, this means the mistress has to be linked to their lives in some fashion.

Caller #1: Wife is had a one month affair. She becomes pregnant. The Himstress bails out of the "relationship". Wife unsure who is the parent. (oooh, double dipping). Now she wants to find out whose child it is, but either way, she doesn't really want to tell her husband. Stupid Bitch.

Couple #2: Hubby and Wife are newlyweds. Yet the relationship is rocky. He has an email relationship with some other woman on the internet. She gets miffed, of course, because instead of dealing with the problems in the relationship with his wife, he talks to some other ho' on the net. Mr. Email Romeo is fortunate to have the same ears as Sloth from The Goonies. At least Prince Charles' ears are fairly symmetric.



Really, it is just tragic that people are waddling around the world with their heads up their asses, and since they've been doing it for so long, they don't even notice the bad smell.

How does one let themselves make decisions that lead to painfully stupid outcomes?

Furthermore, Dr. Phil is no rocket scientist. His comments, his observations are not astute. They are simple and obvious.

I just got confirmation from Zanadu comics. They might be one of the last people who have Volume III of the Sandman in stock. Now we'll see what condition it is in.

Now, off to pick up Ms Tao and head to Davis!


A night of physics and pad thai. All that's missing are hot dates in loin cloths, and all would be perfect. Of course, Ms. Tao and I don't have that. I think, at least in my case, it's bad karma for giving her a "Great Date Ken" (with unnaturally crispy hair and a boutineer!) for her birthday one year. It doomed us to being each other's great date ever since.
