Again, it has been a while since I’ve last blogged. Why? I have no interest to do so. Might be disappointing for some, I know. Sure there are stories I could share and funnies I could post but when I get home, the last thing I think of is to spend an hour or so thinking of what to write, how to write it, etc. I just want to unwind and enjoy the rest of my day.
That being said, this blog post does have a purpose and it is not about the reason to why I don’t post anymore. This post is mainly to vent yet again on a Pet Peeve of mine: People using cell phones while a movie is playing at the theater.
Nothing gets my blood boiling as much as this for some reason. I know it’s a silly thing to get all worked up about but I just can’t help it. NO ONE is important enough to be picking up their cell phone to text or otherwise while a movie is playing. It’s clearly posted outside of a theater to please turn off your cell phone and that anyone caught using it will be removed without exception.
Are you waiting for an important call or text and are in the theater to waste some time? SIT IN THE LAST FUCKING ROW OF THE THEATER AS TO MINIMIZE THE ANNOYANCE OF A BRIGHT FUCKING SCREEN DRAWING PEOPLES ATTENTION TO YOU. Also, you could always just be polite and step out to answer the text or call. Hopefully your phone is on vibrate for this.
Checking the time on your cell phone? The movie is going to be over when it’s going to be over regardless of how many times you check to see what time it is. I’ve caught a few friends doing this even after I have mentioned to them that I dislike it when people use cell phones in theaters. They have all disappointed me greatly.
One particular friend turned his phone on in front of me just because he noticed that an hour or so into the movie, no one had used their cell phone. He got a swift kick in the balls after the movie was over for this.
I could go on and on about more specifics but that will just get me thinking about it even more so I will just end it here.
I apologize for grammar and whatever punctuation mistakes I have made.
Have a nice weekend, y’all.

Don't call it a come back.
I have wanted to blog for the past three months but I really haven't had much inspiration to do so. Not much of anything has been going on in my life that I felt was worth blogging about. I've been busy with work and school and when I do get free time, I tend to squander all of it away. I haven't felt like playing games either which is a bit weird. It's not that I don't want to play, I just make excuses not to for some reason.
I've been sitting here, in front of my laptop for 15 minutes thinking about a subject to blog about aside for my reasons whhy I haven't blogged but nothing has come to mind.
Okay, here is some random information about yours truly that happened in the last three months:
- I've insulated both of my windows since both of them leak air really bad. During January, my room was as cold as ice even with the insulation. I like it being really cold in there but I have tried to keep it warm so my Sophie kitty won't catch a cold or anything. I'll be glad when Spring finally comes and I can open up the blinds for her.
- Ever since I moved in to my new place, I never bothered to alphabetize my movie collection. I finally alphabetized it and I am glad I did. I even took out the movies that I have double dipped on (cuz I got them on Bluray).
- I fixed my Rockband guitar. I broke the whammy bar on it. A friend had one he broke as well and I asked him if I could use it for spare parts. He let me have it which was really nice of him. It was fun fixing it and looking at all the components inside the guitar.
- I have been thoroughly cleaning my place every week since I normally don't have much to do on weekends but hang out with my kitty and homework.
- I saved a bunch of money by switching to Geico. Not really, just joking on that one
- Someone crashed into my car while it was parked. Second time this has happened.
- I got to spend a good amount of time with this super adorable 2-year-old (sorry for my betrayal N.W.). Great kid. He got me thinking of starting to actively look for that special lady instead of leaving it to chance. The male version of the baby clock ticking I guess.
- Did my taxes.
- I guess I had more to share than I had originally thought. ^_^*
Until next time.
Love, Peace, and Chicken Grease.

Mm, Caramel Frappuccino
Warning: Before you continue, know that this post involves the smell of a certain bodily secretion smell being enhanced by drinking a Caramel Frappuccino.
If you read the warning and continue to read this, there might be something wrong with you. All pleasantries aside, let me get to my point.
I noticed that EVERY time I drink a Caramel Frappuccino from Starbucks, my urine starts smelling like it after three hours. I don't know how or why but it does. I can't say that has ever happened to me when I have had hot coffee and whether or not it happens to people that drink a lot of coffee (I normally only drink a Frappuccino once a month) but it happens.
Does it make me a sick individual when I say that I rather enjoy the smell of my urine when I drink a Frappuccino? Does it make me even more sick that I thought if I ever get stranded in a desert after having had a frappuccino that I would not hesitate to drink me pee to keep hydrated?
I don' know why i felt like sharing that but I did.
I apologize if I made you vomit in your mouth a little just now. Not really, its what I was going for ^_^*.

Karma is a beotch!
This soooooooo made my Thanksgiving and I would like to share with all...one of you.
On Thursday, My place of work had a sale of 50% off select videogames. When I got there at 5AM (an hour before the sale started), there was about 70 people waiting in line for videogames alone. I had never seen such a turnout on Thanksgiving and I was also a little scared since I and a fellow co-worker were to be manning the game cases.
When it came time to start handing people the games they wanted, I was pleasantly surprised that everyone was really cool about having to wait X amount of hours just so they could get 2 or so games for half off.
As the line dwindled, a rather greedy lady asked if she could get multiple copies of a game. I wanted to tell her to stop thinking like a greedy douche but I bit my tongue and said only one. A lady, 2 guests back, had a copy of the ad with her and pointed out that it didnt say anything about not being able to grab multiple copies of a single games, just that there was a limit of 4.
Wanting to avoid argument, I agreed with her and let the lady in front have 2 copies of the game she wanted. The lady after her also requested 2 copies of the same game. This brings me to the guest that pointed out that you should be able to grab multiple copies of a game. Thanks to her not keeping her mouth shut, the 2 ladies in front of her grabbed the last 4 copies of the game she wanted leaving her shit out of luck for pointing something out and wanting to be a greedy douche.
She realized her stupidity after I told her the two ladies in front of her grabbed the last 4 copies of the game she wanted. The lady then asked both ladies if either of them would be willing to surrender one of their copies and both the ladies just looked at her and laughed. I was able to contain my laughter but thanks to that lady, I had the biggest smile on my face for the rest of the day.
This proves that working retail, as shitty as it can be sometimes, has it's huge perks when situations like this happen.

ZZ Top update
I will start this off by saying that I don't think I will ever be able to finish one of my "let my beard grow out as long as i can" challenges.
As you may have guessed, the itching/no feeling sensation got to me after 3 days and I shaved off the beard. It was a good thing too. I started looking like a hobo and a very dirty one at that. I also start getting ingrown hairs on my face that I didn't notice until they turn nasty and gross. I think I will stick to week-or-less-stuble or clean shaven from now on.
I apologize but I didn't take any pictures. Not only because I don't really care about taking pictures of myself but because I didnt want to take a myspace shot of myself.

Gettin' my ZZ Top on
I don't know what was running through my head when I was thinking this but on the 7th of this month, I decided that I was going to grow out my beard until the day after Christmas. There's no rhyme or reason, I just felt like giving myself a challenge.
I have tried letting my beard grow out for a month many times before but I always end up shaving it on the third week.
Third week is always the worse for me since that's when my face starts becoming all itchy. Soon after the itchiness goes away, I seem to not be able to feel any sensation on the skin under the beard. I assume if I am finally able to deal with not being able to feel anything on the skin under my beard that I will finally be able to complete one of my beard challenges. I am going for a record this time (personal record anyways) and I hope I am able to stick with it.
Lot of people are telling me I should shave it off already because they think I look better without facial hair. This challenge of mine is not meant to attract any ladies which is why I choose not to care what everyone says. Personally, I enjoy having some stubble on my face regardless of what others think.

Pain
I played a game called Wallyball last week. Think of it like volleyball in a closed room and you can use the walls to bounce the ball from. It's a very fun game and I can't wait till I play again...that is, after I recover from my injury.
I messed up my right shoulder returning a serve and now I get a sharp pain on my shoulder when I move my arm a certain way. Good news is that I don't think it's anything serious since I feel less and less pain as the days pass. We were suppose to play again this but I told them I wanted to rest my shoulder till I am all better. It's sad because I really wanted to play.
I did learn something from injuring myself and playing though. First thing I learned is that is you haven't been active for a good while, make sure to take it easy and don't do whatever activity it is your going to do for too long. Why, you ask? Because your ENTIRE body will be sore for the next three days.
I hurt so bad that I looked liked a had just crapped my pants anytime I went up or down stairs. Second thing I learned is to make sure to stretch before playing anything as physically demanding as Wallyball. I am sure if I would have stretched, I wouldn't be having problems with the shoulder.
You live and you learn, I guess.
I apologize for any errors encountered on the post. I did all the typing on my phone and proof reading on a small screen is a beotch. I will correct if need be or if I am told I aintz done made sense.
