Thanks to your actions, she has had to take down her Live Journal, and do some other countermeasures to prevent stalking by this foreign asshole. And asshole, if you read this, then know that if it has been me instead of my fiance, I would have not only thrown you out for your abuse of hospitality, but called the INS on your ass. PWNZT.

Current Frame of Mind: FUCK YOU TACO SLUT!!!!!
:Begin Politically Incorrect Rant:

Ok, so I live very close to Jamestown, NY, hometown of Lucy and Desi. Anyhow, there is this place there called Taco Hut. They advertise all of the time how great their food is and how they've been there for 32 years, blah, blah, blah. Anyhow, we go to eat there today, the place is packed tight. The decor was nice, the building looked nice, etc. Figures we end up there on the day of some rediculous school musical at the local theater. Anyways, the point is the place was packed full of annoying high school theater losers. Yapping. ALOT. LOUDLY. I SOOOOOOOO wanted take off my LL Bean hiking boot and throw it at this one particulary obnoxious and loud group of cackling girls. I swear to god a Boeing 747 at full throttle is quieter than they were. Next, it figures, we get the fattest, fugliest waitress in the whole damned resteraunt. I am sorry, but fat cows who resemble an unburned Freddy Krueger should not be allowed to wait tables. It should be a law. I want to look at pleasant decor, pleasant food, and pleasant people when I eat, not Free Willy on steroids (and sporting a mustache to boot). If I sound ignorant and cruel so far, it's because I feel like a rare case of the rant bug is upon me and it won't cease nor desist until I feel like it should so NYEAH! ANYHOW. Now we get to the drinks. I order a House Margarita right? Now, you would think that said House Margarita would actually contain alcohol right? Well, it did, but ABOUT ENOUGH TO FILL A SEWING THIMBLE! The rest was Margarita mix and ice slush! I was like "WTF IS THIS SHITE!!!???" They even had the nerve to charge me $4.50 for that damned thing :boggle: GRRRRRRR. I WANNA TASTE THE ALCOHOL IN MY MARGARITA DAMMIT!!! Now, we shall proceed to the food. The food. Where shall I start with the miserable slop they called an "Enchilada Revolution". Suffice it to say, it was two card-board tasting "corn tortillas" with a bunch of what resembled Alpo dog food stuffed inside of it, along with some VERY refried (to the point of being hard as rock) beans, some food-colored rice (Which was dry, and they used RED and YELLOW FOOD COLORING to make it ORANGE RICE!). Now, for the coup de grace. The restroom. The men's restroom was about the size of a small closet. It looked like it hadn't been remodeled in the 32 years that "resteraunt" was open. For crying out loud, they still used one of those ancient cloth towel dispenser thingies that you pulled on one end of the towel and it went around the loop in the dispenser to bring you out a "fresh" bit of towel right. I wouldn't touch it, I was afraid I'd get some New Yorker's nasty cooties. Talk about unsanitary. I am resolved to never, EVER eat at that slop shop ever again for the rest of my life. At least there's still La Habanera at the other side of town, where real illegal Mexican immigrants make real Mexican food. I don't understand a damned thing they say, but hell, AT LEAST THE MARGARITAS TASTE LIKE A MARGARITA SHOULD.

Current Frame of Mind: accomplished
The ring stats are as follows:

The band measures 1.47mm wide at the base, 7.6mm wide at the top and weighs 4.2 grams. 10% Iridium Platinum.

The ring centers a 4 prong oval faceted blue Ceylon sapphire measuring 7.54mm in length x 5.91mm in width x 4.61mm in depth weighing approximately 1.75 carats. The sapphire is accented on each side by an end set tapered baguette cut diamond each measuring 4mm in length x 1.7mm in width weighing an estimated total of .14 carats, of I color and VS/SI clarity.

The ring dates back to the 1920's at least. Not sure exactly which year it was made, as that is all the further we could trace the history. Also got her an amethyst ring dating back to the 1850's. We like antiques :)

The smile it puts on her face is worth far more than what I am paying for it :)

Now this pisses me off:

Sunday January 16, 5:13 PM

Villagers furious with Christian Missionaries

Samanthapettai, Jan 16 (ANI): Rage and fury has gripped this tsunami-hit tiny Hindu village in India's southern Tamil Nadu after a group of Christian missionaries allegedly refused them aid for not agreeing to follow their religion.

Samanthapettai, near the temple town of Madurai, faced near devastation on the December 26 when massive tidal waves wiped it clean of homes and lives.

Most of the 200 people here are homeless or displaced , battling to rebuild lives and locating lost family members besides facing risks of epidemic,disease and trauma.

Jubilant at seeing the relief trucks loaded with food, clothes and the much-needed medicines the villagers, many of who have not had a square meal in days, were shocked when the nuns asked them to convert before distributing biscuits and water.

Heated arguments broke out as the locals forcibly tried to stop the relief trucks from leaving. The missionaries, who rushed into their cars on seeing television reporters and the cameras refusing to comment on the incident and managed to leave the village.

Disappointed and shocked into disbelief the hapless villagers still await aid.

"Many NGOs (volunteer groups) are extending help to us but there in our village the NGO, which was till now helping us is now asking us to follow the Christian religion. We are staunch followers of Hindu religion and refused their request. And after that these people with their aid materials are leaving the village without distributing that to us," Rajni Kumar, a villager said.

The incident is an exception to concerted charity in a catastrophe that has left no one untouched.(ANI

I don't think I need to comment on this abuse, other than I am speechless with anger.

On second thought, I will comment. I hope this bunch of hypocrites gets eaten by tigers or bitten by cobras. Heartless, uncharitable bastards. And clueless Christians wonder why the world hates them so. Go figure that they are so quickly willing to violate the tenets of their own faith when they don't get their own way. Yeesh.

I have a crappy job.

It blows monkey dingleberries.

On the side, I hope my computer servicing stuff I do on the side picks up more business so I can quit said crappy job. To illustrate my point. I worked said crappy job 22 hours last week. I made less in that amount of time than I did fixing one single computer, which took me little time at all to fix.

Oh, my bitch of the week: Unions. Worthless organizations that take your money to line their own pockets while you get the sharp end of the stick up yer bum. I almost pay more in union dues per week than I get in hours. IE. I work 22 hours, I have to give up 9 of those hours to pay off the extortionists known as THE UNION. Nuff said.

My cousin lost her baby, for this I am saddened greatly.

I love my girlfriend very much.

I want to marry her.

She knows this.

It will happen (I want this more than anything I have ever wanted in my life, and that includes more than my dream computer system, more than wealth, more than a big house, more than a Ferarri).

Christmas shopping is the suck, especially when one is mostly broke. At least I got it finished. Spending Christmas with esmerelda001's family. Mine doesn't celebrate Christmas. Religious reasons. Not that the holiday means anything anymore. Degenerated into commercialized consumerist trash. Putting up the lights on the porch tomorrow (technically today since it is now 12:15am here). Life is well. I need another beer.

Figures that the 'demon' cat (Timothy Scissorpaws: Imagine an extremely um, "testy" cat who is NOT afraid to use his teeth and claws) loves me, and one of the 'nice' cats (Blaze, because he is all white with orange parts on his ears, head and tail, nicknamed "Chickencat") is so afraid of me he runs and hides at the opposite end of the apartment whenever I walk into the same room he is in. We also have Marcellus Wallace named after the Pulp Fiction character (and if you ever see him, you'll know why) and King Louis (so named because I find him very much like the French Sun-King, great cat, very entertaining). They both love me as well. Just problems with Chickencat. Going to attempt putting him into a cat carrier and forcing him to sit in the same room as me for 1/2 hr each day until he gets over his neurotic hangups. Plus it helps that I am keeper of all things catnip and cat-treat related :)

First of all, I've been busy, so here's my bit of catching up.

We had snow.

It's really cold.

I hate both the cold and the snow.

The newest game in the PC game series of Vampire the Masquerade is out! It's called Bloodlines. I'm downloading it right now. I suggest everyone get a copy because the first one kicked most ass. Anyone into Vampire the Masquerade will appreciate both Redemption and Bloodlines. The first game Redemption was great. It told the story of Christof, a Crudaser Knight given The Blood in medieval Prague. This next one I don't even know the story on yet, as I've been unable to locate specific details...hopefully the game manual will clue me in. w00t! Talk to you all again after I finish the game! w00t and double-w00t!

And the coolest thing of all, it was my hunny's birthday on the 12th. I bet she thinks I forgot. Pfft. Happy Birthday [info]esmerelda001!!!

Spent a wonderful weekend at Kent State/Stow in Ohio this past weekend. Lots of fun was had by all. We visited my girlfriend's brother and his family, got drunk, and handed out candy to the kids. We then proceeded to eat dinner and head on down to the uni commons as it were (the streets with all of the bars and alot of frats and student housing) to party it up with all of the other drunken revelers.

There must have been about 100 thousand people there. Young, old, college, townie, kids even...police in riot gear, firefighters, paramedics, biker gangs, etc. Lots and lots of folks all dressed up and running amok. Suffice it to say, there were LONG lines at the bars. Lots of half-naked women, half-naked men, scary costumes, funny costumes, annoying costumes, people stinking up the place with cigars...annoying Jesus Freaks and Hare Krishnas...you name it, it was there. Got extremely drunk on the terrible beer (Labatt's is NASTY) , as I was drinking 2 beers per every 1 beer the other people I was with were drinking because my girlfriend was designated driver sort of, so I got 9/10ths of every beer she got on top of my own. Yes indeedy, DRUNK WES.

Now for voting. I voted my concious today after an almost fiasco involving an absentee ballot that never arrived. Thank goodness they instituted Provisional Balloting here in PA or else I would have been FUCKED. So, while my vote will be among the last counted, I still got to cast my vote. I am anxiously awaiting the end count, because if Bush wins, I have a feeling we might be headed to Canada... Anyhow, all I can say this voting day, is vote your concious, not the party line, and don't ever take foregranted your right to vote.

Stolen from http://www.tonypierce.com/blog/bloggy.html

matt welch wants us to give an endorsement to a presidential candidate, but first i want to give credit to the republican party

who waved their hand in front of the face of america and said

you will forget about that prison in iraq

you will even forget the reasons we told you why we should go there.

you dont care about bush’s missing military records, you dont care that he was hiding out to avoid failing a drug test, you dont care that he was the slipperly little cunt thirty years ago that he is today

you dont care about the deficit, or that your kids - your little angels that you protect from janet jacksons nipple - will have to try to pay it off.

you dont care that the price of gasoline for a normal car has gone up $10 a tankful, not just 40 cents a gallon, as saying gasoline rose 40 cents a gallon is like saying the price of m&ms went up a penny an m.

you will just sit there and pretend that, seriously, bush can bring democracy and freedom to iraq, but has absolutely no influence on gasoline prices, and its just a really unlucky coincidence that gasoline prices jumped when he got in office and stayed up there and have only risen over the last few months of his term.

you dont care that we’re short two world trade centers, several thousand innocent americans, and the nerve to look saudi arabia directly in the eye and say hand over bin laden or else.

you dont care that there are fewer jobs today than four years ago

you dont care that they found no weapons of mass destruction, that iraq hadnt been making any for over a decade, or that waging war for no good reason is slightly worse than getting blown in the oval office

you dont care that the president is a retard, and a pussy, and a dumbass, and a bumblefuck

you dont care that the vice president knows less about the internet than he does about when he met john edwards, and not only do you not care that he tried to pull a constitutional cockblock on the most important lesbian in his life - his daughter - but you will be more outraged if kerry or edwards mentions the fact that she likes the ladies

you dont care that the president didnt want the 9/11 commision, you dont care that he tried to get kissinger to head it, you dont care that the president didnt want to testify under oath, or testify alone. you dont care that he tried to stop condi rice from testifying. you dont care that he was successful in keeping private his testimony, and you wont consider him a slippery little prick who obviously has something to hide.

you dont care that he read that goat book after learning that the nation was under attack, you dont care that by sitting in that classroom he was putting those kids at risk as a plane could have been headed at whereever the president was, you dont care that many will wish him re-elected because hes so fucking “strong” even though we all see what hes like under pressure and its so sad you almost want to feel sorry for him until you remember that he couldnt give a flying fuck about your lame ass because you dont belong to upper one percent and at this rate you never will

the fact that this race is even close is a testament to the republican party who took the pathetic mound of shit that they were handed and convinced everyone that it was gourmet free-range fertilizer absolutely necessary for a prosperous future.

theyve made scaring the public trendy and being a pussy ass bitch cool.

therefore im voting for nader, who hasnt flip flopped, has stayed the course, and no matter what you think couldnt do worse than the fucktard we’ve been patient with for the last four years.

Nice writeup except for the Nader part. I wouldn't vote for that whack-job if my life depended upon it :)

Oct. 22nd, 2004 @ 06:22 am Aussie sleepwalking sex case
CANBERRA, Australia (AP) -- A woman seduced and had sex with strangers while she slept and later had no recollection of her infidelities due to a sleeping disorder, her Sydney doctor has said.

The middle-aged woman had no idea that she was sneaking from her house at night in search of sex with random strangers until her partner awoke, discovered she was missing from the bedroom, and found her having sex with another man, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital sleep medicine physician Peter Buchanan told the Sydney Morning Herald.

Her partner was already aware that she was a sleep walker and also had been confounded by condoms he found strewn around the house, Buchanan said.

Buchanan will discuss the case when he lectures on sleep sex -- the disorder has yet to be given a formal title -- at the Annual Scientific Meeting of the Australasian Sleep Association in Sydney at the weekend.

"It is very complex, elaborated motor behaviour during sleep," Buchanan told Australian Broadcasting Corp. radio Thursday.

"People are often stunned and overwhelmed when they're told what they've been doing."

The partners and doctors of people suffering from the disorder often do not believe the acts were committed while they slept, he said.

"It's very stressful both for them, for their partner or for their relationship," Buchanan said. "It also promotes an intense sense of embarrassment on their part, their partner's behalf and this inhibits people coming forward to seek potentially helpful professional intervention."


Hmmm.... new excuse for cheaters everywhere! "Honey, I was having sleep-sex!"

Oct. 21st, 2004 @ 06:59 pm She Sickened Me With Science
NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) -- Your job may be crappy, but according to a report from "Popular Science" magazine, it's probably not as bad as being an Anal Wart Researcher.

The magazine's editors put Anal Wart Researcher at the top of their annual Worst Jobs in Science list. Research shows everyone has a 10 percent lifetime risk of contracting anal warts and the only way to detect the disease is to have a trained nurse "scrutinize your derriere."

In second place is Worm Parasitologist, who studies worm parasites, while third place goes to Lab-Animal Veterinarian because "most vets are tormented by the moral conundrum at the heart of animal testing."

Ranking number four on the list is Tampon Squeezer. They manually squeeze out the liquid of used tampons to recover specimens for sexually transmitted disease tests.

Finally, skipping to no. 9 is Tick Dragger. They drag a white corduroy sheet through a tick-ridden thicket and then tweeze off the bugs into jars for Lyme-disease research. The pay is marginally better than a burger flipper.

The complete list appears in the Oct. 19 issue.


God, I would HATE to have THOSE jobs. In fact, I'd rather be JOBLESS than have those jobs.

Current Frame of Mind: sore
  Well, I was laying in bed the other night with the ever-so-lovely [info]esmerelda001, when one of her cats decided to do a marathon run across the bed.  Needless to say, said cat's back claws pierced through the blankets I had over me and caused a puncture wound in my torso.  Of course with MY luck, the damned thing got infected and abscessed. I was left sick and delirious for the last few days.  I finally got dragged to the physician, and I got 2 shots, tetanus and antibiotic (which they also laced with painkillers, wheeeeeeee!!!), and put on some anti-biotic pill called Avelox (made by the Bayer Healthcare company). Well, it is starting to get better, I just have to CONSTANTLY clean out the wound (like, every 20-30 minutes or so). I feel a bit queasy after doing this, so yeah, makes for a miserable day and then sleeping is not so great either due to the pain. This thing is going to leave a rather nice hole/scar where it is once it heals.

  Alas, it's cleaning time, so off I go folks.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I finally moved and am at now settled in with my beloved esmerelda001. I am happy, happy, happy! She is so wonderful. Love her to death. Nice quiet town, mountains, rivers, lots of trees...no traffic jams, smog or annoying neighbours, wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!! She has 4 wonderful cats, each with their own personality. I love all 4 of them, especially Timothy. Tim is partially blind due to cataracts in his eyes, so he hisses at me alot when I move because he can't see me very well. Anyhow, Tim HATES strangers. Really, really hates them. So, I did what any person who loves cats does. I gave Tim space. I let him smell my shoes, some of my clothing, and tonight, for the first time, he came up and smelled me, after hissing at me of course. BUT, after he smelled me, he licked my hand, let me pet him, and nibbled on my fingers! You must understand, this cat does NOT let strangers even come near him without a fight and ALOT of hissing. This, to esmerelda001, was simply amazing, and apparently her secret indicator that I am a keeper -cough-. This was also good to hear, but it was an "I told you so" moment. I knew that Tim would warm up to me given time, and the fact that he did it in about 1 day, just goes to show how good I am with cats in general (hell, my favourite animal in the world is the Albino Siberian Tiger). Anyhow, just letting you all know I got here safely and that I am thrilled at being here. Talk to you all later.

Well, it brings a tear to my eye, but, I am saying au revoir to the computer that served me so well over the last 2 years. I'll see you all after I move, everyone be well. Megs, don't get blown away in a storm. Leanna, you need a hobby, and one that doesn't involve midget porn -hugs-. Marcus, get the fuck out of the Marine Corp and go get an art degree dammit, you're too talented to be wasting your life like that. Pres, get a girlfriend, and turn her to the Dark Side. Keelinea, you need a vacation, I suggest Hawaii. Esmerela001, see ya in a week baby! I love you!

Bye!

Current Frame of Mind: stressed
Background Noise: Tool - Lateralus
The Good:  I am soon going to be moving in with my hunny! YAAAAAAAAAAY!!! I can't wait! I love her soooooo much and I really miss her! She keeps thinking that I will flee the moment I see how crappy the town is she lives in. She needs to realize, that I love her, and the setting could be a Peruvian jungle clearing for all that I care, I would still want to be by her side no matter what.

The Bad: I will soon be without a computer. Yes, you heard me right. My brother is returning to school starting in January, and I promised him this old bucket of bolts to use while he is there. So, come Wednesday, I will have no more computer, as he is driving down here to pick it up. This means I will be without internet contact for the most part until I move in with my girlfriend in a week.

The Ugly: I am going to have such fucking internet withdrawals it's not even funny. Thank god everything on my computer is easily replaced. It's just mainly games and crap. No life sustaining or job related applications or files here.

Not really much to write. Just basically counting down the days until I go see esmerelda001 for a week. Being apart from her is THE SUCK. After that then it's move-in time. And that my friends, can NOT come soon enough!!

LEANNA: Get on AIM or YIM once or the PIKACHU GETS IT!!!!

But yeah, same boring shit, different day. The highlight of each and every day though is being able to talk to my sweet baby. Even though I've been sick the past few days, she's been there to support me when I needed it. I love you [info]esmerelda001!

  I can't tell you guys enough how much I love this blog. It's owned and maintained by a fine upstanding citizen named Les Jenkins. I don't always agree with what he or others say on his site, but I do agree with enough to fully enjoy reading and participating in his blog and forum. And for a further shameless plug:
http://stupidevilbastard.com/index/seb/comments/spread_firefox_igniting_the_web/

  And for another shameless plug... Mozilla Firefox, the best internet browser available. It's free, it's Open Source, it's what TRUE computer literate people use when on their Windows-based box. In other words, it's the L33T H4X0R5 in that script-kiddie speak. Version 1.0 PR is now available for download here (direct download link): http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/download.html?http%3A//ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/0.10/Firefox%20Setup%201.0PR.exe

  I can't stress enough how much I love this browser. It has a built-in popup blocker, and you can fully customize it to your heart's content, with extensions, themes and all sorts of arcane settings for those of us who are truly bold and don't mind tweaking the hell out of our systems to get the best performance possible. They even have a Live Journal extension, called Deepest Sender! It's almost like the ones you can download from Live Journal, only this one is a browser plugin for Firefox! I use it to do almost all of my Live Journal updates, and it is a fully customizable Live Journal interface. Firefox also has a built-in RSS feeder in the latest version, so you can grab the latest feeds from your favourite blogs or newsgroups, and their email client, Thunderbird, integrates seamlessly into the browser.

Ok, enough shameless blog and product promotion. Enjoy!

Sep. 19th, 2004 @ 12:28 am Good movies...
  Movie round-up for this week: Secret Window, Equillibrium, Ghost Ship, The Punisher and Azumi. I enjoyed all of them, especially Secret Window and Equillibrium. Ghost Ship was also a good creepy flick. So, [info]esmerelda001 and I will definately be having some good sit down on the couch and snuggle time when I get up there.

  And yes, it has been one week since my sizzling date with her, and I love and miss her, MUCH. She is everything that completes me. All that I could have ever and did ever want in someone, I have found in her. I am simply amazed at how it all fell into place. The details of which I shall not bore you with here.

  When I think of her, the song Susanne by Weezer pops into my head. I mean that isn't her name or anything, but the lyrics bear a striking resemblance to how I feel and things that are happening or have happened.

  Oh yes, I am voting for John Kerry. I just don't think Bush has done enough to help schools, and since my love is a teacher, I am willing to finally hop off of the political fence and vote for the person I think will help schools more. He may waffle alot and other questionable things, but then we have Bush, who  is an outright liar and sends our men and women off to die for oil profits. Plus I think Kerry is going to have a far better impact on our environment and trade agreements than Bush, who has done nothing but help Corporate America at the cost of Humanity and Mother Nature.

  Like I've said alot lately, all you have to do to find weapons of mass destruction is look to Bush, Cheney and the Halliburtons and Enrons.

Background Noise: Rancid - Ruby Soho
  Had my date this weekend with the very lovely [info]esmerelda001. Fireworks exploded and sparks flew is about the best way to describe it (or in our little inside joke...a hurricane hit). I am madly in love with her (as she already knew, but I am just saying it for the benefit of you folks), and I can't wait until the next time I get to see her. Hopefully that will happen here in October. Her time here was short, and I miss her terribly, but knowing that my feelings for her are definately reciprocated is a wonderful feeling :)

  Now she gets to brag to all of her friends about me ;)

  To be honest, I haven't felt this alive in years. And what makes it even better, is that when I was with her, it was the first time I felt at peace in my entire life. The kind of peace you only hear of happening on rare occasions. There was no more emptiness inside of me, no more pain. Everything was and felt right. Everything with her is so, so different from anything I ever had in the past. I feel closer to her than anyone else. She understands me, and I her. There is just something there ya know?

  Not your ordinary oh I like this person become their girlfriend/boyfriend spiel. This was more real, more intense.... I know all about the normal dating crap, and wanted nothing more to do with it...It seems now I have finally found the right person for me. Soul mates? I think so. Too many things have happened to convince me otherwise...too many details...so many things we closely mesh on.

  Well, enough of my incessant rambling for now. Just wanted to give you all an update and to say hi to all of my friends out there :)

I am a huge fan of the blog Stupid Evil Bastard (http://www.stupidevilbastard.com), and I was very deeply disturbed, but no surprised in the least bit about something posted there concerning the bully tactics and outright criminal behaviour of the Bush Administration.

  Sitting here contemplating my life and I realize a few things. For one, I really should go back to school and get my Master's. But I keep putting it off, because I detest institutions of higher-paid slavery. I mean I really should though, go get a Master's in Computer Sciences or something. I have the talent for it, as I can freaking tear apart a computer and put it back together blindfolded. Not only that, but I had a 3.5 GPA in that crap the last time I went to school. I dunno. Either that or go get a Culinary degree from someplace, because that is my other joy. Cooking. I love to cook, and I love computers. Until recently, I loved my computer more than anyone or anything else in the world. Then I met someone very special to me. Someone who I feel completes me in every way. We share the same thoughts even, as it is quite common for us to say the same thing at the same time, finish eachother's sentences and other such things. We even mud together. Go figure... But like they say...the couple who can play together can stay together...so to borrow her favourite phrase...we'll see.

  Another thing I realize, is exactly how much of my life I wasted being alone. Alone and hating alot of people. But, I am a foolish mortal, Sith Lord or not. So I am bound to do foolish things at times. My only regret is not grasping an opportunity when it first arose a few years ago. Instead it was two ships passing eachother in the dark of night... Hopefully that is not the case this time around. I fully intend to make the most of this opportunity, as it is not often one gets a second chance in life, let alone a chance at being truly happy and at peace. And knowing my luck, this is the last chance I'll ever get...

  I am a firm believer in the fact that there are always a deeper meaning to things...thoughts, dreams, situations, words spoken, songs, etc, than what appears to be on the surface.  Sometimes I think I feel too deeply and think too much. Mayhaps I do. Or maybe I just have a strong connection to the ebb and flow of things in the world. I really don't know how to explain it. But, if you ever have read Nietzche, Wilde, Thoreau, Plato, Socrates, Voltaire, Roubelairde or others, you may start to have an inkling about what I am babbling about. No wonder they sent me to college level reading and writing classes when I was still in elementary school.

  Ok, enough yapping for now. Have a good morning/afternoon/evening/night.
