You know...

I think I used to post here pretty regularly. I think I posted a lot of thinky things, things that went bump in the night of my mind. I think I quit posting because someone got the idea that my posts were worth notifying my wife to pay closer attention to what I posted. Frankly, I think that if I was going to tell Shannon something, I would tell her, and there is not need for a big mouthed busy body to take my ramblings and turn them into fight fodder. Except it's might be the need of the big mouthed busy body to appear to be more important than they truly are.

Tonight, I can't sleep. Well, that's not quite true. I fell asleep during part of "How to train your dragon", which is a shame because, although I didn't really like the animation style, I liked the show itself. There was some meat in it and I found myself rooting for the good guy. Besides, I thought his dragon, Toothless, was cool looking. And I thought I recognized that voice. Sounds like an early Christian Slater to my ears, but it isn't. It's the kid who starred with Nic Cage in "The Sorcerers Apprentice".

Dunno when I'll sleep again. it's a quarter till 3. I'll probably get there in the next half hour. I think it was the Rum. don't normally drink rum, because, I think, it causes insomnia and memory problems.

There was a Thanksgarbll at April and Chris' house yesterday. Didn't make it, but not for lack of wanting to. It was pure assed lack of get up and get out the doorness. This is also where I edit the post so that the busy body will feel less inclined to run her mouth. Unless it's about me editing my post, and then I can always claim it was a trap to prove that some folks should keep their mouths out of other people's business.

Pretty sure I'm going to be taking a bit more initiative in my world and not wait around for others so much. Does that sound wishy/washy passive aggressivly? Don't really care.

There are just some nights when having a space ship just big enough for one is just fine, just fine indeed.

*makes note to tell Shannon about the rum*

;)

I'm kidding, of course. I'm sorry you couldn't sleep, and I miss the postings. I miss my postings, too, actually. Perhaps 2013 will bring about more regular postings from me...we'll see. Perhaps my more frequent 2013 postings will including fighting-with-Shannon-fodder. She and I should exchange phone numbers in order for that to work, though.

And also, I wish you lived closer to KC, because we could work together to ignore chatty people at mingling sorts of events. We could even wear matching capes as we do that, if you wanted.

I think the cape idea is marvelous. And Shannon pretty much knows my gripes, I think. What bothers her is that she feels it drives other folks away.

Not the busybody here (which I think you already knew), but I will tell you that you and Shannon were missed last night. Could the "taking a bit more initiative in my world" please include joining us in activities other than just Pub Nights (which I like, but cannot often make during the school year)?

I haven't yet seen How To Train Your Dragon, and I think that may need to change.

[joegoda.livejournal.com]

Means that Yes, I'll be attending more than just Pub nights, with or without Shannon. You're not the busy body here, m'dear, which you already knew.

Don't worry about getting involved in stuff--You're already pretty involved in a bunch of stuff right now. Just take care of yourself. Your friends will always be here.

And rum can be evil. Stick to whiskey.

[joegoda.livejournal.com]

Yeah, dammit. Didn't have any whiskey.

[joegoda.livejournal.com]

Rum is frickin' evil!

[aoifemacewen.livejournal.com]

Yes the both of you were very much missed last night!

[joegoda.livejournal.com]

Wish we could have been there. Let's just say sometimes life takes turns you don't expect.

*Breaks apart my orange and gives you a few slices* (We're sitting on the porch steps, by the way, it's always good to know where you are sharing oranges and with who.)

I wish there were magic words for these situations that make them better but there often aren't. I'm sorry you are being put through this much turmoil and upheaval. I send my love and my sympathy.

Much love,
H.

Porch steps are excellent splaces for time and tide to pass, while eating oranges. Wasn't a mistype. It's a Carrolism. Don't be sorry, m'dear. They's what made me the madman that I am. Well, perhaps not those exact things, but my reaction is what made me the madman I am.
