The Monster in my Eye

New tagline for this blog... "Exploring myself, one rock at a time."

So, how are the rocks in your head today? Mine are clunking around up there. I think I almost was asked out today at work. I've never had a guy actually pursue me. It would be nice. Seems I am usually the one who starts things, arranges get togethers and such. It's not the same as having someone else do the work, the planning and the asking. It would be nice to be pursued. I'm not going to hold my breath. I will hold my breath many years from now, when it won't matter any more as far as having oxygen in my brain. Maybe, it will work, I'll finally get all those things I wasn't going to hold my breath for. That would be an interesting time in my life, if I could live to see it.

Can your eyeballs still function on some level once you are brain dead? There's a new horror movie in the making.

The best ideas for horror come from every day real things. We take so much for granted. Yes, the bus doors will open - the bus driver isn't about to fly off the handle and haul everyone around all day against their will. Yes, the coffee you make that morning is about the same as the coffee you made yesterday morning - there wasn't a stow away venomous spider hiding in the coffee beans. Yes, your eyeballs are still your same old eyeballs - an alien didn't drop down into your room last night and replace them with marbles or some other weird alien eyeballs. Horror and science fiction can just have so many endless spins put on a simple idea.

Day off tomorrow! Ha ha ha!!! *and more mad scientist evile laughter* Can't decide if I should sleep in first or go grocery shopping. Oh, the excitement!...

I did my laundry yesterday so I spoiled that part of my weekend of fun. Too bad. I will just have to get over it.

Next weekend is a pay cheque weekend. I may actually do something that involves wearing laundry (clean) and spending money on something less than practical. I could even go all out and give that guy at work my email address and the mention of going for a Rrrroll up the Rrrrim (coffee at Tim Hortons). See how that happens, the not being pursued thing? Is it because I'm just not patient? Perhaps. I do like to get started once I decide on something.

One last bit of babble.. I think the coffee I bought from Second Cup a couple of weeks ago is NOT french vanilla. It does not taste right at all. I had the caramel first so didn't start what should have been french vanilla until today. I don't like whatever it is I have instead of french vanilla. I think it might be one of those with a nut flavour. Now I have two bags of it, whatever it is. Kind of aggravating when it was not cheap AND the guy at the store made some major goof up and sold me twice the amount of coffee I asked for. I really doubt they would go for letting me return it for real french vanilla now. Look, there's another idea for a horror story. I'm just full of them today. Rocks and monsters, that's what I've got in my head.
