The Grinch is back in Town.....

or An Old Fogey Reminisces about the Good Old Days









Yeah, yeah, yeah. PBK is just whining along there about pre and post-ops and mocking me for not posting. well, it's because Grinchy me has just made its' annual appearance. A little late this year actually thanks to my new trick to maintain a semblance of sanity this season....The Grinch is Back in Town to the tune of Mack the Knife - is the background music of my life in this gruesome holiday season.

Oh, the Grinch has pretty teeth dear

And she shows em, pearly white

Just a jack knife has the Grinch dear

And she keeps it way out of sight

Didn't used to be like this. Used to like the holiday season once upon a time when it started AFTER Thanksgiving. Ahhh, the good ol' days. Damn whippersnappers these days don't have a clue how it used to be. Walmart Christmas commercials in early November, CVS and Giant getting their freaking christmas/holiday decorations and gewgaws out even before halloween. o

ooops. going off on a rant there.

Was thinking about the old days actually and how it was really about the treats we got, and by treats i mean special foods. The bowl of mixed nuts just for christmas. god, brazil nuts were just awful to try and get open. almonds used to go flying across the room and we were never allowed to use the walnut pick unsupervised as the parental units were quite aware of what other devious purposes we might utilize it for. And the stockings!!! Best part of christmas really. fresh grapefruits and oranges and tangerines were such a luxury....ooooh and the red delicious apples!!! i mean we had apples all the time from the orchard but red delicious! those were special apples.

Well damn, i just got all nostalgic and happy about the season. See? I did use to like it. but now? oh god, now i just hate and despise the season. Now it's more along the lines of
Everyone MUST be happy!!!! Everyone MUST have FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN !!!!!! Everyone has JUST got to be JOLLY GODDAMMIT!!!!!!

Kinda like vegas actually. It positively reeks of desperation. Must have fun, must have a good time, must laugh laugh laugh laugh, must consume consume buy buy buy!!!! If you like someone than go out and buy them a really expensive gift just so they know! Hell, even if you don't like someone go get them a gift to celebrate the freaking spirit of the season.


Ahhh, let me sing my little song in my head and i'll be better......The grinch is back in town baby...

Hey the line forms, on the right dear
Now that the Grinch is back in town
Youd better lock your doors, and call the law
Because the Grinch is back in town



TGO (the grinchy one)

pre op or post op?

so, where's the blog counterpart now? oh yeah, set it up....that's the easy part.

anyways, here's a first....for me at least. got bored and signed up with chemistry.com. ok, this is a bit too close to eharmony, that stupid dumbass company. every time I see the commercial, I just want to smack someone. so, chemistry "sends" you profiles they think you might find intersting. so, I am very curious how a transvestite ended up as one of my "potentials" that they send to me. so I emailed chemistry to ask: what was in my profile that made you people think I would be interested in dating a transvestite? I have nothing against trasvestites, but don't really want to have a "romantic" relationship with a transvestite either. haven't heard back from the chemistry people.

geez, it is me?! am I on crazy pills? just going to go out with random people on chemistry and at the end of coffee, dinner, whatever, going to ask them it they thought I was crazy, and what was the most annoying thing they found about me. what the hell, need some self evaluation.

ooo, just noticed that I can add video and pics. hee hee just wait.

fortunately i was not drinking anything when this hilarious little line was sung else i would have snorted it all over my screen.

bummer, no nookie with the ex and further revelations

geez, when an ex contacts you after 4 years (last time he emailed you "forgot" to respond), it can mean a few things....he's horny, he's bored to tears, he just broke up with someone. oh, and by the way, why do they always contact you in droves? once one ex breaks the seal, it seems they all start flooding back. anyways, it's such a bummer when one is no longer "into" the ex physically. would have been a good temporary one night distraction. predictable, no newness to overcome, and easily disposed of, since it's been so long there are no lingering feelings/issues. crap, why can't it be jake (names have been changed to protect the crazy)? now he's an ex i can totally get into. though the last time i saw him, the little shit was coming on to me when his fiance was 10 ft away...and i am the goody goody bleeding heart, so nope, couldn't go there. now he could have made for a happy holiday ending.  ok, so the other one who contacted me (will have to elaborate on the other entry "when life gives you crazy people.") haven't read the email, so not sure which one of him is contacting me...remember sybil? knock knock, can brad come out to play? no seriously, this was a case for a professional i think. anyways, stomach immediately seized up, as one never knows what to expect from crazy people. so, since i'm getting close to fitting back into my adorable wardrobe, i figure i won't read the email, but whenever i find myself getting hungry and/or craving some horrid food, i'll just look at my inbox and scroll to his email. my stomach will seize up and i won't fee like eating. hah, when life gives you crazy people, turn them into a diet aide.

oh, and the other revelation: men are crazy until proven not crazy. so not ever going to assume they're playing with a full deck!

When Life Gives you Crazy People

so, the old adage ...."when life gives you lemons...." well, the new question is: what does one make when life gives you crazy people? well, first off, of course one tells them to go sell crazy on the other side of the street. "when life gives you crazy people, make fun of them." well, that's one solution. it's usually pretty easy. though one does feel bad. i know i know! i'm a bleeding heart. 

i'm sure the other author of this blog will have plenty of interesting things to list for what to do when life give you crazy people, so we'll wait to hear on that one.

Why me?

seriously. technologically challenged. that's me. here i am trying to get this thing started and writing brilliantly witty but scathing indictments of the crazies out there passing as normals and of course forget to save them or post them. the brilliance is lost to the ages. either that or the drunken ramblings of the last sane person left in the world...okay, okay, that's a bit grandiose - how about this building? - were luckily sent off to the data heaven in the sky with no one the wiser. hmmmm, looking at it that way, ya'll just had a magic moment there and should be getting down on your knees and thanking whichever deity(ies) you choose that escaped that horror. seriously.

so now i will attempt to publish this thing works and go harass the partner in crime into actually DOING what he/she/its been babbling about doing for MONTHS now. slacker. sheeesh. he/she/it was supposed to be selecting a couple of "unique" photos so as to jazz up the site alittle....he/she/it's the technical genius of the bunch.
