To Ohio And West

My mother's gerbils were not being very nice. They were fighting and biting and making each other bloody, so my mother had to separate them. My mother found an old container that was once used to store dried cat food. It was labeled "CAT FOOD" in big letters.

My mother took the container and punched holes in the top and made a new home for the black gerbil who was being especially bad... yeah, no windows or sunlight. My mother was keeping the gerbils in the bathroom because they were keeping my sister awake or something. Then my mother moved the gerbils back into her bedroom when my sister went back to Columbus.

She left the cat food container in the bathroom, It was kind of ironic. The container was labeled "CAT FOOD" and you would open the container and find a gerbil running around inside. I think by now my mother got a new gerbil cage and a new gerbil and now two gerbils have one cage and two gerbils have another cage and everything is okay.

I can just imagine the gerbil in the cat food.
"Here kitty kitty kitty!"
"Meow Meow"
"Keech Keech Keech! Kraaaaaaaaaaaaghahahakkk!!!!
"But it said it was "cat food!"

The sun rises.
A new day will suck like others.
I sleep 'til noon!

Yeah... My parents went on vacation to Santa Fe New Mexico. While they were away, I tried installing a garage door opener. We're like the only family in the whole district that doesn't have one... or didn't have one. Yeah, my mother always seems to have a cow when anybody tries to start a new project or wants to spend any money on anything.

Well, I thought I could get the garage door opener knocked out in a couple of days or something... Man, that thing took forever. I could not figure it out worth jack, and my garage had unusual tolerances to work with. Well, it finally works now... but not after I got some wires reversed and broke one of the pulleys...

We were waiting in traffic the other day. Now my middle sister, well the older one, she's always looking for hidden messages in license plates. Sometimes my youngest sister joins in. I think my oldest sister's boyfriend was driving. We passed up this faded and rather unattractive red car and it looked like there were two lesbians riding up front.

The license plate said, "DUM34SS" It really did. Maybe it was more like "DUM 34SS"... My memory isn't always that great. I guess those two grumpy middle aged ladies didn't like being tailgated or something. Is anybody else as slow as I am to figure out what the two lesbians were probably trying to tell people....?!?

Back when I was working as an extra pair of hands in a remodeling business, I had a coworker. Yeah. This must have been more than 10 years ago by now. Well, this coworker of mine, he didn't like people, and he didn't like parties, and he didn't drink all that much alcohol. He had a family and a teenaged daughter. I'm not sure he liked them all that much either.

I had a dream several months ago. It was strange. Me and aj_roo had somehow decided we were going to try and help people as Emergency Medical Technicians. We were somehow in this school building that wasn't creepy or anything but it was devoid of color... just different shades of blue with a little bit of gray... and we ourselves were shades of blue.

That'll get you in the halloween spirit! You'd think some people would have better morals than THAT! Happy Halloween to the neighborhood! Right in time for Halloween Night! The crazy part is the road I usually take to get downtown is only about 10 blocks away from there!

Really! It's the thought of having to deal with crazy, stupid ass shit like that, which makes me think twice about finishing my paramedic and trying to help people in dire need. Really, when you see nasty, senseless shit, it stays with you a long time. Thank-
God I wasn't there!

Nothing much new to talk about. Just been playing the household handyman and the household maid while my mom and dad somehow try and sort through all their emotional crap... Yes, I'm STILL painting the outside of our house and I'm not finished yet! Our house is biiiiiig! Well, it's not a mansion but it's still pretty big... So far I managed to put my halloween lights up two weeks ago and their still up and running for halloween.

Well, Ms. Piggy, my gold fish and her sidekick Kermit the gold fish have eaten through their second thing of fish food this week. Yeah, back in July, we had a tropical storm and the three day long power failure killed all my blind cave fish... and some of my zebra fish.

My mother tried to make it up to me by buying some fancy goldfish which have since become just huge. When my mom got them, the goldfish were kind of cute.... now they're more or less just big anymore.... My catfish are still alive as are my zebra fishies.... but the water is so dirty and disgusting, I can't see anything except the silhouette of Ms. Piggy the goldfish looking for more food.... so she can get even bigger and make the water even dirtier... and I'm out of fish food....

If I don't give her her food right away, Ms. Piggy the goldfish starts spitting water out of the fish tank and then it splatters all over the floor and I have to clean it up, so I have to get her food to her promptly....

I do admit I do have some kind of a bond with my two fantail goldfish.... On the other hand, my fish tank was so pretty before Ms. Piggy came along and made it one great big brown disaster.... I've really tried everything to fix that water.... There's just too much fish in the tank now.... and now I'm out of fish food.... AGAIN!

Yeah, as if I don't have enough to complicate my life, I now have a really nasty cold... It also doesn't help that my father is out of the country and me and my mother don't communicate so good.

This video clip is from the Disney movie "Bolt!" Bolt is a dog. Bolt is an actor, although at the beginning of the movie he thinks he isn't acting. He thinks the T.V. show he's acting in is real. In other words, Bolt actually thinks he actually HAS those super powers.

Happy 31 to me! Please deposit best wishes in the comment section... Just kidding... You don't have to if you don't want to. After all, I haven't exactly been keeping up on people's birthday's myself. To be honest with you I have trouble keeping track of my own birthday sometimes...

Well, I'm 31 today. I must admit, I kind of thought that by now I would have turned out straight and would have been married with children and would have had a good job by now. Well, I'm still single, I turned out gay as hell and nobody seems to be a good match for me. I still live at home with the folks and I understand my other family members about as much as I understood Algebra II back in high school, which was not very much if at all. It's hard to believe many people my age now have houses and incomes and families.

Once again, Dad has gone overseas to Germany for a month to do more research. Dad likes to burn the candle on both ends and he doesn't take good care of his health and I keep thinking one of these days he'll just not wake up one morning, but that hasn't happened yet. I guess he isn't finished annoying people.

My father is a nice guy in a number of different ways but sometimes I think he also enjoys driving people crazy with his spur of the moment decision making and his harebrained schemes. It's like his first priority is his research and providing income for his family, but his second priority is to be as irritating as possible to everyone else as long as he can get away with it.

Well, after all this panic over my good friend Brian having a heart attack, they finally sent him to the cath lab on Monday. They took the scope and went in through a vain in his leg, sent the scope up to his heart and searched high and low for blockage in his coronary arteries.

A long time ago I had a pick up truck. One day I saw Red Green and his movie "Duct Tape Forever!" So, I was inspired to cover my pick up truck in different colors of duct tape. I started a design that had red, blue, brown, green... and all kinds of nasty colors. I never finished it though. It didn't take long before I figured out just how slow it can be to cover an old truck in duct tape. I also do a poor job of being like Red Green. The role of Red Green is already taken. I have to do a good job of being Jesse Woodruff Craig!

Yeah, sorry about all those of you that had birthdays I missed. It's not that I don't care. The problem is I just have too many problems of my own to keep up with people. As it is, I'll be having a birthday and turning 31 myself in about four days... well on the 24th.

So far I'm still not working and I still haven't figured out what to do with myself. I guess I'm painting the outside of my parent's house again... That's ALWAYS a slow process... Other than that, I'm kind of trying to feel my way through life without any real direction so to speak... I'll be honest... In this economy, I'm not sure I really care either. It kind of doesn't sound like it's going to be fun no matter what happens to me.

There was a little story called Coyote Rose is a certain furry comic. This one...
http://pages.sbcglobal.net/kar120c/covers/asb2.GIF

Now I found the story very touching and very romantic and it was about a traveling musician who happened to stop into town while a certain gay couple were eating dinner at a restaurant. The traveling musician knew the restaurant owner and played his guitar and sang and it was romantic. Yep...

The problem was... well... whenever I ever did read the story "Coyote Rose" This crazy song ALWAYS came to my mind! I wonder if some of you furry fans feel the same way...
