DAY 85
Appleton, Wisconsin
August 30, 2009
Sun 8:05 PM
nothing feels better than doing nothing... a close second is blogging. gives release from all the thoughts in the head... i have a few today. first off, went to milwaukee friday night to eat at sabor... a brazilian churascarria where you get mass quantities of all sorts of meat served on big scewers that look like swords. served to you by guachos, who respond to the mere flip of a red and green coaster... green of course meaning give me all the fire cooked meat i can eat, and read meaning please for the love of god stay away i'm about to burst from over-consumption of meat. so, naturally we left just sluggish and more full than ever... but it was worth it. you have to eat your money's worth because the place is pricey... thank you insurance settlement cash! and since we were downtown we decided to go to the old german beer hall and get some currywurst to go. i couldn't even stomach the thought of eating more, but that currywurst is so damn good! it wasn't particularily appetizing though, it's not the type of food that, even when full, you can't get enough of. like ice cream or pizza, those foods are all the time foods, if you put an endless stream of vanilla ice cream (yes, i like vanilla the most) i will continue to eat it. i doubt i'd hit the point where i felt like my stomach hit the wall... couldn't happen. pizza too, not that i would continue to eat it, but i could. ahhh, high life, there's my plug for my favorite miller product, just too a swig. anyway, back to currywurst, so, got some to go, but because... ahh, liquid deliciousness. must stop drinking high life... ok ok, currywurst, got some because last time i had it, it was so magical, the taste, the everything about it. de facto national snack of germany... delicious. or so, it was when i was severely buzzed (not drunk, not drunk, i still had my wits about me, after countless drinks... i can hold my own quite well). i think food tastes better after several beers and you get that hankerin' for anything fried, greasy, or cheap and easy to come by. currywurst is quite possibly the most gourmet alcohol-induced-desired grub i'll ever eat, i mean, compared to taco bell. so, i was quite surprised when friday night i didn't exactly desire it at all, at all. i mean, i was stuffed fuller than i think i've ever been but still. so, i've learned that currywurst is best after several beers, probably why it's so popular in germany. reminds me of something the german exchange student in high school used to say about american activities, he would say about such things that "if you can't do it drunk, we don't do it in Germany." interesting fellow, considering he drank coca-cola instead of beer, or at least while he was here. could've been because american beer is inferior to german beer, or, more probable, because of our age limit.
just read on cnn.com that dick cheney is saying the probe into illegal interogation techiniques is politically motivated. what a dick. cause we all know dick cheney has never done anything that was purely politically motivated. what a dick.
watching casino royale on tv... why do people who own the movie watch said movie when it's on tv with commercials and editing? why is that, there should be some psychology term for that. lazyfilmintvitis or something. it's like when you have lobster at home in the fridge (happens so often for me, har har har), but you're too lazy to boil it so you order chinese instead. you pay extra for delivery and you have to wait longer, but it requires you to not do anything except pick up a telephone. right now, i have casino royale sitting in the cabinet on dvd, and on blu-ray in my room, but it's easier to just pick up the tv remote and live with the editing and the commercials.
my church recently opened up the clergy to gays and lesbians in committed relationships, a good move i think. way to continue the rebel tradition started by martin luther during the reformation, the rebel tradition being to do that which is right. the church can, and should, adapt to the changing world. this is just what i think. also, from a business standpoint it makes sense, or more specifically from a human resources standpoint. this ensures that there will continue to be the labor required for the ministry. more pastors = better church. this is fact. churches can be better served this way. more churches can be built. more people can be helped. ask the catholics how they're doing, by limiting their priesthood to one sex who can't have sex. doesn't seem like a good system to me. but what do i know as a woman.
i've determined that the word to describe me would be overemployed. you know, people can be unemployed, and underemployed, and simply employed... the word to describe by employment state would be overemployed. i work much more than is financially required for my stability. but i'm ok with this, cause like i say so often, i loves the money. it truly is all about the benjamins. weekends be damned! evenings damned! social life damned! like michael douglas once said in that movie, greed is good. but i am not greedy, my wealth is not coming at the expense of others, but rather to the detriment of my social life, rest, and perhaps sanity. small price to pay for a big pay day. the day will come when i have enough money to focus on my social life, rest, and sanity.
still watching casino royale, the part where they're both in the shower... fully clothed if you haven't seen the movie. like there'd be anything inappropriate in a bond film. now i want to take a nice, long, hot shower. i like hot showers, the hotter the better. as far to the edge of hotness that i can stand, turn the dial one more milimeter would equal scalding.
mmm, high life and jack's pizza. supporting the wisconsin economy, did you know jack's is made in the fox cities? sure, and we all know high life comes from milwaukee. it makes my late night hunger binge feel better.
so, another thing i've determined (man, this post is going to knock all my recents ones out cold... talk about catching up for being a slacker... thank you sunday nights?) i've determined that i am just not trendy enough to be an apple person. a mac, as the commercials would have it. not cool enough, well, not trendy. mac people aren't necessarily cooler, though i'm sure they think they are. many of them are nerds, some nerdier than i (and i'm quite nerdy). but, you picture the stereotypical apple person... there they are, slightly overweight or slightly underweight with a goatee, drinking some latte, cappucino (some fancy word for coffe drink) sitting at starbucks (cause of their free wifi, you know) doing some fancy media-related thing on their mac reading the new york times. and probably wearing flip-flops and an organic cotton tee. that's a mac person. i'm a pc. i don't need to pay way too much for a laptop that will be outdated in two weeks. that's what i don't like about apple, they never make anything that lasts, as soon as you buy an apple thing it's replaced less than a year later. i don't need anythink fancy to check my email and occasionally blog. but you know what i do need, a right click button. macs don't have that, and i don't know how to operate them anyway. so, yeah, i'm just not trendy enough to be a mac person. but i do love when people enjoy telling me over and over how macs are superior to pc and, you know that... well, i'm told that, but i don't have the proof.
ah, well, that's enough for today, i think i've covered enough topics, so, in the event i don't blog again this week (or rather the certainty) it's ok, i've made up for it. i should rename the title of this blog from day 85 to days 85-91. but i won't, can't change the rules halfway through the game.
