Sleep
Finally was able to sleep last night and it was the most beautiful thing in the world. I am actually feeling better today so I am pretty pumped because there is nothing worse then wasting a weekend in bed blowing snot out of your nose.

Things You Shouldn't Say to a Girl #876312 & 876313
- I bet you have a lot of cats
You - Whats that scent?
Her - Some Perfume Brand
You - Oh I thought it was just rank smelling pussy
As lady gaga says, "Wish I could shut my playboy mouth"

Pinky and the Brain
Sometimes I wonder if Osama Bin Laden ever feels like Pinky and the Brain or Doctor Evil. Albeit the Brain was much more creative in his attempts to take over the world and Doctor Evil has a much better sense of humor. Then I realized a sad thought, Osama doesn't want to rule the world he wants to destroy the part of it that doesn't agree with him. Maybe Osama is Pinky to Muhammad's Brain? Constantly foiling plans written down by a divine dictator. Did you ever think about that? I guess Tears for Fears was right when they said everybody wants to rule the world.

Does Bacon Equate to Xenophobia?
Interesting discussion last night on whether or not you can gage a persons degree of Xenophobia by how much they love bacon.
Is Bacon and bacon merchandise the new confederate flag?
Here is the logic: a person who incorporates bacon as a major component in their diet is less likely to interact with other cultures where the use of bacon is considered offensive for example as in the Kosher diet or pick any handful of major religions that consider swine filthy. This person would eat at places that served bacon or with people for who the practice of eating bacon was culturally acceptable making few relations outside of their cultural norm. Over time this worse of bacon would culturally isolate the individual and reinforce social norms.
I was a little tipsy as this was being discussed but for some reason it almost started to sound plausible.
For the record I am a fan of bacon cheeseburgers.
For the record I wouldn't consider myself xenophobic.
But this could have to do with the amount of love I have for bacon?
How would I do this study? Especially since most people are unwilling to admit that they have racist or xenophobic tendencies?
I realize there is a huge issue with causality here but it is interesting to think about none the less.
Maybe someday there will even be a question on E-Harmony asking people to rank their bacon obsession.

Religion = Apathy?
The happiest day of my life was when I was born again as an atheist. It was the day I realized that my time is finite, that anything I want to happen in my life I have to do. There is no eternal land of happiness to inherit. No one is coming to save you. As bleak as that sounds it is the most awesome force in this world. It is human will. It is me in control of my destiny. It is my happiness. My ability to live every minute because I know this is it. I do what I want rather then what is expected and I love every minute of it.
I can't stand the apathy of religion.
Of someone who thinks prayer is going to fix our problems.
A person who believes it is gods will that we pump billions of chemicals into the air and if we die we die.
A person who believes we are going to be saved by a liberator by something other then ourselves.
These are probably going to be the most blasphemous things I have ever uttered but I think they need to be said.
We are our own saviors.
Prayer instead of action is for the weak and lazy. It is pushing your problem off on someone else.
There are people that come up to me ask ask about what I did last night and last weekend with a little twinkle of jealousy in their eyes that I never quite get, since they could do the same things if only they wanted to.
There are haters that say I am reckless and irresponsible that I am too old to enjoy life like I do.
But I know something they don't.....
That our time is running out.
That soon enough this ride is going to end and we will die and in that brief moment before, when we can think back through our time here I am glad that I am me and lived my way and not theirs.
Some Quotes for Faithful...
"Jesus turned water into wine and not the other way around."
"Two hands working accomplishes more then a million clasped in prayer."
"When you see my face I hope it gives you hell, hope it gives you hell."
With love,

My Punctuality is Relevant.
I Have started to notice my punctuality corresponds to how much preperation the person expecting me has gone to on my behalf. I know some people who are on time no matter what. I know some people who are always late no matter what.
I have also noticed the less someone has had to prepare for me the later I will show up. For example I always arrive on time to a dinner party since I know a lot of effort goes into it and like all things delicious timing can be everything, but if that same person invited me for just drinks I might be 15 minutes late or if there are a lot of people invited maybe an hour to two hours late.
The same principle applys to work. My co-works have driven far, droppped of kids, said good bye to love ones all to meet with me at an expected time hence I am never late for work.
I have also noticed I hold people to this similar logic that the more effort I put into preparing for a person the more pissed off I get if they are late.
The only place this principle doesn't seem to apply is that I am never late to happy hour even if i am going alone..lol

Weekend ReCap
Friday
Solera for a few cocktails:)
When to Manhattans for a few cocktails....I really want to love this place but the service is just poor. I mean call me stupid but a place that wants to be known for their cocktails should probably have some decent bartenders. Granted it has been a few years since I have slinged drinks but I could have done better job then all of them put together. The only thing worse than a slow woman is a slow bartender.
Went to see Joel McHale's comedy show at the State Theater. Fuck you I like the Soup and anyone who hates Ryan Seacrest that much is alright in my book. Now the State Theater really messed up the timing of these shows and it was a mess getting into the 10:00 show with the 8:00 show getting out but after a brief pushing match the show got started and it was pretty good. I have no idea who his opening act was but that guy was awesome.
Saturday
Worked for a few hours early in the morning.
Went to Half Price Books and Sold off a Years Worth of Text Books (Probably about $1000.00 worth for a cool $50.00)
Installed New Fridge Compressor.
Went to Tailgate....hey I had $50 burning a hole in my pocket.
Got some PF Changs take out, made a fire, drank some wine and watched Vicky Christina, Barcelona.
I am a pretty big Woody Allen fan but this was not his best by any means..ok it was sexy, Cruz was good, I love Spain but the some of the parts was just equal to the whole. My favorite part was watching it on the couch with someone who was even sexier.
Sunday
Worked a little in the morning
Chores, Chores, Chores
Watched Nights in Rodanthe. Started off slow, but a decent ending even for a Nicholas Sparks novel.
Did Home Work
Watched Zach and Miri Make a Porno It was alright.
Got my prep on for the week.
