Describe your day.

[Something completely different]

I bought some pot today and intended to smoke a bit, yet totaly underestemating how long I hadnt smoked and to some extent even the effect, I fell in a situation which here we call "Geistige Umnachtung" which would translate into "mental derangement".
Consequently I couldnt hold out for a long time and eventualy fell asleep.
Waking up I noticed how much I had actualy missed this feeling of happiness and the relaxation which comes with smoking pot.

My tomcat also came back home today after being gone for 3 days. He does that 2-3 times a month and I always anticipate the smell he has on him when returning.
This time he smelled of farmyard.

Now, a bit dry from the high, I will watch a film while eating some chocolate pudding.

you?

[My imaginary friend is GOD]

My brother's girlfriend came over, and we all watched Hotel Transylvania while eating popcorn and drinking soft drink. My cat jumped on my head and dug her claws in. I'll probably watch Being Human (UK version) with my mother nowish.

Most of my days are pretty much the same. I wake up, go rock climbing, hang out with my girlfriend. If the weather is bad I huddle in a library and cruise around Atheist forums and other internet stuff all day.

Hmm. I ate breakfast, and then had to go to my Mum's funeral at Edgebrook Lutheran, mingled with some friends of my dad for three hours, and when I got home, I watched the season finale of My Little Pony on the DVR, and watched Enter the Void, Brazil (which, interestingly, came up in a discussion of Triumph of the Will in German History class last Tuesday; anyone who's seen the opening scenes of both films can see why), and some old documentary on World War II, tried to write my first attempt at fiction since Mum died, and I just got back from going to a Saved by the Bell parody show called "Breaking Belding." In addition, I read a few stories by James Thurber to try to wind down. Sadly, it's not working as well as I thought it would be, so I'm just going to go jack off to some porn as soon as I'm done catching up with AF.

11am, just woke up.



Ah, I love the holidays.

Got up early, forced myself awake, got dressed and met another guy as I was training him on dog rescue transports. We drove to a local shelter where we retrieved a 3 year old Golden Retriever who was on the euthanasia list and drove her across Phoenix to drop her off with a foster family. Then we drove to another foster family to pick up a dog who had previously been placed there and drove him back across town to meet the permanent home that had been picked out for him and supervised the intros to 3 small kids. He did fine.

Then I came home and took a nap.

Most of my days are just crap and uneventful, but Friday night I was quite proud of myself. I'd spent half the day with my very great friend Shell, gossiping and chatting about personal things as we always do. Considering that I'm only just getting back into the swing of using public transport on my own with my shattered self-confidence, this and what follows is for me quite an achievement. Anyway, later on I mistakenly ended up in Birmingham after forgetting I wasn't on the bus home and missing the stop that I needed to catch it. So round about 11pm I found myself in the big city, facing the prospect of missing the last bus and thus ending up stranded for the night. I'm no stranger to Brum, as it's called locally, but it's all very different in the dark and especially so when you have to get from one side of it to the other on a very tight schedule.

Now, one part of this journey involved having to cross a busy double dual carriageway via a very narrow footbridge. I'm not joking when I say that this thing is easily three stories above the road and just wide enough for two people to walk abreast; and I'm acrophobic in the most extreme sense. So I forced myself to climb its steps, which double back on themselves twice before reaching the footbridge's height, and after removing my hat - I was terrified I'd lose it over the edge - I made myself walk slowly across. I kept telling myself, aloud, to keep looking at the far end of the bridge and not to think about anything else.

It wasn't too bad to begin with, but after about the first quarter was behind me I started to panic and I could see and feel the bridge swaying even though it wasn't. I'm now almost shouting at myself to keep going and not to look at anything but the end of the bridge; and certainly not to think about my being three stories above tarmac, concrete and speeding metal boxes on a thin concrete spar that I just knew was closing in on me.

A hundred years later, my heart pounding through my tight chest and legs shaking like the Pope watching the news, I reached the safety of the steps; whereupon the relief I felt was so tangible, I actually cheered out loud. Luckily there was nobody around.

Incidentally, not only did I make the last bus home, it wasn't even the last bus.

Baby steps, Stim.

Thank you! Yes, as I say I was proud of myself but I never want to have to do that again. The nightmare I had about it later was a doozy, as well. There should have been some kind of warning: "The following presentation may not be suitable for those of a nervous disposition" or something.

Was it a dog nap or a cat nap?

I woke up and talked to the love of my life, got super soaked with soapy bubbles while bathing my 5 & 7yr old niece/nephew, went with them to get the kids a haircut, went to the store to get them new coats, then we went and got Chinese buffet Then we went to the Circus (FLG don't lecture me on Circuses, I know they're bad but should not every child get that experience if they can?). Not to mention they had dippin dots.
Dippin Dots! I lost count of how much money we spent but all in all it was an epic day for the kids
