Dear Cthulhu – July 16

•July 16, 2012 • Comments Off on Dear Cthulhu – July 16

Dear Cthulhu,

How’s it going down there in the watery depths? I have to admit that pruney and clamy come to my mind when I think about it. Which reminds me does it ever occur to you that your choice is biographer may have been poor in hindsight? Especially when considering Scientology, I mean they have alien beings and secret societies too and yet somehow managed to win over a Will Smith FPS! WILL SMITH!! Think of the possibilities! I think you got gipped.

Speaking of, my mind has been troubled lately, no not by madness or anxiety, so sorry, but by men, actually. Do you consider yourself male? I waver there, myself, mostly because I look at other so called G-ds and they are all about smoten’ bitches, yet you take a more subtle route – havoc and mayhem. Much more like how a woman would approach the whole end of times thing, don’t you think? So given that you seem to have a good balance there, I’m hoping that maybe you could help out with this. Can you just make boys make sense? And if not smoten’ is still an option…

I can even give you a list…

Your Faithful Servant,

O

PS To show you how devoted I am, I recently picked up this fabulous shirt by the even more fabulous Melee_Ninja – Godzilla vs. Cthulhu. Obviously I know you can totally take him – fire breathing is for wusses.

XOXOXO

Do you put the over in oversharing?

•July 12, 2012 • Comments Off on Do you put the over in oversharing?

How much of ‘oversharing’ is really subjective and dependent on your level of relationship with the other person. Is there a difference between your closest friend telling you she has cramps and see a stranger post about it? Does it become an overshare if it’s too detailed? Or is oversharing simply a function of sharing your life minutia too often?

I have a variety of friends on this spectrum, those who rarely share online all the way to those who post multiple times an hour and the variety of information can on some days be a little overwhelming. From my perspective though, I wouldn’t be friends with you if I wasn’t interested in reading about what is going on in your life and part of being friends is accepting people as they are.

Personally, I don’t share even a quarter of what I have going on and that’s mainly because I don’t find it that interesting, compelling or worth reading but if I get the urge to post something that was said or just happened I consider it a sign that I should and not spend much time pondering it’s worth. I may just be part of the problem…

July Haiku

•July 11, 2012 • Comments Off on July Haiku

I live in Phoenix!

Stop asking me if it’s hot!

July? Of course it is!

 

cds and sunglasses

pennies, buckles, steering wheel

stuff that can burn you

 

Cicada singing

His loud summer mating song

Tymbals click, click, click

 

Monsoon is the best

Crazy, dark, sudden, splashing

And over too soon

 

Laying in the grass

Playing games to pass the time

Summer memories

Welfare and Work Ethic

•July 10, 2012 • 1 Comment

This past Sunday I ran into a friend of mine from my time working for AHCCS, Arizona’s Medicaid program. We pretty quickly ended up in an animated discussion on differences we’ve experiences between the work ethics of those who’ve struggled to work their way up and those just starting out on their careers. Lots of generalizations there but we were sharing war stories and not solving problems. Mid conversation we were interrupted by a man who, angrily, interjected,

“Or there are those that just want to live off the government, be controlled by the government and never do anything in life but put their hand out.”

Interesting comment to add to a conversation on the work ethic of the underprivileged; but ok, in an attempt to be inclusive I responded, “We were just discussing how not having to struggle, having your way paved for you seems to lead to a sense of entitlement in some younger people. What are your thoughts on that?”

<Insert nonsensical mumbling here.>

As he walked away my friend jumped in with a ‘Who does he think he is?’ rant all about making assumptions, ignorance and that ridiculous need to spout of opinions. All of which got me thinking about why I took the polite route when what I should have said was that he was speaking to two people who had directly benefited from government assistance, who pushed to stand up on their own two feet and who work hard every day to make sure that they won’t need to again.

And more importantly that we are the norm and not the exception.

So this one is for you, angry old man, thank you for reminding me that sometimes it’s better to be open than polite. I’ll be ready for you next time!

HEY R U THERE?

•July 6, 2012 • Comments Off on HEY R U THERE?

This seriously makes me stabby…

BABE… i guess your not getting any of my email huh? ive been tryign to email u so many times but this dam laptop is such a piece of garbage and keeps freezing.. anyways how u been? In case u dont know who this is its ME ADRIANA.. we used to chat a bit on facebook and then I think u deleted me 😦 haha..

Deleted you? Let me take a wild guess at why – the rampant spelling and grammar mistakes, the weird use of all CAPS or could it be the demonic “haha”?

anyways guess what… I got 2 things to tell u.. both good news.. 1) im single now.. yup me and my bf broke up about 3 months ago… and 2) guess where im moving? RIGHT EFFING NEAR U.. lol…

Can we all agree that this is definitely restraining order material? I know I would so love it if someone I deleted from Facebook would move nearby…

 im kinda scared to move.. im hoping this email addy is still the one you use and u can chat with me ebfore i get there.. maybe even help me move my shit in…are u still on facebook? i cudnt find ui was soo confused…anyways im gonna need someone to show me the town and take me out so u better be around bebe…

Scared? Me too! Though I’m super stoked to know that moving furniture and all kinds of outings are in my immediate future, glad we cleared that up, for a second there I was worried you only wanted money.

I really hope we get a chance to chat for a bit either online or on the fone before i get there enxt week.. i hope u remmeber me and still wanna chill and aren’t married yet lol.. OH YA also.. i need to find a job when i get there.. do u have any hookups or know anybody hiring? id LOVE to work in a bar or osmehting like that…

Wouldn’t being removed from someone’s friends list put a damper on the chillin together expectation? No? Wait JOB? You need an EFFING JOB? (See what I did there) In case you’re counting we’re up to nine spelling mistakes which I’d guess would severely hamper one’s ability to obtain a job or maybe that’s just me.

also since im in such a huge debt already form my student loan 😦 I really thingk we need to chat before i get there and make sure u evern remember me hahha.. anyways ive rambled on and on now and ur probably soooo annnoyed with me so ill stop now..

Student loan? Hmmm, no I don’t think so. If so then I think we need to add that to the list of pre apocalyptic events. Annoyed? Oh yeah but not from the rambling, nope, not at all. In what world does an openly stalking, jobless, in debt, bimbo get men excited? I mean really who clicks on this stuff?
