A Little of This and a Little of That

A little of this:

My quote of the day: The people who wrote the Bible were just as dedicated to truth as Fox News.

I pulled it from one of the guys I follow on Twitter. I could not have said it better myself.  

And now for a little of that:

For the past several months I've been trying to make a decision and it has really been driving me crazy. Normally I evaluate a situation, gather as much information as I can and make an informed decision. Well, this was a matter of the heart so it was not so easy. I met someone a while back and have not been able to get this person out of my head. We see each other a couple times a week and get along very well. In order for me to continue with this person I have to be willing to break two of my rules; not just one mind you but two! I don't put many rules upon myself so when I do there are very valid reasons for it. The last couple months I've been trying to decide whether or not I'm willing to break my own rules. I decided over the weekend that I'm not. I may very well be throwing away a fantastic relationship but I just can't do it. I'm sad about it and I'm a little bit afraid that I've made a bad decision but I put these rules in place for a reason and I just can't ignore that. We haven't seen each other for a few days now. I'm probably making another stupid mistake which I'm prone to when it comes to relationships but I gotta do what I gotta do. It's easy for me to make this decision right now but I know the first time I see that smile and hear that laughter I'm going to kick myself in the ass. Damn it gives me a stomach ache just writing about it. I guess it's a good thing my calendar is full all week and I'll be out of town this weekend. We wont see each other again until next Sunday. It sucks to be me right now :(

Facebook makes me laugh

LOL, Facebook is funny. It's posts on your News Feed "so and so is now friends with so and so" We all get a heads up when one of our friends makes a new friend YAY. That's all good. But I think it would be funny as hell if Facebook posted on your News Feed every time somebody "unfriends" someone else. It could go a little something like this "so and so had a bitch fight with so and so now they ain't friends no more."

I mean Facebook is a social networking tool, right? We all know in our social networks if two people have a cat fight everyone talks about it. 

I think I'll write them a letter with my suggestion. 

Check that Ass!

I just finished reading a friends blog, I've been slacking on my blog reading so I'm trying to catch up. Anyway, as I was saying... one of her posts was about the O'Hare airport. This reminded me of the Olympics. How do you ask does the Chicago airport remind me of the Olympics? Well actually it was her ranting about peoples behavior in the airport that reminded me of the Olympics. While I was at the Olympics in Vancouver this past February I was fortunate enough to be able to watch some curling events. The venue where the curling took place was really nice, the only problem was the seating. They had bleacher type seating but there were actual seats attached to the bleachers. These seats were so close together that your neighbors ass hung over onto your seat. This prompted me it exclaim that they needed a "check your ass" box at the venue. Just like at the airport when you are going to board a plane your carry on luggage has to fit in a box, if it's too big then you have to check your bag. Well they seriously needed a check your ass box at the curling venue. There is nothing more uncomfortable than having butt cheeks of the people next to you hanging onto your seat! I'm not a big person so my ass fit on the seat, but the people with me have wee bit bigger butts and their butts would crowd over onto my seat. And if you were unfortunate enough to sit next to an even bigger person not only did their ass cheeks encroach into your space but so did the rest of their body!

They needed to install a box the size of the seats, if your ass extends over the sides then you need to check your ass! Buy two seats, whatever; but if your ass is sharing my seat then I should get a discount.

I think they could also use this at the airports. Who the hell wants some big fat person sitting next to them and taking over your chair space. It's bad enough we have to share an arm rest but come on if your butt extends past the edge of your seat you need to check your ass! Buy two seats, or give me a discount.

OK, this might not be the nicest of my posts but people need to start taking care of themselves and if they are too big for a seat then they need to buy two seats or stay home.

Entropic Chaos Factor

I'm totally sucked into the Stieg Larsson book "The Girl Who Played With Fire". I finished reading "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" about a week ago and Amy gave this book to me last Saturday. I had to finish reading "Death Match" by Lincoln Child before I started reading the Stieg Larsson book or I know I wouldn't have finished "Death Match." I usually have a couple books going at one time but I really like the Larsson books and know I'll be sucked in. I started reading it yesterday.

Anyway, as I was saying... I'm sucked into the book and I just read something that made me stop and "google" it. After seeing the results I know I'm not alone, a lot of other people did the same thing.

Here's is the passage that stopped me:

"Apart from the fact that you're not really a dyke. You're probably bisexual. But most of all you're sexual-you like sex and you don't care about what gender. You're an entropic chaos factor."

Stop the presses, what the hell is an entropic chaos factor? It sounds like fun to me! Do I need to add this to my sexuality postings? As I said I "googled" it and really did not get a difinative answer. So I guess I have to make up my own answer.

Entropic - entropy - this has way too much math for me. hmm I'm going with a "measure of uncertainty within a random variable."
Chaos - lacking order
Factor - 'who/which acts' Agent a person who acts for another.

So let's see we have random variable, lacking order and an agent. Here's my definition:
A person; in this case a woman who shows up unexpectantly at your doorstep some evening, and rocks your world.
I kinda like that~ sign me up for one of those Entropic chaos factors!

Life Lessons According to Me #3

As I stated before there is no order to my life lessons; I'm posting them as they enter my head. Today's lesson is one I learned from my Mother and as I was just talking with a friend about it this morning I thought I should make it my next Life Lessons post. 

Don't ask a question unless you are sure you want to hear the answer. 

This is a lesson I think everyone should learn and learn it at a young age. I can't tell ya how many times someone will ask me a question and then they don't like the answer. They ask, I answer and then they ask again in hopes of getting a different answer.

Some questions should never be asked. When you ask someone a question you need to be prepared to hear something you may not like, you may get your feelings hurt and you may discover something you really don't want to know. It happens most often in relationships with friends lovers, and family members.

Be prepared, do you really want to know the answer to that question???
