ECLIPSED

02:25 Dec 28 2010
Times Read: 949






I know I shouldn't complain. I should be grateful for everything I have and for the relatively good fortune which surrounds me.



BUT...



I suppose it's the one downside to having my birthday so close to Christmas. Every year it gets completely eclipsed by Christmas. No one can meet out for a beer or a cocktail. There's too much to do; shopping, holiday parties, friends in town, gotta buy a Christmas tree, etc.



Completely understandable.



Most years, there are phone calls and friendly emails. The co-workers sign a card and pass it around. There's cake in the conference room. Everyone sings. Etc.



This year, not so much. Oh sure, the lovely Ms Thothythoth spoiled me with gifts and she made me dinner. I am sincerely grateful. And my parents called me, though I suppose they feel they have to...



But my bastard co-workers didn't get a cake this year. They didn't even sign a card. Not even an effin' email. My friends called me... the next day. The rest of them say things like "If you were on FaceBook I could have posted something on your wall".



See, dear reader, it is my opinion that technology is making people lazier.



I don't know. Maybe I'll just have to change my birthday to June. I'm always a little envious of people who have birthdays in the summer. There's so much more you can do when the weather is nice, school is out, and your birthday isn't being eclipsed by Christmas.



*hmph*

"Mary and Joseph and baby Jee.



And all the calendar people came and said,



"Oh, Mary, Joseph, thank you. Good timing.



"Six days early, actually, so, er.



"But it's Christmas so... Spirit of goodwill."



Baby Jee was there and the three wise men

came from the Old Testament with big fuck-off beards.



"Baby Jee, we have followed the star, "which was a lamppost for a while

and we went in circles but now we are here.



"We got a bit pissed somewhere near Birmingham

"and now we are here with presents!



"Baby Jee, we bring you gold! Ah.



"We bring you frankincense. Ah.



"And we bring you myrrh. Er...



"Yes, I think if you rub it on the back of a duck, it goes quite fast.

"That's what... Or maybe it's a small banjo?



"If you can spell it you can have it,

how about that?"



Baby Jee was very happy.

"Thank you for my Christmas presents.

"And for my birthday presents?"



"What? Christmas and birthday, isn't it?

"You were born and it's Christmas.

Two presents. Ah, you're the first...

"Are there any shops open?"



Mary and Joseph -

"Er, late-night petrol station, try that."



"Brilliant, good idea. We'll be right back.



"Get out, get out of it.

Get the beard out the way."



minutes later they came back.

"Sorry, we're here.



"Baby Jee, we bring you cigarettes.

"A Diet Coke. And a sack of charcoal!"

I have a birthday in July- the 26th to be precise.



My brother's was on the 25th. Of July. And he was 2 years younger.



For years I had to put up with the ubiquitus shared party, because it made things easier on the parental units.



I'm widja.....

Well, mine isn't really eclipsed by any holidays, but it's still during the winter. I didn't have birthday parties because none of my friends could ever come due to inclement weather. :( So I was always envious of summer birthdays.

Me and mine are also in December. Happily, neither of us really give a fig about our birthday. I tend to get annoyed when people DO bring it up. Switching to June sounds like a fine idea! I mean, it is YOUR day, after all.



But I do completely agree that our technology has made us ridiculously lazy about such things. I'll take a "Hey man, happy birthday" by phone over an email/card/facebook post any day!

Oh! Wait, Santa! I know what I want this year for Christmas! I know what I want.



Ready?



I want a robot.



I want a robot that can kick a ball while holding my martini. And I want a robot that can lean on objects like a human... and can sit at a desk and do my filing & answer the phone. Yeah! YEAH!!



Please please please please please!

If it weren't for all the complaining; that would be a swell idea.



Ow, my back! This chair is cold. Where are my slippers? This table wobbles. You call THAT a ball? When I was your age the balls were made of iron, and we had to kick them with steel boots. Without socks. In the snow. All day long....

I'm always impressed by people who can dedicate their free time to worthy causes. I'm even more impressed by people who dedicate their free time for completely ridiculous, yet entertaining endeavors -- like stop-motion animation.



This video just blew my mind.

AWFUL

I found my old diary from my teenage years.



It's an assortment of bad poetry, short stories, and journal entries -- in no apparent order. Some entries have dates, some don't. Some are written in ink, some in dull pencil.



The best thing about my cheesy little journal are the doodles in the margins: skulls, eyes, flaming cars, exploding robots, metallic spheres, guitars, lightning, aliens crawling out of boxes, strange geometric shapes that seem to ooze blood through cracks and pores, etc.

*shrug*



I don't remember drawing these things.

But there they are.



One doodle is a picture of a grinning shark with a little thought-balloon over his head that says:

"ME HUNGRY"



Dork-a-rama.

A complete, and total dork-a-rama.



but I digress...

For the most part, the writing is awful. Just awful. Dreadful, really. I had the attention span of a gnat. And judging by my sketchy handwriting and indiscriminate subject matter; I had mood swings that appear to be borderline bi-polar. With just a whiff of madness.



Of course, that's the opinion of the adult Me who can approach this from a calm, emotionally indifferent perspective. Teenage Me would beg to disagree. Teenage Me thought this was all VERY important stuff.



Teenage Me would throw rocks at Adult Me.



So, I'm going to start posting the horrible poetry I wrote as a teenager. This will make Teenage Me cringe in horror. Adult Me will find pleasure in this.



Teenage Me will sulk and say whatever, man.

lol- I think everybody should keep a journal at that age, and have the opportunity to look back at themselves and giggle.



Course, most people wouldn't think it was so funny.



But they have no sense of humor and are beneath us anyway...lol



Print portions for us to read? Pweaze?

There are also some entries which appear to be Teenage Thoth's attempts at writing heavy metal lyrics.



I even left little notes to myself like:

The chorus is in F# and A



That's helpful, Teenage Thoth.

THAT BITCH

15:45 Dec 02 2010

I know dogs are loyal creatures and all -- that's why we like them. LIKE them. Sometimes I tell my dog that I love her.



Between you and me, dear reader, this isn't true. I know that I don't truly LOVE my dog. I like her an awful lot, though. She is a wonderful companion; respectful, obedient, humorous, eager to please, polite.. she chews with her mouth closed. She respects my personal space.



But it isn't love. Not real love, anyway.



And I could never marry her.



News headline:

Puppy Love: Man marries dog...



What the?? Can someone in Australia please explain this to me? Thanks.

That better be fake. The dog has no say. Nor the mental capacity to understand what's going on. Isn't that a requirement for marriage there, too?



And I loved my puppy to pieces. I would never marry her, but she was just an awesome, awesome friend.

well...I honestly could never marry anyone (thing) that didn't have the capacity to teach me, challenge me, inspire me, nor appreciate things like music, art or humour amongst other things. NEVER.



Marriage isnt about having just adoration or obedience from your partner, surely its an equal partnership with mutual respect for wants and wishes and things like that?



Dunno what else to say except for gawds sake, the civillised world has just sanctioned same-sex marriages, surely its not that easy for a human to marry their animal. Incidently, if the dog was adopted, isnt that incest as well?

Nope. The husband claims that it isn't a sexual relationship. I just hope the wife doesn't leave him and take the house in the divorce.



That would be awkward.

And also, the civilised world may have legalised same sex marriages, but we're obviously not civilised. The Christian component should be cheering. After all, at least it's a girl dog.
