Uninspired Buffalo
I have been quite uninspired to write anything of value here. I come up with things, some funny and some serious, but I never end up writing or making any of it. I just realize the uselessness since all of only about four or five people I know actually look at this on some rare occasions, and I can just talk to them later instead. That is if they are willing to deal with listening to me for a minute. It just seems like it would make me sad to spend time doing something and no one cares or even sees it. I guess that is my copeout for not doing a lot of things. I guess the blog has served it's purpose of my own self discovery thing. I have realized a lot about myself when thinking about things to write... I just never write it because I am afraid that either no one will care or that someone will care. Either way can seem bad. I guess it is kind of depressing seeing the (0 comments) next everything. It is kind of funny considering instead writing stuff in this or working on other things I have started writing a little script thing...the irony is I never intend to let anyone read it for those same reasons. Either no one will care or possibly someone might care.
Well anywho, yesterday I was hunting buffalo with a slingshot and a bucket of peas. I wasn't using normal peas but instead those petite peas because they were on sale and it felt like a bargain since you get a lot more per pound. (That is just how I rationalized it, and if you feel I am wrong I welcome hearing other opinions on the matter and perhaps we can set up debate.) Now you may not think peas are the best of weapons but you should keep in mind that they were frozen peas, so depending on a number of factors they might quite possibly sting a little if they were traveling at a high enough velocity. Now with that explanation behind us, I was hunting these buffalo with my slingshot and peas while of course camouflaged as a telephone pole. This can be a very difficult task if you don't have very good balance. I don't know why I just typed that because of course you would have to be an idiot to not already know that. What a waste to just point out the obvious. It is like taking the time to say that flamingos are evil. Anyway, So I continue with the hunt when I realize there are no buffalo around at all. Sure the hunt can continue without them just like deer hunters hunting for deer when there isn't a deer to be seen. The trouble came when I realized I didn't actually have the telephone pole costume on which I had initially believe to be there. I also realized that I don't even have a slingshot, and my bucket of peas were starting to thaw out rather quickly. These realizations opened the floodgates that were holding back the problems with my situation. For one I realized I had never seen a buffalo in my kitchen so I don't know what led me to think that was a good place to hunt them. I also realize hunting in your underwear is never a good idea so I took them off right then and there. Well with not all said and basically nothing done my hunting trip was a complete disaster and I ended up putting the peas back in the freezer so they will be too cold to plot against me. This is what happens when every morning (actually afternoon for me and my current schedule) you are awoken by the apartment phone ringing which causes you to toss yourself out of bed and stumbling to the kitchen to answer the phone knowing that the last 200 times you did this it was a telemarketer, a recording, or a hang up and this time will be no different. This just leaves me standing in the kitchen still asleep and disoriented and for some reason holding peas. Just once I would like that apartment number phone call that wakes me up every day to be something real and important...actually never mind. That would definitely not be a good time to deal with an important phone call.
PS: I still owe Andrew $1 for making a second really long beyond half court shot in a row. Grumble. I do feel somewhat better though after really pissing him off by making 8 free throws in a row when he was about to win and rather quickly coming back to win in a game that we play which I made up which can take a long time because points cancel the other person points out if your loosing and sometimes it is just fun to write really long confusing run on sentences.
Maybe I should try some sleeping pills.
