January 27, 2004 Inclement weather random thoughts • Women often use “having a baby” as the reason why they get fat after being slim most of their lives and maintain obesity. I was not aware of this phenomenon when all natural laws governing metabolic rates, heat transfer, caloric activity, and fat burning processes fail to operate. Is there some unknown force in the universe denying them the ability to return to their previous statue? Maybe they just don't care anymore cause they're already married and they don't need to attract boys anymore with a slim figure. Maybe when you have a baby you exist in an alternate dimension where the laws of physics and bodily thermodynamics crumble...who knows, but it seems overweight women who have babies know exactly the cause, and heavens no it’s not their fault. Maybe if the husband loved their wives more things would be different. Or maybe there’s something to this “alternate dimension” theory... • Am I not normal in that I can’t forget about romantic feelings for certain individuals, even if it was many many years ago? Though I’ve never had a girlfriend, I’ve had close girl friends of which romantic interest, though not manifested, was apparent (continues today). Anyways, it’s just weird, because I think of certain people almost daily and I’d venture a guess that they might not even remember my name. Does this mean I’m overly emotional and attachable? Or does this mean they, and most people, are superficial and recyclable? The worst is being and love when you can’t be in love. Juliet dost thou... • Is anyone else tired of this inclement weather?!?! I can’t drive my cars cause rear-wheeled sports sedans don’t perform too well on non dry pavement, I can’t work on my cars cause it’s ten billion degrees below 0°K, I can’t just take a walk without my face freezing to the air, etc. etc., yak yak, complain complain. Enough winter already! Bring on the sun, sand, and bikinis!!! :) • Some people are taken aback at my candid remarks about many personally intimate details about me. Um, what have I got to hide? Maybe people I guess have a lot to hide so they do their best to do just that. But me? Nah. I have no problem telling people I’ve looked at pornography on the internet, or that I’ve cheated on my work time sheets, or that I mentally undress girls a lot, or that I’m mean to my parents on purpose sometimes, or that I purposely avoid people because I don’t want to talk to them, or that I make up excuses for my mistakes, or that I’m a virgin, etc. I mean if God calls me out for the utter hopeless human I am apart from only him, why should I put on a show for other destitute humans? We’re all in this together folks, and the moment we’re honest with ourselves, the moment we can make progress. • Am I a nerd because I listen to video game soundtracks? Marit, did you think I was a huge nerd when I was playing the Final Fantasy VII Disc 3 soundtrack to you? • I lost my phone over the weekend. Piece of nerds! :( • I saw the Philadelphia Flyers mop up on the Washington Capitals over the weekend 4-1....nice :) • Check out this band Scratch Track if you haven’t already yet. They’re awesome and have EbbWorld’s recommendation. |
