:: Random Thoughts ::

From time to time there are just songs that really strike a chord (no pun) with me. As of lately, this song “Somebody That I Used To Know” has featured some lyrics that I think reflect some of my feelings about some people I used to know. This isn’t directly related to courting relationships, as the song implies, but relations with others in general. Over the years I have either changed how I used to be or these others have drastically changed, or both. There are those who I used to confide in, or would confide in me, and somehow this has changed and is no longer the case. More times than not I find myself out of the circle of information, or told to not inform people. 

What the hell is FFB?” - Me

“Far, Far… Beway?” - Ariel


Note: FFB is Foundations Fighting Blindness

First week was a success, minus the fact that due to the support staff being on strike I was unable to get my schedule fixed of 1 conflict in it. That’s all for school update.

First week was interesting in a way because I ran into someone I was hoping I wouldn’t have to, had reality kick me in the face, and then reality set in.

Apologies if this seems scattered or misguided, as this night goes on it has become harder to keep focused. Pretty much is a night alone in an empty house with my thoughts and a 24. Maybe it’s me taking advantage of things I should resist come Monday, maybe it’s just how I coup during my solitude. There are some things even I can’t answer, how do you / how should I spend my time of solitude?

Today at work was quite the busy one. Never helps when prices in my area are extremely low on popular items, in addition to being the only one who is opening that section. So needless to say, I had plenty of time to kill between inquiries from customers, management and just work needing to be done. So how do I kill time while working? I sing with the radio. But something random and entertaining happened today. It just so happened that my singing to the radio at work sparked quite the random moment. While singing in the back, at a quieter than normal voice, a customer opens the door for a product near me. This customer is, to my surprise, also singing to the song that is on the radio. We both look at each other with a quizzical look on each our faces and stop for a second. What followed was what made this moment one for the records. We both started right back up leading right into, and through, that chorus.

Achievement Unlocked!

Day = Made

What better way to spend time at work, then to actually work. I actually much prefer the random conversations that go on between associates while we work. The topic today, besides guy talk and random games, a new game to play which is sorta a fill in the blank. While talking about going out to grab a drink, I said

“I’m no alcoholic, I just like the bottle.”

- Timothy

More examples of which we came up with are as follows:

“I’m not a stalker, I just watch you sleep at night”

- Timothy

“I’m not a rapist, I just enjoy surprise sex”

- Michael Luffman

“I’m no doctor, but I think you are dying”

- Timothy

It is almost like the “I’ve Never” except no drinking and funnier. Feel free to try this out for yourself. Basic template is “I’m no / I’m not a(n) ____________ [statement], just / but _________ [contradiction].”
