Sometimes I'm grateful I'm me...
Mar. 22nd, 2009 10:53 amThis weekend was a sweet shot of much-needed sunlight. I uncovered the garden, and did a little yardwork for the first time this year that didn't involve shoveling snow. I also walked around the island for a while and picked up little quarried rocks from the old stonecarving site near the railroad tracks. I'm thinking at some point of hitting a garden store and getting new plants and perhaps some kind of small garden-gargoyle. Domestic bliss, baby...
Also,the Sweeties were over at my place for dinner, and we made mussels in wine sauce...I love making that dish so much:) And before dinner we were watching the Jonathan "The Impaler" Sharkey documentary. It was massively entertaining, though often heartbreakingly sad for people who were in the guy's life. I've known a handful of people like that, like most of us have--the swaggering loudmouth bullies,the ones that just seem to make these humongous messes out of everybody's lives, and can't or don't choose to be self-aware enough to think about what they're doing... I kept yelping out things during the show, things like, "Hey, stop micromanaging her blood-ritual!" "Ohmigod, he just bit himself on the arm!" "Wait a minute--That's MY BEDSPREAD from Hot Topic he's wearing as a cape!" "Dude, American flag t-shirts just don't go with green pants!" It's a wonder someone didn't put a canvas bag over my head and sit on me until I shut up...
Anyway, apparently my point is something along the lines of, "Documentaries about crazy bullies make me grateful for my wierd and happy little life..."
