25 who-jimmy-whats-its

Hello, hello!

I'm drunk and posting, good times. I'll try and keep the typos to a minimum as always...but I'm not promising anything!

So Bobby, my dear friend Bobby, who I've never met but he lives in Muscat, tagged me to post 25 things. I think random things or maybe secrets but I'm not sure.

I think I'll post some truths and/or opinions.

1. I'm in Canada right now. Seriously and it's fucking freezing!

2. I think that Diet Pepsi in plastic bottles tastes wierd, but in cans it's good.

3. I got stood up tonight by some friends because they had a bad day...and they forgot about me...so they didn't call....so I ended up sitting in the bar with random people....who I still knew but not as well. I texted them this exact message - Hey you guys ditched me! Now I'm stuck here with THESE people...thanks - Angry. Then I felt bad.

4. I'm eating jelly beans.

5. I love jelly beans.

6. I love things covered in chocolate.

7. You can buy a lot of things covered in chocolate in Canada. Cherries, blueberries, pretzels (awesome with white wine), coffee beans, ju jubes, cashews, almonds, peanuts, raisins....Bridge Mixture anyone? I love them all..maybe it's a chocolate thing?

8. I'm listening to Can't Stop by Red Hot Chili Peppers...this life is more then just a read through indeed. Great song, couldn't find the right video.

9. I miss Small Fry and McFluffin.

10. Oh yeah and Cush!

11. I'm only on number 11...25 is a lot to ask of people really.

12. I miss super fast internet. I think my parents have the basic 8 MG (MB?) service... I say 8 is enough but you can get faster here, and it's dirt cheap. And there's no censoring so you can watch as much YouPorn as you want! Not that I do that...

13. My parents are not here and this house freaks me out when I'm in it alone. Especially when I've been smoking my special cigarettes, I think it's because the house is made of wood. Does that make sense? (I just re-read this...it made no sense...I think the wood creaks and makes the strange noises)

14. I just finished all my jelly beans and now I feel a bit gross. I have jelly belly for real. Aptly named...touche.

15. I've been wearing 2 of everything. Socks, shirts, pants (trousers, yo), gloves. It's terrible. My arm tan is fading.

16. I've gotten squishy. I had bronchitis since the beginning of January so I wasn't working out and now I'm eating nothing but chocolate covered foods and jelly beans, and Quaker rice products that masquarade as being somewhat healthy but they aren't really. Plus I've been buying healthy food too but...it's just not as enticing right now. What the fuck is wrong with me? I'm squishy! I used to be somewhat tight :( Where did my motivation go? Plus, I'm due to wear a short dress when I get back to Muscat and my calves look like small hams (no nipples). Fuck.

18. It's not as cold as I think it is. I remember hearing this story about a family who took a wrong turn and ended up getting their car stuck in the snow and then the guy walked to find help and he died, and I can't imagine how that happened, unless he wasn't clothed for the elements or something. I mean really, walking 10 km in -20 temps was my typical winter Saturday when I was a teenager. I am struggling a bit, but I'm alright. Really just my face is cold.

19. Now I'm listening to Boys In The Bright White Sports Car by Trooper. Trooper are Canadian, like me. That makes them awesome, like me. :P

20. Sometimes old friends aren't as good as new friends. I don't even know how this is possible. Cush messaged my "best friend" out of the blue to let her know I was coming home, I think I had just decided and went to bed and he saw her online or something, and she was all like, I have a crisis right now. And Cush was like, what crisis? And BFF was like, duh the earthquake! So, while I agree that's important, I also think it's important to priortize. Like, for example, people I know vs. people I don't know. Should I be more worried about people in Haiti or Peru or whatever or people that I was friends with for years? Maybe that's a bit black and white...but man... I still haven't had a reply to the email I sent her July 25. She can get fucked. FUCKED. My new friends are awesome. Way more awesome.

21. I'm having a love affair. With my favorite radio station. In fact if my favorite radio station had a decent sized penis, I'd marry it. 102.1 The Edge, seriously. It's the shizzit fo rizzo. Oddly I might have just made it sound as though they play rap music, but in fact they play new rock, aka alternative, which is better then rap any day of the week. I wish there was a radio station in Muscat like them. Then I may not be such a miserable bizatch sometimes. Music..it's all about the music. On The Edge they had this little segment about the evolution of new rock and how it progressed from metal, to something, to ska, to electronica, to whatever and so forth and I found it really interesting, even though I can't remember what came after electronica. Check out their webby here if you're interested.

22. 25 things is a lot. I don't think I have anymore in me without getting really personal.

23. I'm wearing black undies.

24. I'm also wearing black socks...2 pairs ...stop the whistles now. Feel free to indulge in deviant sexual fantasies.

25. I've been smoking in front of the fire place, don't tell my parents.

I don't really want to tag anyone because I think 25 things is way too many things. I really struggled. But I'm drunk, so maybe that's just made things upstairs a bit slower. Can I do a general tag where if you're reading this and you have blog you're tagged? Maybe I can do whatever the hell I want. You are tagged! Yes you. Go do it now.

Just kidding.

I feel full of love. I just want to tell everyone I love them.

......

I love you!
