Mad and Confused
Titles are always a problem. First, the word titles reads titties to me, because sex is more important than English class or reading to me. Second, titles change. Look at the children growing up today. They all have ADD-focus-in-the-toilet and they swear too much. How can our kids, my generation, and the next set of kids to rules the planet cope with simple things like titles? Even Facebook has stupid email these days, there is even a website called email.com for emails! There is too much to know, too little time to look up, and our kids are stupid. I usually call myself stupid at the end of the day. Maybe it is because I am mad and confused about myself and the world?
I wanted to talk about smoking, comedy and not getting it. I smoked in the past, courtesy of the gateway drug my family. Funny thing, even with stress high as it was while growing up, I did not do drugs. I was in DARE, struggled with my homework, stared at girls, and hated the mornings. And then... I did smoke to be cool, basically. I was with my father or sister, or God-knows which family member and we peer-pressured me a stoke. Fond memories, I think. My memory is not linear or patchy, I just remember things based on emotion and context. As in, my emotion is chill now and was not then, but the context is right. So I remember some of this past. I do not like smoking much, but I do not hate it, because I do it much. If I could guard a cloud of cocaine as I bathed in a pool of heroin as a nuke headed my way while I was getting buzzed and high with several overly attractive girls to Bjork, I think I would be cool with that. Most people would not. I know, because I have asked too many since I was 13. I even remember telling my mom when I was 9 or so about wanting to be a drug dealer, just a joke and I did not even know what that meant, but we had cable.
Comedy, is great, no? I am at a weird point in my life where I could lose that spark that is comedy, but then again, do I have a knack for this world? It is too soon, only a few months in, and I haven't made it up to a big venue and failed. Right now, it is dozens of small milestones and hurdles till I get onto the next level. I see everything in three levels, especially my comedy. First level is the beginning stage, second is the medium, and the last stage is a form of retirement. It is a vague gauge I have, rule of three's either way.
I guess I can transition into not getting it. Not that I should get anything. I don't even get Halloween. I love it mainly because it involves my favorite threes: sweet, honey, bee. In only one order, to be precise. Sweet is the free goodies offered that day. Honey are the people out and about in outfits and open to unique conversation. Finally, bees are the stings for the night. For example, holding your ex-girlfriends hair back as she vomits for a second time into a toilet crying and screaming "I love you Shan" and then passing out on the bed like a dead cat as I shiver in the corner. Ya, the stings make the sweet delicious and the honey worth it. Although, I have no plans for this Halloween. I was going to dress up as a Terrorist, but with weekend work and some personal affairs. Aka hanging with my cat now moved inside and dealing with a drug-hangover, I had my hands full.
So, I don't get my words, my writing, or people and that is OK. Sometimes, we just live, and leave the thoughts to other people. September was the month to absorb, and October was the month to accept. I have a feeling November will be the month to connect. I hope my mad Sun and Confused moon.
