And So It Begins

the wedding season is off to a late start for me. i hope this doesn't turn into a yearly thing. i don't know how many times i can recycle dresses.

i will be working this next wedding. i like working weddings now. no, i'm not talking about the side hobby of "making friends" at a wedding. for some reason they tend to expire or are only good the day of. i've been assigned the welcome table. i wish i could say it's because i'm a good greeter but my current status got me this gig. yes, being single does have it's perks. you get to sit up front and have first look at the merchandise. that was a pretty terrible thing to write but it's true.

i hate to disappoint but as you know i don't perform in front of a live audience. also, the brain is kinda slow for me here. i don't realize i like someone until it's too late. oh and i currently am feeling bleh about dating.

i got my wedding invite in the mail today for drew and syche's wedding. the inner envelope was labeled "den". What does that mean? Oh, the J and E got connected and looked it looked like the word "den".

since i'm on the topic of weddings. i had a dream about one. so, do u want to hear it? if not just stop reading. ok i'll go. in this dream i haven't seen laurie in weeks. i think i just came back from china. i finally see her and she shows me her wedding invites. dale's name is not on the invite. before i can ask her what's up she disappears. drew tells me that laurie is marrying some random guy. throughout the dream i'm trying to find out what happened but i can't. transformers are squatting in my house and they're trying to kill humans for forcing them to live in shanty towns. the neighborhood was overgrown with trees and parts of town were now underwater. i managed to stun a robot by hitting him in the head with a converter box. i end up in serramonte and it's five floors now. oh and the Niners won the superbowl so everybody is wearing red and gold. Crazy right? I know the team has been doing well so far but wow.

TV --> Memory + Happy

it's been said tv rots the brain but i don't think that's true. if anything i think tv preserves mine. why do i say this? is this post being sponsored by some major network? (hey if someone were to offer a sponsorship i would not decline. adulthood is expensive, seriously).

recently i find myself having problems remembering things. granted this could due to old age and fatigue. i deduce that since tv is no longer stretching my brain to its limits my brain has gotten lazy. tv bombards us with so much at once the brain must work quickly to process it. since i have to find ways to fill the time there is no time for my brain to recoup at the end of the day. it doesn't take a whole lot of effort to sit and absorb stuff. i think tv is what i need to reboot my memory.

i think tv also calms my nerves. i listen to music, read and journal but there's just something about tv that is so calming to me. my parents and i get into weekly "loud discussions" now. my parents pointed out that i wasn't so quick to anger before.

i'm not sure how i will test this out.

anyone want to buy me a flat screen tv? i'll remember stuff and will be less angry if you do.
