So, this morning I was in the shower and I spent like 4 seconds scanning my shampoo bottle making sure it was infact, shampoo, then I thought about how much time I spend every day looking at the shampoo bottle to see if it is INFACT SHAMPOO! I do it every single time I shower, I should make like a designated place for each product, but it will quickly get all fucked up cause my brother is a slob... but anyways... So I went to my computer and calculated... I spend 4 seconds every day looking at the shampoo bottle... that means I spend like 24 minutes every year looking at my shampoo bottle! THAT MEANS IN MY LIFE TIME ILL SPEND LIKE 32 HOURS LOOKING AT A FUCKING SHAMPOO BOTTLE.
WTF.

Hmm.
My mom is going to New York to get her eye looked at tomorrow... Apparently when you have certain cancers; signs show up in your eyes, and some doctor thinks my mom has lung cancer... thus the point of her going to the supposed "best doctor in teh whole wide world" in new york. I always said as a joke "the only way Id quit smoking is if someone I loved got lung cancer", so, the rest is self explanatory.
Jesus Christ.
I dont know, it could be nothing.
I love mama bear.

Hmmm. I feel strange today. This weekend has been intense.
In good and bad ways I suppose?
I might not be blogging much in the near future.
I don't have much to bitch about...
oh, and, random thought...
its interesting how many different occurrences and complicated details go into certain the opinions we form... yeah thats it.

I see no progress in you. You say I pick fights... I approach you with a subtle, "lets fix this" attitude. You turn it into a fight with your harsh words and insults, blame it on me, then whine to a mutual friend claiming we gang up on you, thus turning you into the victim, correct? If your intentions are to get said mutual friend on your "side", we see right through it. I hate the words "mature" and "immature", I find them somewhat juvenile, but youre all about maturity, so ill be honest. We both know you are no where near where you need to be, so I would advise surrounding yourself with people at your level, it makes for a less embarrassing upbringing. For now, I think I'm done. I would really like to pick this back up on a later date, but right now all that is being inflicted upon me and those involved is pain and frustration. Maybe this makes me a shitty person, but I have to worry about myself before I worry about others, and you are taking up all my time.
Im sorry.
...
as for tonight...
hmmm. I will not be deprived of the distance I've come.
despite its inevitability.

Im really just numb to this whole deal.
I can keep saying that Im tired of trying, but I dont think anything is going to change any time soon.
There is no... trying or not anymore. We're going no where, and I think we will continue to go no where.
Yeah... it is depressing, so maybe thats why Ive trained myself to not completely care.
I really credit all of this to how easily I can accept disappointment or defeat or... anything not completely preferable.

I was editing a manuscript and found this fantastic entry.
read.
appreciate.
art: any form of expression.
Passing the Peace
Before students elbowed through
halls, her volkswagen escaped
the faculty parking lot.
She tapped Make Love Not War signs
on fenders after filling
up for Vietnam protests.
Mondays found her exhausted
but still intensely focused.
Anti-war pamphlets replaced
state literature guidelines.
Reminded that the district
included military
families, she spread index
and middle finger upright
and continued. How do I
know? As an advanced degree
mentor, I observed classroom
techniques of first year teachers;
critiqued management methods.
She missed planning times so I
wrote notes: Return test papers
ASAP. I poured words
out during lunch. Challenged to
remember that a 7th
graders emotions floated
thin skin surfaces, she laughed
I know. Kent State erupted.
University gales closed.
Riots stopped ceremonies.
Degrees arrived in mail tubes.
No longer mentor, kid's sports
and cleaning helped me through days.
Two weeks; then a local news-
paper tilted fragile worlds.
Handsome as a Watusi
warrior, reserved for thirteen,
a boy asked for graded tests.
She responded, Not ready!
He (words from the article)
told her if she finished work,
he'd have a grade average.
(again from newspaper...)
...The teacher slapped him across
the face. He returned the serve.
Across the hall a male
teacher opened his door, saw
perceived attack and with clenched
fists knocked down an A student.
(I read this. I wasn’t there)
Contacted in Vietnam
John’s dad agreed with offer.
an apology from both
teachers would end a sticky
situation. The next dsy
she called, wanted to see me.
I finally said, Of course
Her green wagon bounced along
our driveway. Inside, I asked
her to sit. She started with,
They all want me to resign.
I nodded, Don’t refuse. If
They fire you, no system will
ever offer a contract!
I didn’t tell her our three
Kids fielded verbal hits, some
more painful than body blows;
that we avoided TV
in fear of what we might see.
We both knew my husband fought
for everything she opposed.
Pale braids trembled, she drank tea;
At last seemed ready to leave.
Twenty three, green as her bug,
smiling through fingers, waiting
for me to return the sign,
did she know the word never?
instead mouthed, Go in peace...

Chris Brown and Rihanna, Real talk.
They were riding in the car and chris turned off the radio

she said shut up and drive
then they got out of the car and it was raining, but she didnt let him under her umbrella...

I went to Chincoteague with Cailtin, Shelby, and Josh Mosh today.
It was fun being there for 10 minutes...
we were driving into this "free parking" lot and Shelby was saying shes gonna take Caitlin to prom, so for dramatic effect I opened the car door and yelled "STOP THE FUCKING CAR" then shut it (end joke), but then Josh started laughing and I realized we were RIGHT in front of some old lady sitting on her front porch. Then... we went to pizza hut in onley... Then... we went back to my gmaz and sang happy birthday to my great aunt and gave her presentz. Then, I conned Caitlin into staying 10 minutes... but the whole ten minutes was me trying to convince her to say... thus me being a con-artist...
yiz.

I realized recently/today that almost everyone I knew in "the scene" has grown out of it and progressed.
Stress the word "almost".
Which lead me to think about psychological growth in general.
Which furtherly lead to me thinking about intellectual psychological growth.
THEN it lead to thinking about how those oh, so very high political figures and those who influence our world are always downing our generation. We are supposedly the most ignorant generation in the history of... well... history, but I have to disagree.
I believe in the times we're living in, simply because of social shifts EVERYONE wants to be an individual. EVERYONE wants originality. (It is scarce, but Im pretty sure it still exists) So I think everyone understands that personal views and opinions create personality (hopefully an interesting one will be determined with these views). NOW, to have personal views and or opinions... for them to be genuine, you must have knowledge. KNOWLEDGE. And I think everyone realizes this as well. So now we all have reason to pursue knowledge. So... does the fact that the reason for said pursuit is the far from noble make it any less... I dont know... Noble?
Should we be granted the gift of knowledge if all we really want out of it is more friends?... Or do we pursue such things so we like ourselves a little bit more?
I need more time to ponder.

"Smart People" was horribly depressing but fantastic... but horribly depressing...
Im on the shore. My dad is miserable. I want my brother. There is no food, but plenty of cigarettes.
Im editing a manuscript today.
That makes me feel really fucking cool.
jus sayin.

how can this classify as a problem
the silica problem...essentially...
okay, so silica is a compound (SiO2), the form of silica concerning this blog is (SiO4), for some reason (I might know more if i was paying complete attention in geology) silica in minerals requires certain elements to share silicas oxygen... geologist call this "the silica problem". So my question for the day is how does this classify as a problem? When one brings up a "problem" it implies there is a solution to be found, but if said solution already happens naturally doesnt that mean its not ACTUALLY a problem?
thoughts?
