Recent ramblings

I wrote the first two pages or so of a book while on the bus the other day. I had a small notepad, and managed to fill up a lot of it with something that came to mind. I figured that I should write it down before it left my head forever. I'll put it up a little later, when I have time to write.

Headed to work monday night, I saw three people with plates of food in Queen Anne. Not paper plates. China. Complete with silverware. None of them were together.

I found a studio apartment downtown that is furnished, all utilities paid, for $595 a month. I want. It's right across from the Space Needle. I'm skeptical about the price. There must be a catch. I'm applying for one of the units anyway. I really want to live downtown.

Crazy girl that wants me to be her boyfriend suddenly reversed her point of view, and told me that she "has no desire to ever date" me. This is the exact opposite of what she's been telling me for the past 6 months. She thinks I've been playing games with her. I don't do that. I have been telling her what the deal is the entire time. I haven't changed position on anything. The only factor is that she does exactly the opposite of what I ask her to do.

 Been watching Cheers for a few days on Netflix. I love that show. I just wish they had Night Court. That show was great.

Went to Crypticon last weekend. I met Dee Wallace and Richard Keil. Dee was a sweetheart. Got really drunk, just like I do every convention.

Not much else to talk about. My life is pretty boring.

I did my part, now I'm done

This past Friday, I did the dumbest, yet most responsible thing that I have ever done in my life:

I got a vasectomy.

That's right kids. No more ginger babies for me. I've decided that one was enough. Don't get me wrong. I love my daughter, and I'm glad that I had her. She is wonderful.

But, I think everyone will agree that I really shouldn't have more kids. There are too many irresponsible parents out there, and I know that I'm one of them. So, I took the permanent and more financially responsible route.

There may be people out there that think that I should not have done it, and I respect their opinion. Hell, even the doctor seemed like he was trying to talk me out of it.

So, I can't have sex until this Friday. That's not really a problem, though, since I'm not getting laid anyway. I still have to use condoms for the next month and a half, just to be sure. Then, I go back to the clinic with a sample, and they determine if I'm officially "firing blanks".

I'm not going to go into the procedure. If you want to know, look it up, or get a hold of me. I'll tell you all about it.

I'll even give you a referral, if you want.

I've seen this link several times, and finally watched it. For some reason, I think it's incredibly awesome.

Am I the only one who wants to side with this guy? I mean, Phoenix Jones is cool and all. I appreciate that he helps out as much as he can. He's great.

But there's just something about a guy with an eyepatch and a handlbar mustache. Even if it's fake.

Plus, this guy is obviously a geek. The production value of this video alone shows that.

Inheritance, bus adventures, and vasectomies

Not much happens in my life. It's pretty boring, so I don't write much. However, there have been a few things happen recently.

I just received my inheritance check. It's almost more money than I've ever had in my life. I've had several people ask me what I'm going to do with it. Firstly, I'm going to pay off my debts. I owe a few people money. I have also looked up my credit report. I also want to get a few fun things for myself, like a new bed, but for the most part, I'm going to save most of that money.

A couple of times in the past week, I've had a strange thing happen to me. I was on the bus, heading to work, minding my business, when some guy got on, and sat down right next to me. Normally, that wouldn't be a problem, except there were MANY other seats open. This guy really smelled bad, too. When we got downtown, people kept getting off, and nobody got on. However, this guy didn't move. He just kept sitting next to me, occasionally glancing at me. Perhaps he was trying to see what I would do. So, a couple of stops before the one I wanted, I stood up to get off the bus. He wouldn't move. He just kept looking at me. So, I shoved him out of the way, and got off the bus.

Yesterday morning, the same thing happened. Different guy, though. Plenty of seats, he sits right next to me. Other people got on the bus, and halfway home, another guy asked this dude a question about where something was. The guy next to me was extremely rude, and raised his voice. The second man, got off at the next stop. When I got downtown to catch my other bus, I said "excuse me" and stood up to get off the bus. He didn't move. He just stared at me like I wasn't speaking English. I repeated myself, but he still wouldn't move. So, I pushed HIM out of the way, and got off the bus. I don't know what the hell is going on lately, but people on the bus suck.

Also, I'm scheduling an appointment to get 'snipped'. That's right. I'm looking into a vasectomy. I've made a ginger, and my family will live on. That's good enough for me. Plus, I don't want to have any more kids. I know, that may make it so a woman that I get involved with won't want to be with me. So be it. That's what I want, and anyone who can't deal with that isn't worthy of being with me.

Oh, and something random.

I had a dream the other day. I usually don't dream. I had a puppy. It's name was Scotty. It was a little Sky Terrier. I don't know why I had that dream. But now, I want a puppy.
