Cold feet

As you probably know I just got married. But there was one scary incident just before I did. I was sitting at home one day just thinking about my marriage and so on, basically the usual, 1 girl for the rest of your life and commitment and stuff, and I stated to feel something. I couldn’t quite place it but it was an uneasy feeling. I was starting to cringe. I had cold feet!

I was just begining to panic and my sis walks in. I told her I was thinking about the marriage and I had cold feet. So she turned off the AC and I felt better. Stupid AC.

We learned to ADD

So lately I realized that most of my friends have ADD (Attention deficit disorder, for those who are wondering if that meant that they can count). Sometimes I talk to VR and he says 1 thing, then he says something completely different. Has nothing to do with what we were discussing before. And other times we are talking and he asks something and I reply and after a few minutes he asks the same thing again and doesn’t remember our previous conversation. I got thinking and realized he isn’t the only one who is this way. A lot of my friends are the same. Maybe I just hang out with a bunch of weirdoes, which is partially true, but there is more to it.

And then it hit me. It’s work. I sit at work and I am supposed to work. But the crap I do is so retarded, I wonder why I went to 10 years of school, 2 years of high school, 4 years of engineering and 2 years of graduate school to do this. Anyway, what I was getting at was the fact that every little thing distracts me. Someone talking next to me, IM’s blinking, checking email every 2 seconds, surfing for that plasma TV I wanna buy for the last 2 years. I mean everything. I start out working and then I’m like “hmmm� I should see if I can remap my keyboard”. Why would a sane man want to remap his keyboard?

Anyway, the point I was getting at was that if you don’t distract yourself to think “out of the box”, you will probably kill yourself or someone else at work someday. Or better yet, in the famous words of Milton (Office Space) “I’m… going to burn down the building”.

So my dear retarded friends, it’s not your fault. It’s Initech and those crappy ass TPS reports.

blogThis comes alive

Personally I think blogging is over rated. I mean really, I have no life and yet I blog. Sure enough, someone will read my thoughts and my everyday activity. Clearly this person has no life either. It’s not like I am writing about how to pick up girls at the club or something. Seriously, if I knew, I’d be doing that rather than writing the blog. Oh wait, I’m married. Sorry VB, didn’t realize you might read this. Well for future reference, don’t.

Anyway, I am really excited about my blog. Yay! My own blog. Who would have thought! Now I can write down everything I’ve ever wanted to say. Speak my mind. (Thinking…) I just realized I don’t have a lot to say.

I promise to keep my blog site entertaining. At least for the dumbass retards who will read this. In fact, I think this need to be a rule for blogging. Okay, so

Rule #1: This blog needs to be entertaining for retards and dumbasses.

Feel free to create rules of blogging and I will maintain that.

As for where we are headed, I think my first course of action will be to do justice to the best movies ever. My dear friend ak0209 (who until yesterday, I had never met or interacted with directly) has cruelly taking his passion for Van Wilder and hate for VR to the next level. We need to settle the score here. If you don’t understand what I am talking about, why are you reading this?
