It's been a while since I saw a good musical.

Do dyslexic-insomniac-agnostics stay up all night wondering if there really is a dog?

I really like toast with cinnamon and sugar. It has to be made the right way. First you have to butter the toast, and of course the butter has to be soft and has to melt completely. (And don't even mention the word margarine.) Then you have to sprinkle on the cinnamon. Not mixed with sugar, just the cinnamon. Then you put on the sugar. You have to put on a little extra, and leave on exactly how much sticks when you shake off the excess. One day I was given a shaker for mixing cinnamon and sugar and sprinkling in on toast. I needed this like I need another hole in my head. You just can't make cinnamon toast that way. It doesn't work. I don't know why, but it just isn't the same. Now, what I can't figure out is why someone would give me such a thing, especially without asking me first whether I would like to have it. First of all, if I wanted it I would have just gone out and gotten it for myself. Okay, maybe I didn't know they had them. So why not ask me if I would like to have one, then? I would think about it for a second, and then say "No, it wouldn't work." Instead someone decides it would be a nice surprise to give me one of these things. A nice surprise my ass. Here I am thinking "what a waste of money," but instead I have to say "Oh, how thoughtful of you. Thank you so much." The whole Christmas giving and receiving thing is just about the most painful exercise in stress and guilt I can imagine. And it happens every year. Oh joy. (I am not a Christian, and why I am expected to take part in this thing is something that baffles me, but that is another story.) First there's the stress of finding the right gifts for everyone so they will feel you care about them enough to take the time to think about the right gifts. How should I know what someone wants? If they want something, they should go get it. Certainly they shouldn't trust me to figure out what they want. I sure as hell don't trust them. (Remember the cinnamon shaker.) I will be perfectly happy to pay for something, and also to go out and get it, if someone wants it. But for some reason I am expected to figure out what they want, too. So they can be surprised, I guess. Surprises are not generally good things. When a surprise is good, people refer to it differently than to your typical unpleasant surprise. "I was pleasantly surprised." Most surprises suck. "A pair of bunny rabbit slippers! What a surprise!" Isn't Christmas morning a treat? I can't decide which is worse, waiting for my victims to open their surprises so I can read the disappointment on their faces, or pretending to be pleasantly surprised at the crap they have wasted their money on for me. I would be perfectly happy to take the money and go out and get the things I really want, but instead I have to act like I am thrilled to get yet another pair of bunny rabbit slippers. And to top it off, there's the incredibly stupid tradition of wrapping up these surprises in decorated paper, and then ripping it off and throwing it away. Who thinks these things up? And why do people keep doing them, year after year?

But what about Cinnamon Toast Crunch?



There's cinnamon and sugar swirled all over every bite, for a totally intense taste you can see!

Wow... how random. I have a few things to say... none too shocking like my last post.

1) Shrek 2 was pretty good, at times it felt like a Scooby Doo episode but it made me laugh.

2) GW Bush is an idiot that stole the White House, and the people want it back. And this time, it's political!

3) Michael Eisner is a dick. No other way around it.

4) I just bought Teenager Of The Year and I haven't stopped listening to it. Me wantie more Frankie!

5)By the way things are going, the USA will be the next USSR. Americans need to wake the fuck up!! We're being robed of our freedom and the majority doesn't seem to notice or care. How un-American, that's right I said!!

6) Poopy.

But that's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

Bush isn't giving the White House back! If he loses the election, he's going to fly it back down to Texas with him.

What if dreams were the real world and our waking hours were illusion? Maybe we make up this sensible world to keep from going insane because we can't handle reality. Does anyone know for sure?

I have thought about this before fudd. I'm not sure how I would react if that was the case. I guess it would be pretty scary, but kinda cool!!!

neat thing I learned this week-end:

I don't have the "asparagus pee gene" - apparantly there is a recessive gene that gives people the ability to smell asparagus in their own and other's urine.

Do dyslexic-insomniac-agnostics stay up all night wondering if there really is a dog?

My husband can't smell skunk, the lucky bastard. I don't get to share my frequent distress (we live in the country) with anyone.

what also trips me out, horticulturally, are plants that don't seed. like ivy. you can't buy ivy seeds and grow ivy. you have to get it already sprouting.

was there a seed for seedless plants at one time? and if not, where the fuck did they come from?

That's a gene?! Crazy. It's the most foul urine smell ever, btw. You're a lucky bastard.

Maybe if it's recessive, that explains why people didn't get my joke in the movie theatre. I don't remember the movie, but there were a bunch of women sitting around talking about what food their husband eating gives the best tasting head. One of the ladies said it might be pineapple juice or tomatoes or something, and I said, asparagus. To no reaction. At least people could've thrown nibs at me.

Yeah, apparantly, my friend told me she can smell it even if the person has left the bathroom like 10 minutes earlier. Sounds gross, I'm glad I don't have it.
