Weather

I’ve always been fascinated by Lightning and storms.  There’s just something mystical and enchanting about them that I love.  Wouldn’t want to get caught out in one of course, but still.  Thunder is pretty neat too, but not nearly as cool as lightning. Thunder can blow out your ears, Lightning can kill you.  Really, Lightning doesn’t need to hit you, the heat it generates could fry you like an egg, but with the rain that normally accompanies storms, odds are good you’ll get hit if it’s that close.

Rain is good sometimes, but more often than not, you’ll just get wet and be miserable.  At least it isn’t snow, really hard to push stuff through snow. Plus it’s cold when it snows, and cold weather sucks like a vacuum.  I hate the cold, makes me wanna make like he birds and migrate somewhere warmer…

Summer is too hot though, maybe I just think that because I work out in the heat all day, I don’t know.  90 degree weather, dripping sweat like a faucet, feels like I’m dying out there, and going inside is no help unless you got A/C.  I love me some A/C, nice cold air on a hot ass day, nothing better.

Spring and Fall have to be my favorite seasons.  The weather is nice, not too hot, nor too cold, can wear short-sleeves and jeans, just a nice break in between the blaze of summer and the icy Winter, just near perfect weather, and I love it.

Gardening Brilliance?

I sometimes think that when it comes to ideas I’m way ahead of my time.  For instance, I got drafted to help the lovely people in the Lawn and Garden section of Walmart today, which is different than my normal job of pushing carts.  While I was helping, I couldn’t help but think that a good way to have a flower garden would be to buy one of the cheap kiddie pools, fill it with the Miracle-Gro and Top soil, then plant your flowers or whatever in it, makes for easier watering, plus, you can move it somewhere else if the weather suddenly shifts.  I don't think I'll ever try it, I have this tendency of killing any and all plants i own.  If it has Chlorophyll, odds are good I'm gonna end up killing it.  It sounds like a good idea, but I want to hear your opinions on the matter.  Do you think it sounds like a stroke of genius?  Or am I all wet?

Music

I’ve come to realize that I really like videogame music. Like REALLY like it, it consists of over 50% of my music folder.  It’s mostly from various NES and SNES games like Super Mario and Donkey Kong, but I also have some obscure-ish ones like Gun. Smoke.  I also think almost anything from Final Fantasy is good, so I have some of that too.  Asking myself why I prefer videogame music over regular music, I answer that it’s because not only are they good tunes, but I can apply them to all sorts of scenarios that I conjure up in my head daily.  I also favor simpler ones like NES and Gameboy because they are in the Mono format so I can hear all of it with just one earbud in.  I listen like that because people like to talk to me while I’m listening to music, and Stereo style means I’ll miss some of the song, making it sound weird.  This not to say that I don’t enjoy regular music, I do, but I’ve found that I’m rather picky about that kind of music, and people take their music choices too seriously, which is another reason I like VGM (Video Game Music, just in case you weren’t aware), people can hate, but I like to think that people like me are an elite corps of musical connoisseurs, but then again, I think different than other people, so I suppose I might be alone in this thinking.

Easter...from a....Different point of view

Hey everyone, did you have a nice Easter?  I know I did.  Got to see family rarely seen, which is always a good thing.  Been sick the past few days, so that’s why I haven’t been writing.  Hard to concentrate when you feel like you are coughing up a lung ya know?  Anyway, Easter always seems to be rather like Christmas, a proverbial war between Jesus and Santa for Christmas, Easter, however, has a giant Bunny that hides eggs.  This is also the only time of year that we see the Cadbury Bunny and his chocolate eggs.  I never understood the Easter Bunny and the need for hiding eggs, especially where it relates to Zombie Jesus.  That’s right, I said Zombie Jesus.  Anyone who is dead and rises after three days, especially since he bled so much he ran out of blood, is a zombie.  While I’m the subject of the supernatural, drinking his blood does make us partly vampires, I don’t care what y’all say.  I haven’t yet figured out how to justify the eating of his flesh…Oh wait, cannibalism, nevermind…Yeah, Christianity is odd sometimes, but that’s just part of faith innit?  But I’m getting off track, I’m talking about Easter.  I grew up with the Easter Bunny, only recently did I learn about what Easter was really about, and I have a skewed version of it, just as I do in almost everything….

Yuri Nater? Yuri Nater? My mouth is begging for a Yuri Nater!

I think I’ll share something about myself that y’all might not know.  I LOVE puns.  I think in all honesty that humor has no higher calling than puns, I love them all.  From the simple to the ridiculous, there are not many puns I don’t like.  Like all comedy, it’s all about the delivery, take a vampire setting for example, perhaps he’s dying to sink his teeth into something….get it? No? Aww….

Tree humor is another of my favorites.  I’m gonna go out on a Limb and Leaf this with you, Wood you mind holding it for me?  Just gonna go Rowan down the river, maybe Branch out a little, I don’t know…

Name humor is always good too, Like Mike Rotch (My Crotch) , Seymour Butz (See more Butts) , I.P. Freely (shouldn’t need to translate this one) , Al Coholic (Alcoholic) , Jacques Strap (Jock Strap) , Hugh Jass (Huge Ass) , Amanda Hugginkiss (A man to Hug and kiss) , Maya Normusbutt (My emormous butt), among others….Gotta love the Simpsons…

Food puns are good too:  Lettuce entertain you, Orange you glad I didn’t say banana?, Berry nice to meet you, My friend dropped his box of Italian pastries on the floor. I cannoli imagine what he must be going through, I can't drink milk. I lactose genes required to digest it, but the best ones are like this:  There was a fight in the candy store. Two suckers got licked, Did you hear about the lost sausage? It was the missing link, and last but not least, I was scrambling for another egg joke, but I can't seem to whip one up. Guess I'm a bit fried.

I think I’ve made y’all groan enough for one night, so I think I’ll stop here.

Greninja of Destiny

Arin rode the elevator to the top.  He didn’t know that the Pokemon League building was this high.  He arrived in the center of a chapel-like room, covered in stained glass, and just ahead of him, “Diantha.  I should have known it’d be you.”  “Hello Arin, so nice to see you again!  So, you have beaten the Elite Four, now it’s time to face the Champion.  Are you ready?”  Arin nodded, “Of course I am.  After all, I’ve traveled far and went through a lot of people to get here.  I think I’m more ready than I have ever been.”  Diantha smiles softly.  “Then let’s get started.”  She sends out her Hawlucha, Arin sends out his Greninja.  “Tobias, Ice Beam!”  Tobais fired off lightning quick hand signs and fired a beam of ice at Hawlucha, freezing it solid as well as knocking it out. “Impressive, let’s see how he handles this one, Goodra!”  “I don’t see how that’s gonna help you, but whatever floats your boat I guess, Tobias! Put that dragon on ice!!!” Tobias sent out Ice Beam after Ice Beam until the Goodra fell. Diantha giggles, “Lovely, how about this one?” she sent out Aurorus. “Hmmm…Tobias, Power-Up Punch!” Tobias closed the distance in a flash and punched Aurorus right under the chin, snapping its head back, knocking it out instantly.  “You are just adorable Arin, you and Your Greninja. Already half done with me and I haven’t even landed a strike on you yet. How about this one?” She sends out Gourgeist.  “Tobias, I leave this one to your judgement.”  Tobias nods and uses Ice Beam again, knocking out Gourgeist.  “Perhaps Tyrantrum will be able to do something.”  “Tobias….” “Greninja.” Lightning handsigns and an Ice Beam later, Tyrantrum was down.  Diantha sighs, “I have one last Pokemon to use against you.  I want to say that she’ll be th turn around, but with the way Tobias has been performing, I think he’ll have no trouble at all.  Do your best Gardevoir!”  Gardevoir emerged from her pokeball and started to glow.  “Mega Evolve!!!!!”  Gardevoir became Mega Gardevoir, “I know you have seen Mega Evolution before, but can you face one used by the Champion?”  Tobias, Night Slash.”  Tobias moved faster than anyone could follow and slashed Mega Gardevoir, after a few seconds, she dropped, ending the battle. “Merveilleux, excellent travail! You have defeated me and became the New Champion!!!!” And thus Arin and his Pokemon were immortalized in history as the Greatest Champions of all time.

Indiana Weather

Though I’ve never said it here, I’ve always told anyone who was willing to listen how much I hate the weather in Indiana, my home state.  The weather happens in such a way that it could be raining on one side of the street and sun shining on the other side.  I’ve been rained, snowed, sleeted, and hailed all within a span of like two hours.  The weather person is never right, so I’m never dressed for the weather, because I don’t know what the weather is going to be at any given time.  Now, if I worked inside, this wouldn’t be a big deal, but I work outside, so if the weather sucks, then it sucks to be me.  My continued exposure to the random weather has helped me adjust to climates that my family can’t handle.  This is usually reflected when it’s cold outside, they’re wearing coats, I’ve got a hoodie on.  They’re 3-4 layers thick, I’ve got 1 shirt on under the hoodie.  I hate Hoosier weather, I really do….
