Connections
Sometimes out of nowhere, you end up in a conversation that you didn’t see coming. Needless to say, this happened to me.
It all started with a “hey are you around” and suddenly we were discussing bloggers, templates, watermelons and anal sex and hot gay cat sex. Yeah, hot gay cat sex. Don’t ask.
I found myself hanging on every word, every single sentence that was posted. Thank god I pay close attention to yahoo. I don’t miss much. I completely appreciate yahoo, and the folks on it SO much more suddenly.
When you get to know someone through a blog, you are really just scratching the surface. Sure, that’s obvious but seriously, can you picture some of the things I’ve explained about myself? The fact that I sing in the shower and have 80s hair, sure you can see me jamming to KISS, Motley Crue and Jackyl, but did you honestly picture me as a cross stitching, book loving computer nerd?
Hardly.
So when this conversation was started, I thought I had a good idea on the person I was speaking to, but little did I know that we were embarking on a conversation involving gay cats, watermelons and how to avoid them if you want anal play/sex and um, man-ginas. I had NO clue I’d be laughing so hard that I would have to run to the bathroom to pee or else flood my office chair with piss.
I’ve sat here for over an 3 hours laughing and sitting in amazement at the person I’m discovering. The other person on the end of the yahoo box has taught me much already but to see a totally new side of the person was just flat out incredible.
The sharing laid back person inside me wants to tell you who it was, because the person is amazing, insightful and extremely intelligent. On the other hand, I don’t want to share the person with anyone. You should take the time to discover for yourself, like I have.
Our conversation had to have changed topic at least 15 times. We would just move smoothly from one thing to another with little or any difficulty. We asked each other questions, explored and picked a part stories and had several very good belly laughs.
My day is vastly improved since speaking with the person. It was exactly what the Dr would have ordered, even Dr Deb. :D
Other than my stimulating yahoo conversation, I have tinkered with my new cell phone. I have it all switched around and now Lauren has my old one for her use. I was able to flip my number so it was a seamless transition. She doesn’t have any airtime yet but she will soon enough.
I was going to get ready to go to Kalamazoo today but it seems that Shawn is running extremely late. The shoe repair shop is already closed so I will have to wait until next week to get my Dr Martens sandals back. I had hoped to hit Bath & Body Works today as well to get my pillow mist. I’ve been out for months and the other stuff I use just isn’t cutting it so I was going to get mine since its on sale for 50% off. (They are reissuing the mist with a new bottle and label). But instead, I am sitting here, bored outta my mind.
The kids are in playing their new DS games that I got them yesterday. They are having a ball relaxing in the cool air conditioning and checking out the games. Lauren got Nintendogs Lab & Friends and Logan got Yoshi Island. As for me, I grabbed a game on sale to use on the kids DS’ when I get my hands on them. I wanted Mario Vs Sonic @ Olympics. Of course, I want a DS of my own. I want the Guitar Hero special edition one with the new Guitar Hero On Tour game. I am a music junkie and that game is right up my alley. Plus, I’ve never owned anything like a DS. Hell I never even had a Gameboy. I feel like I’m missing out on a whole new world of gaming. I’ve completely given up EverQuest (years ago) and I don’t even DJ much anymore. I’d like a little something of my own to be able to curl up and play. Most of my friends are on either Worlds of Warcraft, Stars Wars, Guild Wars, Never Winter Nights or they have Nintendo DS’ or even a PSP. I feel left out.
Shawn even got a couple of games for the PS2. He likes to sit in there and play but I’m not much of a fan of doing that. I’d rather curl up alone in my favorite chair and play solo then have to be in front of the tv to game. Last night, the kids were on their DS’ and Shawn was on the PS2 and I sat alone in the living room with the lights off looking out the window. Thrilling eh?
Note the obvious digression in my mood. I had a call from Laura about something happening at work and found out I only work 1 day next week. Joy. To top that off, the posting in the store regarding a position thats open that I was going to apply for, I was pretty much told to not waste my time. We just discussed that and now that my ego is back to being battered I think I’ll go curl up with a movie and a Breyers Yo Crunch yogurt.
All this plus the fact that I fought with someone else yesterday, .. my weekend just fucking sucks.


Hmmm maybe I should turn on my yahoo once in a while and give you a buzz.. who knows where’d it go. Your post almost makes me think reaching out more and talking, even via yahoo, might led me to a better place. Anyway, I am really glad your bad mood improved and you are on the path to a great yahoo connection that you enjoy :)
