Driving in the middle of nowhere, between Dallas and College Station,
listening to Praire Home music, reading billboards like "stop the porn
and get reborn -Jesus", I can't help but love Texas.
I noticed something odd the other day, driving from San antonio to
Dallas. I listen to the radio a lot. No, that's not the odd thing.
What I noticed was that Dallas has so many more Mexican music stations
than San Antonio ever thought of having. Little Mexico is far behind
on it's English/Spanish ratio when it comes to the dial. In a city
with such a large illegal population, yeah I said it, you would think
they would own more space on the airwaves. The Spanish stations almost
equal the gheto ones. You all know the ones I'm talking about.
Stations that require the listener to have no more than four years of
education and an uncanny ability to butcher the English language. In
Dallas big booty dance music rules the radio.

Walking out of Target I overheard a man on the phone. He was standing
next to the endcap talking very exictedly. "I'm here at Target and you
wouldn't believe the deal I'm looking at. Three tubes of toothpaste
for four dollars. Yeah, and they're the big tubes. It's an awesome
deal...I know"

Sometimes I wish I was so easily excited. 99 cents for a bottle of
water? Sold! Think of how much each day would rock.

If it was the 18th century I would write an ode to my iPhone and I'm
sure a lot of people are with me on that one.

If you have an iPhone you know the spell check can be a little off at
times. Telling someone to duck off just doesn't have the same passion
that was intended. Today my phone finally started to get me. I mean
it's about time, we only spend 24/7 together. The word "dis", as in
"who is dis" is now an acceptable word. Him and I are now bff's, not
to be confussed with bffl's. That would just be akward. Who needs
guys? I got my iPhone. He won't be a jerk and is always there for me.
It's not an unhealthy relationship, I love my iPhone.

If we weren't dating and nowhere near a relationship, why does it feel like I just got dumped? You keep them at arms length, trying to keep emotions in check, then you let your walls down and they fall back. What gives? I get tired of being cynical sometimes but then stuff like this happens and I'm glad for my attitude. It keeps these times at a minumum and makes them worth the hurt. My friends keep saying stuff like, "they're a jerk, they don't deserve you" but if that was the case the whole situation would be much easier to deal with. The places have been reversed before, I know where they're coming from, I understand it all. Still doesn't make it easier.
I know it will go away, I know there will be others, other good times and other bad times. I get all that. I understand its not the end of the world, I don't need people telling me that or trying to be supportive. I'm ok...really. Just kind of a bummer when things don't work out how you would like. What a beautiful day out though. That always helps. ha

A family of four are sitting next to me at Whataburger. I'm sure it
started off as a good idea. The whole family going out together and
eating on Sunday. The thing is every one of them is talking on a cell
phone. They're all together but are all talking to someone not
present. I'm sure the parents sigh and wish they had more time
together and that the family's days weren't so hectic. That they had
more time together as a family and they're kids didn't grow up so fast.

I hate watching the news. I hate reading the headlines. It's all designed to scare the shit out of you. "Swine Flu Kills" "Ex-Cop Murders His Wife" "Are You Snoring Yourself To Death?" Basically you should be afraid to walk outside in public, without wearing a mask like an Asian business man. Run away from cops, well maybe only if your married to one. If that wasn't scary enough, don't go to sleep. You might be killing yourself by breathing at night. Yeah we all know bad news sells. Media tries to sensationalize everything and increase profits. Haven't they started to get a little carried away though? I know some really smart people who have started to buy into all this "end of the world" crap.

It's a good day. Didn't sleep much last night but I think I'll make it
through. Heading to work now. It's warm outside, a good hair day, and
nothing to complain about. Life is good.

I've been sick for a few days now. Runny nose and gunk. No fever, no aches, none of that stuff. I finally broke down and went to CVS for some drugs. I hate getting drugs, so rather just chug orange juice. I think I totally freaked out the clerk though. I walk in wearing pj bottoms and a sweatshirt. He's probably thinking, " great, here comes sicky with his Mexican Swine Flu and he's gunna kill us all." I don't have swine flu, everyone keeps asking me that or running away when I sniffle. I won't kill you I promise. Damn I hate being sick, it totally sucks.
