Is it really so strange?

E-word,

I say no, you say yes but you will change your mind!

So, I got back from Seoul last Saturday. El is still there, so I am not being terribly useful, I'm afraid. I realize that half the shit, actually all the shit I strive for are because of her, and if I weren't married I wouldn't give two fucks about my career and would likely be laid the fuck off right now and probably fairly happy. I guess it's a good thing I'm married! This is the shit I think about while I'm driving to work. Career success? What the hell, I don't care about that. I really don't. I just worked, did barely above the minimum, just kept my nostrils above the waterline. Since I've married I've strove to blah blah blah, who says strove anyway, striven, etc.

I had a pretty strong beer tonight. The damn thing cost ten dollars. It's called World Wide Stout and Dogfish Head Ale makes it. What the flying fag, ten dollars, I mean really. It has pretty high alcohol content at least, so I'm happy? It's probably safer to say I'm flushing.

Man, where am I going with this. My Friday has been pretty exciting. I mowed the lawn a second time this season. My lawn is so stupid big it took nearly two freaking hours. I should have really hired someone to mow my darn lawn, but I'm like principally against shit like that. I don't really take great pleasure in mowing my lawn, well, actually, maybe I do now that it's my damn house, man shit really changes in life, like, I care about shit. I care about my house looking nice and shit. I want to keep up with the Smiths and the Lowensteins and the Changs next door, I want the Jahabis to be pleased that my lawn is cared for, that I've done all the appropriate edging, etc.

After I mowed the lawn I took the stupid dog for a walk. I then came home and did nothing. Man, my Friday is rocking! Well, I drank that beer. I'm also craving an ice-cream sandwich. My life rules! Not! Does anyone say that anymore? How about sike? Does anyone say that? How about psyche?

I'm delirious! I'm a maniac! Let the good times roll!

OK! I'm ending this post because I'm not making sense!

Sayonara, Mothafucka!

Love,

Toe

Toe, man, no time to respond in full at the moment,but I love this post. It's like you were trying to express some sadness, at least on one level, but the happy flushed drunkenness prevented you from being anything but happy (albeit, a little cranky).

I hear you on the lawn. And the career striving. I am with you. No psyche, I swear.

amazing. this is the kind of thing i would look at the next day and have second thoughts about deleting. finally doing the blogger thing again (i think). need to find new motivations for life and i need to write. plus i'm just tired of my current routine.
