This is the most hilarious thing I’ve seen in quite a while.

Making fun of self-published books is like finding lonely people at an Internet forum meetup. It’s not hard, and you can end up being mean to someone who just needs a hug.

The reason I wanted to highlight the book “Caffeine Killed My Family: Best Free Cure since Jesus Christ Himself” is for the author biography. Feel free to click on the title to read the author’s explanation of how caffeine detectors can save the human race, but this is the important part:

The author [ … ] would have gotten into medical school with 4.0 average. She is an athlete. She is good at eleven sports. She can also sing.

Tonight, I’m going to revisit being 14 years old and it’s going to be AWESOME. Mindless Self Indulgence is in town once again, and I will be there screaming and bouncing around like it’s 2007 all over again. Braces and socially awkwardness, here I come.

Well, this gal is going to Iowa. I expect to see a lot of corn, tractors, and Mexicans. YEEHAW SPARKY! This is going to be a fun, flat ride.

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY BRANDON BOYD! 36 eh? Still young but with much experience and wisdom under your belt. You’ve written many words that have both inspired me and brought to my attention that I’m not the only human who believes the things I do. A true artist, no question. I aspire to be half the master of words you are.

“You better take care of me, Lord. If you don’t you’re gonna have me on your hands.”

Today, I successfully completed Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, both novel AND film. Remarkably satisfying, I must say. I haven’t been that engrossed in a story for a long while, and I needed it. The perfect escape into a life unlike mine. I guess in a metaphorical sense, similarities are present. There’s a resemblance between Raoul Duke and myself, crazed writers searching for something beyond what they’ve already seen. But I’m not nearly as ballsy or comical, which is a given. Oh Hunter S. Thompson, there is a part of me that wants to be you…or the you you were before your death anyway. And Johnny Depp, you still look wonderful even as a baldy. Mission: SUCCESS!

This song gives me the warm fuzzies. It’s one of those songs that you can listen to on any type of day, at any time in said day, and it will fulfill you. I’d say my favorite is on a long stretch of road with an explosive sunset in my view. Truly amazing.

I miss my boyfriend. There’s only 20 minutes separating us and it’s been barely 48 hours since we last saw each other, but I miss him. There just aren’t any other talks like the ones we have. Call me a pathetic, hopeless girl, but that’s just the way it is.

Late Night Light Bulbs: Less Than 10 Percent

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 00:46:00 -0600

Sometimes, and more often than not, I cannot begin to grasp how extraordinary the human mind is. As a species, humans are capable of doing unimaginable things, but so few actually use the part of their brains that allow them to do so. Our imaginations and psyches are indescribably fascinating. And yet the majority of people I pass along my journey through life are two-dimensional. What is it that makes them so out of tune with themselves? Do they block their minds from thinking, for lack of a better term, out of the box? There should be no fear of exploring the depths within oneself. That’s the primary characteristic that distances myself and those I hold closest to me from general society. We breathe questions, analysis, observations, and theories. We push the limits of our brains to constantly learn about ourselves and the life engulfing us. The reasons this cannot be said about everyone walking this earth are unfathomable to me. What would stop one from desiring such? The fear of facing the grim realities? The need to be considered normal? Or just simply the art of doing things at their minimum capacities? Are people too lazy and/or busy to think anymore? Humans have traded their flesh and bones for engines and wires. Emotions are scarce, honesty is forced, and greatness is diminishing. True greatness to me is being in tough with the soul inhabiting your body and having no fear of sharing what is possesses. Tell a person how you feel about them, regurgitate an interesting fact you learned, discuss a thought you’ve been pondering about with another. That is what I admire; individuals whose true thoughts never cease and who grace others with their ideas. These people are artists, inventors, innovators, and philosophers. They are the type that are often ridiculed for their “unusual” ways of approaching and acting on things, merely because most of the world’s population chooses to take the shortcut. This is why we are accomplishing less as a country with each passing year. This is why copy-and-paste suburban towns are becoming more common than diverse cities, why fads are becoming epidemics, why the radio plays the same five “hits” on repeat day in and day out. We’re developing a phobia of thinking for ourselves. There’s an infinite number of excuses we could use for this, ranging from technology to the government, but ultimately it lies within our personal beings. We’re lacking culture, class, and understanding. Truthfully, I can’t say I believe it will ever change. It will worsen until eventually everyone will become spineless drones, living in identical homes, and wearing government issued uniforms. The earth will be blanketed by a sheet of grey clouds, white plumes bellowing out toward the heavens from the numerous towering smokestacks, and in the end it will be the perfect setting and character lineup for a Lois Lowry novel. Sounds more like “The Twilight Zone” to me, but who asked? I’m just one of those liberal free thinkers who believes in aliens and the self destruction of the human race. A looney bird like me can’t be trusted.

Some good tunes, a pen, and a blank page to take my aggressions out on.

Late Night Lightbulbs: On the Wire Connecting Our Hearts

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 03:58:44 -0600

I find it remarkable how humans connect and interact. some of the connections I have with certain individuals have no explanation, or one that is hard to find using basic earthly science. Either a relationship is meant to happen or it’s not, whether romantic or otherwise. This is something I have only recently discovered. When in youth, most people concern themselves with simply having companions no matter the intensity of the connection with the other party. It takes age for a person to neglect the desire to create bonds and just allow them to come naturally. My first example was brought to me upon entering my current relationship. As a pair, we have no need to alter ourselves to satisfy one another. It’s as if there is an unknown magnetic force between us. We run on the same wave length so to say. There have been times when I don’t have to open my mouth for him to know the thoughts within me. And this, I believe, is due to our natural for between us. And the same can be said for my friends and certain members of my family. I can’t help but think I am MEANT to have these people in my life, like a guiding force of the universe crossed my path with theirs for a specific reason. I’m not speaking of a god, but a force nonetheless. My companions that I share this connection with all entered the play of my existence at the most precise and perfect moments that it seems there must be an underlying script. Just as I was in need, in the depths of a conflict where a resolution was nowhere to be seen, one of these individuals would appear. and these people have expressed to me that I did the same for them. could this all be a formulated plan by something beyond ourselves? Or is it just my tendency to over-analyze coming into play once again? To me, some things can never be over-analyzed only because the earth and space around it contains a myriad of unexplainable phenomena. Therefore I will not cease to ponder on ideas and beliefs such as this, especially if they are brought to light as often as this particular thought. The bond I feel with a number of those I surround myself with is too powerful to conclude as coincidence. Something, somewhere must be bringing us together for a reason I do not know. It’s most likely extraterrestrials. After all, we are just a massive science experiment of theirs.

I’ve been in the mood to watch this lately. Nothing gets the gears turning behind my forehead more than these five men. They inspire me, and inspiration is exactly what I need right now. So let the madness begin!
