Post #7- Keep the Stream Alive...

Tuesdays, I dont know what about them makes them so annoying. Its like out of all the other days I'm usually most disappointed by tuesday. Monday I expect to be annoyed by so therefore I get what I am expecting, but Tuesday. Oh Tuesday. Shame on you.
I've been doing a lot of driving lately and I often find myself thinking about what I want to be, and sometimes it evens goes so far as me talking to myself as if I was me- from the future. This may sound crazy and in my defense- it completely is, my god save me! Any ways I'm usually some big time CEO at a make believe company named Todd Co. and although if you've been my friend for some time you would know, this company has been (not) established for at least a handful of years already. So among these years and years of being a well respectable company I have yet to know what it does. Do we manufacture shoes, sell snow globes with flamingos in them that say "welcome to florida"? So in other words I'm crazy, and I'm completely inefficient as well. Really what I think I'm doing is perpetuating myself as some separate entity so that I may more accurately define myself. To this I say... Hi my name is Todd, and I am a suffering lunatic.
Further I digress, because today I was walking across my lawn and I imagined myself as a blade of grass. To further enable my mind I walked inside and laid down where I actually fell asleep. Nonetheless, I was a blade of grass. People came and went not really caring about my existence. Bugs even scurried by just whispering to one another saying how it was a nice day. I remember trying to well say "Hey, how are you... I'm a blade of grass", but I had no mouth. The main point here is that there wasn't really much to do as a blade of grass and I felt really useless there which is probably why I fell asleep. I don't even like the color green all that much, and left me to hate my grassy self. Then I woke up to my dad flashing the lights on and off in my room.
On to more complete irrelevance, I attempted to make Pesto Pasta today. An idea sparked from eating at a friends house and it was really good! Her mother sold it to me as simple, easy, just whistle out your window and all the birds and wildlife will enter and do it for you as we all sing a song! Delightful, I thought- I may have to do some extra vacuuming but I like animals... Pesto Pasta it is. Although I had no actual recipe I considered it a quest... I AM ON A QUEST! I jumped in Sherrie (my car) and set out to the nearest Publix. Surely it was destiny, because at Publix shopping is a pleasure and according to mama pesto it was indeed supposed to be a rather fulfilling experience. "la la la la" I giggle with glee as I sautéed a variety of wonderful things not forget of course the most secret ingredient, which of course was pesto, never would have guessed. "OOO HE HE HEE" The pasta is boiling- just as I planned. I pranced about the kitchen much like spongebob in the first episode where he makes Krabby Patties for the first time. Finally, the quest was complete! To be completely frank and to cut down the time of this story, it tasted just shy of old white dog poop. Needless to say, I failed at making pesto... but there will be a day when I succeed and all will rejoice and sing my name!
In other news, I'm watching someone literally take apart an iPhone. I was scared at first because I did not want to witness the man melt in front of me like Indiana Jones when they opened the arc of the covenant, and although I'm certain if they continue it will indeed, it has not happened yet. Speaking of people melting I was skimming news update headlines some time ago and I stumble across "People melting for global warming awareness in germany". Wow, talk about commitment, you believe in global warming so much that you would literally melt yourself to get your point across... talk about irony. I clicked, really not so much for the read but praying they had pictures. Well, to my dismay I misread the headline in the first place, but just incase you are interested anyway. People Melting... HA.
Well, I'll let you know if anyone melts. Until then keep giving feedback I love hearing what you have to say! I don't care if its completely unrelated! So far the feedback has been really good, I really am thankful, let me know what you think. Thanks.
