Vomiting Joy

Tiny snowflake tears make me want to vomit joy.

That’s close to a pleasant thought I had the other day.

Dear readers, I have missed you. I’m not feeling profound or witty or particularly inspired, but Bryan says the show must go on.

I will give you tidbits of information because I know you enjoy bulleted lists as much as I do:
• I have a partner in instability and to that person I say, stability is soooo passé.
• I’m back to reading Stephen King because he’s very comforting to me. The Dark Tower: the Gunslinger.
• I wear a black toboggan with a snowflake puff on the top both indoors and outdoors these days. Keeps my crazy contained. It’s also cold as fuck.
• I met a guy who was PERFECT for me. Until I said Howdy-do. But then he came back around. I didn’t answer one phone call and he blocked me from texting him. So I’m back to keeping myself occupied with men who are not perfect for me in any way.
• 31 seems like a good age to be. 30 was not. 2009 was not a good year.

    * He blocked you? Seriously?
    * I’m glad to hear that 31 is a good age. I am not looking forward to it.
    * 2009 was bad. Its time the world move on and give us a good year for
    once although there are some issues to deal with this year.
    * Toboggins are a must at the moment.

    31 is a great age when you’re 47 lol

    jade and paul: 31 looks good no matter! But I’m only 2 days in.

    jade: cockblocked I was. (That’s Bryan’s assessment.)

    No fucking way! I did NOT miss your birthday! I thought it was on the fifth for chrissake! argh! Well, happy birthday and 31 is better than a suicidal 22 any day.

    Now about that list:

    Instability is the new sane

    Stephen King is all about instability and therefore a King read is just what the doctor ordered. I highly recommend “Four Past Midnight’ and if you watch the movie after, you can lust after an insane writer played by a very hot Johnny Depp.

    Love you medicatedlady, missed you gigantically!

    Rather than just 22, I would say that for the whole of my twenties, there was some concern I would not make it to the next year.

    I don’t advertise my bday, generally speaking, except to say I hate it. I have hated my birthday since I was 10 or 11, too long to remember loving it (if I ever did). Last year, I was seriously worn out, too much dying. Nothing horrible has happened this week and so I’m touting 31 as a good year.

    Nothing horrible except I was wrongly and rudely blocked from a decent match for me. A country song should be written about his blocking ways. I didn’t even stalk him but then I think, I should sign up for this dating site again (even though I had decided to not rejoin) so I can stalk his dating activities.

    glad to see you back!
    31 was a pretty good year, as I recall it from my old age a few years forward 🙂

    i think it’ll be looking up for you!

    Val–I am posting this as a comment but wrote it as a draft before the blocking. So here’s more detail and Bryan’s take.

    I gave it four days. I gave him four days. I tried hard, even if I stumbled along the way. You see, I met a man I quite enjoyed talking to on Sunday. We spent three hours talking and I thought we both had a good time. Oh, me, I guess it was probably something I said. Maybe that I knew nothing about sports and he’s a high school coach? Maybe because I said howdy-do.

    Bryan says I should say only the things can a man would want to hear if I were about to kneel down. I guess howdy-do didn’t work so much. Bryan says I completely killed it.

    Howdy-do implies mom-jeans, scrap booking, knitting, and over the top cheerfulness (which is so ironic considering ML is not cheerful, well, except for her one joyful eye that insists on going rogue). There’s a character on The Simpsons called Ned Flanders. He would say “Howdy Do, Neighbor.”

    […] Until then, enjoy the irony of this post. […]

    Don’t worry, MedicatedLady. The smell is mostly out this morning. Mostly.

    Spoke too soon. The smell was still there today. Probably because I turned on the heat.
