Reply All, 28 Days Later, Glacier, Krispies & Obesity...
J. sent out a mass invite to go on a hike today. Honestly, my first impulse was to "pull a J" and hit "Reply to All" and invite everyone over to my house for a BBQ instead (an idea I got from Rick referring to the last time I sent a mass email out to everyone inviting them to a BBQ at my house and he did something similar). Narcissism is an all encompassing disorder.
Anyway, he didn't respond to my email about whether or not he's still going to Glacier in August (something him and I have been planning for years which he now decides to go with his girlfriend, the no-brow instead). I don't know whether he's aware that there's been major fires riping through the park [apparently their worst fire season on record] and are predicted to get MUCH WORSE at the end of August [which is typically their worst time of year, as far as the fire season is concerned]. Maybe it's karma coming to bite him on the ass.
With that said, my boss told me today that I have accumulated over SIX FUCKING WEEKS of vacation time. I'm thinking a major trip is in order. Maybe September? With all this heat lately, I'm thinking Alaska baby!!! If there's a ferry, maybe I'll drive up and take the ferry back. If there even IS a ferry. By the way:
Anyway, I couldn't go anyway because I actually had some sleep to catch up on today, which sucks, because it's probably the WORST time in the world to try and get some reprieve from the heat. I woke up covered in sweat. Nice.
I spent the night at Julie's last night [ie: she has air conditioning] and we wound up staying up pretty late. We did manage to work out together. She's doing the three month 'fit for life' program. I don't know if you know what that is, but I'm very proud of her. She's even begun to actually 'run' for the first time in her life. First she's become a cat person, now this. What have I DONE!!! Lol.
Actually, I wanted to get some sleep in before I went out tonight to catch Guys new band at the Tonic. Not that I really WANT to go, but I believe I owe him at least THAT. I don't even really LIKE his band. See how much of a nice, stand up guy I am? All those rumors of me being a total bastard just aren't true.
Part of the reason I went to Julie's last night is that we saw 28 Days Later. NOT what I expected at all. Not to say it wasn't good, just not what I expected. It looked like it was filmed in the 1970's or something, which unbeknowst to me at the time [which I found out afterward] was the look and feel the director was going for. I expected more CGI, and more of a cheesy Blockbustery type of movie. The only thing that seemed Hollywood to me was the forced, everything's nice, everything's happy ending which I'm sure was they were FORCED to film, because the company producing is convinced by the erroneous belief that everybody wants a happy ending. We stuck around for the REAL ending which was added at the end of the credits, where there is much more death, loss and despair. It was much more realistic and had more of an impact, I thought anyway. I didn't need to see the other ending. It was stupid. The director must have felt so stupid and betrayed by the forced ending that he must have felt he HAD to attach his original ending at the end of the credits. I know I would have. The movie was pretty deep and interesting, or at least thought-provoking to say the least.
Anyway, I'm heading off to Subway now to get myself a Cold Cut Trio with sweet onion sauce. Have you ever tried their sweet onion sauce? It is SOOOO fucking good man!!! I think I'm addicted. And it's FAT FREE!!! Oh how American of them.

A recent study showed that two out of three Americans are overweight? That's sick, just sick! And they're ALL ON THE ON-LINE DATING SITES!!! At least the one's I'VE met, anyway. I SWEAR some of these chicks totally false advertize man. 125, I don't think so! Try 145 bitch!!!

Speaking of addicted, Krusty Kreme just opened yesterday here in Portland. People waiting fucking FIVE HOURS in line for fucking doughnuts!!! Don't they know about my Random Factoid & Commentary??? In the SUN none-the-less!!! Fucking crazy man! I don't doubt that enevitably somebody's going to SUE Chrispy Cream, arguing that the doughnuts were too good, that they couldn't resist, and therefore they got fat. What ever happened to personal responsibility. One grandma burns her lip in a bout of dementia and now we all have to suffer. And don't these people know these doughnuts will STILL be on sale NEXT WEEK? People man, they're fucking sheep. I tell you.
Anyway, I'm starvin' Marvin right now, so I gotta go. For reals now.
