Today is Friday the twenty-sixth day of August in 2010 CE, the day of the grace and peace of our Lord the Flying Spaghetti Monster, the love of Pasta, and the fellowship of the Authentic Sauce; the day of the salvation, redemption, providence, and blessing of the almighty Flying Spaghetti Monster Most High. If not today then what other day is there?
I don't wish to offend anyone, but I need to unwind, to vent, and to decompress from the emotional stress that I am experiencing as a result of my relationship with my girlfriend.
I've been back from my week in the desert for about 1 week. Despite hiking some 20 miles per day with a 75 pound back pack through mountainous terrain (there was so much to see and explore and the coca leaves I was sucking on must have helped give me the energy to do it), I've gained weight. I caught and ate a lot of fish out there.
Complaints.
A, my gf, says I'm a "project," a kind of emotionally damaged person that she thinks she can train and fix
This morning my gf scolded me for using a fork instead of using a spoon to eat oatmeal. I told her that unless I'm eating something runny like soup, I prefer to use a fork. And especially a fork when it's oatmeal that's started to cool. Using a spoon in cooling oatmeal makes a nasty sticky-sucking sound. She said use the fork and I'll stab you with it. The she threatened to listen to turn on NPR. NPR, National Public Radio, is a radio network which I hate on a visceral level. Usually a few minutes of it makes my skin crawl.
TV uses hosts who are considred "TV friendly" in their grooming, appearance, and mannerisms. They try not to hire hosts who don't look good on the screen. Analogous to this, most commercial radio networks do the same with their radio DJs and hosts. They don't want their listeners to get annoyed and change the channel. But not NPR. It hires news anchors and hosts with annoying idiosyncracies. Usually, something about the way they speak is annoying. It's subtle -- not something that you would notice talking to somebody face to face, but only when it's recorded and amplified out of proportion with a microphone. And when you sit in your kitchen, drinking coffee and reading, with it going on for a while do you begin to notice it. And the longer it's on, the more grating to the nerves it becomes. Sometimes it seems like the NPR recording engineer, or whatever the job is, turns up the high frequency pickup so you hear nothing but clicking of lips and tongue. The hosts often sound like have a dry sticky mouth and that they badly need drink of water. It's kind of like the nasty squicking sound of using a spoon to eat cold oatmeal. Or it's the old farts in a program called "Car Talk" who sit there laughing at their fuddy duddy old man jokes (they tell the SAME FSCKING JOKES EVERY FSCKING WEEK!@!@@! A listens to this program every week! FSCK I AM MAD JUST THINKING ABOUT IT! ) and take only 1 or 2 calls about actual car problems in the entire hour it's on, or the annoying Garrison Keylor, ......
Then, she said I hate women. The reasons she gave it that I look at porn (I look at porn about once a month, but it's really none of her business. ) and because I won't eat her "cream pie," and because I hate the fanatical man-haters who made up the Temperance Movement in the US about 100 years ago.
Right after coming back to portland, I found a pair of my blue jeans in the trash. She was at the house and had access to my things while I was gone. During the past week, I've noticed some other of my clothes have gone missing as well. Shirts, socks, underwear, pants. I think my gf is throwing them away. She has recently complained about the way I dress, and I can't find some of the clothes she complained about.
I just read in the paper today that A__'s cousin Buba burned down several neighborhood houses. Just saw this in the news. What kind of family is hers
