by myself with some beer and a small bottle of whiskey ... hmm ... alcohol my best friend? maybe ... yes ... none the less i feel i have good enough reason to drink away ... i probably do not have good enough reason, but in my mind there is. In my mind I am like Walker (pause) Texas Ranger, with more than enough reason (at least in my head) to think i'm cool, or David Hasselhoff, with more than enough reason (at least in me head) to think I can star in a night series following baywatch where i also think im cool. who else would be a perfect example? George of The Beatles the Keith Richards of The Beatles, but without the cool...
and then there is Ringo (enough said) hence - Ringo and the Ringo All Stars
Point is, we create these ideas in our head that really bring us to believe we are something, bad thing is it tends to be negative, unless your a star that actually has the means to promote this idea you have in your head to see if anyone else will buy into it. Like this local artist, dont know his name, guy with the curly hair, circular glasses, and bandana around his head...who i got to say has the best marketing tactics for self promotion ever, for example...bumper stickers that say something along the lines of (cant quite remember now)
"Just say *and then there is a picture of him*"
ok??? Another example of his marketing forte ... i went up to his "studio" and every painting has him in it ... well OF COURSE !! how else would you really remember who created this Picasso unless you get to look at him everytime you look at the Picasso...GREAT THINKING curly sue !!!!
my life can be summed up right now with in the example of a phone call i got the other day at work.
this gentleman calls and wants to buy tickets for a concert, basically this can take me 15-20 minutes , but not with him (this is the 2nd time i get him on the phone). the first time i lasted 46 minutes on the phone with him only asking questions, specifically questions on student discounts (he is 83).
this time it was to get tickets, he kept going off on these tangents about WWII, and his wife who passed away 3 years ago, and how he got his house from her mom, and his attorney pays all his bills ... basically a vomit of information came out of this guys mouth. and he ended the convo by letting me know how nice and patient i had been , and he was going to ask for me when he called again *NOOOOO* but good thing is he hung up thinking my name was Poinciana, because he also has hearing problems, did i mention he has Alzheimers Disease? Sweet man , really...just too time consuming with irrelevant information - which brings me to my point. this situation with him sums up my life. Good time consumed in irrelevant information and situations ... therefore birthing a vomit of consequences in my life.
yup ... and to wash down this vomit, i will move on to my beer and whiskey - yes, whiskey!
