ecovlke's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Absinthe Fairy vs. Tooth Fairy Absinthe Fairy vs. Tooth Fairy I guess my diary can seem to be as depressing as a psalm. But I'm a very happy person, and I can even be funny. You see I made a deal with God when I was born. I said, "God I don't care what I look like, just make me funny." Actually I was only joking at the time, but I guess he didn't realize that. We all know how bad our drivers license picture looks, well I really do look like my drivers license picture. Well I guess that's funny because it always makes the cops chuckle or the store clerk snicker when I write a check. I know I write some depressing things in here, but that's just what life is when it's not being fun. I have the ability to find the silver lining in every cloud. For example, I dropped and broke my highly prized portable CD player Christmas morning. For an early birthday present I got one just like it from a pawn shop. Worked great for two days until the two day return policy was off, and now it won't read but two of my 700+ CDs. There is a bright side however. Both CDs are ones that I just got for Christmas and one of the CDs is a double set. Also I do get to listen to my music when I'm in my truck instead of the dreaded and dismal "The Edge, Tulsa's Modern Rock Alternative". It cost $800+ dollars to get my truck's brakes fixed. The high point, I can stop the damn thing now, and I don't have to bum rides anymore. I chipped another wisdom tooth to the nerve the other morning. So I bought a fifth of Southern Comfort last night to wash down my Pain-Aid tablets. I dropped it in the parking lot. Okay there is no bright side to this one. I am now forced to wash down my handfulls of various analgesics with warmed Gekkeikan sake. I could use some Absinthe. Speaking of Absinthe, I just have to say this. I saw "Moulin Rouge". Not the classic John Huston film about artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec starring Jose Ferrer, but the new one. The only part I really liked was when they were drinking Absinthe in the beginning and the little green Absinthe fairy appears and dances. I loved that. I'd buy the damn video just to watch that over and over and... The rest of the movie makes my toothache seem enjoyable. See, I can find the silver lining in every cloud, or turd in this case. Even though no matter how much you polish a turd it's still a turd (Hey kids! Like the foil that comes with chewing gum, write this advice down on a piece of paper and save for future reference, or to put your gum in after use). Okay, the sake is roudhouse kicking the pain in my jaw like a samurai now so I'm going to close. Wow, I feel like Sargent Hara in that scene from "Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence". I think I'll go play the movie soundtrack and polish off this bottle of sake. "Melly Chlistmas, Mr. Lawlence, melly Chlistmas." Yes, sake is a wonderful thing. 7:49 a.m. - 2002-01-05 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
