The World According to RD: May 2006

Rx for Depression...

So, i kind of had tons of epiphanies last night, but one of them was that we dispense quite a bit of anti-depressants. Now, the clientele really consists of 20 - 35 years old. So, i'm sure your now wondering, "oh, great and wonderful RD, what is thou epiphany!?" Well, i'm glad you asked,...

Its basically the logical realization that there are not too many happy people in the area west of bucktown, and this may be do to the fact that they do not live in bucktown : (

SO, moral of story...move to bucktown.

RD

p.s. And if your wondering what the image of the kitten has to do with this post, well, the answer is...absolutely nothing : )

Its getting hot in here!

I thought maybe this would help cool things down.

there was this little polar bear and he went into his igloo and said “mum, am i a grizzly bear or brown bear?” “no your not” she replied “ur 100% polar bear” a little later he comes back in and says” mum am i mountain bear or a black bear” “i’ve told u once, no ur a polar bear, now go and play outside”. 5 minuets later he comes back and says ” mum r u sure that i’m not a koalar bear” “NO!! ur a polar bear, why do u keep askin?” he says “cos i’m fucking freezing” !!

Week End....

Had a great weekend :) Hung out with silent fart and dandruffy. Was definitely the college life. Partied on friday, woke up with hang over, went to movie (x-men 3 (four stars!)) THEN, went took nap, watch tv, and go out again. Woke up at four am to do bike the drive, but proceeded to vomit (why, i'm not sure ;) and then vomited through out the morning (including during bike the drive) and had to call it quits early.

During bike the drive, i couldn't take any water. Any water that touched my inner lining of my GI system lead to the direct expulsion of the liquid via...my mouth :(

Other than the vomiting, last week was a great week. Sadly, must go back to work...tomorrow :(

my first photo

this is a cool program that silent fart introduced me too! awesome program and my first photoshop : ) this is the night after finals : ) You'll probably get bored, but YOU HAVE TO SEE THE ENDING! : )

Reality...TV....

So, i get back to my place this morning, and i see some people construction people in front of my place. As i get closer...i realize not only is my patio missing! but they put the bike that was on the patio on the patio below ours (our neighbors!).

I was stunned. The construction people said it would be done today, and we'll have the patio back by then, but nonetheless.... i thought it would be cool to put a little video clip of them working on it : ) I had to keep my distance, cuz a guy in his boxers video taping construction workers...well, lets just say they probably wouldn't like that : )

Bummed....

So, i'm bummed today. Usually i'm sooo excited to leave work, plus my manager came in, and its always good to see him.

So, i couldn 't figure out why i was exactly bummed until i realized...my bummness occurred after work, after seeing a sign on my car that said it will be towed for leaving it in the walgreens parking lot for more than 30 minutes AND that my license plate has been recorded! Yeah, i think that kind of bummed me out to realize that the place i work at is going to tow my car tomorrow night for working there.

funny joke

i thought this was funny. If your religous...stop reading ; )

The reason Why

A very religious man lived next door to an atheist.

While the religious one prayed day in, day out, and was constantly on his knees in communion with his Lord, the atheist never even looked twice at a church. The atheist's life was good: he had a well-paying job, a beautiful wife, his children were healthy and good-natured. The pious man's job was strenuous, his wages were low and his wife and children ignored him every day.

So one day, deep in prayer as usual, he raised his eyes towards heaven and asked, "Oh God, I honour You every day. I ask Your advice for every problem and confess to You my every sin. Yet my neighbour, who does not even believe in You and certainly never prays, seems blessed with every happiness, while I go poor and suffer many an indignity. Why is this?"

Came a great voice from above: "Because he does not bother Me all the time!"

Living in a car

As my late night marathon continues to adjust for my week on; i discovered this blog.

http://wanderingscribe.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_wanderingscribe_archive.html

I looked through it and was kind of skeptical at first, but then i checked out the links and my skeptism definitely vanished. I think it does demonstrate a situation for some people. I would definitely check out the ny times audio interview.

Whats interesting, a friend of mine in college was crashing at my place, but at night, he would sleep in his SUV. He would use our place as his address as well as keep some of his stuff there, but at the time, i didn't think anything of it.

GO west....

I'm seriously thinking of going to california. Why? I'm not sure. To get away? Don't know. I think i'm pretty much trying for the days of zero responsibility. I miss the biggest thing on a saturday was where to go, and not what errands to run. Now, if i could ever figure out what an errand is...i'll be all set : )

SO, it was commented that i use to many smiley's! I'm now fully self-conscious of using smiley's now, and now it takes me twice as long to write a blog/ e-mail...cuz now i have to decide whether the smiley is appropriate or not! : ) <----- this one is not appropriate, but i felt that its location made this blog look nicer. : ) <----- this one is appropriate for reasons i can not divulge as of now.

SO...to go west or not. I'll fill the california application on my next week off. I know what might happen though. I'll end up going out there, but then! I'll realize i left a good thing. Thats what advice my friend gave. I asked him if he would ever leave chicago, and he said no, why fix something that isn't broken. SO, why am i trying to fix something...that isn't broken?

Happy graduation!

Congratulations silent fart! We all didn't know you could do this. I had to blur the picture up to protect the guilty : )

Anyways, if there are any students formerly known as 3L reading this...congratulations! : )
