I had thought that I would not update my idiots section; however, I am constantly PMed with bizarre messages that are from random crazy people. I think I will refresh the idiots section to show this. Most of the time I received these messages, I was not even at the computer, which makes it far more pathetic. Here is one from today that is rather strange:
maro_atrash2000: hello
maro_atrash2000: wonderfull
maro_atrash2000: u soooooooooooo beautefu
maro_atrash2000: i like u
maro_atrash2000: :-”
maro_atrash2000: swetty
maro_atrash2000: u wanna me go?
maro_atrash2000: bye
maro_atrash2000: ok
maro_atrash2000: i hope c u again
maro_atrash2000: bye
What is “beatuefu” anyway? How can he possibly like me? And he insults me by calling me “swetty”? Strange…

Yay, my new bedspread and drapes arrived from Calico Corners today.
I was looking through all of my handbags today and I realized that I own some bizarre looking handbags. No one cares, moving on…
At UGA, people were wearing red today to protest the removal of “Kudzu Hill;” it is a well-known drinking area just outside the baseball field. UGA wants to develop the land and thusly they have already banned drinking on the land. I am not sure why this is a reason to protest…
Why should former Baath party officials be working in the new Iraqi government? The US seeks to destroy the Baath party, which they make out to be similar to the Nazi party, yet the thought is there to allow some of them back into the current government. Something is fishy… Click here to read about it.
Weird Al’s parents died! Read about it here.
I was speaking to Dan after he arrived home from a concert at the Tabernacle and I remembered all the bad experiences I had at that place. Last year, when I went with Dan to the Pretenders concert, some woman was sitting on my leg. Can people not confine their rears to their own seat? Every woman that sat down in the seat next to me was spilling over into *my* seat. I take a Libertarian approach to seating. My rear is confined to X space and your rear should be confined to Y space but never XY space unless some sort of agreement has been reached.

Did anyone see this little gem from several days ago? I just came across it on the April 4 post.
“While I agee with you that they should respect your right to privacy, I feel I must remind you that this country you live in is a religious country. Why do you think a lot of the original settlers came here, many for religious freedom. You have every right to not believe in God or to believe in Him. He believes in you and loves you. Have a great day!

Too bad I did not see this until today…Â I fail to see how a piece of land is religious.

My new favorite food fruit is a Grapple. It is a Fuji apple that tastes and smells like a concord grape. It is completely natural and they are not genetically engineered. They actually bathe the apple in concord grape juice to give it the aroma and flavor. Has anyone else tried these?

Today, I spent the day with both of my grandmothers. This was quite fun. First, I picked up my crazy grandmother who informs me that she is happy to be leaving “this fenced in place.” Her retirement home is not fenced in at all. Nonetheless, she continued to talk about random bizarre things. She also kept rambling about having a stroke in her leg. This is a change from referring to her unconfirmed mild stroke as a “cerebral accident.” In addition, the stroke was obviously not in her leg… We then arrived at the hospice and my other grandmother was not happy to see my crazy grandmother. My crazy grandmother kept referring to her room as her new apartment and asked how many residents lived in the “assisted living facility.” My crazy grandmother absolutely does not understand that my other grandmother has cancer and is dying. She continues to ask if my grandmother is going into remission or if she is getting better. It was decided that we would go out to lunch given that my grandmother is sick of sitting around the hospice. After much debate, my grandmother decided that she wanted to eat at Burger King because she did not think she looked presentable enough to go to a regular restaurant. I think it had to do more with not desiring to sit that long with my other grandmother, which I cannot blame her for. My other grandmother complains that this is not a healthy choice. Of course, this did not stop her from eating a whopper and french fries. Then I had to listen to a lecture about how they could never be vegetarians because vegetarians do not eat healthy. Apparently, I am missing something. I had water and they had 500 grams of artery clogging fat. Anyway, we decided to go back to the hospice after that and walk around the sensory gardens. My grandmother insisted that she did not wish to ride in the wheelchair but rather wanted to continue walking using her walker. We walked around and went to see the Koi in the pond. Then my crazy grandmother kept asking if a baby alligator lived in the pond. Yeah, sure, an alligator lives on a hospice campus. The she tried to climb down a hill to procure (read: steal) some Irises in the water. Of course, this necessitated me chasing after her and dragging her back up the hill as she nearly fell in the water. Of course, this would not be the first time I have dragged her nor would it be the first time she has almost fallen in a large body of water. She frightens me… Then we had to walk across some sod, which was quite flat to get back to my grandmother’s room at the hospice. My grandmother was having some trouble pushing the walker so I was helping her. My crazy grandmother thought she should just push the walker out from under her and somehow this would help. Fortunately, I was able to hold her up and she did not fall when my crazy grandmother decided to do this. On one good note, my grandmother has gained weight since moving into the hospice. I believe this is the result of me bringing her milkshakes and chocolate éclairs all the time. This is not something I would normally do but when someone weighs 75 pounds they need all the fat they can possibly get. Certainly, I do not think cholesterol is something she should worry about given her situation and willingness to die. I am quite happy that she has gained so much weight though despite the fact that the cancer is taking so much out of her.

The speech by President Bush last night was relatively boring, lacking in substance, and full of stupid questions. He is not a well-spoken man at all. He also lacks the ability to stay on topic. Most of the reporters looked like they were going to explode from anger or perhaps stupidity. I am not sure that he really addressed any of the questions directly but rather just danced around them and answered each question in a similar manner. Overall, it was a complete and utter waste of my time.

I am really quite irritated. I spent a large portion of yesterday organizing my grandmother’s apartment at the retirement home. Today, I was supposed to continue cleaning up her shrine of anti-organization and clutter. I woke up at 5:30 AM so that I could take care of all my personal needs such as meditation, yoga, eating, etc. I called her to let her know that I was leaving the house at 8 AM and expected to arrive at 9 AM. I arrived at 8:45 AM and went up to her apartment. She barely opens the door and tells me that she is not interested in me organizing the closet today and she slams the door in my face! WHY did she not tell me that she did not want to do this today when I called her earlier?! This sort of behavior is annoying and unacceptable. I just arrived home, having wasted a large portion of my day driving in the car. Sometimes, she makes it very difficult for me to want to help her. Now, she will have to engage in copious amounts of ego stroking in order to get me to come over again because I am not putting up with her little games. Camus was correct in his assessment of life; it is indeed full of the absurd…

Why are women’s shoes so uncomfortable? Why is it so important for women to look better than they feel? More importantly, why do I continue to buy Manolo Blahnik shoes when I know they are clearly uncomfortable? Why do I continue to buy into the societally driven idea that women should wear the most uncomfortable shoes on the planet? Why are Manolo Blahnik shoes appealing to me? It is time for investigation…

I am getting sick and tired of people *witnessing* for Islam. They are JUST as bad as Christians, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Mormons, and every other person trying to cram their religion down someone’s throat. Simply because they desire to worship a goddess, gods, God, or supernatural powers does not mean that they have a right to tell me about it when I clearly state that I have no desire to hear about it. It does not give them a right to solicit at my front door when a sign at the front of the neighborhood clearly says NO soliciting. It also does not give them a right to SPAM my inbox. If you want to worship a god, goddess, God, or supernatural power of your choice that is fine but leave me out of it. If you want to keep that to yourself, that is wonderful. Nevertheless, if you cannot obey the laws, stay away from my house or my email box, and feel it is necessary to witness to me, then perhaps you should move to a religious country like Iran. Muslims know why they do not believe in the Christian religion and likewise Christians know why they do not believe in the Muslim religion. Since they understand that, they should be able to wrap their brains around why I do not believe in ANY of them. The South can be such an irritating place to live.
