Probably more than you want to hear

I was listening to a radio broadcast this morning and a woman said that she's is called a dirty whore by her husband frequently (in a good, "I have a healthy sex life" kind of way). It reminded me of something kiki once thought of for a T-shirt: "monogamous slut". Aside from the fact that these two phrases make my mind stray to less than moral thoughts, it also confirms that this kind of mentality is something that is definitely a must in a future wifey. Someone who has a healthy outlook on sexuality and would have a very open mind in regards to it.

I survived and my custies did too!

So i guided the upper section of the ocoee this past saturday! it was intense. it was all that difficult, you just have to really be on your game because the consequences of messing up are severe. For example the upper doesn't run as much as the middle so the rocks are less eroded and are still pretty sharp. But anywho, i ran through the upper without a hitch. i got a verbal slap on the back by all my fellow guides on the trip for not dumping my crew at the 2 rapids that flip people. it was a combo trip so we guided the middle section after the upper and several of the senior guides messed up and had to buy beer. Yay for drinking on account of someone else's mess up. i had an extremely weak crew on the upper, which is not that good. the rapids are a lot bigger and you need more momentum going into them to run them correctly. anywho... my bro came up and we ran the middle section in a smaller version of a raft. it was awesome. i dumped him out at a safe spot and he enjoyed it. we also surfed at a good spot and he giggled like a 12 year old girl the whole time! it was awesome! a good weekend fo sho.

Natural Highness

Got a big runner's high tonight. I ran 6 miles and walked another one :-) I'll take it considering i've only been back into running for a week and a half! woot!

My brother can be such an ass hole

So i get in late tonight from the river. I'll write about the weekend when i'm in a little bit better mood. so i get home and the bro is on his computer. the light is on. i try to go to sleep. doesn't work too well. i don't say anything. then i hear said bro say to a friend online that he would call them. now he doesn't realize that talking late at night can keep people from going to sleep when they have to be up at 6:00 in the morning. It's 12:20 now. yay... so anywho... i ask him if he could please go downstairs to talk to this chick so i could get some sleep since oh yea... i kinda do have to be up at 6:00 in the fucking morning. he tries to shush me and tells me i won't hear him and proceeds to interrupt all of my fervent protests against this action of his. i mention that he's being a fuck wad for interrupting me; if you don't know, i can't stand to be interrupted repeatedly, to me that is a verbal slap in the face and i won't stand for it. so anyways i make the point that i need to be up early and he's going to keep me up, he says that i've had my computer on before with my sound up and it kept him up. I mention that he never told me it bothered him and he responds with something like "yea, that's because i'm not a baby and i deal with it". yea... great way to difuse the situation dude... im the one tired from a weekend and have to get up early and you instigate an argument over something as simple as walking downstairs to talk on the fucking phone. it's all a power trip and him wanting to get under my skin. great night to have that happen. i guess tomorrow when he wants to go run i'll just tell him that i need to run faster than he can go to get all this extra stress to bleed off. i need to type it again, what an ass hole!

Picturesque?

So I've been back in alabaster for a week and a half or so and I have been doing a lot of browsing of myspace. One thing I have noticed with a lot of people is that they have like 3 pages of photos of themselves. Now these aren't 3 pages of them doing different things and such, it's 3 pages of personal photo shots. Side profiles, frontal shots, shots from behind with a mirror. Do these people lack friends and activities such that the only thing they can do in their free time is take pictures of themselves? Maybe it's just me, but it seems like one would want to put a lot of pictures up that help a browser get a flavor for who you are. My pictures include myself, wildlife, nature shots, climbing pics, family pics, goofing off pics, etc. Lots of different pictures that help people gain insight into who I am. Now the insight I get when browsing multiple facial shots is that someone is either in need of attention, or they are stuck on themselves. Either way my interpretation of it is negative. Spice those profiles up with more than just your face and butt.

The human condition and enlightenment

It seems that people are always having issues with the opposite gender. It's amusing sometimes and very annoying others. I wonder if these issues existed in ancient times when life was a lot simpler, or if by advancing and stratifying our society did we inadvertantly create differences of gender that seem to cause problems. Who knows.

on a similar note. I have decided to change something about myself. Everyone knows that in high school and for some the early years of college that exceedingly attractive people didn't have a whole lot going on upstairs. They seemed to be concerned with social pressures and specifically girls, from my point of view seemed to act ditzy because that's what guys seemed to want. As a result of these disappointing behaviors, I have been very cynical as to whether I would be able to find a young lady who was gorgeous and intelligent. Because of this cynicism, I have in the past written people, who were attractive, off in my mind who displayed any behavior that rubbed me the wrong way. Well i was thinking the other day that I certainly won't find anyone who has both a beautiful exterior and interior if all I do is write off those who are attractive when they do anything wrong. We'll see how this epiphany plays out.

So wtf happened?!

Really!!! What the fuck happens to everyone when they turn 21? It seems that everyone loses their abillity to have fun if it doesn't involve alcohol. It's amazing how many people say they like to party all the time and go out for drinks and such. What is all that doing for the individuals? I mean I like to have a few beers every now and then but holy shit, to party more than once a week seems excessive. How did people have fun before they could buy alcohol? Oh wait! That's right, they had uninhibited conversations that weren't influenced by any kind of drug. They could go out to the park and walk around. They could go to a movie or listen to music. The problem seems similar to college football. As of late you have probably noticed that testosterone laden males have had conversations ad nauseum about what play was good, who has the best whatever in football, and how next weeks game will go. really... listening to these conversations make me wonder how these dudes manage to have a conversation when its not football season. It seems that every waking thought is centered around the sport. Now for the tie it: this seems to be the same mentality when it comes to drinking alcoholic beverages. Everyone wants to hit up the bars for a drink in the evening. Well how about driving up to vulcan park and looking up at the stars with a friend and contemplate the making of the universe. so i don't mind getting drunk every now and then (once every month or 2) but i do mind that all people my age want to do is drink. What spawned this rant was something said by a guy the other night. I was out and overheard this guy say that he got wasted on his birthday. REALLY?! Wasted on your birthday? Why not go do something with friends. Go to a sporting event. Go out to eat and then go to a spa or something. Go outside and enjoy nature with your closest friends and family... i don't know. Alcohol has become this form of currency amongst adults. If you mess something up or forget about something, you offer to buy someone a bear or take them out for a drink. I wonder if any future civilization will discover our wonton use of this chemical that does nothing beneficial for us as irresponsible and then wonder if we wouldn't have been more technologically advanced without it. i obviously needed to vent about this subject. there... all that negative energy is on the page and out of my head :-D
