I really like the new tori amos cd. I haven't heard the whole thing yet but it sounds a lot like her earlier stuff. I haven't liked her newer stuff too much but i like this.
I just bandged my hand into the edge of my table and now it's got a big scrape on it. that's stupid of me to do and it pisses me off.
I haven't been doing much of anything. Yesterday i couldn't find the power cord adapter for my discman, and like usual when i can't find something i get obsessed with finding it. In this case the feeling was exacerbated by the fact that i didn't know for sure if i had even brought it here. But i'm pretty sure that even if i didn't know if i was going to use it, i would have brought the power cord anyway if i brought the cd player. So i started looking and my looking turned into cleaning and organizing as it inevitably does. So i did that for most of the night. It was fun, and at least some dusting needed to be done anyway. But what i really need to do is vacuum. Oh and i did find a cord that i think is the right one, but i won't know for sure till i try it.
The reason i started looking is that steve wanted to take the discman to hook up to his brothers radio which is designed to have a cd player hooked up to it. Steve's brother and he have been putting up lights at this mall, that's a "dead" mall. There are not too many stores left in there, and so that's why they want the extra lighting. So they has put up a bunch of lights already and now they have to go back and put all the lights that they just put up onto a new circuit. This is because they barely had the capacity to run the lights on the other circuit to begin with and the mall people brought in a whole bunch of those carts which sit in the middle of the mall and are run by one person and sell things like calanders or jewelry or whatever the cart is. And so all those are now using energy too. So the mall blew a fuse and now they have to go back and redo all those lights. Steve and his brother wanted to run a seperate line anyway in the first place though.
damn my scrape is bleeding.
Today I listened to Steve's other brother and steve talk about some work that one of steve's aunts wants done at her house. It's a big project of making this one empty room into a bathroom and making this other room into the new kitchen. They were trying to figure out how much it's gonna cost and all that. It was interesting.
Oh last night on tv i watched crossroads.. that movie with britanny spears. It was okay. It wasn't as horrible as i thought it would be. It was sort of like a bland made for tv movie that's trying to be a blockbuster. Her song was horrible at the end though. total crap.
I'm also reading this book that i asked for for xmas. it's called um.. A god called father: One womans recovery from incest and Multiple Personality Disorder. I read any book i can about DID (formally MPD) because i find it interesting. This book is also about it, but it's incredibly godly. Now i didn't assume by the name ( A god called father) that the book would be very religious, but maybe i would have if i thought about it more. I don't really care anyway if it's about somene who is christian or even if they talk about it in the book some. But this book is drenched with the christian religion. Its pretty much a chronological record of her journal entries with some added comments, and almost every entry there's a half page prayer. I have to skip like all the prayers because they are like gagarific and also they are the same thing over and over and it's boring. Other than that the book is interesting, though at the start the mulptiple personality part seemed sort of fake to me. I mean there are entires that are supposed to be from child personalities.. and they just don't sound like it. Most of the time, also, in other books about DID, a big part of the whole experience is the person talking about how wierd and frightening it is when they "black out" when other personalities have surfaced. Like before they know that they have DID or anything, they are just scared and confused when they wake up somewhere else and it's days later or whatever.. and she never really talks about that happening in her life. She says once or twice that she can't remember parts of her life it but she never mentions being worried about loosing time. Maybe it'll get addressed later.. i've only read about half of it.
One more thing before i go:
hummus is to chickpeas as guacomole is to avacados.
it's incredibly true. to make guacamole as far as i know basically you smush up the avacado with some oil and lemon juice. How do you get hummus?.. smush up chickpeas and add some oil and lemon juice.
the end. for now.
