Whoomp here it is! (Bacon anyone?)

It's been forever and ever since I have posted..oh dear blog whilst thou forgive me?!?!

So, I have been doing some thinking lately. I'm not sure anyone really cares what I have to say, but I've decided I'm going to say what's on my mind anyway. The past few days have been filled with lots o' rain and thunder. As a matter of fact, I just heard a loud BOOM!! a hundred yards from where I stand. Okay, I'm sitting as I type, but you get the point! Have any of you ever tried to type on a laptop whilst standing?! Yes silly, I know I used the word whilst, and not while...I find it to be more proper and civilized.

Things I dislike currently:

Bugs (well most, I still have love for ladybugs and rollie pollies)

Thugs

Mean people

War

The current presidental administration

People who lick their fingers while (see there I used it!) eating

Being rick-rolled (come on youtube peeps, enough is enough)

When I see someone sad

When I see someone homeless

When I take a shower, step out side whistling zippity do da, and a bird shits on my head!

Things currently like:

Hugs

Mugs (of the coffee variety)

Friends

Family

Having my nieces spend a weekend with me!

Singing in the rain

Driving in my car aimlessly with the music decibel's cranked!

That fall is drawing ever so near :)

A good book

Music (Imagine that!)

People who read and comment on my blog...hey you! yes, YOU! Please comment below..it will make my day! :)

Feel free to share your likes and dislikes. If you do, I promise I will write clever, witty, blogs daily!

The High Life and Bucket Bouts Part 5

As she extends her hand to help him up, the telephone rings. The sound of the ring tone makes Amber tremble with fear, and she momentarily forgets why her hand is extended. Mitch picks himself up off the floor and reaches for the phone. "Hello?" he says into the receiver. The only thing he can hear on the other end of the line is heavy breathing. "Who is this?!" he screams into the phone "and what the hell do you"... but before he can finish the sentence, he hears a click and the phone line is dead. "What was that all about?" Amber asks with a puzzled look on her face. "I'm not sure." For some reason, every time I answer the phone, I hear heavy breathing and the person on the other end hangs up." "That sounds strange," she says with a worried look on her face. "Don't worry about it Amb, I'm sure it's nothing." "Let's get out of here." "Okay, but grab your jacket, it's a bit chilly outside," she replies. As Mitch goes to grab his jacket out of the closet, he hears drips begin to hit the floor in the kitchen. To be continued....

The High Life and Bucket Bouts Part 4

As Mitch struggles to get to his feet, his arms suddenly feel week and his head hits the floor. "Just lie still," Amber says as Mitch looks her straight in the eyes. It's moments like these, that he thinks to himself how crazy he is about this woman. "Do you have ice in the fridge?" she says as he watches her walk into the kitchen. "Yes, I do." But before he can finish saying the words, she is already putting ice into a paper towel. "Here, put this on your head," she says handing him the self made ice pack. "I guess all that time spent watching MacGyver episodes finally paid off eh?" he says with a chuckle, as he places the ice pack on the back of his head. "So...what exactly happened to you last night?" she asks. "I, I really don't remember." he replies. As soon as the words leave his mouth, he has another flash in his mind. If only he knew what took place last night, and why he keeps have these flashes. To be continued......

The High Life and Bucket Bouts Part 3

As yet another image flashes into his head, Mitch is left in a state of confusion and panic. He begins to feel his heart race fast, and his palms get sweaty. His stomach is in knots, the same kind of feeling he had when as a kid, he and a friend were busted for shoplifting. Suddenly, the room goes black, and his body goes limp. When he comes to, he sees a figure standing over him. As his eyes begin to focus, he makes out the figure. It's his good friend Amber. Mitch has know Amber since they were both in the 2nd grade. They are the kind of friends that can be in a group, yet they are the only two who understand their own private joke. They are so close, she was the one who was there for Mitch, to comfort him when his mom died in a car accident, when he was 12. Over the past few years, Mitch has fallen deeply in love with Amber, but has yet to tell her.

As his eyes are now focused his throat is as dry as a desert, as he struggles to speak. "Am.. "Amber?" he finally musters enough energy to speak out loud. "Yes, Mitch, it's me" she says back to him. As he stares into her brown eyes, she smiles at him. "Are you ok?" she asks. "I..I..don't know" he says back to her. As he rests his head back on the hard living room floor, he once again has a flash in his head, and feels more confused than ever. To be continued..

The High Life and Bucket Bouts Part 2

As the afternoon settles in, Mitch (as we will now call him) turns on the television, and begins flipping through the channels. After a few minutes of boredom, he turns the television off and picks up the latest issue of Rolling Stone. As he begins to read, his thoughts focus on the flashes from the previous night. The wooden clock on the wall ticks silently in the background. As images flash into his head, he is snapped out of his thoughts by the ringing of his telephone. When he answers the phone and says hello, he hears heavy breathing on the other end. "Hello?" Mitch says out loud into the phone. But there is no answer, only the continuation of breathing, followed by a click. With his heart racing, panic sets in, and suddenly he feels ill. "Exactly what happened last night?" he wonders as he sets the phone down on the coffee table. Instantly, another image flashes into his head. To be continued........

The High Life and Bucket Bouts Part 1

The clock reads 11:33 on a late Sunday morning. As the alarm generates it's usual morning buzz, he wipes the blurry haze from his eye and takes a look outside the window. Clouds fill the sky, and the sun is rendered helpless. As each foot staggers to make a path across the bedroom floor, he stops to remember what has caused the dreadful throbbing in his head. As random events from the night prior fill his head, he instantly remembers the 9 bottles of High Life that he downed in a 2 hour period. He then makes his way to the bathroom and looks in the mirror at his disheveled appearance, and proceeds to wash his face. The cold water hits his skin like a winter chill, and instantly his brain is alert. At the same moment, his stomach gives off a horrid grumble and reminds him that he is in need of nourishment, and stat. As he makes his way to the kitchen, he thumbs through the selection at hand. Oatmeal, Corn Flakes, Little Debbie Cakes, and pancakes. After a moment of debate, he decides to trust the years of Wilford Brimley's suggestion and eat a bowl of oatmeal. At this moment in time, all seems right with the world (with the exception of the headache). Little does he know, strange events are about to unfold later in the day..... to be continued

Earth Day 2009

Happy Earth day my fellow earthlings!

Today we celebrate the planet we inhabit called Earth. It's a time for us to appreciate the beauty that our planet has to offer, whilst raising awareness in preserving our planet. Whether it is using a cloth shopping bag at the grocery instead of plastic, walking or riding a bike instead of driving, or recycling aluminum, plastic or newspaper, there are many things we can chip in to do our part. For more information on Earth Day and how you can learn more to do your part please visit: http://www.earthday.net/
I believe we should make Earth Day not a one day a year event, but a daily way of life.
Happy Earth Day!

In other news, my friend Sam Cline and have decided to start our own record label. The name of the label is CSC Records....more info coming very soon!

Transmission complete.....
