Blog-lonely Bologna

So I started this blog right after I broke up with my girlfriend and I posted pretty regularly until we got back together. Then it was intermitent at best. Now we have broken up again and I have this unexplainable desire to blog again. Well maybe it is explainable. Maybe I just feel rejected and I am throwing "myself" out there with this blog hoping that someone will find me and accept me. So are bloggers all just lonely people searching for acceptance? Why aren't we out actually talking to each other and socializing like healthy adults? BLOGS - Just another way that technology seperates us at the same time it tricks us into thinking we are connected.

Bars and tone

One time when I was in high school I ruptured my spleen. It sucked. I had to be confined to bed for 3 weeks.Getting out of bed for the first time in three weeks is an adventure, believe me. Severe muscle atrophy would be one of the major setbacks of medically induced comas, but worth it I think (refer to my first post.) Then for another three weeks I was confined to the top floor of my house, no stairs allowed. Actually I guess that it didn't suck that bad. I got to miss six weeks of school and I got to stay up late every night and sit in our massage chair lazy-boy and watch late night TV. I had the late night schedule memorized for most of the channels. Some of the more notable programs were Martha Stewart Living which came on at 3 in the morning followed by The Nanny.

On a side note, the first thing I thought when I saw Fran Drescher in This is Spinal Tap is "Who did she have to sleep with to get that role?" not that she is a poor actress, just that that was the very first thing I thought.

Anyway after the Nanny I guess the network realized it was scraping the bottom of the barrel in television programming, so in order to preserve some sense of decency they just aired two hours of bars and tone before the morning news came on. Yes, good times indeed. I think I enjoy watching television much more when I am taking prescription pain killers. Of course I doubt there are many things I wouldn't enjoy more after a couple of Loritabs (Prescription drug abuse is illegal and morally wrong... and fun. But I don't do it because it is WRONG... and expensive. But the price doesn't make a difference because I wouldn't do it anyway... or would I? No, no I wouldn't.)

Anyway the point of this whole thing which I am getting to is this: Have you ever noticed that late at night they have a lot of commercials and infomercials for mechanical beds? You don't really ever see those on at normal hours of the day. They always say something like "Having trouble sleeping at night?" I imagine most of the poeple who are still awake late enough to see these comercials say something like "No, I am sleeping like a fraking baby. Dip shit."

So... I guess it is smart for the mechanical bed companies to advertise late, because they are hitting their target audience of poeple who can't sleep at night. I just think it is funny. That is all.

Coma Coma Coma

So have you ever wanted to be in a coma? I really wanted to be in a coma when I was in high school. I think it would be great if we could figure out a way to medically induce comas. It would be like a vacation from life, you know things getting a little stressful just take a week off. I wonder if you were addicted to cigarettes and you got yourself a three month coma if you could wake up without the physical addiction. You would probably still have the psychological habit but I wonder if it would make it easier to quit, I have heard that the first week is the hardest. Medically induced comas would definitely be a positive alternative to suicide. Instead of killing yourself you could just take a 3 year break and when you woke up everything would be totally different and it would be like a totally new life. And if things still sucked you could just go under another 3 years. I think that this could be a profitable business. We could charge by the week. We just need to figure out how to induce comas for a specific amount of time. If any one has any ideas how this could work let me know, cause I could really go for a coma right now.
