Kinda down on myself because I didn’t make it through until noon. With the cold and just the fact that my toes are broken and these things hurt like hell I didn’t make it until noon without taking a pain killer. It was to the point where I couldn’t think and wouldn’t be in any shape to drive had I not taken one, yet once I took one I can’t drive anyway. My mom hadn’t left yet for whatever adventure she’s going on today so I ended up going back to bed.
Tomorrow I have to bring wood in. She just announced that she’s going to my god mother’s house over night thursday night for some event going on down that way. She wasted all her free time this week playing video games so they don’t have more than a day’s worth of wood down there. I was going to do it today when she took my dad my dad to the dentist but I ended up falling asleep way early. I swear I’m turning into Stef with these early naps. Awake 3 hours then out like a light for 2, then up and atom for the rest of the day (she does this, but at night so she’s up all night).
My mom gets frazzled a lot when it comes to fast food. Today’s latest escapade saw her pick me up Burger King but decide that since I was going to nap I didn’t want a soda. Since Burger King (to me anyway), is just as good reheated, and sodas always need to be cold anyway — I don’t know what she was thinking. Had I been asleep when she got home she could have just put everything in the fridge. But it’s just part of a weird pattern when she gets fast food.
A couple of weeks back she decided to buy us Subway. She asked me what I wanted. I said half of one sandwich and half of another. She brought back two entirely different things than what I had asked for because she figured I didn’t want two hot sandwiches. Before that it was taco bell. I wanted a gordita and an order of 7 layer nachoes. I asked her to get a chicken gordita. She brought back chicken everything. 2 orders of chicken nachoes, chicken gorditas, even chicken soft tacos (It took 2 days to finish all that food with everyone eating!). She confuses me. It’s all good and at least she’s through the phase where she was ordering honey mustard on everything. Just don’t ask.
I think I’m going to try to wake up and play some MAME games before I figure out the next couple of strips today. Remember, if you like the strips, tell people about them and link us please. I can afford the bandwidth now that I’m not being charged $5-$10 extra a month because someone was linking a picture of Ogre from Revenge of the Nerds, for example, in the messages on Fark.com and hosing me with the bandwidth fees. So let us be a little secret no more.
My eternal thanks,
