So I'm having a pretty chill Monday, after a kick ass weekend. Today I'm in recovery mode, I don't have a very high tolerance for weed today or any day for that matter. I guess you could say I'm pretty weak. I so wanted to look cool this weekend but didn't...or couldn't. I acted like I was some supper tough ass party-er that could completely handle my weed, which I obviously couldn't. Weed and me, we don't have a good relationship anymore. I actually tripped last night off of a pot brownie, like I was on Acid...I couldn't see straight, I was dizzy, stuff was moving around and I was hearing shit. I was seeing colors when I closed my eyes, it was the worst trip, I've ever had to be trapped in, and not like sticking my finger down my throat would of helped either. When I was finally able to get my head together, which was four hours after eating half a pot brownie. I frained food poisoning, when I finally made it home, rather then having to admit to the embarrassing truth, that I got to high and sick from a pot brownie...it reminded me, of the same kind of sick, that you get from drinking to much.
So I was reading an article somewhere, that one of the number one company in America, sold I-phones...can you believe it? What's wrong with America? Why do people care more about what car or phone they're driving or using, then they do about each other? I keep noticing this where ever I go, or with whoever I might be hanging out with. So how much time, do you think Americans waist living alone? I see all types of people whom care more about, were they live and what they have, then they do to actually paying attention to people in real time, the people whom are right here, right now. Which is sad because in this world important people do get killed and important people do die. I'm not talking about face-booking it up either to get your one on one fix either. To a certain degree, that might be considered having real relationships with people. But the cold hard reality of what's really going on is that people seem to be very cut off from other people.
I know we're living in a very weird period of time these days. Where twittering has become a phenomenon, that millions of people world wide love doing. It's weird, but a type of stalker mentality is ingrained in the way we as a society think. Now, I have blond hair, when I had brown hair...I could safely walk down my street or any street harassment free, but now that I have blond hair...I have had work cards thrown at me, with some douche bags number, who desperately wanted me to call him. Whatever happened to saying hi, acting calm and being cool? Does sneaking up on someone seem cool to you? I wouldn't of done it, but then I'm not a desperate guy either. Then while I was standing on my corner, two houses down from my house, when I was coming back from work. A guy stops on the other corner, gets out of his car and says; "can I at-least get a smile?" I smiled, and thought to myself; why do some guys need to treat women like they're idiots? I should write a book called; "learning how to act around women."
Now if that guy was maybe 20 years old, I understand the lame comment, but when you look like your 40 something...it really didn't play-off the way the guy wanted it to. I may be many things, crazy, temperamental, extreme, jealous and many, many more things, I may even be a narcissist. But the one thing that I'm not is desperate! I don't need to surround myself with meaningless, hit it and quite it sexual sessions, with different booty calls, daily and nightly, with random guys from around the city. So this current booty-call dude that's sitting in my bedroom, can be my next "whatever" moment in my bedroom. Yea, I understand the way men think...but I'm a women, who's a little bit beyond the hit it and quite it mentality. But that mentality is running a lot of peoples thoughts, around California and the world. Maybe that; gotta have someone, or that gotta have anyone, to make me feel complete...is what's fueling the whole cell phone craze. It's like even your friends need to know, where you are, and what you're doing like 24/7. I have actually learned to hate the cell phone. If it's to easy to reach anyone, I believe a lot of people, just start taking the other people in their lives for granted. I could be wrong but I'm probably not.
So getting back to the point, we are a people whom live on a virtual reality existence...and we are taking what's going on around us in real time for granted. We have so many things to distract us in America, we're missing so much, while being trapped in a vehicle; either going to work or coming back from it...that life is passing many of us by. Well I for one, don't want to miss my life, and the people in it, because I was to busy watching T.V, while trapped on my computer or...on some other gadget, while stuck in my house. I feel like life is a line out of a Judas Priest song; "if you think I'll let it go you're mad!" Sorry I haven't been writing, but I've been living my life. That's another reason, I don't like smoking pot very often, I want to be fully awake when I'm experiencing my life...I don't want to be asleep at the wheel. I do believe that the European mentality is really advanced, compared to the way many Americans are living their lives today. People are trapped in their houses, while being glued to their couches, while watching some mindless T.V show. Only to wake up to go to work, to become trapped in their offices...so they make their boring life consuming trips, back to their homes in there air conditioned rolling coffins. Only to repeat that mundane act, for another million trips to and from work until they retire. So can someone tell me what meaning in America is? Please don't tell me, that meaning is in what you own or how much money you have.
