Monday Melee

Today's Monday Melee marks a few milestones.
#- It is my 200th post. I missed the 100th - didn't even think about it, so I'll celebrate this one instead.
#- It is the day that a good friend recieves a kidney from a live donor. What a gift to get.
#- It is the birthday of someone who forced my life into complete change and continues to rear up occasionally and just shit all over it.

1. The Misanthtropic: Name something you absolutely hate.
The unknown.

2. The Meretricious: Expose something or someone that’s phony, fraudulent or bogus.
Private schools expecting things to be done for nothing. I just got offered pay from a music teacher at a local public school, also a great friend, for doing maintenance on the classroom guitars. I don't want the money. It was a gift of my time, and fun to do. However the attitude in some local private schools is that you are priveledged to be part of their co-curricalar program, not that they are priveledged to have some of your time. And they don't pay you.

3. The Malcontent: Name something you’re unhappy with.
I am surrounded by negativity.

4. The Meritorious: Give someone credit for something and name it if you can.
IcePick, for lifting me off my feet and swinging me around the room out of pure happiness for Friday nights.

5. The Mirror: See something good about yourself and name it.
Most of the time I'm doing good with taking life how it comes.

6. The Make-Believe: Name something you wish for.
A day where the was no shit to deal with. No drama, no bitching. No negativity. Nothing that inspires negativity in me. Nothing that leaves me worried for those I care for.

I'm sending you a little love to combat some of that negativity...

Vic rocks!
Vic is da bomb! (Do people still say that?)

That is just a tiny sampling of the wide variety of positive thoughts I'm shooting in your general direction. Hang in there, friend.

Happy 200th.
You and icepick would make a great couple were you that way inclined.
Negativity - without it I'd evaporate.

Terroni: Thanks, mate. I don't think people do say da bomb any more but why should you let that stop you?

Kate: Babe I don't think that's true about the negativity.
But IcePick and I were definately meant to be.
