Six

I didn’t get back to writing yesterday.

The show was good. I guess the “guest” who was supposed to be on had something else to do, so it turned into basically a five-comic stand-up show with a political bent.

Entertaining, yes. What I was expecting? No.

I started on this quickly this morning before I went to get my teeth cleaned. Kind of incredible, really, however. Doing something that mundane wasn’t a terrible task. I didn’t spend a ton of time preparing, I just went. And came home. And everything was okay.

This is how normal people live. I’ve never had that sort of experience in such a long time it feels remarkably different.

So…onto prompts…


What was the last thing you put in your mouth? (T2K)
Straw to my water bottle.

Do you sleep naked? (T2K)
Very rarely these days.

Worst physical pain of your life? (T2K)
I had a tooth that was bothering me on a business trip. I kind of just dealt with it; I’ll go visit my dentist when I get home. Pressurizing cabin is incredibly painful. When I got to Atlanta, I drank three Marinis in the airport hoping to dull the pain on the next leg. Ummm…yeah….The aireline pilot on ferry in the seat next to me looked very concerned. He did reassure me that it’d lessen as we got fully-pressurized.

Worst emotional pain of your life? (T2K)
I really don’t know at this point. The things that would normally be considered lows sucked, sure, but given all the other things that have happened to me during my adult life, it’s tough to get really bent out-of-shape about anything. Losing my dad at a young-ish age was definitely tough, but once again, I found myself in a position of trying to keep the people around me sorta stable.

Favorite place you have ever been? (T2K)
I’m not sure.

How late did you stay up last night? (T2K)
Just a bit after midnight.

If you could move somewhere else, where would it be? (T2K)
I really have no clue at this point.

Which of your Facebook friends lives the closest? (T2K)
Well, the person who invited me to Facebook shares a bed with me. (I fell into that weird place between the always-disconnected, and everybody “online.”

When was the last time you cried? (T2K)
Probably getting my wife’s anniversary card.

Who took your profile picture? (T2K)
Me.

What’s your favorite season? (T2K)
Fall. We’re now moving into cold, now that it’s November.

If you could have any career what would it be? (T2K)
Retired.

What was the last book you read? (T2K)
If I was more of a SJW, I’d be offended by this question. I don’t really see well enough to read anymore.
So learn Braille!
Uh, my fingers (and other pars of my body) are numb.

If you could talk to ANYONE right now, who would it be? (T2K)
I really don’t feel like talking to anyone right now, honestly.

Are you a good influence? (T2K)
Who knows?

Does pineapple belong on a pizza? (T2K)
Generally I’d say, “no.” But I’m in a oh-that-soounds-intersting mode lately. Yes, I’ve had it before, and wasn’t terribly impressed, but my tastes have changed a lot. I still don’t like eggs. Or Avocadoes.

You have the remote, what show will you be watching? (T2K)
No idea. I don’t watch much TV.

Three people who you think will play? (T2K)
I think this was specific to OD; I don’t know.

Last concert you went to? (T2K)
Music? I don’t know; maybe Tegan & Sara? I’ve been to some debates and comedy shows.

Favorite type of food? (T2K)
French
