Last Seconds

Okay, there's something going on that's all last-minute, so I have to take off! I'll give you something good tomorrow!

Inanity

Sometimes I like to think that my life is magic.

Yeah, that doesn't make sense, but for some reason I felt like typing something that truly had zero sense to it. Call it a twisted state of mind or some weird psychosis involving boredom or a lack of ideas going in my head, but hey - that's what I felt like typing. I blame my brain. I blame the fact that I've yet to play The Wind Waker. I blame the fact that people have too much time on their hands and show it off by speedrunning games I love. I especially blame the fact that my mind works like jelly at times and that it does its own damn thing because it feels like it wants to. Weird, brain. Really weird.

Hunger Ideas

It's a bad idea to be hungry. It's a worse idea to shop for food when you're hungry.

But when your hunger combines with recently-bought food and the sudden spark of culinary ideas...

Good Times Needed and Spent

So I spent today trying to learn how to do the moonwalk and I have to say... I suck at it. Hehehe. I wouldn't say it's a total loss, though - between getting to do that and eat tasty spaghetti, I'd say I had a day well spent.

Okay, I'll admit: I'm feeling a tad lazy today. I'm over with my cousins' and we're just having a good time. That's what these days need - good times. Not just good times for me, but good times for everyone around here and there in the world.

Recharge

When I woke up this morning, I took a look outside. The sky was a dismal gray and it threatened to stay bland and darker than it should be. It had just rained, too, and I was left to wonder if the weather would once again claim my motivations to do anything.

I powered on my laptop and plugged in my iPod and phone to charge. While that happened, I just lied there and stared out the window, empty as an ocean without fish. No ideas on what to write for today's entry... no thoughts about anything in particular... no raison... no ganas. Today pretty much looked like another hum-drum day in a hum-drum life.

As I kept watching time flow outside the glass, the cloud cover began to dissipate and the sun started shining on the ground. Things began to look brighter and I was certain this was meant to be some kind of sign. I got up, walked over the window and watched the gloomy clouds give way to billowy white ones. In a way, it represented my overall mood - my sunny demeanor broke through and now it wants to say something.

My iPod looks bored as it charges. My phone, on the other hand, believes in Harvey Dent the Lich King.

But what, exactly? As I said, I didn't have any ideas on what to type out - and yet I wanted to do something on my blog. To this moment I have no idea... so I figured I'd just type about this whole ordeal and continue with my day.

Because sometimes, even the mightiest of devices need a little time to recharge their batteries.

Sleep Needed

So I almost forgot that I had to post today.

Unfortunately, I don't have anything planned in my head, so I guess we'll have to deal with a short entry. Again. Oy. *smacks head* I'll see if I can make up for this tomorrow. Until then, I'm going to go sleep. G'night, y'all.

Cuisine in the Flames

Originally I was going to write some kind of silly introduction for today. It would have involved food- and fire-based puns that I'm sure people (read: me) would get a kick out of. However, not everyone can digest cheesy banter of that magnitude, so I decided to lower the heat.
The last thing you want to do right now is to burn yourself off something with enough spice to make a smuggler cry blood.

This fire's really heated up the air the last few days. Pun both intended and not.

I'd advise people with poor taste palates (read: those that can't stand the heat) to stay out of the kitchen. I don't feel like scalding anyone's tongues or soft skins, so I might as well warn you now.

Okay, enough puns. (Even if the local fire here in California is a hot topic.) Without much further ado, I present to you: the stuff that made Thursday a hot day.

(Please don't extinguish my life due to these indigestible puns. I'm on fire!)

Incoming Proof

That info's gonna be a bit late, but it's there. Trust me. As proof:

...here: a photo showing food trucks.

...and fire. Once I get the time to write it all down, I'm gonna show you. That's tomorrow!

There WOULD be something here today, but... FOOD TRUCKS ARE CALLING MY NAME. Info tomorrow - cross my heart.

Transformer (Re)Boot

Okay, so it's officially May now. May - the fifth month of the year and... well, I don't know what else. And speaking of not knowing what else, I don't know why, but I feel compelled to type today's entry out while I listen to an eclectic playlist.
