hello my dear darling,
yes, i, of course, am a day late in response. but, i do have one. first of all, advertising is at such a non-creative low that i'm sure diamond jewelers have no one else to appeal to except "happily married" upper income couples, who have no other way to express feeling towards one another, besides putting a price tag on it. secondly, if i woke up my boyfriend/husband every day with a blow job, you know the last thing i'd get would be diamond earrings. more than likely i'd be rewarded with an extra large bottle of deep throat gel, and a pat on the head. i'm not cynical, just truthful.
If her and I ever date, I'll give her a chance to prove herself correct.
I got Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Some guys at work are organizing a clan for multiplayer. If you would be possibly interested.
I've been playing online for the past 3.5 hours and its time to go to bed.
Don't forget that they are celebrating Christmas at the Mag tonight.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

I want to post some of the responses I received about yesterday's post. The funny thing I didn't receive one negative piece of email. Apparently I have quite the progressive thinking audience.

This would certainly be effective advertising for me, makes me want to
go out and buy diamonds for the girl who does all kinds of great things
for/to me. I can see a certain portion of the female population getting
very up in arms about it though. Mostly likely due to the fact that they
do nothing for their men without getting something in return
first....Frigid money-grubbing bitches
He sounds a little bitter but I have my days where I feel the same way.

$2000 on earrings is ridiculous no matter what the person did.
I deserve the money or a car or something that I could use.
I deserve a lot.
Honestly, I'd just prefer to be treated well.
Am I gonna get it?
No.
Because everyone is off buying gold diggin', soulless wenches that happen to look good $2000 earrings.
Now, that's cynical.
I thought I was cynical! But she wins the crown.
I do want to point out that the first email was from a guy but the other emails were from women. So not all women are money grubbin', gold diggin,' triflin' ho's.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

Matt and I were coming back into town from work and there was this commercial on the radio. The comercial had this guy talking about his wife and how she had all of this lipstick and he could never remember the names of all the colors. All the colors except for one. You see on this one special day she had left a love note for him on the bathroom mirror with her lipstick and it was called ...passionate pink or some shit I don't remember. He reads the love note for the radio audience and then he tells us that he is getting her these diamond earrings.
...pause...
She took a $2.00 tube of lipstick and wrote some grafiti on a mirror and now he is buying $2,000 dollar diamond earrings. What kind of shit is that? I was talking about this with a friend at the Mag and he told me about this girl he was seeing that woke him up EVERY morning with a blowjob. Every single morning. Now that may be worth a $2,000. It was worth 2 grand just to keep him from being late to work for year.
Imagine this... a male voice: I woke up this morning like every other morning to my wife's practiced tongue. She is great in the saddle but her fellatio is the best. She does this for me every morning. Before I got married other women on those special occasions would wake me up the same way, but my wife makes every morning special for me. That's why I'm buying her diamond earrings from LeRoy's Jewelry.
Now that would be a commercial I could respect. I would appreciate the honesty
Let me know what you think. Am I just a cynical asshole or what?
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

Celestia is a free real-time space simulation that lets you experience our universe in three dimensions. Its friggin' cool. Its a little over 11MB to download so I passed on it for the link of the day. Ok, I'm a geek.
I just found out that some of my presents won't be here by Saturday. So a few people will have to just wait. A present or two won't get here until after Christmas which really pisses me off.
I thought I had found the new Lord of the Rings movie on AVI but it turned out to be an audio version of the book. No movie. So my dilemma was answered for me. I guess I'll be waiting until Wednesday.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

I have a dilemma.
I have been waiting to see Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring for about 2 years now. The movies is released in about a week. I read an article that the movie has turned up on video CD in the United Kingdom. So I immediately started looking for it on the internet.
I believe I may have found it and I'm downloading it as I type this to see if it is truly the movie. Now I know its not right to do this. Unless I'm completely wrong about this, downloading the movie is not technically illegal. I think the act of making it available to download to other people is.
Here is my problem, do I wait another week and see the movie in the theatre on the big screen with great sound or do I watch an inferior copy on my computer monitor. I may have worded that incorrectly. Its not an either/or kind of thing. I am going to see the movie in the theatre. They will get my money and I will joyfully give it to them for seeing the movie. I'm just afraid that I will ruin the theatre experience by watching it on my computer first.
This is a special effects filled movie event. Will seeing the Balrog on my 19 inch monitor lessen the effect of seeing in on the big screen?
What to do...?
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

I'm still trying to get all of my Christmas shopping done and since many of my friends will be celebrating at the Mag Saturday I want to be ready AND avoid the mall. I have to work all week and won't have time to go out and shop until Saturday. A very bad day to shop as far as I'm concerned.
So here is another short post because I need to be shopping online in the hopes that whatever I buy can be here by Saturday.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.
UPDATE: 4:52AM I have two more things I need to order and I believe I will be done. Now I'm going to bed.

The Mag Bar is celebrating Christmas this coming Saturday. December 15th. The bar is usually pretty crowded with all of the old school regulars trying to make sure they get there to exchange presents or just get to see some faces they haven't seen in a while. Nikki should be in town that weekend.
I still have several people I want to get a little something. I am over half way done which is pretty good for Dec 9th.
The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring will open Dec 19th. I have been waiting to see this movie for at least 2 years.
My schedule is changing starting this week, from this moment on I have Saturdays and Sundays off. Its so close to a normal human's schedule that its starting to scare me. I still have the 3PM to midnight schedule which I like so I'm not completely normal yet.
Speaking of not completely normal. My Grandmother is a very sweet woman who is fairly religious and will not allow beer to be in her refrigerator. She is normal, I however am not. I have this almost irresistable urge to buy her one of those beer hats for Christmas. You know what I'm talking about... those hats with the cupholders and tubes you use as straws. She would have absolutely no use for this gift.
I've been in an odd mood lately. Another example, Roy and I were standing outside the bar last night and this guy in a pickup parked so close to this little red car behind it that I don't see how the little car would ever get out of the spot, The guy who got out of the car just had that look of a total asshole. Real tight jeans, hair gel, a Garth Brooks shirt and he was telling the girl he was with how much money he spends in a week.
I had this urge to climb up in the back of his truck and take a big shit. He wouldn't see it until the next day at the very least and he would probably wonder if bigfoot took a shit in his truck bed because I squeeze out a man-size turd.
Now that I have left you with that mental image...
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.
