Another weekend has passed.
More parties attended, More friends to hang with, music listened to, dances done, drinks downed and fun times for the ages.
I spent time making two of my summer series of Dance CDs (Brighter Liteness, Fly Some DisDance) and now have tunes for my upcoming vacation. The PC seems to have recovered from its hiccup two weekends ago and is doing what it is supposed to do. We now once again have Corel WordPerfect installed on the 2 Vista PCs in the house and can once again do fully featured Word Processing on the newest machines.
I have a lot to look forward to and if I allow it, the obstacles that distract one won't have too much of an effect. There is always something coming up, but I can usually tell that it's on the way so I prepare myself for the out of the way eventuality. Some of those are self-made, I need to spend my time wisely, and not just burn through the days as if I will always have more. The rest of those seem to be friends who feel I am the ghetto google, the one who knows and they distract me from my day to ask me obvious stuff. Like phone calls for times/places/when stuff is gonna go down, like I'm just plugged into the city pulse or something. Or expecting me to find obvious stuff fun and fulfilling. Just cause its cheap doesn't mean I'm all over it. I think maybe my being nice in the past makes them feel they have carte blanche to disturb my day and ask me for sheer randomness. Or ask me if I wanna go someplace new they know about because they had heard that it might include something interesting. Pay Attention, I already know what I find interesting. There is a reason I go places again and again, it's because I have fun and I am tired of going to places that are as fun as a roach bomb going off before the pilot light is shut off.
Some people think that one bad experience means they should never go back, some people believe that if they just find the right combination of place and time the light will come down from the heavens and they will see the light leading to the best time ever. I believe a good time takes some work from the participants too, so I make sure I am fully prepared and ready to go. Not to some random experience but I go where I know the fun is. There is no crime in wanting to enjoy the time I set aside for just that purpose.
Some people are trapped in make believe or depressing scenarios that only bad things will continue to happen (no one will call their number, they will never meet anybody, people just want their bodies and not their love) yes, for some reason I know a lot of those people. Most of them are fun and friendly but they can get into these selfish modes when they feel the fun is supposed to be all around/about them and that if they aren't having the fun they deserve they should tell me about it. I do my best to lift them up, point them in the right direction, and tell them it hasn't been so bad so far, but sometimes they want it too often and they start to be a downer on my good time. Now that is a no-no.
To all the peeps who believe that your bad time is supposed to pull me out of my good time, it's not gonna happen. To all the ones who feed off of my energy and only stick around for the (rare) free drinks, I know who you are, and I am not amused. There was once a time when I was just too nice for words. Now I am just having a good time and happy to show it, but do not believe the show is just for you. It's really more for me.
