Malt Liquor Tastes Better When You've Got Problems
I had a dream last night that I bought a 40 of Old English. That's something I haven't done since high school. There were these other ones that we'd buy as well. Bulls or something. My god were they ever terrible. I remember when I lived in Montreal they had this Orange flavored beer that we'd get at the dep across the street in these huge bottles. They tasted like a combination of crappy beer and Tang. I can't for the life of me remember what they're called though. I believe there is a picture of me somewhere with two bottles of the stuff. I'll have to search for it and see if I can real the label. I can't believe I actually drank it. I don't think I was actually able to drink a lot of it actually, it was more a novelty really. "Orange beer? Sounds tasty! I'm in!" For the record though I was going to school and not working at the time. No fancy, schmancy beers for me, couldn't afford it. Ahhh, the good old days.I'm really looking forward to the weather getting a wee bit warmer. Like 70 or something. I want to open all the blinds/windows (even though that will make all the spots that I need to dust painfully obvious) and just sit around drinking coffee and perhaps reading or something. I honestly doubt that will happen because I'm always busy. Even if I'm not actively doing something, I'm thinking about the things that I need to do. My head is always super busy. I wish I could fully and completely relax, but I always have so much to think about. Maybe I have adult ADD. Or ADHD, it's hyperactive cousin? Actually I'm fairly sure I don't have any ADD type problems because I can focus on things, too much in fact. What's the opposite of ADD? Maybe I have that. A former co-worker and friend actually thought she had Adult ADD to the point of going and getting tested. Turns out, according to the test, not so much. But I still think she'd like to believe she does.
Anyway, back to me. I think that it would be nice to take a little vacation from my day to day life. Just turn my brain off and not have to think about anything for awhile. Ahhh, if only. A real vacation would be nice too, but I have issues about that. I blame it on laziness, but I think it's more anxiety. I often worry that Shawn's family think we don't visit them often because of me. Though honestly I don't think that's the case. Shawn isn't so keen on traveling lately either. So put us both together and we seem to go nowhere. Actually I can't remember the last time we went anywhere. I think it must have been Denver, umm, 2 years ago? Wow. That is quite awhile. Granted we did go to Salt Spring Island BC a little more recently than that, but really it was just overnight so it doesn't really count. We need to get a few things taken care of and then I think day/overnight trips to Vancouver/BC every now and then would be just what we need. Not to mention a good way to stock up on all our favorite Canadian treats that we can't get around these parts.
