lazy brains

I don't know. Maybe it's just been so long now since I've had to deal with people on a daily basis that I've forgotten how lazy they are. Or maybe they're just worse now. It's giving me anxiety. Some days, a lot of anxiety. Ugh.

Like, people are still driving like they were a year ago, when there were A LOT LESS cars on the road. It's stressful and scary out there on the roads. Crazy speeding, crazy lane changes, not paying attention. Whoa!

People in general are so self absorbed! Yesterday I was in the Costco parking lot waiting to go because a woman and her cart, in the middle of the row, stopped to do something on her phone. Helllllooooo! I wanted to honk at her but felt like that would be rude. They do the same thing in the grocery store. Geez!

Nobody is thinking. Just doing. 

At work, we actually had to put a sign up in the restroom to tell people to clean up after themselves because it was such a mess all the time! Seriously. What the hell??

Everyone is just doing whatever the hell they want. I don't think it's just lazy brains though. Maybe they have lazy brains because they don't have any respect for anybody or anything. Or themselves for that matter.

Sometimes I want to give in and follow the crowd. It's so much easier if you don't give a crap. But then, in my core, I want to do the right thing. I don't want to park in the 15min spot if I know I'm going to be 1/2 an hour. I can walk the extra 200 steps from the far spot. I still put things back that I don't want, at the store. Most of the time, I still pick things up off the floor when I'm not at home. If you're not a jack(ass)hole or a bully, I'll let you in front of me, on the road. I try to pay attention to what's going on around me and be considerate. But, I still  have anxiety about people and negativity and brain laziness. sigh 

Random things....

 There's going to be an Aquaman 2 😃😃 I'm pretty happy about this.

The State Fair starts next week. Every year they have new foods to try. This year they're going to have a grilled cheese made with waffles! Uh huh. Also, frozen mocha coffee, which is really just a coffee milkshake. Oh, and Miss Piggy's Mac Daddy-mac and cheese topped with bbq pulled pork. mmmmmmm

It's almost the end of July????!!!!! Oh man! 

You should watch the daily videos on YouTube from doggydaycarefarmtrips.  Joy . every . day!

California came to visit us yesterday. There's a murky haze over most of the state - smoke from the California wildfires. Wow. 

In the parking garage at work, someone spilled glitter. Which is perplexing to begin with...but now, one whole level is sparkly. It's kind of fun.

What caused your happiest feelings? Do you know? For instance, do you remember how your first kiss made you feel? How about the first time a non-family member told you they loved you. Maybe someone just said something nice to you that made you feel happy, and it still does when you remember it. Birth of a child? The moment you fell in love. Your first 'A' on a report card. A fit of the giggles. 

Is there a famous person's death that was particularly upsetting to you? Some people cried and cried when Elvis died, or JFK. I don't really have feelings like that about the rich and famous. I will say though, it was upsetting to me when Robin Williams died. I guess because he committed suicide and my heart broke for him, to think he was in so much turmoil, mentally, that that was his only option. So, so sad.

And speaking of YouTube, there are a couple great 'world webcams' out there. You only get about 5 seconds of each webcam but it's fun to see the world in just a few minutes. 

Gay women and older black women like me. Why? 

Do you know what Hematite is? It's a common iron oxide. Kind of a charcoal color. It's pretty when it's all shined up. I have a hematite ring, that I bought at Wall Drug store in South Dakota. I wear it on my thumb so it really takes a beating! Still looks great, no scratches, doesn't make my finger turn green. I like it. 

Last - why aren't there any good comedies on TV anymore? They're all so dumb. OK, maybe there are a few that aren't geared toward high school humor. But it's hard to find a smart comedy. The writers of Frasier and MASH are long gone. There really aren't any good comedy movies either. In today's world, there should be more.

Things you probably don't know about me

I like dread locks.

    not for me, but I like the way they look.

I don't like man buns.

    Unless it's Jason Mamoa. Period

I don't like salty and sweet together.

    don't put salt on your watermelon!! ewww. and NO fruit on your salad. yuck

I'm a bird nerd.

    I know so much more about birds than you do :-)

I love events!

    even if they're not related to anything I actually like, I still like the event!

I don't like berries.

    strawberries are ok on shortcake but that's about it for me.

I love Funko Pop.
    Thank heavens I didn't discover them until late in life. I'm sure I already have too many :-)

I don't really like cake.    
    chocolate cake is yummy but I could live without it.

I don't like peanut butter
    I know...weirdo

Also, I don't really like chocolate

    except for the occasional Snickers bar

Purple is my 2nd favorite color after lime green.    

    after that, I like tie dye stuff

I've never had a same sex fantasy.    

    You'd be surprised at how many people do!!

I don't like sushi.    

    and yes, I've tried it. Same goes for oysters, goose, frog legs and snails. blech

If you really want me to do something, you have to make me promise.    

    I don't break my promises.

I could eat chips and salsa every single day.    

    just a little, but I would still want it every day.

I can't think of a single job I've had that I didn't like.    

    even the crappy retail ones.

I LOVE nature and being outside.    

    but I hate bugs, I don't like being hot, hiking sucks and camping out is not my bag. 

I love salty things so much that sometimes when I'm having a craving, I drink soy sauce.    

    I know how gross that sounds but hey, it's better than a bag of chips!!

I'm a kind person but I'm not a nice person.    

    Just ask anyone I've ever been sarcastic too!!

There are only two kinds of ice cream worth eating; Dairy Queen and Bryer's Butter Pecan    

    That's IT!

I like lima beans and liver.    

    Not together though. I don't eat either, but I like them both.

LGBTQIA2S

Lesbian
Gay
Bisexual
Transgender
Queer and/or Questioning
Intersex
Asexual
Two-Spirit

Lesbian and Gay - check, I get it. Except, they're both homosexual. I mean, a woman can say she's gay but a man can't say he's lesbian. See, even in the gay community the sexes have to be divided.

Bisexual - check, I know what that is too.

Transgender - ok, so you're transgender if you want to dress like the opposite sex and/or you want to be the opposite sex. Actually, they want you to say if they "identify" as the opposite sex. This one still confuses me.

Queer and/or Questioning - yep, losing me now. Isn't queer the same as gay? And what the hell is questioning? You want to be special because you're questioning your sexuality? Oy.

Intersex - The is a person who is born with certain traits of both male and female. Is that right? I'm actually not sure. I looked it up but I'm still not sure.

Asexual - this means that you don't have sexual feelings for either sex. That makes you special? I think that just makes you different. 

2 Spirit - Ummm, yeah. I didn't make that up. It defines two-spirit as a cultural and spiritual identity for indigenous people who embody both female and male spirits.

Wait, I think they forgot Pansexual. That means you're attracted to everyone! Like a sex addict?

Wouldn't it just be easier to say, heterosexual and non-heterosexual? Or is this just another way to keep everybody divided. Seriously. I used to work for a gay doctor. I've had gay friends. I have gay co-workers. For the most part, they could care less if I know they're gay. Why does the media want us to care?

Pandemic life 2021

2/3/20 - US Declares Public Health Emergency 

3/11/20 - WHO declares COVID-19 a pandemic. 

3/13/20 - US declares a National Emergency

The world shuts down. Countries seal their borders; sports teams cancel seasons; schools close and employees go home.

April 2020 - Businesses shut down, leading to massive job losses. By the end of April, 26.5 million Americans have filed for unemployment. We were told that if everyone just stayed home for 2 weeks, we could flatten the curve. Since then, we've been told so many different things.

June 2020 - The curve is not flattening. 5 million people have lost their health care insurance. Life is pretty much canceled. And it will continue through the end of the year.

July 2020 - There's a significant uptick in mental health cases/issues.

And on and on it goes and goes. Here we are, JUNE 2021. Most mask mandates have been lifted now. You're still required to wear one on public transportation, prisons and hospitals. Sometimes I wonder why. Did it help? How about social distancing? Did that help?

Still, after a year and a half, I see a lot of this; 
studies suggest
the CDC worries
we now believe
there could be

it might mean
a new study predicts

All of which just means the same things as, I/we think. Does that make all the precautions worth it?

In my life, traffic on my daily commute has picked up significantly. Drivers are worse than ever! Mostly because there haven't been so many cars in their way before now so they've forgotten. 

There are more and more people outside downtown. Portions of the mall are still closed though. Some restaurants are still only doing take out - labor shortages prevail. In general, we're going more places. That's nice for sure. 

Where I work, we've all been told to be back in the office by July 6th. I was really enjoying the quiet and the drama free environment. Most of these people are not happy about coming back to work either. For over a year, they've gotten to sit in the comfort of their homes, barefooted, in sweats or leggins and dorky t-shirts, temperature controlled to their liking, listening to music, smoking when they want, eating when they want, doing their laundry, playing with the dog, visiting with other family members who are home, saving a TON of $$ on gas and eating out. Yeah, it's been a pretty sweet gig for a lot of folks.

So, what's it going to be like for all of the people, everywhere, that have to go back "in" to work? They have to get use to each other again, seeing faces. Their routines are about to change drastically! It's going to be just as hard as when they all had to go home to work. I only have to give up 2 days at home and I hate it!!! I'm seriously going to miss that extra hour of sleep, loud music, a home cooked breakfast! and chatting with my fella when ever I wanted. Poop

It's been a helluva road, hasn't it? So much anger and sadness and loss. So much negativity and resentment. 

sigh

People, people, people!

I was really starting to feel like the pandemic population and traffic was normal. It was nice. You know, because I don't like people. But now that things really are getting back to normal, there are just too many people and too many cars in the world! They're everywhere!!! ick

Did you know, as of March 2020 there were 7.8 billion people in the world? It took 2 million years for the world's population to reach 1 billion, and only 200 years more to reach 7 billion. Wow! Conservationist claim that the Earth can only support 1.5 billion people. Hmmm. I wonder at what point will they know they were wrong? Granted, there are plenty of poor countries in the world but 6.3 billion people can't survive? According to Science Daily, 95% of the world's population lives on 10% of the world's land. But if you add in agriculture, we take up 1/2 of Earth's land.

China = 1.4 billion. That's 153 people per kilometer (.62 mile)

    China lost 348,399 migrants last yr
India = 1.3 billion. That's 464 people per kilometer

    India lost 532,687 migrants
USA = 331 million. (only 4.25% of the world's population) That's 36 people per kilometer

    USA gained 954,806 

Indonesia = 274 million. That's 151 per kilometer

    Indonesia lost 98,955

Pakistan = 221 million. That's 287 people per kilometer

    Pakistan lost 233,379

But!...A little country called Monaco has a population density of 26,337 people per kilometer. Is that even possible?! Monaco's total population is only 39,242!

The top 5 most populated states in the US are;

California = 39,613,493. That's 254 people per square mile
Texas = 29,730,311. That's 144 people per square mile

Florida = 21,944,577. That's 409 people per square mile

New York = 19,299,981. That's 410 people per square mile

Pennsylvania = 12,804,123. That's 286 people per square mile

The Hoosier state has a population of 6,805,663. That's 190 people per square mile.

US cities are home to 63% of the population but comprise only 3.5% of land area.

Apparently I should quit complaining about how many people there are out there in my daily life.

Vacation!

When we planned our vacation for the end of May, there was no sign of the pandemic abating. People were/are being vaccinated but most of the country was still under a mask and social distancing mandate. I knew we would have to wear our masks at the airports and on the planes. I was ok with that.

We had no idea though, that so many states would have lifted those mandates by the time we left! 

We were heading out west; Vegas, Utah, So Cal. Holy WOW! The airport was packed. Busier than any other time we've ever left at 6:30 AM. The plane was full. It was just nuts. We changed planes going, in Phoenix and coming home, in Denver. Indy has a nice airport. That's why it's been given the title of BEST airport for several years running now. We flew on Southwest. While I like Southwest's prices, I wonder if other airlines are similarly cramped in their cabins. It's hard to be uncomfortable for 3+ hours. But...the flights were uneventful, so there's that.

Our first stop was a day in Las Vegas. That's what this post will be about, Las Vegas. I don't even know where to begin. Their mask mandates had been lifted just a few days before we arrived. I want to preface this by saying, I grew up in the 70's. I lived the 70's, in every way you might think. I'm pretty far from being a prude. I'm pretty open minded, about most things. It's been 12 years since I've been to Vegas. OK, now that I've said that...Vegas is a horrid place. I use to really enjoy going to Vegas. The people watching was fun. The hotel lobbies and casinos were cool. Cheap and endless food. Cheap and fun shows and museums. Except that I got to see some family there, I can't think of a single good thing to say about it. You know that saying, "sin city?" It's no longer just a term of endearment. It really IS sin city now. I saw girls walking down the street wearing pasties. I saw girls wearing fishnet stockings and thongs with crop tops. I saw very little that required any kind of imagination. Lots of foreign speaking people. LOTS of people. Lots and lots of them. It feels a little grimy and it smells. I can't put my finger on it either. My brother said it's like a cross between stale beer and dirty underwear. Yeah, that's gross. If any of us weren't exposed to COVID, I'd be shocked. If any of us weren't exposed to any other vile behavior, I don't know what it was. Ewwww. Maybe it was just the freedom everyone was trying to experience after being cooped up for a year.

I don't think I'm that old. Maybe I am. I don't know. I know for sure though, that I wouldn't go back to Las Vegas to have any kind of fun. Maybe it's just the strip. Maybe if you go and stay in a nice hotel/resort and never go out to the strip, you'd have a good time? I thought it could be fun to go to Freemont Street buy my brother said, no, don't do that. It's like the Vegas ghetto now. That's a bummer.

Greed is the most powerful source of evil. I'm convinced.

Self love

What is self love anyway? I always thought self love was just accepting yourself the way you are, for who you are. Warts and all.

Wiki says; 

Self-love, defined as "love of self" or regard for one's own happiness or advantage", has been conceptualized both as a basic human necessity and as a moral flaw, akin to vanity and selfishness, synonymous with amour propre, conceitedness, egotism, narcissism, et al.

In general, other articles say;

* stop comparing yourself to others
* don't worry about others' opinions
* remember your value doesn't lie in how your body looks
* be kind to yourself

I see crap all the time about loving yourself and being good to yourself. Oh, I get it. It just seems like they meant something different 30, 40 years ago when they started saying it. Back then they meant, hey, you can't give a 100% of yourself away, it's ok to say no to people and to ask for help and be yourself. I don't think they mean that anymore. Now it's more like, hey, do whatever the hell you want that makes you happy. Don't sacrifice yourself for other people. Love who you are, but remember...you could be so much better if you had perfect teeth, a high paying job, bigger boobs, a partner who agreed with everything you said, a different hair color, bigger muscles, longer eyelashes, an expensive car, zero wrinkles and were thinner/taller/shorter. That's not self love. No wonder people are so stressed out and unhappy with themselves all the time!  

Maybe that's why the world is such a mess. Everyone is just looking out for themselves and doing what they want. Putting themselves first, or trying to. 

Just do your best  people. Do the right thing not the expected thing. And remember, no one is indispensable. As a matter of fact, someone gave me this poem when I was in high school and feeling like I ruled the world. It really stuck with me too;

Sometime when you're feeling important;
Sometime when your ego's in bloom
Sometime when you take it for granted
You're the best qualified in the room,

Sometime when you feel that your going

Would leave an unfillable hole,

Just follow these simple instructions 

And see how they humble your soul;

Take a bucket and fill it with water,

Put your hand in it up to the wrist,

Pull it out and the hole that's remaining

Is a measure of how you'll be missed.

You can splash all you wish when you enter,

You may stir up the water galore,

But stop and you'll find that in no time

It looks quite the same as before.

The moral of the quaint example

Is do just the best that you can,

Be proud of yourself but remember,

There's no indispensable man.

locally....

Do you ever just pick a destination in your home state and go there? We don't either. But we're trying to now. There's actually a lot to see in my home state. Last weekend we went to Vincennes. It's the oldest city in Indiana - it was a place before Indiana was a state and founded by the French in 1732. William Henry Harrison was it's first Governor and the 9th president of the US. His house was the first brick home in the territory and it's still there! Vincennes University is one of the oldest institutions of higher education in the US. 
There's a lot of history in Vincennes! They even have a military museum. I know that sounds dorky, but it was pretty cool. I'd never seen a tank in person. And it was a glorious Spring day and we didn't have to have our masks on :-)

Amazon

This is a FABULOUS list of FABULOUS things!!!! Also, she's fun to read.

I am proud to say that I already own several things on this list :-)  But there are several more that I want now!

Prancer

Prancer is a Chihuahua that was in need of his furever home. A couple weeks ago, his foster mom posted the most hilarious description of him. It went viral. It should have, it was the funniest thing ever!!! Anyway, Prancer was finally adopted over the weekend, by a lesbian who works in a women's rehab center. Perfect for both of them :-)

Here's the ad;

Ok, I’ve tried. I’ve tried for the last several months to post this dog for adoption and make him sound...palatable. The problem is, he’s just not. There’s not a very big market for neurotic, man hating, animal hating, children hating dogs that look like gremlins. But I have to believe there’s someone out there for Prancer, because I am tired and so is my family. Every day we live in the grips of the demonic Chihuahua hellscape he has created in our home. If you own a Chihuahua you probably know what I’m talking about. He’s literally the Chihuahua meme that describes them as being 50% hate and 50% tremble. If you’re intrigued and horrified at how this animal sounds already, just wait....there’s more.

Prancer came to me obese, wearing a cashmere sweater, with a bacon egg n cheese stuffed in his crate with him. I should have known in that moment this dog would be a problem. He was owned by an elderly woman who treated him like a human and never socialized him. Sprinkle in a little genetic predisposition for being nervous, and you’ve concocted a neurotic mess, AKA Prancer. His first week he was too terrified to have a personality. As awful as it sounds, I kind of liked him better that way. He was quiet, and just laid on the couch. Didn’t bother anyone. I was excited to see him come out of his shell and become a real dog. I am convinced at this point he is not a real dog, but more like a vessel for a traumatized Victorian child that now haunts our home.

Prancer only likes women. Nothing else. He hates men more than women do, which says a lot. If you have a husband don’t bother applying, unless you hate him. Prancer has lived with a man for 6 months and still has not accepted him. He bonds to a woman/women, and takes his job of protection seriously. He offers better protection than capitol security. This also extends to other animals. Have other dogs? Cats? Don’t apply unless they like being shaken up like a ragdoll by a 13lb rage machine. This may be confusing to people, as he currently lives with my other 7 dogs and 12 cats. That’s because we have somewhat come to an agreement that it’s wrong to attack the other animals. But you know that episode of The Office where Michael Scott silently whispers “I’ll kill you.” to Toby? That’s Prancer having to begrudgingly coexist with everyone when I’m around.

We also mentioned no kids for Prancer. I think at this point, you can imagine why. He’s never been in the presence of a child, but I can already imagine the demonic noises and shaking fury that would erupt from his body if he was. Prancer wants to be your only child.

So what are his good traits? He is loyal beyond belief, although to tell you a secret his complex is really just a facade for his fear. If someone tried to kill you I can guarantee he would run away screeching. But as far as companionship, you will never be alone again. He likes to go for car rides, he is housebroken, he knows a few basic commands, he is quiet and non destructive when left alone at home, and even though we call him bologna face he is kind of cute to look at. He also “smiles” when he is excited. His ideal home would be with a single woman, a mother and daughter, or a lesbian couple. You can’t live in an apartment or a condo unless you want him to ankle bite your neighbors. We already addressed the men and children situation. If you have people over he would have to be put away like he’s a vacuum. I know finding someone who wants a chucky doll in a dogs body is hard, but I have to try.

Prancer is available through Second Chance Pet Adoption League. He is in New Jersey but can be adopted anywhere in the general tri state area. If you’ve always wanted your own haunted Victorian child in the body of a small dog that hates men and children, please email njwoof@cs.com. Oh, also he’s only 2yrs old and will probably live to be 21 through pure spite, so take that into account if you’re interested.

Movies

 I love movies. I have a whole long list of movies that I could watch a 100 times. I'm not a 'go to the theater and see a movie' kind of gal though. I prefer to be at home, where I can pause it or fall asleep if I want :-)  Every once in awhile though, I do want to see something on the big screen. Sometimes because I know the visuals will demand that. Sometimes because I know you have to hear it. Sometimes, both. 

I don't watch all the award shows anymore though. I don't care that it's all about their egos, that doesn't bother me. It use to be fun to see all the actors, smiling, excited, dressed in clothes and jewelry that cost more than my home. You know, I love an event! Also, there are a lot actors that are so wonderful at their jobs. I just got tired of listening to their opinions, as a captive audience. Not cool. I want you to entertain me, that's your job. I don't care about your religious or political views. Geez.

Also, these days they're trying extra hard to make the award winners diverse. It's so obvious, come on! It's like Hollywood's version of affirmative action. And, they aren't even interested in giving the award to the best actor anymore. Need proof? Regarding Anthony Hopkins and Chadwick Boseman, both nominated for best actor. Hopkins won but I saw this in an article about them; "Hopkins' portrayal of a man struggling with dementia was worthy of an Oscar and should have been victorious, perhaps in any other year. Here's the thing: We're going to see that Hollywood legend again. The same can't be said of Boseman." So, they didn't want Boseman to win because his performance was exceptional. They wanted him to win because he died last year. 

The best picture Oscar went to a movie called Nomadland. Have you seen it? It was pretty good. It's on Hulu. And the story behind that kind of lifestyle is fascinating. It was melancholy and lonely and independent and purposeful. I liked it that it made you feel all those things. But have something happy to watch afterwards.

Edit: I saw last night that the Oscars had a 58% decline in viewers from last year. A historically low number. Hmmmmm. Well, no one went to the movies!!! Plus, I think people are like me, they're tired of being told how you should feel. I was thinking about that this morning and I wondered, if those celebrities that preach about social/racial/sexual injustice on award shows would do the same thing on their own dime. If they truly were activists, they would/should spend their own money and buy an ad spot or something. Really make it about the issue. 

the psychology of color

I love color. Allllllll the colors! I like earth tones together. I like cheerful and vibrant colors together. I like pastels. Pantone's color of the year this year is gray. Interestingly, gray is my new favorite neutral color! (And if you ever wanted to know about Pantone, here's a great article; https://learn.g2.com/what-is-pantone ) I love that colors make you feel something. Who knew that restaurants use red a lot because it makes you hungry!  Yellow makes you feel happy. Blues and greens are considered calming colors. Purple makes you feel creative.

And color makes you associate things together. Like, why does white and navy blue together make you think of something nautical? Orange and black are great together but you'll always think of Halloween when you see them. Why is pink assigned to girls and blue assigned to boys? I LOVE black and white together but WHY are there so many shades of black and white????  

No wonder it's so hard for me to choose a color theme. I would like to have a house that could change, seasonally :-)  In the summer it would be cheerful, red, bright blue and yellow. In the autumn, rich earthy tones. In the winter it would be all blues and gray. In the spring, pinks - orange - lavender - greens. See?!?!?! This is why I've had FIVE comforters/bedspreads in the last 10 years!! 

Sorry honey.

Wow!

 I am truly mesmerized by these!

All painted by a fellow named Richard Oliver, in Los Angeles. This style is called Plein air painting.

Just amazing!!!

picking on old people

This list was all about what older people should get rid of or stop doing in order to be considered younger.
humph. First, I don't really want to be younger...been there done that. Second, only about a 1/3 of it made any sense. See what you think;

* The mall - young people still go to the mall, I've seen them.

* Cable TV packages - I win!

* Writing checks - I win! I've been on the same box of checks for over 10 years!

* A briefcase - I guess the cool kids all just have backpacks now

* Catalogs - hey, I don't ask for that crap! That's not cool

* Socks with sandals - that's always been old

* Diamonds - really? That one surprised me. Young people are buying fake ones?!

* Hip clip for your phone - umm, ok, yeah

* Conspiracy theories - it's not surprising that the generation that was first exposed to media is the one most manipulated by it.

* High waisted jeans - see, this one doesn't make any sense to me, that's the fashion trend now!
* New Balance tennis shoes - because?????

* Denim shorts for men - I don't get this one either

* Phone books - I win!

* Cursive - NO! we're all still arguing about this one.

* Dress shorts for men - oh yeah, I'm in on this one

* Velcro shoes - stop it. Just because we believe in function over fashion?

* Knick knacks - oh come on?! Young people don't have knick knacks because they're young! They haven't had time to collect anything yet. 

* Paper bills - I win!
* Word art on walls - again, I see plenty of younger people with these. 

* Police dramas on TV - who wrote this list? That's all that's on! 

* Ironing - yeah, they want us all to look like we slept in our clothes.

* Fuzzy toilet seat covers - I win! But, have YOU ever known anyone with these? Me either!
* Crocs - ridiculous. I never  liked crocs but they sure are popular.

* Potpourri -I win!

* 9 to 5 work weeks - hahahahaha, yeah, we don't do that because we're retired! duh. Regardless, this one is stupid too. I mean, you can't telework from a bank. ((eyeroll))
