doodlemaierThe hippies just left with bags packed, as if they plan to be gone for a few days (I can only hope). Maybe the heat got to be too much for 'em and since their house guest just left to return to Mass. they have no further use for the place unless it's comfy and nice! Right now it's hot as shit!
Just as well. Kathrin has Scotty believing that we've turned the a/c off just to screw with them. Their minds revolve around thoughts of oppression . . . just like in that song about the hippie chick. The truth is that the a/c's been out of commish here since the flood and we've dealt with it (so far) on this side in a more economical fashion - locally, with a couple of well-placed fans. Fuck 'em if they don't trust us - they can call a technician to come out, too, yanno. It's not like their fingers are broke! (oh, nevermind, that's like. . . responsibility, and stuff. The cost of which would cut into the dope fund. There's free and abundant cool air at her parents' house.) And if they want to say something about it I'll tell them that I thought they sabotaged the condenser unit because, as we believed, they had no ducts for a/c on that side of the house and wanted to equalize the field for when we ask them to pay half the electric. But, somehow I think that the point of how stupid they come off sometimes wouldn't convey when they are so adept at projection, themselves. And you'd think they'd ask, "Dude, what's up with the a/c?"; but do they? No, they've already made up their minds that we're the assholes and we're fuckin' with them!
I guess I'm just dissappointed that a psychology major doesn't exercise a firmer grip on her own mental states when they're so apparent to the people around her.

If they're gone though, I'll have to see about stopping by to visit you sometime. I've got a birthday coming up this weekend, a crapload of cash burning a large hole in my pocket, and a strong desire to share in the festivities.
Tony V. (and the clan) are taking me out on their new sailboat for a cruise on the weekend, but I plan to be partying all week. How about a bar crawl through deepest darkest Monday or Tuesday? You seem to know all the best places.
Oh yeah.. How about sending a nukka an e-mail addy sometime? You got mine.

Have you met Helen yet?

Smartass comment from the peanut gallery
Date: 2006-07-13 02:43 am (UTC)For those of you who don't know who I'm talking about, this isn't to slight anyone because they have a degree. Just those who toss it into every conversation, yet sit home and do nothing, or think they're smarter than those who don't.
Well, actually, I guess finding someone to pay for the degree and all other life necessities AND you still get to sit home and do nothing, IS smart. Nah, I like my life better.

Date: 2006-07-13 03:06 am (UTC)But the other thing I know is that I have a helluva lot of book smarts, but not as much other smarts. I've gotten better at emotional smarts and mom smarts, and even have a few ounces of common sense now, but ultimately, I know where my strengths and weaknesses are.
Wait, perhaps that IS common sense--that, and knowing not to tell other people all about their weaknesses unless they specifically ask for help with them.
