Hey!, it's Monday 09 01 2014
So... I still check in quite often, just still not writing anything! Sigh... Whatever. Still bored, too. Adios.

Hey, it's Sunday 09 01 2013
So... I guess I was lying a little bit regarding the last post - the one dated 9/25 two thousand ELEVEN! Good grief! Well, the top part is still actually true. I log in quite often. I've simply chosen not to post what I write. Sigh... But then, it's also true that I'd like to start posting. I just don't. Whatever. Again, I'm bored now. Adios.

Wearing a Ring (Subtitle: Mm! for being gone so long!)
Been entering posts, just not publishing the posts. Like you care.
I decided that, as the final quarter of the year approaches, I wanted to get back to posting. Sorta. I'll probably STILL not tell anyone about this post. I have a reason, but don't feel like sharing right now. Oh, no, my mood is good. Upbeat. Yeah, I'm just sort of in a hurry for one thing, and a second thing is... as it usually goes, despite serious URGES to write, I get ADHD or ADD and almost physically can't finish writing the thoughts I have.
But today, today, the REAL TITLE OF THIS POST is more about wearing a ring. Some time in 2009, I had to take a ring off. Why? Why do you think? Because I had put on weight and the dern thing was too tight!
I miss wearing my ring. It has always been a "background" motivation to lose weight and wear the ring again. Sigh... I'm not like, super overweight, but some changes took place in late '08/early'09 and additional weight ended up on my body. Yeah. I know, right?
But anyway, I eyeball the ring nearly every day. And truth be told, I've lost some of that weight that I gained, but not enough for the ring to fit comfortably, like it used to. But today being September 25, 2011 - again, very near the start of the 4th quarter - I thought, let's put the ring on! Let's be uncomfortable in wearing it - even leading to near panic attacks at the idea of it being stuck on my finger! Let's wear the bloody ring!
So I am. The ring is on my finger. My motivation is on my mind! Let's DO it! Soon as I finish these dang Skittles!

Language Barrier
So, I like listening to the human voice, right? And that means I listen a lot to how people speak and pronounce words. (My peeve is ASK, which is constantly being pronounced as if it was spelled AKS. I'll come back to that one day. Anyway, another common incorrect pronunciation I hear is SCR for words that begin with STR, like street. People like to say "screet". And so, here's my joke from like, a gazillion years ago:
What's the definition of "indiscreet"? It's where you stand when you want to be hit by a car!

2008 Was GREAT! 2009 will be FINE!
Coming to you from the "upstate" of South Carolina. Got nothing to say, which has been the case for quite a while. I mean, PLENTY has happened, of course, like O-Ba-Ma, but everyone has spoken on that and there was nothing new or profound to add.
Anyway, as the heading says, 2008 was great, and all will be fine in 2009.
Try on some tolerance and patience this year. Throw in some integrity (which kind of means behave at all times- even when you think no one is looking), and let's just see what happens!

And then??
Hey - I've had a whole bunch of fun and wacky thoughts since the last post, but I haven't managed time properly, so... ya ain't gonna see any of those thoughts! In fact, most of them have become unimportant. As has been the chant lately, I just wanted to have some more words posted here for August.
L8r!

Levels of Cleanliness
I guess it might seem I have an issue with cleanliness, since there is an earlier post about not littering.
Yes, well, anyway. My unenlightened self is known to use references such as "that pig", "that fat pig" or "that nasty, fat pig". I would be refering to my neighbor's girlfriend who puts her nasty fat pig aura all over our apartments - mine and her boyfriend's. Our front doors practically touch, so it's easy for what they do outside to permeate into or onto my "space."
So, as I drove up and parked my car earlier today and saw her wiping down her glistening new, black something-or-other car, it just struck me how she values cleanliness in one area, but not in ALL areas. What I mean is, she goes through the motions of sweeping things OUT of her boyfriend's apartment and more or less, ONTO my side of the sidewalk that leads to each of our apartments. (And yes, sadly, my unenlightened self continues to miff at her remarkable inability to pick up the trash that misses her dust pan, or bag or whatever instrument she's pretending to try and sweep the trash into.) So in a nutshell, I'm saying, not a speck of dust can land on that new black car. She sees it, screams about it and works hard to keep it off her car. If only she had that level of care and concern towards the REAL TRASH! The outside of our apartments would look nice and clean and my unenlightened self would probably refer to her as a "fat pig" a few times less in a given day than I usually do!
And now, my unenlightened self wants to review:
1. Physical shape and outer appearance of nasty fat pig girlfriend of neighbor vs. outer appearance of new black car = "That fat pig" cares more about her damn car than she does herself or apparently, other people. And that, my friends, is... unfortunate. (In my opinion.)
Thank you very much.

Just wanted to scribble something in cyber space before the clock struck midnight. This way, I can claim a July 2008 entry.

Juneteenth
Hi friends!
No message this time. Just didn't like the fact that it's been two solid months since a post was entered, but as things go - an idea just came to mind. So, it IS June 19th and today is known as Juneteenth - to some people. That is, some people are very familiar with the date's significance, while others never even heard of Juneteenth. I've gotta tell ya, it's really in recent years that I became aware of Juneteenth. Well, that's not a totally accurate statement.
I've heard of Juneteenth, but never knew it was actually celebrated by anyone. Yeah, it's a big deal in Texas and supposedly a few states here and there observe it as a holiday. Oh, what is Juneteenth? Juneteenth is - and I quote - Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. - end of quote. You can go here to learn more: http://www.juneteenth.com/
And that's it. I'm tired. I'm done. Despite that I logged on just to say "hi" I've still managed to dispense some knowledge. Alright!
P.S. Some T-shirts are advertised on that site mentioned above, but you can also help support THIS blog site (Mindjabber) - and a friend of mine, by going to http://www.cafepress.com/freakentstore.12782090 and purchasing that Juneteenth T-shirt! We have a couple of Tees and we wear them proudly! Join us!
