Drink Rum

Hello dedicated readers and people with nothing better to do.

This has been a rather crappy week. It seems like everyone around me is going out of their way to set off every hot button anger issue they can. I swear there's gotta be a "how to piss off Monty" blog out there that people are reading. It's working.

Fortunately, it seems that some of the crap is starting to subside.

Somehow I became the poster boy of racism after voicing my support for my county's crackdown on illegal immigration. I appreciate that it's a hot issue, but I honestly don't have the patience to hear anymore crap from anyone about how I should be helping my neighbors and whatnot.

Yesterday I finally snapped at someone from DC when they were talking about how my taxes should be used to fund crap programs for welfare illegal aliens. I responded, "You seem to be very generous with my money. (since it's my taxes in play not anyone from DCs) When was the last time you gave any money to an illegal alien? Do you only stand on your principles when someone else pays for them? I think I also called her a self-righteous bitch. That might have crossed a line, but I'm not interested in playing nice anymore.

But that being said, this post isn't about how crappy this week is. And it is. But how awesome next week is going to be. I woke up (late) in a foul mood because I'd been planning something really fun for today as a stress break from work (another pain) but that has since been overtaken by events and isn't happening... so I was bitter... but then the doorbell rang.

Usually, I hate the doorbell because it's ring denotes someone on my property that I'd rather not have on my property. But today it was the fed ex guy. He had a package for me. It was a significant piece of my halloween costume that had arrived early. Woo-hoo!

Packages in the mail is just like the good parts of christmas... so i unwrapped my surprise and was thrilled that it fit like it was supposed to.

More on that later.

I'm very thrilled halloween is on the horizon. The party is in about 10 days and if i can make it through the other crap that's floating around without getting myself arrested, I'll be ok.

Halloween is my favorite holiday. I haven't sufficiently prepared for it. I overbooked myself in the weeks leading up to the holiday so I won't be able to do what I really wanted to do for the holiday. I think that is the quickest way to hit "uber annoying" with me. For me to have set an expectation for something and/or planned and worked towards making something happen and then have it not happen or fail. That's my today in a nutshell.

However... Halloween is coming. That's keeps me focused.

This post really didn't gel like it should have. At least its maintaining the status quo.
