You Know What to Do

... But I don't.
It's weird that after all this time and "healing" I still feel ( immensely sometimes) that I am just on the outside looking in at the party. There are so many areas of my life that I don't exactly feel like I fit in/belong at all. No matter what I do when it comes right down to it I am forgotten behind and watch as the ones I care about go on their merry way. In the end where does this leave me? I truly hope that when they all get to where they are going there will be one among them that steps back from the merriment and asks " Where is she?" If not all of this will be in vain I suppose.

Why Don't We Do It in the Road?

I don't know if it is simply the fleeting season (Valentine's Day) or what, but it seems that the world is a little extra sexually charged right now.

Just today I got caught up in a conversation about "make out dreams". One in particular really where I was rudely awakened and by some sexy Valentine's miracle was able to return to it several hours later.

What I Remember and am Not to Shy to Reveal- Me and Lime Kool-Aid (not his real name... in fact is the delicious beverage I am currently drinking) are at a fancy club (perhaps a golf club) and are sitting alone in what can only be described as a billiards room. After some intricate dreaming about the crystal tumblers( that I was drinking scotch from) me and LK-A begin to make out. I take off my top and we continue to kiss well into REM (I have no idea how long I dreamed the making outs but it was for quite a while I'm sure). Next thing I know he stops me and says something to the effect of "This is nice but we should stop. I want to know you longer then a year". To which I reply "But I'm topless....." and his face says "I KNOW... but I'm a good guy." When I find my way back to this dream 2+ hours later there we are in the room cuddling and holding hands (god I love holding hands.... it really can be super sexy if you do it right). And that's what I dream about until I wake up.

Things That Are Odd About This Dream

1. I won't say how long I have known LK-A but it has been more then a year.


2. While I wouldn't not make out with LK-A he is not on my top 3 .... hasn't been on my mind that way in a while actually.


3. If I (or any other girl) was topless and making out with him.... he wouldn't stop it.


4. I don't drink scotch.

So yeah... maybe there is something in the water?

P.S. Go here to see more by the artist I used in this post.

The World is Waiting for the Sunrise ...

.... or in this case a lunar eclipse.
Okay maybe not the world... but I am and so should you! If you are a like minded Canadian and wish to partake in the viewing of said eclipse you should be looking for it around 9:43 p.m. AT (10:13 NT, 8:43 ET, 7:43 CT, 6:43 MT and 5:43 PT). I am told that all it will really look like is a reddish orange hue on the moon but still that's pretty awesome.

Lets see what other nerdy things can I talk about?

WEBCOMICS!

I love love love....

1. A Softer World
2. xkcd
3. Michael's Exciting Life
4. Questionable Content

1. A Softer World is not only disturbingly hilarious it is also hilariously disturbing. Comes with amazing photography!

2. xkcd is "A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language". I don't think I need to say more.

3. Michael's Exciting Life is.... unfortunately on hiatus. But the stuff in Archive still makes me giggle.

4. Questionable Content is... well pretty much like an addiction, but to something that is good for you. Like a fruit addiction. It's like "I'm really jonesing for another hit of that pomegranate" and being able to because the % of pomegranate related overdoses is rather low. (In fact drinking pomegranate juice could be beneficial for people with diabetes and could even prevent many deaths. The reason being that drinking pomegranate juice regularly can reduce the risk of atherosclerosis, which hardens the walls of arteries and is responsible for 80% of diabetes related deaths). (read it and you will know what I mean). ALSO to anyone who happens to read both QC and this blog.... Faye! Sven! Sex!

Hello Goodbye

Hello all. Your seeing this means that, yes Hell has frozen over and a blog involving me has begun. The time has come it seems for even more randomness and utter uselessness to be contributed to the Internet... yay! I guess this is really just me getting started so I don't have much to say really. I guess I will tell you what my intentions are with this blog and bid you farewell.

I aim to deliver randomness and nothing more really. Black Plaid/ Pink Flamingo is a team effort so from time to time it wont be me writing. Topics will very and we look forward to reading any comments that may be posted (assuming anyone is even reading this). So if you like what you see I highly suggest continuing to read.... makes sense don't you think? Right well the first blog is always a bit awkward and I am done it now.....
