How it's been lately...

Every day, i wake up to the same thing. There's usually a cloud of smoke hanging over my head, and I choke on it a bit. That's how I wake up. Choking. I look up from wherever it is I wound up going to sleep the night before. If I'm lucky enough, I managed to get a spot on the couch before everyone else passed out. Usually, someone is playing video games on the TV in the room, and it's just distracting enough so I can't get back to sleep. Then I wake up and sit at my computer, still wearing the same thing I did last night. And I sit. For hours. Just sitting. Online, doing nothing. Trying not to think about food or cigarettes, because that's what I want. Unfortunately, because I don't have any damned money or a steady job that actually gives me fucking WORK, I don't have those two things. So I sit and try not to think about those things. Eventually, yes, I'll get hungry and make some food, or eventually I'll cave and ask someone for a smoke. I don't want to, because there are a lot of us here and none of us can really afford to be here. It's really all kinds of fucked up, and there's no justifying it. There's absolutely no reason one person should have to pay for all of us moocher assholes, but it's what happens.

On occasion, I'll clean the kitchen. Sometimes I'll draw, sometimes I'll make new music. Other than that, all I do all day is sit here and drain on a very good friend of mine. I sit here and watch him get sucked dry by a bunch of fat ticks, all the while, sucking him dry myself. It's a sad sight. I'd move out. I really would, but I know my family can't have me right now, and no one is going to do the same thing that Seth's doing right now. Nobody would do that. I'm still wondering why the fuck Seth is doing it, to be honest with you. It hurts me to see him struggling like this. He bought a shit ton of food not but two days ago, and it's all but pretty much completely fucking gone. So now I'm here. Sitting at my computer. Pretending I'm not hungry and that I don't want a cigarette. And I'll be here forever. Because nothing ever happens here. Everything's the same. God damn it.

Ow... My heart. >.O

So, I happened upon this little entry on Geekologie not too long ago, and on a whim, decided to give it a go.

Andrew and I went out to Wal Mart and picked up everything necessary to carry this mission out...

Which was, pretty much just bacon and cheese.



First, I made a "carpet of bacon" if you will. The first layer. Mmm, bacon carpet.



Then, the bacon weaving came into play. (Andrew was LOOMing over me with the camera. GET IT? LOOM? WEAVING?)



Mmm, the tastiest tapestry ever.



BACON ATTACK!



All woven and ready to be put in the oven at 400º F for around 15-25 minutes.



Save the rest of your bacon for a totally awesome breakfast. Or just eat it right then.



Aaaaand it's almost done!



Remove bacon from pan.



Of course, blot it with a paper towel to remove excess grease. (We don't want to die of heart attacks immediately, we want to give it SOME time to kick in.)



Why does Panda look so happy? Because it's time for the next step...



CHEESE!



And Andrew had to open it for me. Because I suck.



This is what it's like to be my hand as I'm reaching for the cheese. I know, artsy.



Add a veritable mountain of cheese, and then...



Roll! We're done here!

Needless to say, it was devoured immediately, and we were all pretty sad that we didn't make 7 or more. This seriously is the best thing ever. The only way this could possibly be any better is if we had put jalapeños and hot sauce right there in with the cheese. That would have been heaven.

Well, I feel like I might die. I have the taste of copper in my mouth, and I can't feel my left arm at all!

Stay tuned until next time, when I make a burrito out of bacon spam and chef boyardee!


Until then,

Thorny

Have you ever...

Have you ever hated someone because they were too cool?

Have you ever met someone that you thought was totally awesome, but hated their significant other because you thought they were just good people? This leads me to believe that it's way easier to hate someone than it is to like them, especially when jealousy is involved.

On a related note, (and no, this hasn't happened to me yet, but it almost has) have you ever been drunk and browsing Facebook when you wanted to look at someone you like's profile, but you type their name into your status bar instead of the search bar; thus accidentally posting their name as your status?


...Because that would really suck.
