For baked_trout's eyes only...

It was an idiosyncratic morning for me today, to say the least. When I awoke from a very restless nights sleep at approximately 7:30 AM, I first stared at the ceiling and asked myself... I need to call someone to clean those mirrors... J/K everyone, I'm not that kinky. I actually asked myself... where did the week go? It was a typical busy week with travel, family, writing, etc., but yet I felt I had accomplished very little. I reached over, kissed my sweetheart and hopped out of bed.

I went into my usual Sunday morning routine by starting out with an Ola Loa Vitamin Energy Supplement Powder Drink. I went outdoors, took a deep breath, grabbed my newspaper and headed to the washroom for a bit of reading. As I headed down the hallway, I thought to myself... that's odd, not many cars in the streets for a Sunday.

The paper seemed a bit light for a Sunday edition, but I figured that once again I had a copy... minus a few inserts i.e. ads, TV guide, etc. As it turned out my glasses had been removed from the spot I normally leave them after brushing my teeth and heading to bed... atop the medicine cabinet. Not knowing exactly where to look for them, I put the paper down, and figured, it's Sunday, I have all day to read.

A quick cold shower, a 1-hour workout on my lower body, a bowl of Kashi Heart to Heart raisin spice instant oatmeal with banana slices, a cup of hot green tea; followed by another cold, more lengthy shower, and then off to the sofa for a day of football.

The first cold shower I take is to bring blood to the capillaries, therefore increasing circulation throughout the body... also it assists in the cleansing of the circulatory system. (I guess I could have just said, to get the blood flowing.) The second shower assists in flushing for the organs and provides a new supply of blood. It also strengthens the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems and also contracts the muscles to eliminate toxins and poisonous wastes. But most importantly... reduces blood pressure on internal organs.

Sorry about that! TMI... I know.

So off to the couch for some football pre-game shows and hopefully a good game today.

WTF???... Today is only Wednesday? What happened? What is wrong with me? I heard church bells, I know I did. I must be exhausted.

=)) ... I feel so stupid. The bells I heard ringing were related to the comment left by baked_on_weed_and_drunk_off_moonshine. =))

It's quite possible that I do suffer from Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). I do spend time "acting" as you say... that is while I'm in chat anyway. I do present, not to the world but to chat a "false image" of myself as Narcissists are very reluctant to open up and trust. And yes, consequently I have become a "master of deceit", because I have long desired the need to become a "sonner" and I believe that this is one of the prerequisites.

Arrogant or confident, that is the question I ask of myself? I guess I must say a little of both. Arrogant inside the chat world and confident outside maybe. There's an infinitesimally thin line between confidence and arrogance. The theory is, nobody enjoys being in the company of an arrogant person. Even arrogant people will admit they dislike pomposity... in others anyway.

Unfortunately, our society encourages shrewd business deals and below-the-belt punches, which aren't the niche of alter boys like you. Confidence alone can and should get the job done, but it is often easy to fall prey to pomposity. Learn the difference... and know that you need to be a little of both to get ahead in life... and I'm not talking chat life.

"trying to conceal there true feelings" is what you state in one of your paragraphs... now see if I were truly arrogant, I would revel in the blunders of others, yourself included... but as a confident individual when the time calls, I can be of assistance to others in correcting THEIR slip-ups. Again, learn the difference.

As for greed, admiration, and popularity, that was never high on my priority list. It is not necessarily my fault that I put a product on the table and the people gobble it up.

I mean hell, you seem quite disappointed in me... (for more reasons other than this blog I imagine) which I care not to discuss here YET... but mainly because I... "find some sadistic pleasure from the misery of others"? You're one of my biggest supporters, I feed off people like you and your comments. What makes you any different than me?

In closing, I would like to admit that I am a "tad bit immature"... as some people are a tad bit exhausting, some a tad bit annoying, some a tad bit ditzy, or even a tad bit drunk. Nothing wrong with that now, is there?

I'll admit that my reasons for starting and continuing to write the blog are purely selfish. I do this to clear my head. I never anticipated anyone caring enough to read this, much less comment, link, and blog about anything I have to say.

That said, to my surprise and delight, I find myself tapped into a robust community of like-minded souls. This has made me curious. And more narcissistic than necessary.

LOL!!!

Remember... tomorrow is another day... live boldly, take risks, go a day without chat!
