We're at the halfway point! The week's almost over! I'm looking forward to Friday since that's my payday. I've been eyeing a few things but have been sparing my wallet and bank account for the moment, lol. I got a nice surprise today 😄 My parents stopped by with McDonald's for my roommate and I, so they spoiled us for lunch. Also, my dad seemed really surprised that I knew the song Private Idaho by the B-52's when it started playing during a movie we were watching. Growing up my dad would blast music around the house, and he frequently played the B-52's. Granted, he played Love Shack more than any of their other songs, but they made awesome music! Rock Lobster is my personal favorite from them.
After my parents and my roommate left, I spent a bit of time on here. I'm beginning to dip my toes into the forums here, so you should expect to see me more often! This is my first website where I've interacted with the forums and have commented stuff before, so it's all relatively new to me! I mean, I do have a Reddit account, but I primarily just use it to see what people thought about a certain episode from a TV show I like or what they thought about a certain movie. I think I've mentioned this before, but I'm relatively quiet both in person and online. I'm trying to break my shell like it's a piggy bank, lol.
I had work today at 4 PM my time (EST), so that's where I've been for a good few hours. I'm currently working a seasonal office job, and the work is relatively easy. My boss doesn't really give us much to do, so I utilize the time to study and work on my summer course. Work was overall quiet, so no complaints here! Honestly, the entire time I was there I was just thinking about what to make myself for dinner.
I got back home a while ago, and decided to make myself fettucine alfredo (with storebought noodles and sauce, I'm lazy, I know) for dinner. I was typing this out when I put the pot of water on the stove, but now it's done and ready to be eaten by yours truly!
But before I absolutely devour this bowl of pasta and end this blog post, I'm going to also add in a poem, like always. ♡ I figured since I posted "Sweet Smell" first that I would post "O Son of God" next. Here it is!
"O Son of God"
Kiss me, O son of God
place your lips against my skin,
and heal me of my ailments.
Touch me, O son of God
lay your gentle hands on me.
Gentle hands that have created the world,
and can destroy it all the same.
Make me a martyr, O son of God
but make sure the cross is turned upside down,
because I could never be worshipped like you.
Baptise me, O son of God
dip me in the lake,
help me wash away my sins,
and make me in your image.
Who would've thought,
O son of God,
that those church signs were right?
I'm a good girl now,
O son of God,
I'm a believer.
Won't you love me too, O son of God?
Won't you believe in me too, O son of God?
(Ironically, I don't actively practice Christianity anymore, yet I still wrote this.)
I figured since I mentioned the B-52's earlier, that my fun fact would be centered around music: The Beach Boys knew Charles Manson, and he even wrote a song for them!
I'm going to go and eat! I'll keep the site up in case any messages come through, but I don't think I'll be on later tonight as I'm going to be hanging out with a friend I haven't seen in a while. Take care everyone!
