    For those of you who are interested :D   this is abreadpan sized two  porkchop atop a box of great value chicken rice/vermicelli  *rice-a-roni offbrand casserol wit ricemix  bottom dry pork chops, sesame oil for the fat and color part one with next a masterful dusting of chici powder…the old paprika for color thing and water  – this if not “colored” is a boiled dinner looking like

     or not even this good :D lol  however, joshy’s  not a bad cook :D so you occasionally get pretty food.  so pretty that sis worried it was too good to be tasty :D - the guinea pig said it was good :D

    While being dragged out for a beer, I was seated staring at the foster’s neon forlornly thinking of how this takes away from where and who i’d rather be spending time with…STARING at the place there where she is then the thought above…hey! this looks like a dog’s head :D   don’t ask, you likely will never quite understand my mental meanderings ;)  

    but now? as poetry pictures of how to cocktail napkin hhaiku.. you know a momento of me and my nigh sorry no pix they’ll likely not arrive so if they do I’ll edit but i doubt it.


    this is how i have to remember life… I can’t remember in short term memory for too long so the edited first response.

     

    alright, I was hornswiggled into a bar run for a beer. how annoying. the following: hi … hi.. stared at a foster’s sign and lamented being deprive of you time staring at where best my geography says perth is- point out lame trivia : why must a foster’s sign include tasmania?- because cascade brewery – the oldest in austrailian begun with convict labor is part of foster’s their claim to fame as i know it isn’t beer but mercury cider….. come on ‘ “ooooooooooooo “ I’m eating a twix here’s some because       .      was who lived in the old      and why my brother HAD to go was with her friend       . standard boat anchor behaviour is one should be friendly- I’m not trying to be mean but I want YOU NO ONE is is but you          but damn socializing…              was the girls fav band local dude with eric the animal on the skins swattin’s….drums… dramk my two rollings rocks yay brother paid me!           I went to the store got cour cream for potato or dip on pooper bowl coming up first week of fe ruary but is for potato I know it- I’ll save some steak to make stroke me off…oh sorry beef stroganov. high class buttered noodle with beef bits in a sour cream gravy – green beans for tonight whith what i got is totasted pine nuts and onion. steak and potato. before going         or       my older brother was over with a business listing of how to do up the get me laid blind social mixer trying to get blind people GIRL out and needs a lesson not in print about how to do what needs done with socializing not to bring in groups to make something instantly not fun yet he doesn’t get it those groups are there to help one NOT social blunder so i’m thinking of activities at a bar setting that don’t highlight the food get people talking don’t cost more that 20 a person leaving room for his cherished movie after “DATE:” I’m thinking shuffle board lame for the blind yes but! you have a hand on you guiding you to where the puck…fuck… is ooo sexual tension put a lil english on it….English crazy eights where it’s fun but a game of cards that isn’t uno but easy like it where the main prize is braille cards are accessible, fun can be had it’s socializing.. call crazy eights? prize. win the game prize fuck you neighbor get a mention etc. I’m drinking the boozed coffee i left it’s mmmm want one- whiskey coffee choc syrup and a splash of beery spash welches brand juice stir? the poems i wrote maybe a picture later are : red rope lights special- smoking, joking, provoking – a night on the town…. next a recipe for a chocolate martini for      the boat anchor- with a thankyou hello paid a tipped buck for cocktail napkins my coat often has a pen in it – I’m a trained banking pro in account highschool vocational scholl hahahahahahahahahahahahah “moo mixed with choc’late – creme de cocoa and syrrrrrup-ch’late martini…shit forgot the last line that’s annoying – the next non poetic lines are dust with cocoa powder, if you taste the booze you made it wrong – terrific time tonight tammi …blah me. last poem ” a concrete or shaped poem of best i can manage in script of a guitar—-facebook picture for later maybe, chinook’s mcinnis – strummin and drummin 2 night – for the tunes, just all. kinda cool. best ditch story sucked girl got busted outside the jr high side upper gym didn’t share renting disney and dirty movies at the vid store ;) - I told you that story nine and a half week rated r with disney’s robin hood wee looked twelve the counter lady tried hard not to laugh her fool head off and let us slide we thought we were slick ;) - I love you hug. deep breath want another twix?

  • socially sighting.

     

    the place?

    Dave and Buster’s

     

    the goal

    get blind people mixing *laid.

     

     for a little community support, tix reduced – but the goal is to mix. have fun. meet people…naughty way to say that is “meat people”  but any jerk can find the sausage… it’s lady’s night and the hotel ballroom if you remember your BLUES BROTHERS”    lady’s where are you?

     

    - laugh at me if you will but i suggest

    chicken: girls like chicken and veg plate’s easy to ask for but will be god damned if it’s the cheapest offering on the menu..so people have standards and class.

     

    ‘m sorry but to tell you of this in real time requires me to be …brash and or opinionated. i do actually care and i’m working with fewer words

     

    I suggest that shuffle board while not a blind person’s skill is fun in that its going to allow for touching..that electric connection with interaction…action..heh

     

    I thus selection italian rosemary chicken as the opening offering of a lunch buffet/if over twenty but better intimate with plate- 12 something a plate not too pricey not too cheap either.- caesar salad fettecini roll.  all parties must be over 21 as duh booze may not be featured but is a time honored social lubricant…someone I’m thinking of is laughing uproariously.

     

    logistics and social accumen require one to have help to find the place from the local train if folk are coming that way- most will likely arrive via assisted means which is fine but some wanna be independant.  but who the HELL wants to be handheld to the door except by a sexy sig O?  so social acumen must be considered… not a juerk.  or try not to be … anyways.

     

    I know it’s the dumbest game ever but small groups of socializing folk  can  groups gainst groups play some crazy eights as it’s uno sure but not uno it’s regular playing …poke her… cards brailled of course and not the  worst game for cheating at …shh it.. larceny is a time honored method of being dumb stylish to some.

     

    candles of the gift bags… and a rose.. who doesn’t want to feel special?  but with a brailled tag so it’s fucking identifuyable yet share a scentable… who’s up your nose tonight?  ooo nasal sex mmm. yeah yeah oh gross haha. 

     

    what i can think of is guy ish things that ccheap.. I don’t want a fucking “lame” candle.  I cant expect over and over free thumbdrives of music they aiint that cheap.    but something “cool” guys can laugh or talk about that’s textured cool and memorable….useful cheap.  games that aren’t as lame as josh calling bingo with 200 facts or so yippe of the number or UNO ug… but like shuffle board are interactive and electric.  I deas please.

     

    it can be managed for about 20 a head with corporate contributions.  no offense but I’m on a fixed income meaning 20 plus 12 to get to and from is expensive to me.  but if she’s cute i might blow 20 more and have a hell of a month out and chat on the phone… not me personally i want someone i already chatter with but i’m here at this event brother’s cooking up as i love him but want someone I found already.  plus i’m far too anti social anyways.

     

    next, no offense meaning this is insulting but many folk have the dining habits of pigs as blind folk and or normal folk and it’s entirely offputting to ladies of class even if they’re worse.  social grace means i want not the cheapest itemry but something not a damn sandwich but a classy lunch…noodles will  be all over the floor but the place gets paid and some staff will cover oops you’ve a slimy noodle on your shirt type stuff…hopefully this means mostly female staff because girls are better at social grace and auto cute for guys and acceptable to other gals typically.  sorry this is truth and documentable best case scenario to being succefssfull in  public customer service.  feel free to crucify me but i am not far wrong and chip’n'dales dancers are an acception but the sausage party isn’t remotely interested

     

    pool, lame because i can’t hardly play it sighted. darts same thing partitially sight.  and a real hazzard to be darted on a date?? outting…video games so don’t care if totally blind. dancing sure dj perhaps present  i do a mean conga line always = many summers of camp counseling but I can’t dance…oh go ahead sing that phil collins tune  no i can’t dance only thing about me is the way I walk.

     

    sports while gals are interested adctually but it can not be a tv and guys in sports church…not a mixer  not social

    it’s next door to a movie theater with I believe dvs actually.  good

    food’s covered, it’s a bar for chrissakes so booze is there but the point is the food and booze is to be there but not the focus nor but a simple option. 

     

    slap games are fun and that touching thing is cool but how to not cheat at it with braille?    I know!  anyone ever hear of egyptian rat fuck?  racculars?  like war you play but due to “cheating possibilities” no onlooks at the cards  they’re “called” if it’s a match…slap! you WIN if first biggest table winners and such not are prixes and yays whoopdie fuck it’s sorta fun and has a rude name for the over 21.  and?the pain of winning is a slap on the wrist :D   ahhhh electric touching again.  I know this is people with sight /staff intensive but fuck it it’s a sponsored outting and perhaps people like the tax write off and community good favor of “helping others”

     

     i’m thinking ring toss…ahhh another rude symbolism but for trivia.. i’l;l work on that and I’m a crack trivia dude duh I call trivia bingo already  I’m not afraid of lite embarassment as it’s all in fun  someone has to dress up like a shaggy bear as the booby prize for wrong answer dance with a fuzzy bear :D or something.. again interactive.. ideas people :D   please.  for the electric slide line of shame!  answe r right and you win? safety!

     

    shyness i’m considering I am okay at outgoing shine but not everyone is- so hmn how to allow and celebrate everyone?

     

    anyways. that’s one facet of my night … next post is cocktail napkin haiku as i get pictures :D

  • a different way to see.

    calculus formulas with a heart as argument sketched with white chalk on blackboard with eraser smudges Stock Photo - 5058451

     

     

    okay, why?  the opening picture is to show you the “F” holes on a violin- they exist on violins, guitars, mandolins, dulcimers,other stringed instruments.  the second picture is of a haha equation with love as the argument….caculus.  ooo the math matics of motions ;)   the third picture is of a magnifying glass looking over a lot of virus words repeated.. it’s point isn’t but to show you a ration of what I see.  the fourth picture is of a learning device…not the exact pushbutton get answer of 1×1 through 12×12 but close enough for you to understand  what I mean.  and a fifth sore thumb picture of a question…. deduction… still wondering why the cat suddenly went vegan?

     

    okay, my point here is a story if you can’t dig about and deduce what i mean how could you anyways but I want you to have a reason to read.  what the hell am i on about?   I’m on about seeing answers or pictures versus being able to figure or puzzle things….. in short memory versus deduction. rightish like learning versus leftish.

     

    I learned mostly by knowing the answers.  a shitty way to learn as that was my only underscored emotionally positive thing….   now in sixth grade when I was ripped from educational discovery to sit in a study hall with the degerates socially… special education.  I mean was not taken from class to discover I was sentenced to be ignored and bored labeled special.  now stop- it’s not my fault that I didn’t deduce the opportunity in front of me at what 11…just after a summer of saturdays watching calculus ooo ing the graphics and understanding motion but not the damn gibberish to explain it  – just the concept or the answers :D     I learned 2 years before some and still at a level i suppose through middleschool although I showed a very marked problem with?  mechanics of language- not what language and stories are but mechanics…what is a proper use of a comma?  shut up.  I can spell and probably better than a good many ;)   mmmh? prove it? kiss off, this is my blog and I have a reason not to perfect for you.  it’s hard to see what you do therefore I miss your perfection having had to guess the answers for 37 years… and I’m fairly good at it. 

     

    but stop, the point here is in a way left to my own devices, I learned what is only to “cheat”  thus a process of learning stopped within my processees.  the right answers, no longer important as much as the process speedily gaining right answers becomes important- this may be why college has elluded me twice while I’m still good at what I’m good at; I’m still testing the same 37 years later as roughly as fast mentally as I did at 7 without my glasses as i do now with my eyewear….hey we all fade in time  shhh.   I’m still pretty heh.  faded glory…smack my ass in me jeans…so to speak.   

     

    so I;m sitting in sixth grade and I see this calculus “f” integrated… to know that the “F meant that not fail  was a profitable thing to know because of this next thing learned

    13 x 13 = 169.  why those two things?  because what tests were designed to test was deduction and those same exact questions repeated for? six years.  I thus posess  a high grade on tests because I didn’t know that 13.x 13 meaning the answers important were 169, or the square root of 169 is 13…remember the grid learner picture?…again while the tool helped me to understand faster in a picture form what deduction means… it isn’t deduction. 

     

    now look at the last picture  of a mousetrap with a caption of: Still wondering why the cat suddenly went vegan?”   now ask yourself how fast it took you to get the joke….or if you get the joke….  I do and I can. ;) woot for me  but it took? not a jiffy hence this humor isn’t for me it took about a second or two… long enough to look stupid for not getting it and not want to play.

     

    this brings up the third picture… this is what i see.  I have to be about 2 inches from this fifteen inch laptop screen thus effectively see about oh 1/4 of it  even if I can guess the picture and what all the blur says in an instant hust like you can…and actually likely quite a lot faster than many…this also leads you to see me as smart.  memory and guessing, not deduction.  but the point here isn’t me special like that although if you think so, thank you.  the point of todays exercise is

    how do you pardon people who could have helped you not to be pissed off for being bunged into a room with degenerates socially to be bored feeling cheated out of discovery only to learn best i couled only to learn that such was cheating in a way, not to learn better study habits because that can’t be reinforced with out understanding which i sure didn’t get in sixth grade… how come i wasn’t taught to help people not social degenerates learn when I could help duh, I’m smart enough to in little ways learn to lead instead of

     

    learn to rifle through the emergency contact cards  learning all the cute girls’ phone numbers in the in-school suspension I got for being shown a lesson that adult didn’t care “” to teach me and school yard honor didn’t count for me I was turned in in precisely the time it took to beline to the monitor.  later decduce the other real bad boy of school – also bunged into the special ed area  for his horrible offense of running away from a fight during the all school assembly when the barreling ex-navy gym teach came steamtraining for his collison with justice….oh shucks anyone deduce that middleschool children are in far more trouble for ditching school than a fight?  good people :D   I told him why feel despondant, you’re busted, your made to feel sad- fuck em, you’re in a room with a television and a computer – games over here.  you’re supposed to not get society fine don’t watch tv or entertain yourself  fuck ‘em.  fuck what they want- you can’t beat them but you don’t have to play their game.

     

    that’s what i learned and not good deduction…rebellion… for you see I couldn’t figure out the good ways.  I was only shown irritants and how to deal with that on my own.  pity I wasnt’ helped to be more positive..who has the time? 

     

    how do you forgive people who fail you… not kidding i was told to take responsibility- It took me 4 IEP’s which by the way i attended in sixth onwards… I was so pissed that yet again  “taking responsibility didn’t mean stand to your music/consequences but?  don’t get caught.  I really do not like that I’m left to founder . 

     

    ever see a whisper of strong sense of independance because of a distaste to being labeled disable leading to a real life situation where i’ve upped a price for my salvation by being harder to deal with and less fun to teach?  to invest in?  choose… yet what do I want now then forever more? to be invested in?

     

    ;)   bet you didn’t think I’d go this direction with picture did you? heheheheh.
