CelebrityFIST!

Happy 4-20 everyone.  For the uninitiated, 420 is commonly the term used to refer to marijuana.  Its origins are kinda murky but seems to goes back to people meeting after school someplace to get high (around 4:20pm).  Since then the numbers themselves now refer to marijuana in general and many places ‘celebrate’ 4/20 of each year but … well, getting stoned.

Chaoz has never done pot.  Not once.  Nunca.  Does he WISH he could smoke a blunt?  Dude, if it was legal I’d be GROWING the shit most likely.  Quit my regular gig and just look like Eric Stoltz in a t-shirt and bathrobe. … But it ain’t, so I’m not.

That said, we’re gonna do our best today to ‘celebrate’ 4/20 in the proper way.  I thought I’d get started by letting you all know that the Cheech and Chong gig that I saw so many months ago has FINALLY hit.  Here’s a trailer for it.  The DVD is called “Hey Watch This!”.  I’m not in the trailer (sadly).  If I was I’d tell you.

Quick note - during the ‘driving’ skit the backscreen actually projects real streets here (mostly on the Hispanic side, natch).  Fuckin’ hilarious to us here though obviously 99.999% of everyone who sees it won’t get that little easter egg.

I am SO going to Hell at this point.  I think even my scruples have said “Fuck this, I’m outta here.” 

[I had a long post of current events but will post it more discreetly - sorry]

Anyway, I’ve been out partying the last few days and this is probably the first time I’ve been sober since Thursday afternoon (I keep thinking today’s Tuesday).  Fiesta does bring the ‘chaos’ outta Chaoz here.

Here’s a song that summarizes some stuff I’m going thru:

Well the good news is I’m finally on vacation.  The bad news is how long will it take before work tries to intrude on it.  I give it 12 hours…

Okay, we’re gonna start with a song running on my phone lately.  To me, its as topical as ever.

Supertramp - “The Logical Song”

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
a miracle.  Oh, it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they’d be singing so happily,
joyfully, playfully - watching me.
But then they send me away to teach me how to be Sensible.
Logical.  Oh, Responsible.  Practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so Dependable.
Clinical.  Oh, Intellectual.  Cynical.

There are times when all the world’s asleep,
the questions run too deep
for such a simple man.
Won’t you please, please tell me what we’ve learned
I know it sounds absurd -
but please tell me who I am.

I said what would you say they’ll be calling you “A Radical”.
“A Liberal.”  “Fanatical “  “Criminal.”?
Won’t you sign up your name?  We’d like to feel you’re
accept-able, respect-able, present-able, a vegat-able!

At night, when all the world’s asleep,
the questions run so deep
for such a simple man.
Won’t you please, please tell me what we’ve learned?
I know it sounds absurd:
but please tell me who I am.

Who I am.  Who I Am!  WHO I AM!

Cause I’m feeling so Illogical.  Digital.  So unbelievable…

Evening all (or morning; depending on your location).  Just got outta work and things or returning to normal (which is the normal state of uncontrolled chaoz that drives me up the fucking wall).  Plus, I met up with an old friend - Pseudo-monster.  Who?  Its a combination of pseudoephedrine (which I take - legitimately for nasal congestion) and an energy drink; Monster in this case.  My allergies have been like shit so I’ve been taking the PSE for a few days and I was at work and decided to drink a Monster (which I do on occasion).  Of course, its been ages since I’ve taken the two together.

…talk about fucking someone again at first sight…

I cannot recommend taking it since it could very kill you (the combination gave me high blood pressure when I did it when I was younger - then it was PSE and Red Bull) - but still…

Well, on that chemically-altered note, I give you the opening scene to the series “Breaking Bad“.  Easily one of the best shows on Earth right now.  Premise is simple, a nerdy chemistry teacher finds out he has cancer so he decides the best way to financially secure his family is to turn to a life of crime for some easy money - basically by cooking methamphetamine.

…as you can see, its not easy being Bad…

This was basically what happened to me at work.  Just extend it for 8 hours….

Someone said to get drunk and hit someone - I may have to take that advice this weekend.

Alright, not really.  What you see is the newest meme to hit the web.  We had ‘Dramatic Groundhog’ so now we have ‘Shocked And Appalled Cat’.
