Contemplate a grape

Just for kicks!

1/31/11 – Yo!  It’s been a pretty darn good day.  I feel good.  I woke up and got straight to work.  I haven’t gotten overwhelmed or tired while working.  Maybe I’m on track to having a good week?  I hope!
No or very little nausea this morning.  My super sniffer is still strong.  There was one point during the day while I was sitting at the computer that I started sniff, sniff, sniffing.  “What is that SMELL?!”  I searched the house for a “gift” from Percy but none could be found.  All I can think is that he or Buster farted and it smelled overly strong to me.  I sprayed the entire house with febreze and lit a candle.  I wasn’t able to focus with the smell. 
During lunch I watched Bridalplasty – what a show!  I seriously worry about the world today.  I’m ignoring the fact that I actually watched the show and what that says about me.  I also watched a little Jerseylicious.  I am so a fan of this show.  It is like watching a train wreck.  I can’t tear my eyes from the screen.  I think I need to dress like one of the girls from the show for Halloween.
Speaking of lunch, I ate a double Snickers and contemplated grapes.  Have you ever seriously thought about or been confused by grapes?  Well, I can now say that I have.  I, Shea Bamberg, have been confused by grapes.  Not something you hear on a daily basis, right?  Well, picture this.  You’re sitting on the couch watching Jerseylicious eating grapes.  You eat a red grape and it tastes sour.  You eat a green grape and it tastes sweet.  “What’s going on here?!”  “What is going on with the universe?” Green grapes are supposed to be the sour ones and red are supposed to be sweet.  “Is it the grapes or is it ME?!”  So, what would you do?  I know I turned to Todd and said “Todd!  Taste these grapes and tell me which one tastes sweet to you.”  I was extremely disappointed because he refused so now I may never know.  It’s stuff like this that keeps me awake at night.  Some people may wonder which came first the chicken or the egg.  I wonder if the red grapes are really sour and the green ones or really sweet or if it’s all just me.  Deep stuff, I know.
This week is close week at work.  That basically means that we are closing out the month and are all busy.  I was glad to be given tasks to do to help out – working makes me feel a little more normal.  So, I sat at my laptop and turned up the music and work, work, worked.  I love working with music.  I think it helps me focus because it gives my mind some background noise.  I love Pandora radio.  I switch from music station to station.  This morning I was feeling Guns N’ Roses.  I have now perfected “Sweet Child of Mine”.   I’m taking it on the road.  Cover band?  Some of you may have though that accountants were boring – not so.  Some of us sing and add at the same time.  Multitasking at its finest!
Speaking of music, have you ever had a conversation with only song titles?  Todd and I decided to do that one day and it was hilarious.  I highly encourage this practice, though it is not necessarily appropriate for the work environment.  Here is a little dialog that I wrote out of song titles:
Alejandro: “Hey there Deliah!”
Deliah: “Alejandro!”
Alejandro: “I Never Told You” “Yesterday” a “Little Red Corvette” “Crash[ed] into Me?”
Deliah: “Shameless!”
Alejandro: I was drivin’ the “Cadillac on 22’s”.  The “Little Red Corvette” only had “One Headlight!”
Deliah: Was it “Bad, Bad Leroy Brown?!”
Alejandro: No, “Just a Girl”, “Iris”.  “I Ran” after her and all she could say was “You Found Me!”  I said “Call Me When You’re Sober”.  My car is “Broken” and wound up “Crawling” “Home”.
Deliah: You should have sent out an “S.O.S.” or used the “Telephone” to “Call Me”. 
Alejandro: You know, “My Life Would Suck Without You”.  “Whatever it is” you “Say You’ll be There”. 
Deliah: “Sweet Child of Mine”  I would “Sleep Through the Static” and walk through “Drops of Jupiter” if you said I “Need You Now”.
Alejandro: You’re “Unstoppable” but you “Should’ve Said No”
Deliah: Puh-lease.  “Big Girls Don’t Cry” and “What About Love”?  “Love is a Battlefield”.
Alejandro: “Hey there Deliah…”  “I Do Not Hook Up”.
Deliah: “Breathe” “Alejandro”…  “I’m in Love with a Stripper”!
Dunt, dunt, dum….. What will happen?  Will the girl who hit Alejandor’s caddie ever call?  Is Deliah actually in love with a stripper or was she just thinking of something quick to say to change the subject?  Will we ever know what is in the “Diary of Jane”?!
Tonight I enjoyed a relaxing night at home with some yummy chicken lasagna.  I am so in a pizza mood.  I would still like some Totino’s pizza rolls.  Why is it that they never really taste as good when you finally get them?  Even though I know that, I still want some.  My song of the day is “Up” by Shania Twain.  I heart this song!  “It can only go up from here!”  If you never listen to the songs you should at least listen to this one (Erin that means you).  It makes me laugh.  I’m considering doing my hair like hers.  Thoughts?
I’m feeling good and being positive about having a great week!  Night y’all!
