It was somebody's first day in the department today. I was trying to turn half of an hour's work into an entire day's worth, so I was all too eager to drag heels around the building and give him a tour. Not even at our first stop yet, I ask him, in a jocular manner, just what disease he was faking to get assigned at the command. Turns out he has cancer.
All the shit I felt like complaining about this morning doesn't matter. So I'll just brush it all off. The vomit that the "vomitor" forgot to mention, in the garbage, in my kitchen. The tow company, that's holding my car hostage, neglecting to maintain active negotiations. The festering indignation for and an increasing disappointment in a certain fucking someone that picks the shittiest days to make my stomach turn. The friends who expect me to visit them in California, yet never return the offer by visiting me here (nobody on here). The guy who isn't me that's been staying over at PJ's for a couple of weeks now. The fact that I'm sick of being with people who take everything and give nothing, and keep expecting more because I'm so generous. Fuck it all.
So now I'm just trying to relax. I did some writing earlier, and now I'm cooking with beer (as an ingredient and as a beverage) and perusing the websites of the local rescue shelters. My chief sent out an e-mail today, an advertisement for a litter of puppies that he was selling, of few of which he has already, I fucking kid you not, "solded." They're malti-poos, which made me giggle, but not exactly a breed I'm interested in. I really shouldn't be looking at getting a dog, but it's really, really tempting.
You know what else is tempting? Growing a fucking moustache. I don't know why, but I'm really in the mood. I'd rather be growing a beard, but that's not going to happen anytime soon. Plus, moustaches are just awesome.
(I made it!

I got two new albums today:
As Tall As Lions - As Tall As Lions
Polar Bear Club - Sometimes Things Just Disappear
Also, these two songs had been stuck in my head all weekend and well into today:
I can smell the food in the kitchen. It smells amazing. Thank you, beer. You make everything better. And I eat now.
UPDATE: Beer chicken was amazing, of course. You know what else is amazing? The next Portugal. The Man album being available an hour before it's release date. I bought the special edition, which includes acoustic version of all the tracks. Now excuse me while I dive into this album, repeatedly, for the rest of the night. Awwwww yeah.
