The reality of more hours

Me: (looks at money, realizes needs more. Realizes that to get more, needs to work. Doesn't want to ask for more work. Goes anyways)
Manager: (looks up at arrival of  internally conflicted employee) Yes?
Me: I would like more hours please. (eyes burning pits of  regret and anger)
Manager: (slightly disturbed by rolling waves of  hostility radiating off of employee) .... Okay.
Me: Great. Thanks. (Walks away while screaming hysterically on the inside)

An Ode to the First Day Back

Today was my first day of school.

I couldn't help but simply drool. 

What sane person arises at 7:30?

Curse my driven mind,

 for getting me up this early.

Four classes are ready to go,

to crush my hope,

and steal my soul.

Oh how did learning

become such a drag?

I'm stuck in a seat,

while children play tag.

The ghost of homework,

will haunt me again,

I'll never see the sun,

or be free this weekend.

School has come,

There's no way to hide it.

None have prepared,

I hope I survive it.

My Netflix Existence

Here's a sad poem about my Netflix existence.

My sister and I are about to watch Barbie: Life in the Dreamhouse. 

Truth be told this isn't the first time. 

I'm not a child. I'm an adult. 

 I've never been prouder of my standards.

It's so sad it doesn't even rhyme.

The Quest for Food

It's funny what lengths people will go to to get their food.

The other day I was driving down a boulevard and there were three lanes going one way. We were all going about the same speed and traveling down the boulevard like good little cars. I was in the middle lane.

All of a sudden, this car that's in the third lane over on the right, veers across two lanes and hurls itself into a McDonald's parking lot on the opposite side of the road. 

I swear it was one of the funniest things I have ever seen. 

It just showed the desperation and split second panic someone had when they realized that they were about to pass the food place they wanted to go to because they were too many lanes over. They had a decision to make; turn around and try again, or risk their life and the lives of others by cutting across two lanes in their quest for fast food.

Eh, it's Mcdonalds, it's worth it.

An Ode to Night Owls

It is 12:47,
I should have been in bed by eleven.
Staying up late is easy,
Getting up early makes me queasy.
Sure, I get up at 8:30,
But where's the joy in going to bed early?
"You'll regret it tomorrow,"
My rational side hisses
"Tell it to my lawyer!
"It's what heart wishes!"
I will stay up for hours,
Watching my favorite show,
Nothing will stop me!
Sleep, I don't know!
My eyelids are drooping,
My head is stooping,
Signs to go to bed?
Nah! I'll just keep on looping.
12:47 has passed,
2:00 AM is here,
Goodbye morning happiness,
Hello angry sneer.
Night owl,
It is what I am named,
My spirit is restless,
Refusing to be tamed.

{O,O}

My Thoughts at 12:46 AM...

1. Why is my face have the word ace in it? Like, my face is the ace in the hole.

2. Why don’t lizards have wings? What if there were a bunch of lizards perched outside on my roof right now, and one leaned down looking through top corner of my window and hissed at me? (checks window).

3. I wish snow was made out of chocolate milk. Then the snow would actually be chocolate ice cream and when it melted on your tongue, it would transform into cold, frothy chocolate milk.

4. What if we’ve already been taken over by aliens and they’ve just given up on trying to take over the hard way and have settled for taking over through politics?

5. What if really useless junk was worth a lot? Like, if a bunch of people were arguing over buying someone’s old toothbrush? What if people only wanted useless junk for the memories attached to them? What if memories were a currency?! Argh! (mind blown).

6. If I could ask a seagull for one word of wisdom what would it say?

7. What if there was this period of time every year, where water creatures could only breath air for a little while, and air creatures could only breath water for a little while? Imagine people walking around trying to look sophisticated with giant bags of water on their heads!

8. Do animals have different languages like humans?

9. If fire was a liquid what would it taste like?

10. If the air was a solid color, would every other object have to be clear?

Doodle 4: Ghost Hunter

Another picture! This one actually turned out pretty good!

This guy seems pretty happy that he discovered the ancient castle of Haunting. Hopefully it won't take him long to realize that a curious entity has taken an interest in him.
