Night of the living dead

I was sick yesterday. I was queasy and it felt like I was on the verge of puking the entire time. Once I actually went to the bathroom to do it but it was a false alarm. The feeling lessened a little bit in the evening, at least enough to sleep…or so I thought.
I could not get to sleep for the life of me last night. I don’t normally have trouble getting shuteye. I got up and walked around the apartment in my birthday suit a few times, sat with the cat that spends half the night staring at the crack under the door waiting for a shadow to go by. I got on Elite for a few minutes, which was apparently Insomniacs Anonymous Central, then back to bed…nothing.
I ended up lying in bed listening to The Best of Ambient Lounge on my Ipod…an excellent choice. Listening to music this way was a different experience for me. Normally I use music either as Muzak-esque background filler or to put me in a certain mood to do something. I use rap or metal to get ready for the gym; Pop or R&B when I’m driving and more mellow stuff at night. In any case its really the beat that I key into. Last night I actually got into the lyrics more, at least to the extent that I could as it was a European album so some of the lyrics were not English. It felt as if I was just listening to an audio book or something. Interesting how different the experience was.
In any case that didn’t put me to sleep but it did allow me to achieve a vegetative state sufficient to get some semblance of rest. I began to wonder whats become of those weird goth/gay/punk friends I had from my countless nights at Club Rio and Backstreet in Atlanta.
I finally did get to sleep around 5 AM which gave me an hour of peace before the dog jumped on the bed for his morning pet ritual at 6 AM, followed by the alarm at 6:15.
This can’t be good….

“In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American..There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
Theodore Roosevelt 1907
Pure genius. People in this country are too concerned about being politically correct to tell anyone how they really feel. All those supressed feelings are eventually going to boil over and there’s going to be a seismic implosion of some sort. The other day I heard someone say “everyone has a right to be here”. NO, THEY DON’T. Too many people having a sense of entitlement to something they haven’t earned, worked for or deserved is what’s running this country into the ground.
Hello world!

Welcome to my new digs! Strap yourselves in. Make sure your seats and tray tables are in their fully upright and locked positions. You might be in for a bumpy ride until I get everything migrated over from the old site.
Once we land there will be plenty of beer in the frig and buffalo wings (even baked ones for you dieters) on the table in front of my imaginary 52″ Plasma television. In case you’re wondering WTF dubbayoo means, well there’s no rocket science or interesting story behind it. My last initial is W….as in dubbayoo. Get it? Oh neverfuckingmind!
