I like the expression "Gads!" .... I don't know why. Actually, I do know why. Nobody uses it anymore. Did they anybody ever use it? Who cares!?!? I suggest that you, my dear reader, start. I think it makes one feel better when he/she uses it. I feel better. So, when something bad happens say, "GADS!!!" Try it right now. Go ahead. Try it! .... .... .... See! Doesn't it make you feel better. "GADS!!!" .... "Gads!" ..... "Gads! It's damn cold outside!!!" And, it is too. Yesterday when I woke up, I went to the old balcony to over look the Motel 6 sign. Every once in awhile I like to check to make sure that it still exists. I've grown accustomed to it. It is so prevalent an object in my view. It is rather like looking at the Grand Canyon... GADS!!! What the hell am I saying! It's a damn sign. Anyway, I go to the balcony and notice how nice it is. It's like early Fall, but the trees have no leafs and the grass is dead! The air is slightly blowing a nice 56 degree blast in my direction. I took a breathe in... I took a breathe out. It was nice. I almost decided to take a walk. It was that nice to actually tempt me to get my fat ass out of the apartment. Then, there was some thunder. The southwestern sky looked dark. "GADS!!!" I thought, "the southern sky looks dark!" Needless to say, I didn't go out. I sat at my computer, I turned on said computer. I looked at the screen of computer. Then I searched the net. Then, it started to rain outside. And, it rained... and rained and rained... and rained... And, then I said, "GADS!!! Look at that rain!" I looked at that rain, because I told myself to do so. Sometimes I do what I tell myself. Most of the time I don't. Really, what the hell do I know? So, I look at the rain and then say to myself, "I reckon I made the right decision to stay on my fat ass inside! Look at that rain coming down." (I like the expression "reckon" -- like "Gads!", I think we should use "reckon" more often too. Sure, it sounds ignorant, but no more ignorant then saying "Gads!" or any other stupid expression that makes absolutely no sense... Like, for example, "Peace out!" ... Shouldn't it be "Peace on!"? Don't we want peace? Or how about "Word!" What the fuck does that mean??? "Word!" .... "Word!" ... Shit... Gads, that one is dumb, I reckon). Now, what I didn't know, because what can I know from sitting at my computer watching the rain, that the instant it started pouring, the temperature dropped forty thousand degrees and froze everything instantly (I exaggerate, but my car windows were frozen shut this morning. That I blame on the rain and cold that it brought. Fuck you, cold front! I hate when I can't open my car windows. Little known factoid. I am claustrophobic and sitting in my car really gets to me. I open the car window a crack just for comfort. And, I couldn't this morning. Gads!). So, it became cold and windy. It was windy... very windy... it was whistle making because I didn't close the balcony door properly windy. WOOOOOO .... WOOOOOOO... It was then I realized it got cold. I did what every smart person who prefers warmth does in a situation like that. I went outside. Yup! I went outside because I didn't listen to that voice that told me not too, that it sounded cold outside, and that I should just lay on the couch under a blanket and watch movies (which I eventually did). No, I went outside to investigate and light a cigarette so I could come inside and say, "GADS!!! IT'S DAMN COLD OUT!!!" I stood in the rain, the cold wind, and lit a smoke, because I reckon I am dumb that way. And, I did that five more times (I do this because I get bored. I say, "Well, I just finished this cracker. What should I do? I know! SMOKE!" Or, "I just finished this television program... Now what? I could read... I could get a drink. I could make a phone call... All good options... Nope, smoke!"... I am stupid, not to forget to mention that I talk to myself to much. I need a life.. .or maybe somebody beside myself to talk too). It remained cold and wet pretty much the whole day. On my final smoke of the day, I almost slipped on the frozen rain on my balcony thus putting a nice capper on what really was a very uneventful day. And, as I continue wasting your time with this not so wonderful blog, it is still cold outside. So, I guess that means only one thing. SMOKE!!! ... and I know what you are thinking, "GADS!!! I reckon that Joe guy just never learns!" Later!
