Crazy But Able

Not much going on in California right now. Except the recall thing. What a bore. I sure hope we vote on it in October instead of March-can’t get that illegal immigrant driver’s license law repealed fast enough. I think it’s totally against logic. Grey Davis said that if someone works and pays taxes here they should have a DL. Pays taxes? They’re illegal immigrants they don’t pay taxes. It reminds me of a bumper sticker I saw once that said, “Cats are people too.” Last time I checked cats are cats, people are people. Right? Things used to be so simple…I mean don’t get me wrong I like cats. I’m not a secret cat hater. I just don’t think they’re people. My friend has a boyfriend and the boyfriend has a cat. He got it from a friend when it was a kitten and I guess when they’re that small you can’t tell if it’s a boy or girl kitty. They just — develop — stuff when they get bigger. Well they named it cat ion and assumed it was a girl. Well, a couple months later we figured out it was a boy and my friend said that explained some things. I’m not sure where that was going after all.

Anyway, when I moved to California I said to myself, “Who do I know in San Diego?” I remembered a really good friend I had in high school that ended up moving back to SanD and I figured I’d look her up. So I found her on the Internet and got her phone number but I couldn’t decide if I should call because of any number of odd but disturbing possibilities. For instance, what if her boyfriend is a drug dealer? What if she does drugs? What if she belongs to some weird subculture or cult and she tries to enlist me? The girls I work with said I was being, “skeptical” and “overreacting.” And I was afraid I was being negative. So after a week I called her. She’s a small town girl in a big city just like me and she has two kids and a bun in the oven. The call went well but we didn’t make plans to meet and now I’m wondering what the point was. Like, why was I so compelled to call and do nothing about it? Dumb. What was I really after if I didn’t want to meet and be friends again? So now there’s the weirdness.

I saw a movie called Adaption this weekend. I think the moral of the story was that no matter what don’t do drugs. Even if it seems OK. Like if someone says, “Don’t worry it’s all natural” don’t go for it. I’m sure they were trying to sneak in some other “messages” but they way one character got messed up on drugs kinda made the message about “seize the day” seem puny.
