If You Didn’t Already Know That I’m Weird

Saturday, September 30th, 2006

I had a heck of a time trying to post this as there were problems with the site, and it took me days, but it looks like it will work now (part of it may have been somewhat my fault, but not really).

Okay, I know these pictures don’t seem to have much to do with traveling, but in a way they do. It was during Songkran in Thailand, and I wanted to stay dry (after having been soaked earlier), so while sitting in my room bored, I took these pictures. In a previous post, after showing one of the photos, I did a survey asking if you would like to see the series. The results were in favor of posting the series. So if you didn’t want to see them, but didn’t vote, you should have voted, and you must look at them. If you voted no, you can choose to look or not. If you voted yes, then here they are, enjoy. If you just randomly clicked on this post, and you don’t know me, welcome to my insanity.

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses? You been out ridin' fences for so long now . . .

 . . . Oh, you're a hard one, I know that you got your reasons. These things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow . . .

 . . . Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy, she'll beat you if she's able . . .

 . . . You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet . . .

. . . Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table, but you only want the ones you can't get . . .

. . . Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger. Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home . . .

 . . . And freedom, oh freedom, well, that's just some people talkin' . . .

. . . Your prison is walkin' through this world all alone . . .

. . . Don't your feet get cold in the winter time? The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine . . .

. . . It's hard to tell the night time from the day . . .

. . . You're losin' all your highs and lows . . .

. . . Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes away? . . .

. . . Desperado, why don't you come to your senses? . . .

. . . Come down from your fences, open the gate . . .

. . . It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you . . .

 . . . You better let somebody love you. Let somebody love you. You better let somebody love you, before it's too late.

Well, that’s it.

You might have noticed that my last post, (Legally) Qualified, is gone. That’s because the site lost all posts from Aug 17 to some date (unrelated to the problem of trying to post this), so I didn’t delete it for some reason. They suggested ways to get our posts back, but none seemed to work for me. I have no back ups of any of the posts I’ve written, so I guess I’m lucky I only lost one post. I wonder if any of you have saved some of my posts? Maybe it would be a good idea for me to have back ups, for the inevitable big crash.

Anyhow, if you didn’t already know it, now you all know that I’m weird.

P.S. I still have no idea what the hell I’m doing with the rest of my life.
