Hey douche bartender from last night... you really think you are important enough to throw a paper airplane at? Yeah it's bad grammar but shut the fuck up. So, heaven forbid that a small airplane gets thrown, and taps you on your shoulder. you think it was about you? get over yourself. and then, to come over and complain instead of just laughing it off, and then to ask what we would do if you threw a bottle at our heads, you think that's funny? i should have told you that if you did that, i would jump over the counter faster than you knew, and make you regret even walking over to us. hopefully you'll get the sand out of your vagina for tonights crowd. douche.

First off, with my whole heart I mean this sincerely... FUCK YOU!

So i have a running injury which has bugged me for quite some time. i finally decided to get an mri and xrays from NC Ortho. don't ask what it cost. a few weeks later I was called to set up an appointment. Appointment was made for over a month later. a week before the appointment, they called and cancelled. I asked them if I could just have the doctor, Dr. P, call me and let me know the results. Save both of us some time. i was told that the doctor wanted me to come in so we could discuss a treatment plan (and collect 65 more dollars). I couldn't make an appointment just then, so called back a few weeks later, and rescheduled for the 27th of this month. Today, at 4:30ish, they call again to cancel. Sons of Bitches! I let them have it. I told them that this was the second time they had cancelled on me, and I didn't work that way. They apologized and asked if i would like to reschedule, which i couldn't do at the time. I told them that i have schedules to keep and i want them to have the doctor call me to reschedule. we'll see what happens. Mr. BadMood came out swinging today. Grrrrr.

So, if I pay rent for something, say a parking lot, that is posted no parking unless it is for my business, not only at the entrance but at the three spots designated for my place of business... don't give me a fucking attitude when i kindly remind you that you are in my spots. not only that, but if you decide to park in say, 2 of my three spots, you'd better as hell not give me any lip. i am so close to the edge of smashing in your effing windows because you think i am in the wrong. i'll tell you right now assholes, i'm saving you a 150 dollar tow fee fucktard. at least have the honor to apologize, and don't do it again. and by the way... getting into a "whatever" pissing match in front of your kid is not the way to win father of the year dick!

Mr. Badmood is dead... For today

2010-11-17T17:21:00.003-05:00

We own a shop, what kind doesn't matter. I am sitting in the pizza place next door which is owned by 2 sons and their mom. They have been here for 30 years so must be doing something right. They have known our daughter since she was three years old, and consider her family. Nonna, our daughter's Italian grandmother is currently holding, playing, singing, laughing with our daughter. Our daughter is so loved by this new family I cannot be mr. badmood today.

Thank you Ross Simon

2010-09-19T10:53:00.002-05:00

I am so very thankful that you are willing to let me buy some diamond studs for only $5,000 dollars while saving me $17,000. I am so thankful for you.

2010-09-16T09:37:00.003-05:00

Starting this one with a GRRRRRRRRR! Previous post... Selling house. Now that you're all caught up... The other day our dishwasher stopped working. This dishwasher has been on the outs for a while, but still works thanks to my amazing skillz. so My lovely informs me of the no workie, and remembering the wise words of my father who said "check the small things," i do just that. fuse box, A-OK. Turn the knob a few times on the machine (has worked in the past), no fixy. I guess it's time for a new machine. It couldn't break after we sold the house? DAMN!

Off to Lowes I go, and purchase a lovely, plain white boring $300 dishwasher. I remove the old, install the new, flip the breaker back on, and check for leaks, and Tada...... Nothing! No lights, no swishing, NOTHING! I then notice the light switch which hides behind the coffee maker which the cleaners must have turned off on sunday.

Son of a Dishwasher!

We're keeping it.

GRRRRRRRRR.

The Garden? Really

2010-09-14T05:23:00.003-05:00

I'm trying to sell my house. This market is a bear, and I understand this, so I have been doing what I'm told. i don't like doing what I'm told. I reduced the "clutter." good boy. I had the whole house repainted. good boy. I had a new kitchen floor put in, repaired a big window that something flew into, refinished the living room floor, and had new carpet installed. good good boy.

We've had a few showings... too expensive, to inexpensive, too far out... you know same shit. BUT... when I was told the house didn't show well because it was too cluttered, I let my realtor have it. THIS HOUSE IS NOT CLUTTERED! My shed is full of all the crap. My attic is full of all the crap, and a storage unit is full of all the crap. MY HOUSE IS NOT FULL OF ALL THE CRAP! We are crapless. Then, I get told that someone loved the house, but they thought the garden needed to be thinned out a little. Really? the garden? You're buying the fucking house. Pave the garden for all I care at this point. I tore the hell out of that garden last night much to my wife's dismay. It will be made plastic, beautiful, colorful just for the likes of others. I hate this game. We've lowered our price. GRRRRRRRRR.

Silly Bandz

2010-05-27T10:13:00.002-05:00

ok, i work in a school, i know all about these bands. goods, bads of course. when i was a kid, we had those black jelly bracelets i think they were called. pull up any picture of madonna from the 80s and you'll see what i mean. so all of a sudden, there are these stupid stories about how schools are banning them from the building. the following is one teacher's response...

"It's a distraction," says Jill Wolborsky, a fourth-grade teacher at my son's school, who banned them from her classroom before the principal implemented a schoolwide ban. One student stole some confiscated Bandz from her desk, choosing them over the cash in her drawer.

Students fiddle with them during class and arrange swaps - trading, say, a bracelet with a mermaid for one with a dragon - when they should be concentrating on schoolwork, teachers say. Sometimes a trade goes bad - kids get buyer's remorse too - and hard feelings, maybe even scuffles, ensue."

jill, where were you when the kid went into your desk? watch closer next time. if you leave the room, lock your door. problem solved.

ok. fiddling with them in class? as long as it's not distracting, let them fiddle. i personally am a fidget, and need something to occupy me so i can focus on things. i am currently fiddling with my bandz, and still manage to type.

swaps happen all the time. been swapping baseball cards for 30 years. have i made some bad deals, of course. have there been arguments, of course. but what did i do? i took a can of suck it up, took responsibility for my actions, and got on with my life.

boo hoo. feelings will always get hurt. and as for buyers remorse, don't even get me started on my 2003 nissan xterra 4 cylinder. ouchie.

bottom line, kids will be kids. you have 10 days left of school. get moving.

I don't know what it is about...

when i pull into a gas station to fill up my car, all i want is the gas. i don't want a carwash, i don't want to put in my zipcode, i don't want to choose credit or debit. i slide my card, i pump my gas, i want to go. i will not go to your station anymore. eff you.

Are you kidding me???

2009-09-14T12:34:00.003-05:00

Ok, this whole Mr. BadMood blog is a pointless waste of time, where i occasionally rant about things on my mind. i will try so very hard to be calm about this next post though it pisses me off to no end.

short story...

a man named chris died in raleigh. to make it worse, he died on the day he was supposed to get married to karen. now anyone who knows me i hope, knows that i find absolutely nothing funny about this situation. it is a tragic event that will haunt his family, friends, and fiancee forever.

the story goes on to tell what a devoted christian he was. i am not huge on religion, and battle my own demons with my faith, and confess that the ultra religious more than often get on my nerves. my issue, but i will never ever tell a person how to worship. that said....

the story interviews one of chris' groomsmen, a man named andrew bowman, and here's where i get angry.

Andrew Bowman, Groomsman had this to say... this story is so unbelievable that the fact that it actually happened is why i'm happy for chris. i'm happy there are a lot of people who are going to hear about this, and a lot of people are going to see that Karen is going to flourish from this situation. a lot of people gonna see that we're going to help out chris's family, we're going to help out karen's family.

the fact that it actually happened is why i'm happy for chris??? are you effing kidding me? in no way shape or form should you be happy for chris! period. he died on his wedding day you schmuck. you should feel saddened. you should feel confused, but happy? you are a moron.

what exactly are alot of people going to hear about? that a man died on his wedding day. that's what people will hear. maybe if you sent a message out about the consequences of running a red light, more people would get the message.

i hope to whoever that karen flourishes. but not today. today she mourns for the one she loved. but you go ahead and help. you run home make a tuna casserole for chris and karen's families. i'm sure that will make it all better. in the end though, you will still be an idiot.

"the fact that it actually happened is why i'm happy for chris." god you piss me off andrew bowman.

2009-06-03T11:26:00.003-05:00

so, in the past month let's say, i have found out that 2 of my friends are getting divorced from their husbands, two others are in marriages that have major issues, and an old friend of mine is also seeking divorce. You know, i could just focus on the good relationships around me, but i feel like i've been in a tornado of bad news lately.

tough decisions...

2009-05-08T12:46:00.002-05:00

so you know when you're young, and invincible, and willing to try anything whether you fail or not? well i'm not young anymore, and it bothers me. why the hell can't i just make a decision, try a risky thing, do something in addition to, or in replacement of the thing i do. disclaimer... i love my job, and most of the people i work with.

that said... i am at the will and mercy of my state, my county, my employer. 40 hours a week, i get paid. 60 hours a week i get paid the same. i can't control the scale. thought here is safety in that, to some degree, but there is something to be said for putting in more of my blood sweat and tears to make an honest buck. when do i take control? 17 years ago when my career was just getting off the ground, or 20 years after the fact? locked in a career that is good and noble, and worthwhile, but with no financial recognition for time spent.

i chose my career, i have no issues with that. as i said, i do love it. when though will i grow a pair and make something happen for me? when will i get to say that this is mine? i built it, i maintained it, i earned it?

Grrr.

To Beet or not to Beet... Renamed: Pee the Rainbow on 3/15/10

2009-01-27T11:49:00.003-05:00

So last month I was in Dallas visiting the new future inlaws. We went to a great grocery, where I purchases this shockingly pink greek yogurt and beets. It had to be one of the most delicious things i have eaten. Since then, i have made it myself once and had it made for me once. we're talking alot of beets. do you know what happens when you mix yellow pee with pink beets? yep, i'm peeing an orangish pinkish. it's kind of like i'm peeing a rainbow. i've had yellow, orange (dehydrated), and now pink. i'm wondering if i eat only green things if it will have some effect. blue things? i sense and experiment.

New Password...

2009-01-26T12:44:00.002-05:00

Ok, I know it's been a while, but had to share. I'm a Network Admin in a School, and was approached by a staff member who's password had expired. i asked her to write her name and a new password on a slip, and place it on my desk in my office.

later in the day, i went to my office only to find a piece of paper with her name, and the words "new password!"

i laughed.

2007-01-18T21:47:00.000-05:00

i'm talking with a friend who is in a bad relationship in my opinion. this guy she's with won't commit, shows her no emotion whatsoever. so, guys... if your woman came out of the bedroom wearing something sexy, would you, A) continue to watch tv, or B) attack? he watched tv. she then went back in the bedroom three other times and put on different outfits. still he sat. she asked him which one he would like her to wear, he said that he didn't care. they didn't have sex. she has been with this guy for 3 years, and he has, apparently, no interest in her physically. they have such little sex that she wonders if her vagina will implode and start sucking the entire universe into her womb. that last sentence is the only reason i posted this blog. feel free to comment.

i need a vacation...

2006-11-15T18:32:00.000-05:00

so first off, i realized recently that my last few blogs had a one word title. that kind of bugs me cause you all know i don't like to get pigeon holed into anything. that aside, i've bumped it up to 3 words this time.

so i just found out that billy idol, yes, rebel yell, white wedding, rock the cradle of love billy idol has a christmas album out; billy idol's christmas 2006. i was unfortunate enough to see the white christmas video, and my thoughts of that sneering, rocker, that guy who made it ok to be punk, to be angry, to vent has died. now several years ago, david bowie and bing crosby did the little drummer boy. this was ok to me as bowie wasn't a rocker like idol.

so i've recently said out loud that i am a bad friend. i tend to put off the important things, like friendships for other things. many of them work related, lazy related, poor time management related. pick one, make up another, it all seems to fit. my best friend has a daughter. i have seen her maybe 6 times in the past 2 years. i have seen him few times more than that. i have no excuses. his life is more complicated. i get that. his time is more consumed with family, i get that too, thus, it should be my role as a friend, my role as someone who has a heart to make the time to go to them. to make their lives easier so they don't have to pack up and head my way. i am one, easy enough to get in the car, or get on the bike, and go there. i promise i will make ammends, as i feel as if i have let him, his wife, their child, and one on the way down. please forgive.

along those same lines, there used to be a group. one that hung out on ocassion, one that met at the wine bar, restaurant, whatever, and just hung. i don't think i have seen or heard from any of them in months. one lives half a mile away. now granted, i know one lives far away, one i only really saw during poker, and a party a year, and others are married with kids, or kids on the way (it bothers me that i don't even know if one who was pregnant last i heard had had her baby yet). so things do get in the way. it makes me sad. i want to reach out, yet...

there is another group of friends, my hashers, who i adore, and see sometimes, but not on a regular basis. there was a time when i found hashes 3-4 times a week, but like i've said, life gets in the way. i want to go places, i want to see people, i just don't. i've gotten a few offers to ride my motorcycle to some of their meighborhoods, and i might, i just might. i did have a brilliant weekend a few ago at the ho-down. always good to go camping, and see people.

oh, ok democrats, you've been given the holy grail... DON'T FUCK IT UP!

anyone else distraught over the brittany/k-fed divorce? i thought they would be happy forever... :-) Bwaaaa haaaaa haaaaa haaaaa haaaaa

fall...

2006-11-10T15:40:00.000-05:00

i simply love riding the motorcycle on a warm fall day. i left the house to get something to eat, and ended up at a diner i go to often. i was unable to decide on a place, wanting to maybe try something new, but liking the familiar. i sat where i normally sit, and ordered what i usually order. boring

i then wanted to enjoy the day and ride. ride far, and explore, but again, indecisive, so ended up riding the same roads as usual. i'm bored, i'm tired, i'm in need of a change, a vacation, away.

THIS BOTTLE OF PINO GRIGIOP IS KIKKING MY ASS.

TriF*ckta / Naked Run / Ipod

2006-08-01T10:40:00.000-05:00

well, i got home from trifuckta on sunday morning, and what a time it was. i was one of the first to arrive, and immediately got yelled at as soon as i entered the campground as i did not read the sign and stop at the check in hut for my car tag. I bowed my head in shame, and finally set up my tent next to shitty and scabby overlooking the chocolate milk covered river. it was balls hot! people started arriving, and it was great to see most of them... bloody mary's were made, and i was off to a great (i think) start. i always like meeting new hashers, and met quite a few. the rest of friday was full of drinking, hanging out, and eventually passing out quite early. not much sleep mind you as there was apparently a wrestling lesson going on right outside my tent. oh, did i mention the rain??? i thought a rain fly was supposed to protect me, but alas, there was a fine mist falling on me all night.

Saturday, i woke up early to partake in the 6th annual take pride in your hide 5k. it was held at the bar s ranch, http://www.bar-s-ranch.com/ which is a nudist resort. yes, i ran a 5k naked, and have the shirt (ironic) to prove it. i finished 38th out of 160, so not bad, but my two black eyes are killing me!

back to the campground where we were getting ready for trash floats. what a hell of a good time. i wasn't going to go, but what the hell. trashy saved my life twice as we were both off our tubes, and as you may or may not know, i can't swim. most of the time, the river was shallow enough for me to walk, but there were a few places. besides, it's hard to swim while holding 2 beers. there was much frolicking to be had, and many sunburns gotten. have you ever seen turtles sunning themselves on a log? well picture trashy and me. we really bonded that day. Saturday night dinner was great, tippy cup, beer pong, and an apparent cabaret show on the tables. horray for boobies!

Happy birthday scabby, glad i could shoot bottle rockets out of my butt for you.

5 gallons of blue were consumed in maybe an hour and a half. i knew you guys could do it. Buck and company, great job!

ok, ipod. my pod died after 13 months, and i went to apple to see what they could do. they said that if it couldn't be repaired, i could recycle it and get 10% off my next purchase. i told them that was unacceptable as it was only 13 months old and i have a stereo that's 18 years old that still works as good as the day i bought it. without too much drama, i am now the owner of a brand new FREE ipod. thanks apple.

on-out.

autism

2006-07-21T22:09:00.000-05:00

so one of the benifits of my job is that i have lots of time off. one of the drawbacks of my job is that i have lots of time off, thus time to think, ponder, waste time. so there i was at a local coffee place just having an iced americano and reading when a man sitting outside caught my eye. he was displaying autistic tendancies such as bobbing back and forth and basic disassociation with his surroundings. i was simply mystified by him. he then took out a cigarette and placed it in his mouth with his left hand, and immediately took it out again with his right. he then put it in with his right hand, and took it out with his left. this went on for several minutes with no alteration unless he missed his mouth (which he did a few times), then he would use the same hand again. he had his lighter in his right hand, and would go to light his cigarette, but wouldn't, and the hand passing would continue again. finally, he was happy with the placement of the cigarette and lit it. i will compare the way this guy smoked that cigarette with the way someone chugs a beer. he used the same hand, and same inhale and same exhale for the entire cigarette, and took that baby down to the filter in maybe a minute. he then dropped it and continued rocking. i found it fascinating.

Interview with a VAMPYRE!!!

2006-06-11T08:28:00.000-05:00

so no shit there i was at the drive through at bojangles just getting some breakfast for some of my students when all of a sudden.....

a woman from the car behind me comes to my window, and hands me a piece of paper and says... i need you to call me in half an hour. i asked her why and she paused, then said, just call me..... my mind pondered what could make her do this. was it a joke? did something on the back of my truck offend? i reasoned that she was some fundo christian, and was going to take offense to my hash fish, which is like a jesus fish, but has legs and is chugging a beer. i was ready for a sermon.

fast forward 30ish minutes.

i called, and said 'you asked me to call you?" she transfered me to the conference room where we could talk in private. i was ready for some ultra religious banter about how sacriligious my fish was. she says to me, that she would like to talk to me about my license plate which is vampyre9. she asked if i chose it, to which i said yes. she then asked me why. now, i was still thinking about her being a strong fundo, so just told her i liked the genre, and have always liked the idea of a vampyre. she then invited me to a meetup in charlotte the next night. i asked her what kind of meetup, and she told me it was for people who share the same interests in... get this.... vampyres. now i'm not saying they just talked about anne rice, but THEY REALLY THINK THEY ARE VAMPYRES!!!!! thats right my minions, i was picked up by a vampyre at the bojangles drive through! i broad daylight mind you. she then told me their website, and that their leader was lord alistair. yes, lord alistair. i checked out the page, and wooo boy, there are some interesting people. here's the addy for lord alistair... http://www.housedarkhaven.com/ here's the charlotte group.... http://www.bitemecharlotte.com/ one of my favorite quotes on this last page is in the forums section where one of the topics is "elders". the subtitle is we make dirt look young.

2006-05-08T04:55:00.000-05:00

so this weekend was relay for life, and i usually spend the entire night just walking, hanging out, and having a good time. for those of you who don't know, relay for life raises money for cancer research. so no shit, there i was parking my truck when i saw a woman walking down from the track (where about 200-300 cancer survivers were) smoking a FUCKING CIGARETTE! now, i'm no angel, and have my vices, but come on now what the hell was she thinking? so me being me, walked up to her and stated that she was on school property, and we were a smoke free campus, which is true. she was terribly apologetic, putting out the cig on the ground, and telling me she would even take the butt with her. i thanked her, and then shge asked where she could smoke. i told her off campus, then pointed out her relay for life shirt, and her hypocracy. some people really have no sense. i mean, i was drinking bourbon, and that doesn't cause cancer! kidding.

color tv?

2006-05-08T04:53:00.000-05:00

do hotels and motels really need to advertise that they have color tv on their marquis? i mean really.

MBM

so no shit there i was...

2006-04-29T21:00:00.000-05:00

i was just reminded of a time when i was in therapy after my divorce... my therapist told me to get rid of all my blue clothing. when i asked her why, she said, "Because you're blue enough already." that was my last session.

MBM

i'm not really goods at this...

2006-04-29T19:58:00.000-05:00

so once again, i've let my postings lapse... what else is new. you got a problem with it? bring it! so i got a very intresting response to my post about muhamad, "mo" to his friends. i encourage you to read it. i was going to put out a very knowledgable response to it, but decided to say the following... TROLL!!!!!!!!! get the fuck off my blog if you're not going to add anything useful. at least don't log in as annonymous you dickwad. fucking coward. so on to other things.

people... PLEASE do me a favor. DO NOT MOUNT YOUR FUCKING MAILBOXES ON 55 GALLON DRUMS, PLOWS, HUGE DRILL BITS, CINDER BLOCKS, OR ANY OTHER FUCKING THING other than a post! thank you. oh and another thing... if your mailbox looks like a big mouth bass, or wedding cake (i'm not kidding), or a watermelon slice, never ever say a word to me. just go about your business and leave me the fuck alone. i'm not even interested in your reasons. just go back to your happy la la la world. a wedding cake mailbox... are you fucking kidding me?

oh, another thing. i was up in ny recently, and my father wanted me to take home some wine and liquor from the house. he doesn't drink, but gets stuff as gifts. so we're cleaning out one of the cabinets, and i spy a lovely purple box of crown royal. i pull it out, never opened! i open the box and see that pouch. i open the pouch and check the liquor. it is beautiful, and then i check the date! get this... it was from 1969! i found another one, from 1962!!!!!!!!!!!! now liquor doesn't age in the bottle, so it's not like i was drinking some 34 year old whisky, but just to be sure, i contacted crown royal. they responded as follows....

Thank you for taking time to contact Crown Royal. 
We appreciate hearing from our consumers,
whether comments are complimentary or critical,
because your feedback is important.

Under normal storage conditions, whisky will
maintain its original quality and taste for
several years, although over a long period of
time its taste may change very slightly. 
The aging process of whisky occurs in the
barrel, before it's blended and bottled. 
In fact, Crown Royal whisky is at its
peak flavor when it's first bottled.

Once again, thank you for contacting Crown Royal.

i took it to a bar i go to, and we cracked open the 62. it tasted fucking great. then we tasted new stuff, and we all liked the 62 better. who knew.

well, i'm off. later bi-atches!

An experiment gone wrong

2006-04-10T13:45:00.000-05:00

You know, there are times i want to have some fun and nobody wants to play. 2 weeks ago, i went to new york, and posted my blog addy, and my cell phone on my back window hoping to get people to call. i was then planning on posting some of the conversations on this blog. alas, all i got were three people asking how much i was selling my truck for! what a letdown.

grrrrr.

mbm

Back in New York...

2006-03-28T11:08:00.000-05:00

Why do i do this to myself? why do i leave the calmness and serenity (i know i know) of my house. i'm sitting in a dunkin donuts on lawn guyland enjoying a cup of coffee and my book this morning, when all of a sudden, this woman goes off on the guy behind the counter because she paid for a coffee and a ham and egg croissant and didn't get the croissant. i mean, she wasn't nice one bit. i felt like telling her off, but didn't. now this poor guy behind the counter wasn't saying much at all, then suddenly lifted his hand which contained a bag which contained her fucking egg sandwich. he was getting it ready for her, as unfortunately in this world, things don't magically appear when you ask for them (i wish i had a million dollars i wish i had a million dollars). SEE! she snatches the fucking bag out of his hands, and without a thank you, storms out. now, my urge to bitch slap this woman was huge. how on earth is her day going to go if it started out like this. i hope she wasn't a teacher.

God i can't wait to get home.

Traveling Blog...

2006-03-24T19:17:00.000-05:00

So I'm headed home for a visit, and have written this site and my cell phone number on the back window of my truck. I have 10 hours, and will hopefully get some calls which in turn, I will post here. now, if you're one of the people who called, and spoke with mrbadmood, check back in about a week.

Oh, by the way... what the fuck is up with powerade offering a "low carb" version of their sports drink? as a marathoner and athlete ( i know, down down for admitting that) we need carbs. i'm sick and tired of this low carb crap. i eat and drink what i want, and i'm pretty damn thin. do some exercise people. that said, GRRRRRRR

ok, 6 days ago, a muslim man drove his suv onto the university campus i live near. he took down (though not fatally) 7 or 9 people. his reason? he wanted to "punish the government of the United States for their actions around the world," well shit asshat, you really punished us. have fun getting pounded in the ass in prison. how the fuck would you feel if someone, anyone plowed through your village in youreadickistan in the name of peace? you god damned self ritious fuckwad. your actions only anger us, and make you look worse. shit, take a gun to your head for your god first. rid this planet of your assinine views. now i'm not saying don't have your beliefs, but shit man, what the hell were you thinking? so this one's for you mr. mohammed reza tahiri-azar, you fucking stupid ass 22-year-old Iran native and unc graduate. way to make your culture proud.

this dick rented the jeep and told authorities he drove a rented Jeep Grand Cherokee because it had four-wheel drive and could "run things over and keep going," nice work pussy!

now, to the rest of you iranians/muslims/radicals, whatever and whoever you are. you want to make peace, then denounce this man's (and i use that term very loosly), and every other radical's actions. this would make me happy. i'll be waiting by the phone for your call.

damn i'm pissy today.

some parents are stupid (but not mine)

2006-03-09T09:04:00.000-05:00

so ok, i work in a school, and love it most days. i was raised well, and try to be a good person. i try not to judge, but damn if some parents in my building don't need a good ass kicking. here's the deal... if you drive a piece of crap buick with rust spots, peeling paint, and part of the roof fabric hanging down, DONT PUT FUCKING BLING SPINNERS ON YOUR RIDE! shit asshole, your kids smell like smoke every day, and i'm running out of money buying them poptarts for breakfast cause they haven't eaten yet. just because you're poor doesn't mean you have to look like trash. raise your kids right, or give them to me. they'll have a roof, some discipline, and food in their belly. for christ's sake, don't you know they will follow in your backwards ass redneck footsteps?

sometimes i just want to kick the shit out of some people!

How must it feel to know you're going to die young?

2006-03-09T08:57:00.000-05:00

I go to this bank near my house every once in a while to deposit my huge check. there is a woman, a teller there who must be close to 300 pounds. she is obviously unhealthy, and it shows. so i'm there the other week, and she had the task of getting the money out of the atm, which is outside. the walk to the machine seemed to pain her, and as she was wearing a mu mu dress i was able to see her lower legs. i was very saddened, and distressed by the sight. she was red and raw from calf to ankle. eczema? diabetes? blood clots? i have no idea, but every step she took she winced in pain. once back behind the counter, she couldn't sit down as her chair was too high so she could see over the counter. she had to stand, which obviously wasn't easy for her. what i wonder is if she knows she will not live a long and happy life. if she understands that whatever medical and weight issues she's dealing with are going to cut her life short.

mbm

there is...

2006-02-10T11:38:00.000-05:00

absolutely no reason to have the front half of a car in your yard! everyone knows you're never going to do anything with it, and it will end up a rusted chunk of low class white trash redneck shit.

common courtesies

2006-02-09T20:22:00.000-05:00

you know, i'm not saying i'm perfect by any stretch of the imagination. i'm not even saying i'm good all the times, but damn if i don't think that i'm kind and considerate. now there are times when i hurt people. this is life, this happens. it is never my intention, but sometimes life gets in the way (at least that's the excuse i'll use for now). i love my friends, like most of the women i've dated, and try my hardest to remember important events, but you know what... i fuck up sometimes. to balance that, i try to make people comfortable around me. i do not think i am a larger than life presence, but at least i turn my damned phone off when i'm at a movie. i mean, how fucking hard is it to push a little button for 3 measley seconds. do people realize how much the rest of the audience would appreciate it? now i know that people driving home won't be saying, "gee that was sure nice that no phones rang during the movie," but maybe after a while, it would get noticed. the same goes for restaurants, the mall, the airport etc... YOU ARE NOT SO IMPORTANT THAT EVERYONE HAS TO HEAR YOUR NEW BLACK EYED PEAS RINGTONE! TURN THE SHIT OFF.

grrrrr.

Nothing...

2006-01-27T15:33:00.000-05:00

daring in my mind, yet afraid to do anything about it. i envy those who can solve their problems. those who throw caution to the wind and just go for it. those who live for now and know that it may not work out. i need something to open me up and extract that drive. anyone? bueler, bueler?

mr. braille's birthday

2006-01-04T12:08:00.000-05:00

so today i lauch google, the omnipotent web browser, and am greeted with the top banner written in braille. i love when they do this. i quickly picked up my phone, (650) 253-0000 and after getting their computer voice, decided to contact someone by last name. now, not knowing anyone there, i started with smith... no one there named smith. then i tried jones, you guessed it, no jones. finally i figured there had to be a rosen-something there, so i typed rosen. i had three choices and chose jesse rosenstock. unfortunately, he wasn't there so i left him a message saying that i was a blind man, and was told google was written in braille today. i then asked him why i couldn't feel it. i'm awaiting a call back.

eyebrows

2005-11-03T11:56:00.000-05:00

so what the fuck is the deal-e-yo with women shaving off their eyebrows, or plucking them so damn thin just to paint them back on.

my parents built a house in west palm beach, and i helped move them in 2 weeks ago. first, besides getting hit by a hurricane, i felt like i was in the world's largest seinfield episode.

there was this one woman, a neighbor who had painted on eyebrows. it was all i could do to not lick my thumb, and rub them off like a mother would do to here dirty child.

i'll have my chance again i'm sure.

anyone want to visit me in my new vacation spot?

mbm

are you kidding?

2005-08-10T07:48:00.000-05:00

so about a year ago i posted a soloflex for sale on a local newsgroup. i got a few nibbles, but then decided to give it away to a friend i work with. so, this morning, i get an e-mail from some shmuck asking if i still have it. what a dolt.

i have this "friend"...

2005-06-23T11:29:00.000-05:00

so a "friend" told me the other day that he was um... how should i say this delicately for my thousands of readers... involved in the budoir with this woman one morning, just trying to get the day started right, when the door opened up, and her child of 9 years old appeared. after much scrambling and retreival of sheets and bedcovers, said child closed the door, went back in said child's room and turned on spongebob leaving my "friend," and his partner to figure out what to do. my "friends" response to any future questions asked was "go ask your mother." what a way to start the day... i mean for my friend that is.

planning a trip...

2005-06-19T10:56:00.000-05:00

so i'm in the process of planning a cross country trip. i'm going to be on my motorcycle, and i am both excited and nervous about it. i know adventure is supposed to be... well, adventure. i wish i had more than a month to see this country, but i will cram as much into the month as possible. keep checking for updates.

eggs part dos

2005-06-12T22:07:00.000-05:00

so a friend of mine at the bar told me he had a friend who had a sister who was blind for a month when her sister microwaved an egg, and right before it exploded caller her sister over to see it, and it exploded and she was blind for a month.

true story.

revolution???

2005-06-11T20:15:00.000-05:00

so this weekend i went to revolution. i like this hash. i like the people, the location, the low key atmosphere, so why you might ask yourself is mr. bad mood writing on his blog on sturday night? well, without getting into specifics, i left this morning due to a revolution of my own. i have been asking people to not behave around me in a certain way. a way that i have grown to dislike, one i probably should have disliked earlier. it was nothing bad and was never meant maliciously, it was just something people do to one another. the difference this morning was, though i had mentioned my need for a stop to it, it continued. i decided to pack up and leave, so i did. i am glad i did so.

on a less dramatic note, on the way home, i stopped at a cracker barrel for the first time ever. the funny thing about it is when i went to get a table, the hostess asked me if i wanted smoking, non smoking, or first available. looking into the restaurant, and seeing only one other person at a table, i felt the need to say first available just to see how long she would make me wait for a table. ok, so it might not be funny to you, but fuck, it's not about you.

MBM

Damn it...

2005-06-05T22:06:00.000-05:00

i apparently should have gone to the TRASH tonight. little skirts, wet t-shirts, drama. glad i was working instead.

a poem i wrote a while back...

2005-05-31T18:31:00.000-05:00

Come to me

Temptress of all that is pure
Envelop me in your warmth
Flood me with your secrets
Draw from me my fears
Taste the pain from my lips
Color me crimson graphite
Cloud my memories of all that is false
Give to me trust and comfort and safety
Elixer of souls - devour me

eggs

2005-05-30T13:58:00.000-05:00

eggs take 45 seconds before they explode in the microwave.

lazy

2005-05-30T11:09:00.000-05:00

although i have been away all weekends the past month, and the end of the school year was stressful, and i'm still at the bar, i consider myself lazy. i base this on the fact that i am perfectly comfortable lying in bed watching the complete 4th season of buffy on dvd. a little over a year ago, i completed my fourth marathon. it was my worst time, but my best marathon as it was new york, my home town. the energy and cultures there, along with my parents at mile 16 made all the pain of my pulled groin, and 6 weeks of training worth it. so, back to laziness... i have pretty much been sedentary since then. i'll hash, but not really run much. i drive by my gym four times a week whether i need it or not, and i pretty much eat what i want. i am however disappointed in my physical fitness, yet can't seem to get out of this funk i am in. maybe i need to run with people on a regular basis. maybe i need to eat better, work less, travel more. i do not know what it will take, but i did run 2 miles today. that's a start right???

wissshhh

2005-05-28T08:04:00.000-05:00

decided to not be one of the cool kids this weekend at wissshhh. i've been traveling too much recently, and need to take care of my house, my gardens, myself. i'll still do all of that in a bad mood. rrrrrrrrrrr.

School's out for summer!

2005-05-28T07:43:00.000-05:00

i just finished my fifteenth... FIFTEENTH year of teaching. this year was a bit different as i left my tech position to teach a fifth grade class for two months. the teacher in that class was forced out by the administration and the class was out of control. i took over, and am happy to say they all passed.

my sister had a baby last weekend. she had been trying and trying, and after two miscarriages, she was sucessful. i'll head out to colorado to see them this summer.

Hashed in charlotte this past weekend for their 600th. it was a very fun time, i served the blue, and surprisingly got very few glares and snarles the next day. maybe people are learning to not down mug after mug of it. i must improve the formula.....

well, i'm turning 37 in a week or so. and thinking back, i have nothing to do. i'll be working at the bar, doing nothing special getting older. life sometimes is unfair.

enough for now. i'll try to be more current in the future.

Saturday...

2005-04-30T17:24:00.000-05:00

a day off, i slept for 12 hours last night, and woke feeling pretty good. mowed the lawn, took a walk, smoked a cigar. relationship issues myuddle my head.

God Damned Farking Asshats

2005-04-14T23:12:00.000-05:00

ok asshats, here's the deal... if i'm heading down the road, and you turn out of your pricey neighborhhod, and i have to slow down to a crawl to avoid hitting you, YOU FUCKED UP! don't give me the finger for getting too close. i should hit you on purpose and take the insurance hike just to ruin your day.

another thing... just because it's raining out, doesn't give you the right to slow down to a snail's pace. if you do, then get the fuck out of my way.

and yet another thing... get the fuck out of the left lane. if you are going the speed limit, and i come cruising up behind you, don't think for a second that you will be teaching me a lesson by slowing down, and not letting me by.

god some of you really piss me off.

I earned my name today.

Is it Friday Yet?

2005-04-12T17:34:00.000-05:00

Man, it's only tuesday and i'm farking exhausted. just want to kick back drink something brown and fizzy, or something red and mellow. i will not however drink something BLUE. Never do what you deal. i remember that sometimes, but others, i have a tongue that matches all the others. i love me that night, and hate me the next morning.

a day in the life...

2005-04-10T15:39:00.000-05:00

you know, my life all things considered is pretty good. i have a good job (s), i have people that i enjoy, i have a beautiful home, i have a girl. so what's not there? i think it has something to do with my lack of motivation, my fear of taking risks, though i want so desparately to take them.

i want property. i think i can afford it, i want to travel, i want more. my dilemma is how to get it.

hmmm.

almost a fucking year...

2005-03-21T11:11:00.000-05:00

ok. this thing is like a journal, and i was never good at doing a journal. so, i'm going to go do something else now.

On-Out

Mr. Bad Mood Says...

2004-06-08T09:55:00.000-05:00

so i just turned 36. shit i'm getting closer and closer to death. i did have one kick ass of a party though. so here i am, a day off from work, and i'm bored. sure there are things i could be doing, but it's hot out, the cleaners are here (yes i have cleaners), and i'm indecisive about what i want to do, or where i want to go. i have options. gym, discgolf, movie, the list is limitless, yet i find myself lethargic and unwilling to move my ass. i still have some things to clean up, but will take care of all that later. what to bitch about...

let's see.

next day. did none of the above. went for a run though. i have run four marathons, and took some time off to heal. i begin again to train for new york (if i get in again). i really don't enjoy running to be honest, but the feeling after, the feeling of accomplishment is something else.

i'm starting at the beginning again though, and that's kind of a blow to my self esteem. going from marathons to three miles! shit that sucks.

we can rebuild him.

on-out
