Well, It's been a while. My computer did a bad. I took it to Best Buy, because I bought it there and my warranties are with them. So Geek Squad looked at it. I hate Geek Squad. They have bad service and they know very little about the actual computers. Well, they know more than the average American. Well, the people in the front are stupid as fuck. People in the back aren't that bad. So they had no idea what was wrong with my laptop, even I knew the exact thing that was causing damned thing to freeze after a minute of use. So they sent the damned thing to California or something. Maybe let it hangout on the beach. No, they got a brand new laptop for me. Same model, same OS, boring. Well, it was for free. I had to wait a week or two. I lost track of time. Anyways, I had to change the OS back to Windows 7, because it's better than 8. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
My brother was in town last week. He came in on a Sunday afternoon and left a week later, which was two or three days ago. I wouldn't know. Days tend to blend together when you're an insomniac. More so than a normal person. To me, "It's not tomorrow til I wake up" as the person that had hung themselves had a said a many of times. Their funeral was fun. I got emotional, so did everyone else. Maybe I'll post my speech. I don't know yet. I had to write it on napkins, I came so ill prepared. I was always like that, doing things at the last minute. They did too. "Makes life more fun", we would say.
I got a hair cut right before I picked up my brother. I actually drove. I hate driving. I had to use my car. I only drive it five to twenty times a year. It's a 91 or 92 Toyota something or other. Basically, it's almost as old as me, yet it still running better than me. What? Don't ask me. It doesn't have AC, it just blows air. There is no radio and the windows are operated by a crank. I love the old thing. It was my great aunt's. She was a recluse, but gave me that car in her will. I didn't know she met me before. Anyways, my brother loved my hair cut and hates my car. He had to drive it. He doesn't trust my driving skills, which is a valid concern. I almost killed the both of us when I first got my license. We didn't do much the week he was here, but I had fun. My girlfriend met him. My brother hit on her, and she slapped him. I picked the right woman. She leaves for school sometime in August. Not sure if we're gonna break up or not. I don't really care either way. I'm a free spirit that goes with the flow.
If I wrote to you in a pm or a comment and I had mistakes in it, I am sorry. I was using my phone. I don't like using it for this site for many reasons. I don't feel like I need to explain myself. Also, I probably haven't commented as much as I should of had. Yeah. So that'll hopefully change.
I love the 4 letter challenge thread. I set little goals for myself. Like, "I'll try to use the word vile" or something. I did manage to use that word, by the way. I feel accomplished. Very accomplished.
I may be going to sleep soon. I don't know.
PS from Future Spitz, I did fall asleep right after posting this.

I was so glad to see a new write! On word challenges; I love words. I’ve been in love with the dictionary forever it seems. I’ll open it up and let my eyes fall on what is there in front of me to which I am not familiar. I’ll go over the definition, and then I will purposely use the word in a sentence in conversation a few times – which I’m sure sounds awkward to whomever I’m speaking, but I do it anyway, and then I forget about it and put it out of my mind. And then, just out of the blue and without thinking, the word will roll right of the end of my tongue as natural as you please. I’ve done it since I was a kid. I don’t think that you ever need to explain yourself; something I’m trying to practice as well. Although, it seems that we give better advice than what we live. I’m glad you had a good visit with your brother, doing nothing is the best sometimes. I don’t really like to drive either; not like I use to anyway, but the thing is is that I trust no one, and so basically, if you are not me, your driving pretty much sucks. Great to see you writing; I’m still stuck in first gear of course.

Thank you! I'm glad that you're glad that I write.
I would also read the dictionary at a young age. I couldn't say half of the words, mind you. I could barely read until I hit the fifth grade. But I always tried. The dictionary was certainly the best thing I could get my hands on. I always was interested with language. It boggled my mind. Like how did we, as humans, come up with such a thing? Did we all have a meeting as cave people? Did it come naturally? Did we just put sounds and things together? Do other animals have spoken languages? Do they have a body language thing going? Maybe that's why I wasted 5 years learning a dead language. Although, I do get to show off to random people. I also wondered how langauge evolved. I was just curious, and the dictionary helped with that.
Good luck with writing and I hope you have a nice day.

I think that we did have a meetings as cave people - definitely. You are fascinating; so many things to ponder and talk about. It's only just a tiny part of it, but our minds love to solve puzzles. It is so ancient, and yet there is beauty in this world that is ever unrealized. Our minds rotate to our world as we see fit. It comes as natural as night and daylight. I'll see you about 4'in the morn. Did you ever notice, how in books for instance, that everything happens around 4' in the morn, of course, that's my best Mark Twain impersonation. :) I think he's just so funny.
