Captivity - Day 86 The Mosquitos Ate My Tree

They tell me it was nice outside.
Unfortunately I only had one nap. It ran from noon to 8:28.
Going to see if I can get one more in before bed.


As a result of all the protesting, I'm only watching porn with a positive message.


My BFF had some odd tremors. He went to the doctor and got some medicine for it. They told him to take the pill carefully because it could cause sleepiness. He slept the entire day. Then he slept most of the day. In fact, he slept most of the week. He went back to the doc, complaining that the pill put him to sleep. Doc said it worked perfectly: he was not bothered by tremors the entire week.



Pro Tip: If you're going to have sex at work, don't use the room with the only color laser printer. I had no idea so many people print in color. errr... what I meant was I had to print in color and......




One of the Big Things we will all ponder and face, is 'what's it all about?' Why am I here? What am I supposed to be doing? Am I supposed to leave a legacy or get out so quietly that no one notices?

While I'm meandering all over the place, I found the results of a study that said volunteering may add years to your lifespan and improves overall well-being.

I have none of the answers, but I suspect volunteering belongs in there somewhere. It comes under 'Do Good.' This doesn't directly answer the questions but it may be helpful as you continue to work on them. At very least, it's good for whoever you're volunteering for, as well as yourself. Volunteering is an all-encompassing word that covers many things. You can volunteer at a shelter, an animal shelter, zoo, children's organizations, local charities or projects... the list is endless. I kinda like 'Do Good' more. The smaller or more-personal level stuff is rewarding.

Someone suggested a Big Brother or mentoring thing. Good God, do you really want your poor child to be mentored by or spend time with a fairly 'different'  blogger who studies conspiracies, has the maturity of an adolescent, and thinks that most people on the planet are idiots? Teach the child about ufos, interesting approaches to sex, the Kennedy assassination, and how our rulers are going to ruin life for us all? How to lockdown his phone and stop using Google for anything because they're coming to get us?  Don't these organizations screen volunteers?

Ok, so maybe that's not for me.
I could give guitar lessons (if I didn't have the patience of a pregnant gnat).
Mentor in computers (provided they forsake Windows)
Teach swimming  (it would be more of a teaching to drown- I can't swim)

They say that the teacher learns from the student. They could teach me:

Social media
How to talk to girls
Behaving in public  (just a little bit)
Vegetables
A great love of current music

Perhaps I need to rethink this volunteering thing...



The doctor said to cut down on caffeine.
I was horrified.
He took one look at me and suggested, "Why don't you just spill more of it on your shirt?"
