Friday Fives

1. What are your favorite ways to relax and unwind? Two ways. One is driving my truck around in the woods, specifically the Rockies here outside of Denver. The other, and you tell no one about this, is taking baths. Seriously, stop snickering you guys. I do it at least once a week, and have ever since college. By college, I mean cosmetology school. 2. What do you do the moment you get home from work/school/errands? Find my spoon & lighter, dig a syringe out of the couch, bust the balloon, sit down, tie off, and shoot the sweet, sweet goodness right on home until sadness and injustice go away. Just kidding, jeesh! I come home and turn on CNN or the Weather Channel like everyone else. Right after I shoot up. Kidding. 3. What are your favorite aroma-therapeutic smells? Vanilla. I am crazy for the smell, and can't get enough of it. Look, see? Just talking about Vanilla, and my pants are off already. Oh don't act disgusted, reader. Let's just say I ain't the only guy in America sitting at a computer in a basement without any pants at 1 in the morning. Also, coffee has a very pleasing smell to me. That is probably more anticipation than real association, though. I may not have my first cup of coffee until noon, but it is often the last thing I drink before I go to bed. I think my nervous system is totally fried, America. 4. Do you feel more relaxed with a group of friends or hanging out by yourself? Hmmm... tough to say. As much as I love and need friends... I am happiest by myself. For example, I can go out and eat dinner alone. I have gone to movies alone. I have even gone to rock concerts alone (hitchhiked, at that. Another story for another time). Listen, it's not that I don't like you, I am just saying we have different interests. It's not you, reader, it's me. See, now you're crying. Why do you always do that? I'm sorry, I am happier with you, reader. I'm sorry we ever fought. So can we finally have sex now? 5. What is something that you feel is relaxing but most people don't? to revert back to number one, crusing around in the woods. Specifically, I am in my truck, have a couple of beers in me, and the music is good. That, and smack; 'Riding the horse', 'having a chat with Jerry Garcia', 'chasing the dragon'... I think y'all know what I am talking about here... China white, Afghan Tar, Mugwump jism! As always, thanks to go to Roy for this week's questions. now, please click 'comments' and add your own answers to today's fives. Seriously, you guys. My therapist doesn't believe I really have a website... so I need you guys on this stuff, otherwise I have to do rorschachs all next week (hint, don't say "isn't that your mother having sex with the devil, again?)
