Well I got a call from my Dad's girlfriend and she needed someone to drive with her over to the Honda Service Station so she could get a ride home. It was one of those trips that makes you believe in evil spirits... nearly got in three or four accidents, and my stomach had a pit in it. Things went poorly and suddenly everything lifted midway through dinner at Panera Bread, and now I'm listening to Silver by the Pixies and kind of hanging out at home.

My Dad's girlfriend (I don't want to reveal a bunch of names on the Internet) is really cool, but she kind of wants to talk about difficult things and then act philosophical about them so it's like "No this is really difficult for me... I don't want to be philsophical about it. Let's just not talk anymore." That kind of thing. I think what it is... maybe she just knows I'm upset and wants me to feel better. My opinion is, "I'll talk about it with you, but it makes me upset, don't try to make me feel better."

She drove Dad down to the Airport today, and I think she's been really good for him. I can't figure her out exactly, but I don't really need to. I've got nothing she wants; no worries. Dad can do what he wants, and that is none of my business.

I really think she's just a tender-hearted older woman with some problems. Whatever happens I'm not involved in it either. I was happy to help her, and after I calmed things down a little with some of that assertiveness training (yeah!) the evening went perfectly fine.

This evening has had a really weird vibe. Smooth Criminal came on after Silver because my Songs folder in iTunes is in alphabetical order and it's sounding really creepy. Oh well, just sit through it I guess, meaning the creepiness and not the song.

Sober came on next. Ha. Didn't know Tool was straightedge did you? Listen to this part of Opiate where this guy is smoking hooch, and Maynard calls to security and says "Get that Bob Marley wanna-be motherf-er out of here!" So then why all the references to heroin? Maybe they just don't like weed, I don't know!

I'm the last hardline Gnostic jungle fan, and I'm the last man. I need a nap or something I'm getting all weirded out. I'll be back on in a couple of hours.
