Next Level Living (Blog 543)

Earlier on today, I finally bit the bullet and downloaded scriptwriting software onto my computer all by myself. Yes, to do so you only need to know how to read and follow basic instructions (nothing more complicated than ‘drag the image to install’) but when everything was over, I did get a more than noticeable buzz, one comparable to finishing a long gym session. I was on top of the world. Things didn’t go 100% smoothly though. I forgot the password for the site as I last used it many years ago now but not to worry, I just set up another account with a different email. Look me in the eyes and tell me I’m not a computer whizz, now! The very best. There is a very small chance I bought the same software twice by accident as I clicked on the download more than once, but you’d think it would be hard to do that by mistake… Right? It’s an excellent way to make money though, to be fair. I’d just be annoyed, that’s all.

Also, when I entered the passkey so I could start using the program, I got an error message saying it had timed out, I didn’t know what that meant so I entered the passkey again, and everything was fine! I think that makes me a SUPER whizz. It wasn’t just me that screwed up though, I got a confirmation email saying ‘Good luck with your writing!.’ Notice the full stop after the exclamation mark, it wasn’t necessary and I actually think that qualifies as a mistake. A grammar mistake from a company specialising in writing tools?? In complete contrast, I’ve been acing the English language, elsewhere. You might want to check out my Testament review that will be shown on Metal Rules in a couple of weeks - I used a semi colon and not to show off, I genuinely think I had a valid reason for using it!

The people in Testament are smart guys, I think they’d appreciate my pro use of punctuation. They probably won’t like it quite as much as my 4.5/5 rating, I’d have thought that would be the most significant part of my review at least, but who knows? You know what’s really cool, though? For about 2 or 3 minutes (the time it will take to read my review), a super famous band will hear about ME! Unless they’re too ‘cool’ to waste their time looking at what I have to write. It’s like rock bands turning up half an hour late to concerts, no one really  thinks that’s cool, it’s being an asshole. What goes on in the mind of such performers? It was also cool how I had the album to review before it was released to the general public. Basically it made me feel superior, making me a prioritised computer genius. :O

More importantly, a couple of days ago I went for a poo and there was a fair amount of blood, but things are definitely getting better today. At risk of being crude, I think I may have torn my bum. I didn’t think it was cancer or anything, as I THINK that would show up on my monthly Clozapine blood tests. Not telling me I had the disease would be a real dick move, obviously. Lesson of the day, drink more water! And I’d probably much rather have diarrhoea than constipation. ‘But diarrhoea is contagious and constipation isn’t!’ Good, it’s for the best if other people get it, it’s me being kind. If anything I should sleep outside in the Winter, that would probably help me out. Or maybe I could hang around sick people in hospital. How to explain my reason for being there, though?

I’m not completely in the clear though, tomorrow I’m going to the dentist! :S The other day I was flossing my teeth and I thought a bit of tooth came off! It was much more likely to be plaque. A horrifying experience for a few seconds though, and it’s not much better than getting your teeth scraped with metallic objects. I mean is that really the best way to ‘clean’ them? And I have to pay the dentists for that as well… Can’t they just wash plaque away with some extra strength mouthwash? In fact such people DO give you mouth wash when they’re ‘finished’ I think that alone is what cleans you up. I think the teeth scraping beforehand is just for the sake of it. Evil people. I’m going to have to apologise to dentists now, aren’t I? Whoops. And on that paranoid and sorry note… bye!
