I was on my own, very little money, thankfully no debt but still just barely squeaking by with rent, utilities, etc.
So there is a movie on sale at Walmart that is one of my all time cheesy favorites and I decide I am going to purchase said movie for $5.00.
I was excited, bought the movie, had to go to work the next day so didn't think much about it after I got it home.
The weekend comes along and I'm excited, I can sit down and watch the movie I bought so I go and I get my movie, I unwrap it, take it out of the package then it dawns on me I do not have a DVD Player....um.......DUH
Apple is where it's at. I've gone all apple except for the windows laptop/tablet convertible machine I have. The onky reason I bought that was the price was right.
.. I have a mac, ipad, mini, iphone.... and a windows machine so I can build/test servers etc.

I can't get into poetry. Writing and essays are more my speed.
You have a sick sense of humor, much like me... you'd really love Charles Bukoswki's "Love is a dog from hell" poems...... great writing and it appeals to the working man... simple, basic.. and clever as hell writing... if you ever get a chance look him up...you won't be disappointed.... trust me on this and I never really recommend reading to people......
I've started to dabble in the prose/poetry... mine is dark and simple and somewhat skeletal and basic...... insert sex joke here.....
I'll dig it up and post it........

When the words pop in my brain they have to be written no matter where I am or what I am doing.
I wrote one poem many years ago on toilet paper in the bathroom stall of a restaurant in Shreveport Louisiana that didn't even have prices on the menu. If you had to ask how much it was you could not afford to walk through the door.
I was wearing a very formal evening gown, had my hair done, make up (just a touch), nails painted, stilettos, etc and was writing a poem sitting there while going pp.
I was having a bad day and was feeling overwhelmed and I was having a heated convo with Mrs. Chow and during it I muttered something along the lines of below..... she was with me... she knew what I meant and while it sounds unpolished... it was from the heart and wasn't scripted.... I said this in a bit of anxiety and depression I was feeling at the moment.
"I'm drowning in a pool of water.
She can't save me because she's in the water too."

"I love Shakespeare. Favorite subject in school, still read Shakespeare today. But people complain that it’s impractical to learn so much about Shakespeare, but let me learn you something: If it wasn’;t for William Shakespeare, I would have totally overreacted when my fiance killed herself!
Now if you didn’t laugh at that one, I understand. I’m not for everybody, but you should probably read more."Anthony Jeselnik (stand-up comedian)

I knew you would enjoy that little story however, that was only round one.
Round two goes like this:
Since I am barely squeaking by I start saving what little I can each and a few months go by and I finally have saved enough to purchase a DVD player.
So I go and I actually found one on sale and I make this purchase and have about $10.00 leftover from what I had saved.
Again, I don't watch much television or movies so no big hurry on my part to get the thing hooked up, had to work, other things going on etc.
Several months later I remember I have the movie and the DVD player so I go and get both out of the closet, get the DVD player taken out of the box, read the directions and then as I am going to put the DVD player with the television I remember that I don't actually own a television...
No movie for me that weekend either.
