subliminal beard messages.

i am currently in my living room with terri and elsie. terri is watching a horrible program about brides shopping for their dress. i am not really watching this crap, but listening to the background music. you could swear that when one of these brides to be doesn't find what she wants, it's like the most dramatic part of a hitchcock movie. then the music becomes sweet when the woman gets what she wants.

this happens over and over in the show while you, the viewer, subliminally hears it happen. i have seen this many times in shows before. they were mostly dramas and also very fake. to see this happening in so called 'reality' shows is really a horrible thing to do to people.

you end up on an emotional roller coaster ride without even being aware of it. the show then makes you addicted because you don't even realize this is happening until it is over.

to have this happen in a drama or a movie is fine. to interject this into 'reality.' i fell, can be damaging.

i am going to re iterate that i am happy the television has been more off than on in recent days, and this is yet another reason why.

O.k. that aside, it's novembeard. yes, novembeard. it is the time of the year to grow facial hair if you are a fella, to get ready for the cold weather. i am on my third attempt at growing a beard and i am hoping that this time around, it will come in fully. i am hoping to have one equal but not as grey as my dads. ha! we'll see.
i remember being at my local around this time last year, and i was having a coke that night instead of drinking, and my friend said' hey, where's your beer?'

i replied, 'beer?'

His voice raised, he said', 'no BEARD!' It's novembeard.'

i was puzzled, yet bemused.

there really isn't a lot more t talk about. we've been busy at work. i've been losing weight and i am just making sure that i get enough time with elsie as i can.

it has been rough to be away from her, i've already statedthtis before, but it's worth it now as she is slowly becoming more aware of her surroundings and who terri and i are. she wakes up for me when i come home and every time i come in the room, she moves her head in my direction. pretty neat.
