Bald Jason's Musings
Tuesday, January 22, 2008
I decided that I was going to have a snack and read and wait until after rush hour to go out. I went into Mark's room and told him what I had decided. Then I went downstairs. The kitchen smelled of cleaning products. While I had slept this morning our neighbors and our own kitchen sinks were backed up with sewage? It was all fuzzy in my head because I'd been told about it when I got up to use the restroom before returning to bed. I figured it was all safe now, as 1) Mark had said it was fixed and I couldn't hear the plumber working next door anymore 2) I'd just told Mark that I was going to eat and he didn't say anything 3) The kitchen smelled of cleaning products and I had seen him cleaning when I'd woken up briefly before.
I used the sink to wash the pan I used, and made my food, and ate it while I finally read some of my book. Later I got a call from my friend Chris telling me that Heath Ledger died today! I wondered if he'd finished filming the new Batman movie, and remembered that he looked really creepy as the Joker. It just seemed so crazy. I thought it was a joke, but it wasn't. I read about it on CNN.
Then after that, Mark told me not to use the sink as he hadn't cleaned it yet!?! WTF? I had told him hours ago that I was going to eat, and he didn't mention anything like this to me. When I told him I'd already eaten, he said he didn't know why I'd assume that he'd already cleaned up in there.
So Heath Ledger is dead and I may have poisoned myself because Mark couldn't remember to tell me that if I ate anything it could hurt me. Which he should have warned me about right away. And especially after I said that I was going to eat. He's working, but you'd think a potentially dangerous situation would have pulled him out of the zone to just warn me about it. And now he's just kind of writing it off as my own damned fault, and he's not even showing any concern.
I just walked in and asked him about this. And he was still acting like he was pissed off, and not a tiny bit worried about me, which I pointed out. I don't even know what's going on with him right now, but it's not cool.
There was this whole section here where I went on about Mark's good qualities, but I hit the backspace button a few times and the whole blog thing shut down. So...I'm thinking there are still some bugs in this thing. I have this blog thanks to Mark. I wish that I hadn't lost these paragraphs, because I rather liked them and they made me feel slightly better, and then when I lost them I felt worse than before. Fucking computer.
Mark says if I get sick in the next 24 hours or so we'll know why. That's a comfort. Thanks.
Whatever. I'm going shopping.
And I can't believe Brad Renfro & Heath Ledger are dead.
