Happy belated New Years, random thoughts, speech translations

     So I've been meaning to catch up on my post but I've been forgetful or been to busy. So this will be more a catch up then anything else.

Happy New Year

     So a lot of people set resolutions for the new year so in the spirit my only resolutions are to catch up on bills and be happy this year. Not much more can be said past that.

Speech translations

     I've been doing a lot of thinking on my newspaper route about what we say and how we say it. For example if you say," hate it when people are intolerant of other ....," then it translates to I'm intolerant of others' intolerance. Also phrases like "I hate haters" translates to "I'm a hater hater." The one I love though are the people who are unbiased about unbias people. These translations are more rephrasing long winded sentences into sentences that use the same word as both the subject and the verb so that through defining the words you get the actual meaning of the sentences. I had a few more but the route is long and ADD kicks in so I starting thinking about other things like the weather, proper spelling and it's poor relationship with phonics like "psychology" if used phonetically spelt would be more like "sykalogy." I realize now that doing that made me hate the idea of misspelling the word even though the end justifies the means, at least in my head it does.
     Also I've realized that there are sentences that if you don't put the words in the right order or switch one word for a different one they mean something completely different. Example being "put the food in the plate" don't worry I have heard this one that's how I know it exist. Plus you have "close the lights" or "open the lights" in some ways I can understand the usage but in today's world of switches and electricity those seem out of place. (Lost train of thought which comes from lack of sleep)

Random Thoughts

This I left as more an explanation of my absence for the past ....weeks? I guess this will be more like a blog post then the rest has been. Most of it is due to work and the adverse affect it has on me ie.: a large need for sleep that can extend from 4-11 hours if left alone. Mostly I get by on lack of sleep and caffeine but there are the days that I spend more time in bed then working. I  started sleeping more during the day because of the fear of being late for my paper route. Then it just grew on me typically I'm done with the route by 6:15 am on Monday-Saturday and then I sleep till 12 or so unless lack of sleep pushes me into evening time which I've done on various occasions. Sundays are the worse because i typically dont get done till 7 or 7:30 and then i end up staying awake till 3-4 and regret it the next morning when I run the chance of over sleeping. I now have a tablet that I've been using more for work and schedule keeping then play. Right now I'm typing this post on it. Its a very nice nexus 7 which has all the benefits of a laptop without the bulk, only problem I have is the lack of a proper keyboard I'm used to keys that physically depress not a touch screen with a simulated keyboard. My bills fall ever further behind which is frustrating to say the least. I've learned what its like to have a joint give out on me. Simply not fun I was glad the bed was there to break my fall. Past couple of days since then I've been suffering from hip pain that only hurts when I move my left leg in different positions but 10 hours of straight sleep helped to solve most the problems with that. Guess that concludes the train of thought that I had going so auvoir for now.
