Brian Explains OCD – Thoughts from December 3, 2010
Brian Explains: OCD Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is defined by Merriam-Webster as a “psychoneurotic disorder in which the patient is beset with obsessions or compulsions or both and suffers extreme anxiety or depression through failure to think the obsessive thoughts or perform the compelling acts.” I don’t mean to brag, but I have several forms of…

Brian Explains Screwing Up and Food – Thoughts from October 1, 2010
Future note: This is the third Brian Explains Life blog article I am including as part of the Thoughts from Life blog, but it should have been the first. I thought it was strange that the introduction to the blog was from 2010, but the articles were from 2011. To make up for this screw…

Waiting for Disney – Thoughts from January 6 and March 23, 2010
Future note: The following entry was from an “incident” that happened in November 2009. It was nighttime. A plumber was walking backstage, and I was driving to pick up some people. When I got close to him, I could see him slowing down and looking at me. As I passed him, he screamed, “Five miles…

Three Girl Cats Named Slash, Blaze, and Quest – Thoughts about June 3, 2009
(Future note: The following was written around May 2010, but June 3, 2009, is more relevant to what I’m talking about. This is the day Slash, Blaze, and Quest were born. As I mentioned in another Thoughts paper, Quest is still with us, along with four newcomers. Who are these people that came to live…

Drunk and Missing the Cat Sister – Thoughts from May 16, 2008
Know that I’m drunk right now, so what I say is from the mind of a drunken person. Have I mentioned that I’m drunk right now? I’m working at Disney these days. I’m a lead. On Friday and Saturday, I’m the lead most of the time. We have several people who started with me as…

Headed to Disneyland – Thoughts from November 10, 2004
All the songs on my MP3 player are sad songs. I need to change that. I need high-energy songs now. This whole “new chapter in my life” thing is happening, and I need to get excited and energized about it. I’m starting my training at Disneyland at 10:00 AM this Saturday. Brad, who I talked…

I’m Working on It – Thoughts from May 11 and 19, 2004
May 11, 2004 We had my mom over for Mother’s Day on, strangely enough, Mother’s Day this weekend. Our newly finished kitchen can be used to make shrimp, etc. We also had a Mother’s Day celebration at Patti’s mom’s house. I nerded it up with “the boys” most of the time. We were looking at…

Longing to Create Something in the World – Thoughts from April 12, 2004
Far from being happy about life, I sit. This sentiment has worn me down to a fine point. I hate the world and want it to bleed. I want to bleed. It’s only in typing these words that I realize I have not expressed the last sentence except to myself. Don’t worry. You can kill…

Valentine’s Day – Thoughts from February 17, 2004
I have a thought. Well, that’s good, Brian, because this is the place for such things, being as this is the Thoughts 2/17/04 paper. Let’s go! Okay! Oh yeah, this is 2004. This is my first Thoughts paper for 2004. This is not to be confused with my first thought of 2004. 2003, I hardly…

Eye Twitching Holidays – Thoughts from November 17 to December 18, 2003
November 17, 2003 My system had a minor crash again. I had worked on a song (a sad song), and it suddenly wouldn’t let me logon to Windows. After much ado, it’s back, but I’ve been saving all my songs in multiple locations – which I should have done before, but at least I’m doing…
