As you may know, Hurricane Maria has made a mess out of PR. My Little Pony was delayed until today, but I was unable to see it due to work issues. (The only showing IN ENGLISH is during times I'm at work! Screw the Spanish dub. I want to see the show as I have seen it for the past 7 seasons... I mean, I didn't go through all the trouble of meeting Tara Strong just to avoid her voicework. Yes, I still can't believe I met Tara Strong. Where was I? Oh yeah! Normalcy. I still have no power or internet at home... The local adult store has been closed and ransacked... It wasn't me, alright! So, accessing free Wi-Fi from stores or coffeehouses. I drink coffee now. Means that certain sites are blocked off. So I feel like I'm in pre-internet Junior high era. Only difference is that I COULD BUY THE ADULT MAGAZINES if they were available. And I went a bit too far on that tangent. But let's face it. A LOT of internet usage is for porn. I'm getting off of this tangent (poor choice of words there) ASAP. Thing is for some, normalcy involves access to the internet (and porn) for others, being able to go to the cinema and watch an adventure starring pastel colored horses BEING pastel colored horses and not teenage girls who act like the pastel colored horses. Getting some MOTUC can also give me a sense of normalcy. But with every delay; whether it was the movie's premiere being pushed back, or my work schedule interfering with my movie time, or BBTS having issues with my credit card; it takes away a bit of normalcy and reminds me of the grim reality in PR. These little things that seem superficial when there are shortages of key items are what keep my sanity.
This Hurricane and its aftermath have been VERY demoralizing. It's the "silly things" what givestrangleall strength to keep on going. I am thankful for having a roof, two jobs, but "all work and no play" and all that. I know it's kind of running away, but I need some escape from the grim reality PR is going through, otherwise it will strangle me metaphorically speaking.
