My vacation!

I don't get to travel much, but when I do I never know the best way to share my journey. Twitter doesn't give you enough characters, and Facebook is too filled with political posts these days. Instagram banned me for direct messaging photos of my feet to celebrities, so I decided to share my adventures on my blog. I hope you enjoy!

Have you ever seen anything so stunning? I haven't because my eyes melted.

When I arrived I was immediately taken aback by the view! While I had heard that the scenery would blow me away, I didn't think that my skin would literally fall off of my bones!

Found some unwelcome creatures where I stayed...

I wish the hotel I stayed at had called an exterminator before I arrived... yuck! The facility was otherwise fine (though the pool of eternally burning fire could have been a little bigger), but I CANNOT stand finding critters where I sleep. I'm sure you wouldn't be able to sleep either if you had these guys crawling under your bed and ripping out your intestines.

Food was a little ashy

The food was interesting, to say the least. First of all, the plate it was served on was WAY too hot, and I almost left before my food finally came out. How long does it take to simply heat something up to 7 trillion degrees? And after all of that... I'm pretty sure it was microwaved. I would have complained, but the food burned my tongue, jaw, and throat right off my body.

So great to meet you Tortured Soul 543,324,654,102, Tortured Soul 435,902,122, and Tortured Soul 5 (sorry if I spelled your names wrong!)

My absolute favorite thing about traveling is meeting the locals! Of all the places I've been, I think this trip takes the cake for the most interesting and glum people. I had a hard time understanding what a lot of them were saying (not sure what their language was - sounded like a lot of wailing - can anyone help me out???), but I was still able to communicate pretty well with them. One guy grabbed my arm as I walked by, and though I didn't have a translator, I could tell he wanted me to switch places with him for the rest of eternity. Sorry buddy, but I like my running water and air that doesn't poison your lungs yet not kill you a little too much!

Cliffs of Despair

While some of the sight seeing spots were a little touristy, I'm glad I got a chance to see one of the more famous one! I wasn't brave enough to cast my soul into the Pits of Anguish, but the people that had a more daredevil streak seemed to shriek and writhe in pleasure.

Experiencing new places makes you chuckle and ask yourself How Long Have I Been Here Are These Thoughts My Own

Loved this little hole in the wall place!

Traveling isn't all fun. My least favorite part of the trip.

Loved hearing this guy play some tunes on the bones of sinners. Could listen to it for trillions of years!

In all honesty, one of the worst airports I've been to. It didn't have any outlets and forced you to relive all the traumatic moments of your past over and over for all eternity.

Three tips on getting your beach body that don't involve going to war with Iran

Summer is almost here, which means Americans will be heading to the beach, pool, and possibly the Middle East to start another genocidal war that will only further destabilize the region. Here are some tips that make sure you look good while also ensuring you don't kill hundreds of thousands of people. 1.) Stick to your diplomatic relationship and your workout routine. Having a set plan can go a loooong way in ensuring you get to the gym every week. Once you establish something that works, though, don't give up just because you get busy or you want to tarnish your predecessor's legacy. Abs don't show up in one week. Don't stop your workout just because your tummy doesn't get flat right away, or because of unfounded claims that the 2015 peace deal deal isn't working. As Dory from Finding Nemo famously says: 2.) Maintain a high-protein breakfast and avoid appointing John Bolton as your National Security Advisor. Any breakfast that inc...

CULTURE MUSINGS: How is the new Aladdin different from the original?

This Memorial Day weekend, Disney released Aladdin, the live-action version of one of its most popular movies based on the life of U.S. President Warren G. Harding's youngest son. While the adaption mostly stays true to the original, some eagle-eyed fans might have noticed these changes in Guy Ritchie's remake. The events of the live action film do not end up causing the Hindenburg disaster. It is heavily implied in the 1992 Aladdin film that the main character inadvertently creates a chain reaction through history that end up resulting in the 1937 explosion of the Hindenburg, starting with a chase scene at the beginning of the film. As Aladdin runs from palace guards, he bumps into a man who looks very similar to Ludwig Durr, the designer of the Hindenburg. John Musker and Ron Clements, the directors of the animated film, confirmed in several interviews that the man is indeed the airship designer's ancestor, and that Aladdin's collision with him has dire conse...

Raytheon releases rainbow-colored bomb to celebrate pride month

Sana’a, Yemen – Showing its support for the LGBTQ+ community, Massachusetts-based weapons manufacturer Raytheon unveiled its own rainbow-colored bombs to commemorate Pride Month. Wesley Kremer, President of Raytheon, says that world leaders can help raise awareness for important causes like LGBTQ+ equality by purchasing these bombs to use on other countries, warships, or even their own citizens. “We think it is important for our business to show their support for such a diverse community with a rich and resilient history,” said Kremer. “That’s why we’ve manufactured bombs that are not only painted the colors of the rainbow on the outside, but also explode in flashes of orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple smoke upon detonation.” Kremer explained that the bombs do not emit red smoke because the blood from men, women, and children will serve as the crimson hue of the rainbow. Emir Hamid, a Yemeni man who identifies as gay, said that he felt supported by the LGBTQ+ representa...

Something you never want to hear from your significant other

It started out like a regular date night. Both of us had survived tough weeks at work, and we relished the chance to get away from it all. After paying for our meal, we weren't yet ready to head in, so we decided to go for a walk by the river. It was warm, but the breeze off the water soothed us. My partner and I held hands. We chitchatted. I don't remember what we talked about, but then he turned to me and told me something I will never forget. My first reaction after hearing these words was shock. I never in my life imagined I would hear something like that directed at me, especially from someone I cared about so deeply. Did he really just say that? I wondered. Even though I had heard him clearly, my only response was, "What?" He repeated. Again, every word entered my ear and soured all happy memories I had of my partner. Every warm feeling that I felt towards him was now ice cold, and it was just as shocking to hear the second time: A roller skating ...
