Apparently H.G. Wells last words were -
Go away, I'm all right!
Excellent.

Happy new year everyone. Here we open the front door to let in the new year and open the back door to let all the badness of the last year out. I hope this year will be a good one xxxxxxx

I think 2008 was one of the very worst years ever, I hope 2009 is 100 times better.
azmodaguar:
uit is going to be a good one. 2009 is the year of change; a year to shrug off expectations and chase dreams

oh man.
It's really cold here right now, the temperature today is below freezing now. We have lit the coal fire though so hopefully things will at least warm up a bit inside! I'm doing my usual study and reading. I have been given two packages of books from my wishlist lately and I still don't know who they are from. Thank you so much to my...

Thank you, that means a lot. About the job and the hat. Hope you get the nursing assistant job!
I just told my current service users that I'm leaving. They were upset. Moving on is hard!

Hmm... I'm so intrigued by Hoffers at the moment, now I'm really tempted to hunt it down soon despite my book mountain that's growing 
Thanks for the Gubaidulina tip. It's very spare, and has such atmosphere. I crave beautiful music that evokes the beauty of sadness. Some of it really reminds me of Gorecki's earlier pieces. I've been really getting back into Phillip Glass at the moment. Add me on last.fm sometime.
Have you read A World Without Bees by Alison Benjamin & Brian McCallum?

It's one of the most beautiful cities I've ever been in. I lived in Mala Strana for a long time (just below the castle district) right off the Charles Bridge. I loved walking across that thing at 3 in the morning. I always felt safe there, even though I saw some crazy shit go down on the streets.
And yes, that shirt is extremely cool. Be careful wearing it out as geeks might be compelled to rip it from your body and worship it.

Thank you for providing the contrast to that last journal entry with all the great and kind messages! I know I haven't written back to everyone and I feel bad but I'm so short on time right now and I keep forgetting who I've replied to when I do try! I hope you know that I read every message and appreciate them immensely even if...

you back, omg, what a beautiful new [ just for the record that I'm a little inative here ]
[ just for the record that I'm a little inative here ]I have been reading Marcus Aurelius Meditations. I'm really enjoying a lot of philosophy from Roman times like Seneca, Epictetus and MA and I think Stoicism in general is a really beautiful philosophy. If anyone has read The Moral Discourses of Epictetus then tell me which translation you have and how you find it? I have an old copy I picked up in a...

thank you x x x
I know nothing; i know this to ultimatley be the truth, according to Socrates that makes for the wisest people alive--so please allow me to give thought and opinion...
Personally, i think your job fits perfectly with the what you describe as you nature; too many people no naught of the moments value, and the things truly valuable in that moment. in most cases, to understand this at all they must stare in the mirror of their own mortality--or lose it all and be left with nothing but a pulse to build a new life on. while this sometimes enriches people beyond measure--it also kills many; whether they live through it or not.
Your job, however temporary, should be most cherished--you are the last human to care for them before angels or whatever you believe in. the Farewell Usher. Your job when combined with your outlook and nature provides and blesses you with the perspectives that usually come at great price. You have the honor of holding a truly honored position and learning most precios lesson without their usual dire cost.
love the bit about the sisters and fool too, by the way, gotta love realism liturature--try Candide.
