All my little plans
I sometimes think that I've lived my whole life into hotels. I can't remember the first hotel that I stayed in. It may have been when my house burned down as a child. There have been quite a few hotel stays you know. I always stayed in them when I travelled somewhere, visited friends, dated someone in a different state, or get stranded due to the car issues. You wouldn't believe the collection of miniature soap that I have. I can almost build a little castle with them. Most hotels have gotten to where they look pretty generic to me. There's the same bland painting that you can buy at a yard sale for $3.00. You can tell that it's cheap because it has a gold frame. There are the same slightly dirty lampshades on each side of the bed. There are the lines that keep going up and down on the small television. There's the standard non-removable headboards above the bed. They have headboards bolted to the walls so that you won't wake up the neighbors by banging them on the walls when you are fucking. It's also so that you won't have anything to put your handcuffs around. As you can tell, by my conversation that all I'm slightly bored. One conversation is also a reflection of whatever environment I'm in. This room is stark and bare. As such so is my conversation.
The only thing that really bothers me about hotels is the bleached sheets. I'm allergic to bleach. My skin dries up like crazy. I'm dictating this instead of typing and I'm sitting here in boxer shorts and rubbing myself with aloe. I will have to bring a sleeping bag to my next hotel. I will be staying in a few, two nights every month actually for the next 4 years. That's 6 grand in hotel fees for the next 4 years.
So what's new with you?
I was having a conversation with someone recently when they were talking abut the progression of god's distance from us and. In the old testament he walked and talked with us. In the new testament he talked to us through angels and Jesus did the walking. These days we don't even get so much as a phone call from him.
Do you think he got tired of us or do you think he just needs a marching and recreational for oracle'sI just said the best heats up. Instrumental stored on rumor. But rapeseed again to mark Whicker and as you may or may not narrow aisle and consumer drive a Japanese firm.
I apologize. I am actually dictating this to my computer. It must not have been able to understand the last paragraph. It is interesting what it printed. After reading it, I can't remember what I'm saying.
I have to tell you I'm a little bummed about heath ledgers death. I don't know anything about his acting career, but I get the sense that he's going to make a great joker and I'm sad to know that I will not see a follow-up performance in Batman 3.
I'm enjoying being back in school. It's been over a year since I was last in school and I've been itching to come back. I have to say that my favorite part of this university, my favorite physical part of the university, is a little corner of the library with two glass windows that open out onto a spectacular view of Atlanta.
I sometimes think that I would love to live in Atlanta. There's always something to do. There are always new friends to make. There's always something to keep you entertained. The bad news is crowded with people, traffic is bad, is very expensive. There's no checking your mail in just your boxer shorts here. If I ever moved back to the city it would probably be Baton Rouge. Maybe someday. I do want to work at LSU.
While I have to run. I have to go over 6 more journal articles before I can take a break. I've had the primaries on CNN in the background as I have been studying. Did you know what I only watch the news when in hotel rooms? I think it's because being in a hotel gives one a sense of separation from the rest of the world. I usually keep myself attached by spending time with friends and whatever city that I'm in, calling friends, or watching the news.
Incidentally, I have found the best little pizza shop around the corner from the hotel. I'll be here for the next four years I think.
I have a lot of friends who were going to see Rambo tonight. I have no idea why. I do hope they enjoyed though. As for me, I would've laughed all the way through it. Something about the old man going back to war just makes me laugh. I think it's because the actor was caught with steroids while filming the movie.
