Today marks the first day that I've ever slept ten hours... I guess I was tired.  Today's word is still lethargy.  I have so much reading to do tonight before class that it is a little overwelming, and I don't feel like doing any of it.  I was supposed to read a book that I was supposed to pick up outside of class, but Barnes...

I'm naked, sweaty and exhausted....  
I've spent most of the last 4 days painting, roofing, doing drywall, hanging ceilings and sundry other things that have left me dirty and tired as as a five dollar whore on a Friday night. A long hot shower is calling my name.
I'm too tired to be depressed. Yay.

  Purple and green can look lovely together, but not if you do it every other wall.
Sorry about the IBS. I'm lactose intolerant, so I feel your pain.

I will say this much, working with my dad and brother is a lesson in perseverence.  Neither one of them has ever found a task they couldn't handle.  They will find a way to get it done...
I'm not that way, at least not when working with my hands. My place is more of an abstraction, more ephemeral...
or I'm just plain lazy when compared...

  Are you coming camping with SGKazoo and SGDetroit this weekend?
I suppose when life seems empty and your own thoughts echo through your head like a shout in a church you're bound to beat yourself up.  That support system of friends that so many take for granted is always conspicuous by its absence when you're stuck in your own head with no one else to give you a different perspective.  I'd like to thank Bathory...

I've been feeling lost and disconnected.  I hate being this way.  The utter helplessness of being either unable or unwilling to touch anything meaningful...  I can't even write.  Usually I could find some solace in writing some poetry... not lately...  
 
Anybody know how to hang a suspended ceiling...?

  it was a difficult task...but i was determined. * starts glowing*
aw, why do you feel lost and disconnected?
i was this way not so long ago. i hate not being able to write in a state like that. it really is close to the worst feeling ever. hmm...let me remember what got me out of it.
i think it was
1) all the awesome support from all of my friends (on SG and off)
2) buying a cd that id never heard of (which, i believe, was a members suggestion)
3) going out walking around and noticing how greatful i should be to have what i do. and just the pure feeling of independence ALWAYS helps me.
hope it helps you.

Many people seem to have forgotten that patriotism can involve not supporting the current regime.  Patriotism is to do what's best for the nation as a people, not for the upper class, or for those who own business and industry.  If shows of patriotism did not include dissension for some or all of the government's policies, we'd still be celebrating the Queen's birthday and pledging...

I've spent a while today going through the message boards, and there is some hilarious shit in there.  If I've learned nothing else about the membership of this site yet, the one thing I have learned is that these people as a group have a great sense of humor.  Maybe it's just me, maybe I'm just so needy for a good laugh that I'll laugh...

  Hey, just saw you were in Kzoo, welcome  
yeah, attention of any kind makes me pretty happy, which is odd because I'm really shy-
but if the other person is willing to make an effort to talk to me I usually perk right up

Idle hands are the devil's playthings.  I need something evil to do.  I could take my digital camera out, set the timer, then drop trou in public places...  Hey, if anyone has any ideas about how I can use my free time in interesting ways, let me know...  
 
       
 Another day...
My dentist likes my straight teeth, so do I to be honest...
Not a lot going on today... Anybody want to come out and help me weed my little vegetable garden? My tomatoes are looking a little dry too... 
 
I suppose my deeper thoughts at this point include something more substantial. I almost forgot about my dentist appointment and got there 15 minutes...

  Welcome to the site. I'm sorry about your insurance running out. I haven't had any for 3 years and counting. It really sucks. But I have a plan if I ever get hurt badly. That plan you ask... It's to walk in front of a moving car. Great plan huh? God bless our country and it's shitty health coverage. 
But be happy it's almost the weekend.

  Yeah, I guess not having health insurance is one of those fringe benefits of not being employed.  I'm enjoying the free time, but I hope I don't get hit by a bus or anything, I'll be doubly fucked.  Anybody want to hire an aspiring writer...? Hell, at this point, I'd do just about anything.  I'll be somebody's indentured servant for all it matters.  I'm not hurting for money, but I have too much time on my hands.  And we all know that "idle hands are the devil's playthings."  Now if only I had something evil to do...  
 
 
 I still don't know what to make of things.  I can say however that too much of anything, even SG, would be a bad thing.  I've spent too much time hiding out in my basement with my xbox.  I need to do some shit while I'm not working and I actually have some money put away.  I worked at that damn job I hated for...

  I'm teaching English lit, creative writing and the like for high school students.  I have a B.S. in psych, but I think everyone knows how meaningful that is in the job market...
Earthy beige and green... sounds lovely. The purple sectional probably looks great!
