I am a wraith.
I have been for years. I touch lives lightly and disappear completely when I sense that it's time to move on. I hold myself aloof even from people that I like simply to be able to ghost away when the time comes.
I wasn't always like this. I used to engage with people and not hold myself at a safe remove....

Another quiet Saturday passed at home. How long has it been since I had a social life? How can I care so little? My answer to both is, "Who knows?"
flux:
You and me both, brother.
I'm feeling not particular inclination to go to work today, and there's a car show and Jarhead and so much more to do. Decisions, decisions. I suppose I'll kick back, listen to a little more Massive Attack with breakfast, and think on it.
archernu:
My plans to see the 10:10 showing of Jarhead were derailed. I'm now aiming for the Saturday matinee.
Oh. I wasn't impressed with Weather Man. I was impressed, however, with the tenacity of the Bella's concessions staff: I was asked at least three times if I wanted to try one of their combos. "I'm going to opt out of the 170oz. vat of popcorn, thanks. Do you have a soda smaller than a quart?"

I'm watching Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal. Earlier tonight, I read the "Olympus" arc of Miracleman. One has death play a knight at chess; the other speculates that a nascent God and his nemesis played chess in their final, apocalyptic battle. I've always loved the stories where chess is played to determine the outcome of life and death situations. It seems so civilized....

Yes, shortly before I typed that entry I shook my fist at the sky until I pulled a muscle.
dogslife:
That's exactly how I pictured your digs. Spartan.
I'm sipping a bit of earl grey while eating a piece of buttered baguette and listening to the new Franz Ferdinand. Today, I'll get a project done at work and keep another on pace. Tonight, I'll watch Episode III and make a semi-spectabular dinner. Throughout it all, I'll wait to hear back about my interview.
Life is returned to normal.
Life is returned to normal.
Today:
- I got yelled at by a butcher at Whole Foods after I didn't understand what he'd mumbled at me. He wouldn't stop the harangue until another butcher told him to lay off and go in the back.
- I got rammed hard enough from behind by a shopping cart driven by a little kid that I doubled over in pain because the corner...

My boyfriend keeps warning me against those, but they sound so good.
I got to see some people I enjoy seeing last night. I exchange a few pleasant words with someone whom I figured I would share an emnity.
Despite how yesterday afternoon proceeded, I'm determinted not to let myself slide backward. I'm making great strides at fixing those few things I don't like about myself.

Whoa that is exactly like me, well exactly like I have been up until this past year when I have been stuck in a balance between the two which doesn't appeal to my extremist nature.
charley:
You are right and it is weird that you should say all this because I was thinking about it earlier today. The cyclic nature of life, especially my life in comparison to other people I know, the cyclic nature of the town I live in etc etc
All whilst buttering some toast, I think I was high on cough mixture.

I hate it so much when I get angry. I wish it would really rain. Pouring rain goes with expensive vodka and brooding.
They ended this round of interviews with, "The next round of interviews may either be here or in Mountain View. There's a director here that owns the wireless stuff, so he'd probably want to meet you one-on-one before you go to Mountain View." That's of course if there is another round of interviews.
I feel like I've been put through a wringer.

I'm studying for an interview. God help me, I'm honestly nervous. It's like being a freshman in college all over again. Except I seem to be sorely lacking in coeds wanting threesomes.

venice:
People are really pretty amusing in general.
venice:
Yes, that is precisely it. I just can't figure out why that's so terrible.
