Nevermind that previous...rambling about some sort of gossamer dream-state I was in earlier. Nevermind at all.


Anyways, I haven't been on SG much and there's not that much that ties me to here still. But there are a few things that do keep me, in a good way, and so I'm still here...

First is that I got one of my old groups back. I...

I haven't been able to get in the mood to write much lately and when I'm able to muster the effort, it often feels forced. I've been in a funk lately, even moreso than normal and without any normal way within my own means to cure it.

I've gotten myself addicted to...new pop songs. Yeah, I know, I know. Fluff, no substance.... I'm more retro...

I completely agree on the whole Sea World thing. Good to see another blog.

There's plenty of places around here that might have them so I'll be sure to look around.

I haven't been on a lot, apologies for that... I haven't been in the best of moods either but today is a little better than normal. I also haven't been able to write much either but I was finally able to finish one thing...

Seems so strange a guy who's cranked out hundreds of published pages is finding just finishing a lil blog essay to...

Most Recommended Foreign Films!

It turns out at some point I became a huge movie snob. Actually I'm not snobbish, I just find that I agree with the people who are snobs (the critics) with regards to what movies they like! I've developed a somewhat simple formula to find great movies that aren't pushed by millions of Hollywood dollars and the number of insanely good...

I love Bruno Ganz. Anything he's in should be worth watching.
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and the Motorcycle Diaries are two great ones and part of my dvd collection.

Haven't seen you around in a while. How have you been?
yurei:
Just been really trying to figure how I feel (if that makes sense) and who I really am and realizing that I truly deeply hate my job. LOL.
How about yourself? It's been a little a while since you've posted.
Good to hear (read?) from you.

Rorschach's Journal - 01/17/2010

As always, skip to the bottom, past the asterisks if you want to get around the big boring essay.


Micro RNA

We're at an incredibly important time right now and most people, in fact nearly all people, don't even know it. Just about everyone's heard of stem cell research but it's not necessarily the most promising biotechnology out there. It just...

***Transcribing this off my journal...the writing of this took place over several days. ***


Life and how much, how little it means to me


I know I'm supposed to stay away but this is just one of those moments where I just felt compelled. I was watching one of the best movies ever, Before Sunrise (Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpy, written and directed by Richard Linklater)....

ARGGHHHH!! I just spent an hour writing something and hit the wrong button and now it's gone....

2nd try, this time sanely done in Wordpad first.

First off, I don't have much to say right now. Actually I have a ton of topics I want to write about but no inclination to do so. Ironically I've been writing quite a few Magic The Gathering stories...

Did you resize them with you brain-power?

Also. Those rocks.

They make me think of my childhood.

On Time


The idea of time was invented by ancient peoples to be able to mark occurrences of events so that future events could be predicted. A little bit later, the concept of history, which is looking back at past events and time markings grew out of people studying previously made marks. But time is really just an illusion as the universe has no clock....

Yes!

Ironically, no, almost the opposite -- after only talking online for short of a year and then me eventually, flatly turning down the prospect of anything more, .. he's quite infuriated and lashing out over the fact that he isn't and WON'T be "one of the people I choose to surround myself with," etc. Although, yes, he did have somewhat of a role for a while, so you could go that route -- and then in that sense, -- .. well. Just, yeah. But, relationship, no. Which is funny, because he's acting like we're getting a damned divorce.

AND -- about the whole -- it's good when they fly off the handle this way, because you get that glimpse? Yes, exactly. Man, what a relief. I mean, he did it a few times prior, and I took big, huge, whopping steps back anyway. But this just seals the deal. Before, he just showed me he was looney toons. But this time, I can see he's also as much of a Grade A asshole as he can be .. with what little intellect he's got.

Today, I just want to talk a bit about what it is I do for a living. The last couple of weeks, Ive had so many topics I wanted to post but I kept not feeling it and thus theyve piled up to the point where now that I have the inclination to write, I dont know what topic to pick. So Ive settled on...

I use fingerprint censors at my job. :]

Not for the government. At all. BUT, everyone over the age of 50 seems -convinced- that every fingerprint censor is networked to the FBI / CIA / every three letter agency, and will put up an EPIC battle against registering with us, screaming of conspiracies, Big Brother, this, that & the other.

It's amazing, really. I kind of .. love to watch them flip out. We have notes under the names of the most paranoid clients, to remind each of us not to even slip & ask for their fingerprints [it's habit] .. lest we get reamed.

Um. Really, though? Tanning salon = probably not high up on the government affiliation ladder.

.. Er. Tangent. :]

Let me know specifically what you want and I'll keep an eye out for it.
There's a huge store near my house that sells a bunch (just an incredible
amount) of items ranging from gaming systems (I bought my Panasonic/Nintendo Gamecube there)
to entire collections of manga.
