I have got to get a digital camera. So much of my world can only be explained visually. I call myself a writer, but I can't even attempt to explain my state of mind lately. If only I could show you pictures...
Just saw the Aviator. Howard Hughes is my hero. A man nearly as insane as I am (excuse me, eccentric), but he still manages to have movie stars lust after him, revolutionizes the air industry, and lives his dream. Now if only I'd strike it rich with a few oil wells to get me started, I would cheerfully follow in his footsteps... being careful to...

Agreed. It's hard to imagine someone doing now what Hughes did then, achieving all that (I have the sense that our modern world is at once too complex and too mediocre for someone like Hughes.) He's a fascinating character.
My Reclining Squirrel Kung Fu Stance is eminently defeatable!!

Oh Monday-monday, how could you leave, and not...

Sad moment over. Watching many movies today has briefly lulled me into believing in happy endings again. That's the problem with us die-hard romantics. In order to maintain our tilting at windmills mindset, we have to be somewhat gullible. 
I feel profoundly sad. It happens whenever I contemplate my life: accumulating wealth to pay off my debt, with the occassional movie to distract myself from the emptiness of it all. After much hard work to recover from bad choices I made six years ago, I believe I'll have all my debt finally paid off before the end of 2005. Then I can resume saving...

Yes, the two things that clip our ability to say "Fuck it" - children, and pets.
We realize too late that maybe those folks had a point when they advised us to "do what we love for a living." Personally, if I had known what I would be doing now, it would have scared the hell out of me.

The new Comedy Central game show Distraction has just surpassed the Gong Show as the greatest game show ever, and I'll tell you why: not because of any of the things they've advertised in the commercials. They gave the winner a brand new car, and then one more bonus round--for every question the winner gets wrong, the losers get to trash a piece of his...

Oh I was not that upset, I got over it pretty quickly, but thanks for the love! THE fax thing is really irritating BECAUSE if it is not in by tomorow THEN I will not be able to start my job AND I will have to wait 2 or 3 more weeks till they have another training session, that will suck!
Congratulate me. As of today, unravled's gift membership ran out. So now I'm paying my own way for SG.
Sniffle!!! I'm just so gosh darn proud of myself!! And I didn't even have to beat up any kindegarteners for their milk money to pay for it!!
Although come to think of it, that might be entertaining...

damn gun point even! COOL!
I find that I have yet again blown off my New Year's resolution to write more. It's quite vexing!! I honestly do have alot of talent in that area, not that most of you will ever get a chance to witness it. The bottom line though is that writing has become an obligation and a chore for me, and not even at the top of...

Wahooo!!! I survived being social!!! [shudder] Sorry, had a quick flashback there. Did my first ever SG Event. Met some people almost as insane as I am, which is always fun. Had a blast actually. I may have to be social again someday...

Argh!!! My friends are forcing me to be....social... I hope I survive the experience. I've gone to alot of work to fashion a safe, sterile and dreary buffer zone between me and the rest of the world. And while I completely hate it, I still get agoraphobic when my borders are challenged. Particularly when I'm the one crossing them.
At work I'm social without...

my no tolerance policy is more or less in regards to everything i dislike or that annoys me. i have too much i have to take care of to let petty little shit get in my way at all, so no tolerance, zero distractions.
borders are meant to be broken, baby.

I started watching the extended version of Lord of the Rings at 8pm. At 12:30am we were done. The extra 50 minutes of footage was so very worth it...wow!!!
And if you think my reaction is geeky, you should have overheard my roomates tearing apart the inconsistencies between the movie and the books afterward...
