I think there is something so inherently lame about all of the on-line journals (Live or otherwise) devoted to personification of celebrities or fictitious characters. Granted it's a hobby just like gardening or photography, but it seems to be such a weak stretch of abilities. How hard is it to take a well-known person and make up lies about their lives? Would it not be far better to write an original story about a self-created character? Is it just a reflection on American culture to be more of a spectator and give minimal effort than to be creative and innovative?
I got the latest issue of Adbusters and wonder if I'm horribly hypocritical for consuming a magazine dedicated to non-consumerism. Next year I'm going to instruct those that buy me gifts to instead donate money to the local Humane Society. I should have done it next year, but this will fit in nicely to the Year of Brian plans.
I just blew my nose and it smelled like hot dogs.
I'm reading an interesting book before I go to bed entitled Don't Know Much About the Bible. It's a skeptical (and factual) view of the events listed in the Bible. I know so little about the religion I most closely identify with; this is a good resource.
Today is going to be a productive day in that I've got some stuff to do and desire to do it. This weekend is going to be the same. Letters to write, cds to burn, wives to hump; I've got an agenda baby!
Dinner last night was fun. It'd been so long since I'd seen Joy, it was nice to catch up and hear that she's still hanging in there. She's really busy with her job and had an unfortunate situation at work to deal with. We got a 'take and bake' pizza that overflowed in the oven and left a stinky, smoky mess.
Hi Nikki.
I feel like I'm on the cusp of something. Like a more positive energy than I've had in a long time. I've just got to keep my chin up and count my blessings that the good times far outweigh the bad ones.
My new boss and I had a 45 minute 'venting' session this morning and it was the most productive (and valued) I've felt since I got here. I'm starting to re-think taking leave of this place. But just barely. I'll wait until I find myself at the crossroads before deciding which way to go.
I got to drive through a lot of fog today. I like driving through fog. Something epic and adventurous about it. If only I had someplace more epic and adventurous to go than work.
