Help Mii
Ms Sabrina on one of her random impromptu shopping sprees decided that we needed a Wii to keep us all entertained. I'm only slightly addicted. :P Having all this free time on my hands at the moment isn't helping me be more willful in my resistance to the force of the Wii. And it's kind of sad that my own brother refuses to play with me because I've gotten too good and keep winning. You see...this is what my days are reduced to...
I spoke with someone that frequents the bar who told me that a company he works for is constantly looking for employees to do data entry work. I applied for a position with that company today. They make signs...like...traffic signs. I used to collect miniature traffic signs when I was a kid, so I guess it should suit me. :S Regardless, I need back-up plans in case I get a less-than-favorable response from the position in Tampa I'm waiting to hear back from.
So I've been going back through a lot of my old journal entries in my livejournal that I've had for years and I notice a trend in my blogging. Alot of things I blog about aren't really relevant to anything -- they tend to simply be complaints about non-specific feelings and events. I guess I treat my journal more like a means to spew all the emotional baggage I've accumulated than something more observational. But I also noticed how much things have changed:
1) I drink far less now than I did in college.
2) I'm far less repetitive than I was before (although I'm still pretty repetitive).
3) I've given up on using the ellipses as a means to transition between every sentence (I have no idea why I thought that was a good idea).
4) I feel less bitter now than I remember being in the past.
I also noticed how horrible I was at ending relationships. I'm still kind of bad at it. It seems my self-defense mechanism for dealing with rejection (or failure in general) is to get really angry and bitter about it and cut myself off completely from the person. It's definitely something I need to work on.
With love
Timo
