We'll build our walls aluminum...

I feel vaguely creepy, and I really need to stop being this way. I obsess, and I make vain attempts at being different than myself sometimes. I usually manage to convince myself that I'm just tapping new depths to my personality, rather than just imitating someone else's interests and habits, etc. I am extremely malleable in this sense.

I know, I know, I am my own person. Most people that know me well (and thus I deeply respect their criticisms) will say that I've never had a problem being my own person. It's just that when I change I don't know if I'm changing because it's me or because it's someone else. I worry about it being someone else, or just other people in general.

That being said, I'm enjoying having new interests. New music, new things to read, new creative things to do in my spare time, new posters on my walls (it was free with my purchase!). I just don't want to overdo it. It's happened before. I still don't like to drink soda (especially Mtn Dew), and my sleeping habits are still closer to what Ben Franklin would have precribed than not. Somehow I still feel like I should go back to basics, get out my analog camera and take some artistic b+w photos, listen to some of The Band, and dig around in the garden. If my bike weren't in the shop I'd take it out for a good couple hours.

It's too nice to be in here writing this. I could take my laptop outside, but I don't think that's terribly productive.
