It's a lot harder than I thought it would be to write a live journal entry. At first I was placing blame on the fact that I am now a late "20 something".....then on the fact that I have also spent the past few years managing my mania by sedating it.....then I thought "maybe it's because I'm in a relationship and therefore have my own live in therapist (thank you Justin)....but then, i sit here finding myself thinking its too HARD to explain all that I feel...and then I start craving the safety of the "witty one sentence facebook update". I start trying to sum up all the self realization in the past hour into a quote that friends could "like" or read and shrug their shoulders only to move onto the next comment made by some stranger ...letting my one attempt to reach out to others fade away in the obscurity that is facebook...
The only thing that is making this resemble my old entries is the fact that I came on to write about one thing and ended up rambling about something else.. I think my original thought was something along the lines of "Life is simple and that is what makes it so complex"...I mean, I would have expanded on that for paragraphs and noted all the observations and conversations and motions I went through to get to that conclusion..but hell why bother...I mean it has to be under 425 characters right?
It seems appropriate to point out that I saw someone watching a movie on their iphone today while doing crunches at the gym...
Welcome to your 20 somethings....welcome to 2010.
And now the biggest irony is that I'm considering cutting and pasting this onto facebook...
