While the last week or so has involved a lot of personal development, the assertion that I made regarding feeling relaxed in a recent post was completely and totally... due to the acupuncture treatment. Whoops!
I could imagine being decadent and lush and utterly addicted to alternative medicine.
I need to work on doing things for myself. Perpetuating grand schemes to amass obscenely large sums of money is not going to make me "content." I know this. Between The Twilight Zone and a cross-section of carefully-selected reality television, this is a thing that I know. I am saying this because I am attempting to convince myself out of taking a second full time job. But it is in local politics, and those can be so interesting! Ooof.
I am looking forward to going to China, but to be completely honest I am looking forward to being done with every economics course that I will ever need to take More. I wish that this weren't the case, but it absolutely is. I dislike economics strongly--I admit it! I think that it is absurd and I want nothing to do with it. I will trade you these photos of flowers for that liter of orange juice, friend, and we will both be better for it. I will build you an apartment complex out of tires and willow trees. I don't want your sheets of paper or your circular piece of zinc!
That being said: I love my new job. Contracting is great. WHAT OF IT, FEDS. I AM TAKING MY VACATION PAY OUT AND YOUR TAX DOLLARS AND BUYING A RUBY RED SCHWINN BICYCLE WITH A BASKET AND BELL WITH IT you know since we have no trading posts thanks a lot contemporary society
Actually, I don't know how this Livejournal post became a vicious attack on standardized currency systems, I couldn't give a damn really.
But no, really, I love my new job. Great coworkers and Chantilly isn't really that far away and I get to research the coolest things. Actually the coolest (even though that starts at 7 am every day.) And it is an excuse to have my car in the city, so I have gotten to traverse Northern Virginia nostalgically on a regular basis. And I get free coffee! So much free coffee. And I keep cereal at my desk.
We must
eat through the wildness of her sweet body already
in our bed to reach the body within the body
