it was brought to my attention that i posted the following in august 2006:
i had a weird epiphany at work today. i was looking at my stapler, thinking to myself i really like that stapler. it's easy to use. has a nice comfy grip. i can see how it would be annoying if something happened to it. then i thought i guess i can sympathize with milton and his red stapler. that's when i wanted to shoot myself. i don't want to have to do this forever. i don't want my whole life to be about my stapler. i know it won't but some times, it feels like it. i thought about what it would feel like to get that first real job. i can't even imagine it. all i know is when that day comes, i'm buying everyone a drink.
i have some new thoughts on this. things have changed. is it wrong that i sometimes just want to sit behind a desk and wear pretty things? I don't want to abandon my hopes of something in tv completely, but right now, i just want money and something not too stressful. so i'll take that stapler please, if it comes with a nice chunk of change. say 40, maybe 50K?
