I just needed to update

Nov 07, 2010 21:33

I have a fairly new moleskine sitting my room, near some of the piles of unread books. It sits there, mocking me, begging me to write in it. Instead, however, I have decided to write here, not because I feel I have anything of quality to say tonight, but because, why not? Especially since I may have increased my readership by +1! That would be fantastical.

Sometimes, I just like feeling the typing beneath my fingers. After all the years of papers and writing and editing, there is something I miss dreadfully about being able to compose an essay. Every time I read a book, I collect these notes and references in hopes that I'll be able to form some sort of all-encompassing cultural critique. Instead, like the piles of unread books --and the moleskine -- they sit there, unfinished (because I either lost interest or didn't finish the book) also mocking me.

My life, and I imagine yours as well, has a way of mocking us. After all, we're just two lost souls swimmin' in a fish bowl, year after year... Runnin' over the same old ground, what have we found? Wish you were here...

sorry. I have a tendency to start semi-important entries and then abandon them and then hastily apply a conclusion and leave it at that. sigh.

I'll be back sometime soon-ish with a real entry...
