The title speaks volumes, if only you knew me and the self--inflicted anguish I was experiencing in January 2005 ( Read more... )

The last entry had more tags than writing, I'm afraid. But it should not be surprising ( Read more... )

Too often do I open to this page with thoughts in mind, become distracted by other tabs, and end up forgetting about this site. It is mistake that ought to be remedied. On that note, I recently read that depressed people (such as myself, clearly) over use first person pronouns. Hence any reader of this journal be it the casual bop-in or a genuine ( Read more... )

Because of terrible disconnects in my life ( my laptop dying again; some unpredictability and being unsure how to use my phone; and because the desktop I am now is rather sluggish and old), I had to go back and piece together some recent information, information "learned," experienced, read, felt, discussed ( Read more... )

At the time I begin typing this, it is most important to note that I am emotionally vulnerable. It is my sincere hope that this entry will serve to capture the essence of the moment (which may not happen), and convey an important message that will be of use to anyone who happens upon this prose for whatever reason ( Read more... )

It occurred to me that I had no updated in a few days. According to the time stamp, it has been since Saturday. I don't know if that'll be the norm --only a weekly update or two. But it does seem strange, given that I had that period of time (most of this year) where I was updating probably about 4-5 times a week, sometimes more, sometimes less ( Read more... )

I love the thrill, the rush, of the beginning of an album. The sounds that begin Sleater-Kinney's 7th, and final album, The Woods (2005) have been haunting me a lot the past few days. I've had a few other thoughts and songs on my mind as well, but "The Fox" sticks with me the most. The beginning of the end, if you will ( Read more... )

There was a time when I only updated in the morning, and a time when I only updated in the middle of the night. I guess right now, I'm at that level of compromise, with the bulk of entries coming in the afternoon. That being said, I just felt like coming here, to espouse more of whatever it is I espouse. (shrug ( Read more... )

Yesterday was rather productive, for what was meant to be a dull Thursday. I studied German, Latin, and PIE. PIE, for the uninitiated, is Proto-Indo-European, our parent language. (Side note: Interesting, my twitter is now turning into extended lj entries, or, rather, my twitter is turning into sound bites from lj entries). I found it to be a ( Read more... )

I felt I should update to maintain a semblance of regularity. My mind may be spinning, but there is hardly a thought worth recording from the echoes of my mind. Lately (read: since April) I had become dull and listless. Once again, I am breaking out of that shell, only to slip back into it by nightfall ( Read more... )
