I get no pleasure from getting "getting my shit done", i.e. recycling, cleaning my room (hardcore organizing, but I have not organized my LPs or books) cooking, etc. The only reason I do it is because either I go crazy if I don't get it done, or other people are disappointed that I haven't done my end of cleaning. But then, at the end, I'm not satisfied. Just restless.

Well, soon I'll be reading some deep theory and take up taking notes again. I miss writing about that, developing life theories rather than writing about my daily emotions in Bell Hooks style. Emotions are interesting and the bread and butter of life, but not when they are like the above. Snooze!

Speaking of deep theory, I'm going to RAT this year (Renewing the Anarchist Tradition). I've had a lot of contradicting feelings over anarchism in the last year in terms of current social connotation rather than theory. Basically, I wish more people would study it, rock it out with their bikes (cause I know all you anarchists and bike kids are BFF), and just realize it's another path to social justice, environmentalism, and healing our disconnected, damaged, suicidal/depressed selves.

Here's the link.

I'm going for two reasons. 1) It's up in Vermont, where my friend Patrick goes to school. Maybe I'll bum around NYC while I'm up there, but it's doubtful. 2) All my braniac friends, whose opinons I have complete faith in, strongly urged me to go. 9 months ago, I was in a room with three of them when they were bursting with the suggestion that I must go this year.
