"It's like in the great stories...

Aug 05, 2005 01:07

sit up once again...thought i suppose its not so late now....but still...for what i did today, i should be passed out and half dead on my bed by now, yet sleep doesnt seem to be my perogative this evening. i just got through watching a pretty descent movie entitled enemy at the gates and i must say i liked it a lot. for not having the hype of saving private ryan, it sure is a good warfilm/love story that people should check out. i don't know...it seems to have put me in a thinking mood.

these past few days have been long ones...tuesday i had my 10 min session for english 103 then it was straight to work. the store was slow as could be but i did leave early to go do an install. i love getting away from the store, its just kinda aggravating when i'm not really expecting it. it seems like a lot of stuff gets done half-ass and last minute sometimes and i'm the one who gets done doing the half-ass and last minute stuff. my van is both a blessing and a curse i guess. well after work i had a relaxing evening with amanda before heading home.

wednesday was long but in a good way i guess...i did have an install to do, but i knew about it, and it was for some people i know so it wasnt so bad...the work the previous installers from a different company gave me a lot of problems though cause they didn't use common sense to put it simply. then after that, i came home, finally got my desk situated the way i wanted with my stereo and i actually get a sound stage! lol...sorry...its an audio nerd thing...its where the speakers are per...lol...forget it i won't bore you all with a silly detailed explanation....i might get myself into a rant and draw out a bunch of diagrams or something....geez i'm a nerd. well, that evening i spent with my best bud rachel catchin up on stuff before her schedule gets all sporadic for the rest of the summer and she has to head back down to uiuc.

today was by far a very long day. i knew about everything i had to do, it just took forever....woke up at dawn practically, did some things around the house and got called in to work early at like 9:15 and went straight till 8 this evening. i did accomplish a lot, but it was frustrating and long, but to get out of the store again was a welcome change of pace. after finishin up, i called amanda and we were gonna do something, but about an hour later we talked and kinda unanimously decided we were both too tired to do something....which i really was for once...but that's ironic cause i'm still awake...i don't get it...this insomnia...well....i do sleep...but the urge or...whatever you wanna call it to stay up till all hours of the morning really perplexes me.

well anyway, enemy at the gates really got me thinking. when i watch movies like that, it makes me wish to get put into situations where i could prove myself. like...i don't know...something in me wants to be courageous and do brave things. sometimes i wish tragic or difficult things would happen around me so i can prove something....i dont get it...i guess its kinda wrong to have a thought like that...i guess there's a feeling that there's something more out there....maybe i need more adventure in my life besides the movies i see at work and home...or the adventure of finding out what weird things are between the walls and floors of clients houses....maybe i just need to get out more...though i have been doing a lot of that lately...and really been having a good time of it too....i don't know...something inside me just yearns to be let out when i see movies like that i guess...

....it's weird the kinda rants i go on at one in the morning........

thought of the blog: your greatest adventure...

mine would be sailing through a near-hurricane in the florida keys...never have i had such a thrill..riding out the waves at the front of the ship and moving about the deck while others cowered below deck..it was a blast and i wish i could experience more things like that...i long for another adventurous rush......

i guess since i'm still not sleepy i'll try and trick out my myspace account a bit....

peace
