(no subject)
tonight is one of those nights where everything is somewhat terrifying, yet also everything is exciting. this is a dichotomy that i like to have in my life, although it can be a little weird at times. its always a little disconcerting, yet completely normal i suppose, when emotions can't be placed and nothing can be rationalized. i guess this is how its always been though, and how it probably will be forever, so its best to just deal with it. consistency can be nice though.
in more of my bad tattoo ideas i'll never get and can't afford anyway, i'm actually considering a lord of the rings tattoo. this would push me from casual nerd to huge ridiculous nerd, but i suppose thats a move i can deal with. basically, i would get the phrase "auta i lome - aure entuluva" somewhere on my body, either in that language or in actual elvish script. it translates to "the night is passing - day shall come again." i'm pretty notorious for having a lot of tattoo ideas and never getting them due to laziness and cheapness, but we'll see. i don't know if i could deal with the incredible nerdiness of my lotr love, but i suppose thats not something i really hide these days. not to mention the fact that tolkien is the fucking shit.
i'm no longer in a relationship. it was a pretty short-term thing, and we're managing to still be friends now, which is nice. hopefully this will continue, as losing friends is wack.
i also have a job these days, finally, after my long period of unemployment. working sucks, but luckily this job is turning out to be pretty ok, and consists of the usual food service pillars of theft, solidarity, and angst. i can get down with this.
i feel somewhat compelled to write something about the war, but i dont really know what to say. its terrifying really, and we can only hope that it will be over soon. the antagonism and the supposedly righteous sense of individualism on the part of our president really is something remarkable, in a completely negative sense, and i really just don't know what to think. theres a whole lot of issues intertwined with this whole war business, and the obscene size of the american power system seems to show itself pretty well.
but yeah, everything is going ok.
