You know, when I was unemployeed, I used to just sit around all day and watch TV or look at internet porn, but it would always make me feel guilty

We've been lied to!billyhoyleAugust 23 2004, 12:19:49 UTC
Yep, we've all been lied to (or at least you and I have!). I always thought life was going to be something that was just.....I don't exactly know how to describe it......so ....well, goddammit I thought it was going to be a whole lot different than it is.
Maybe I just need to stop be such a "Negative Nelly" , I guess. Maybe if I took on more of a "Positive Pauly" attitude things would be better and more exciting. Maybe not.
I've read that you're supposed to find your "passion" and then turn that into your career, the problem is that I really don't have a passion yet. Do you? My passion/s changes about as often as I change my underwear. Twice a week. (Drum roll) Actually, it's more like everyday. The underwear, that is. Well, my passion too.
I've read that "Definiteness of Purpose" was one of the ultimate factors in the success of successful people. That's not good news for me. I have about as much "Definiteness of Purpose" as, well......umm.....uhhh.....let's just say I'm lacking in the "Definiteness of Purpose" area.(About as much as I'm lacking in the area of finding a simile/metaphor for describing how much lack of "Definiteness of Purpose" I possess.)
Anyway - Maybe you just need to find your "passion". That sounds easy.(sarcasm) Then all you need to do is find a way to make that passion make you money. Even easier!(heavier sarcasm)
Enough of that babble. I apologize.
As for the "dying tomorrow"-thing. It's not 100% true. If you really did die tomorrow, you'd have nothing. Because you'd be DEAD. So it'd be pretty hard for you to have anything, especially money. Although dying didn't seem to stop that "Bernie" guy in "weekend at Bernie's" - did it? Maybe I'm wrong. Although they do say, speaking of money and dying, that you "can't take it with you." Unless, of course you get one of your friends to withdraw your money from your bank account and then put it in your pockets during viewing hours at your funeral.
But how would you know your friend ACTUALLY put the money in your pcokets? You're dead, remember. I think stuffing money in your pockets after you die is a good idea. That way when the zombies come and take over the Earth, as anyone who has watched any zombie movie knows is bound to happen sooner of later, then you'll be the only zombie with a few bucks in his pocket to go to TJIFridays after the invasion, which instantly increases your chances of scoring with the zombie LADIES!
Sorry this response is SO long, B-Lo, it's been awhile since I've responded to your journal and it's all coming out at once. My keyboard is bouncing like Dolly Parton do jumping jacks. Ouch! I think I have carpel tunnel syndrome.
In closing, I agree with your post. Something is missing. You and I can't be the only ones that have this prob. If you figure anything out, let me know.
