i found something out today. it goes a little somethin' like this:
i have wondered all these years why do i enjoy reading. honestly. when you think about it all you are doing is sitting down and reading letters and words on a page but for some reason it holds my attention span in unusal ways that nothing else really does. theres no picture to captavate you, but, there are beautiful words. these words. i was at work today and i brought two books with me. i brought the heights of macchu picchu by neruda and then i brought hemmingway on writing. it made me feel a whole lot better and i think i'll lock myself up in my room for days again and read. shieet. i wish i had a way with words like hemmingway does because even on his letters to editors or fitzgerald, still, all the words are placed in a way that is something else. but, i learned something that i'm going to try. i've had ideas in my head and i think its just time to sit down and write.
and get on my fiction project. i'm going to do the third rough draft of an image today and get that out of the way. i've been well, not focusing on it and i need more time to actually put my project together than sit down and do the images. i'm happy the way it is turning out and so does my teacher. its a secret from the rest of the world though. i would rather take a picture of it, or, for anyone i actually hang out with, show it in person becuase its kind of like a story board.
oh yes, my cell phone broke and i'm kind of happy about that. well, not happy happy but it doesn't really bother me all too much. my contract is up in may so i'm just going to get a new one then, for now though my house phone will have to do and thats just fine. i plan on spending a bit more time at home and saving some money. there are adventures to be had this summer that i must save for, ultimatly. yeesss, adventures. i love them so.
so here we go a brand new topic. i finially realized why i have stayed at dennys for such a freakin long time. its for these reasons: i am comfertable there, i never get in trouble for the stupid shit that i do, i like the people i work with, and its such easy money. its honestly like acting and i like that. and i meet cool people like this guy grizzy, and other things like that. i don't know. its hard to move, at least for me, where places i'm comfertable in. i think, though, that i could move to another city and do just fine but as for switching jobs, well, to me that sounds like more work than neccisary. i have to meet everyone, try to get along with them, see who i can trust and who i cant. shieeet. screw that. i'll just stay at denny's until hell breaks loose and then i'll move on. its a plan then.
okay, thats all.
