No on 8
“There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part. You can’t even passively take part and you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears, and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you’ve gotta make it stop. And you’ve gotta indicate to the people that run ( Read more... ) -

Libra
I just realized that Libra is the only sign that is an inanimate object (the scales) which happens to also be a concept (balance). Neato.
I identify with a lot of traits they associate with the Libra sign: diplomatic, romantic, idealistic, ahem, gullible. Ultimately I think it's bs but still neato.

Me again
I've been up all night long bonding, making art, and planning my future. I stayed at the dub too long (first time I've left after midnight since burning man) but this time I didn't walk away feeling uglier inside. The world is filling me with hope again and not crushing my soul.
I feel like me again.
I have big plans. Big-little plans. Little-big ( Read more... ) -
Burning Man 2008
Was my best year ever.

Wish me luck
Right now I'm working on a writing sample for a company that I think I would love to work for in a job that I think I would love to do. I'm starting to feel nervous as hell because I have a very strong feeling that this is the thing I've been waiting for and seeking out. I'm also a fair bit not-nervous-at-all because I'm kicking some serious ass at ( Read more... ) -
Smarts
I think that sometimes people think I'm smarter than I am simply because I'm good at detecting the right moments to keep my mouth shut. I think that is both a good and bad thing.
There is a huge amount of information out there that I've indicated my knowlege of by way of silence. It makes me wish I wanted to go back to school. What I really wish is ( Read more... )
