Much has happened in the however long its been since I last wrote.  I've actually been writing this post on and off for about a month and a half, adding and deleting parts, writing, rewriting, always delayed by work or social events. But now I've finally got some time to finish the editing process and actually post what I've been writing ( Read more... )

Ok so perhaps Wednesday was a bit optimistic. Or rather that specific Wednesday. Anyway, the past month has been really busy at work. OT all over the place. A week ago I managed to work 30 hours of OT. I do not recommend it, the extra money is nice but it kills all joy in the world. Bah. Luckily I've made my most recent deadline so no more big ( Read more... )

I am in fact still alive. More by Wednesday.

My life is degenerating into a cliched country song. The only two things that haven't happened yet is that my girlfriend hasn't left me, cause I don't have one, and my dog hasn't died, again because I don't have one. The past couple of weeks have been one of those everything-starts-to-suck-at-once times.It started a couple thursdays ago. I was ( Read more... )

Welcome to the new year. Once again I'm sitting here in the glow of my monitor, trying to sum up my thoughts and hoping that whatever passes for my muse gets here quick. I'm watching a combination of the Metalocalypse marathon and the New Year's fireworks. I was originally intending to go out and hang with some friends tonight, but as the day ( Read more... )

Hey all. Hope everybody had a good Christmas. Mine was definately more eventful than most. More on that some other time. I got easily the most thought provoking gift I've recieved in recent memory. It's a book of art and philosophy by a guy named Richard Stine. Hadn't heard of him before, but Mom said that his writings reminded her of me. And ( Read more... )

Just got my power back. Have a Merry Christma-solsti-hanna-kwanz-amadan everyone. I'm headed to the folks. More later.

Take it easy. Quote follows.

"Christ said, "The Truth shall make you free,"
but Truth is not found once and forever.
Truth is eternal,
and the quest for Truth must also be eternal."

1) Hope is good, expectation is bad.

2) Hope is good, expectation is bad, but only if hope comes through once in a while.

Think about it, discuss it amongst yourselves, let me know what you think.

Take it easy.

At what point is it acceptable to give up hope? When is it permissable to step back and accept your fate instead of struggling against it? Is it nobler in some way to continue fighting against the inevitable, to stand alone against the fury of the world? Thomas Edison once said "The definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over and ( Read more... )

Ah. The start of a new week. I'm not sure why I can't sleep, but I don't really care. Last week was a pain in the ass workwise. Basically two weeks of work got compressed got compressed into one, with a hard deadline and requiring a resource in high demand. But luckily with a herculean effort I managed to pull it out get everything done. So good ( Read more... )
