feeling weird and huge

[likethebeer]

I've worked a little on the essay. I had some really good stuff going in the beginning, and it faded all the sudden. I need to listen to people read very good short stories, I suppose, so that I can hear the voice in my head. But if I have to imagine a voice, does that mean I have one? In a writerly sense, of course

I do like "ganked." Gladys knows where that came from.

WWFLLWWD?

Heh.. I've been working over that "life has no meaning" thing. As though my life were so special.

The vast majority of people on this planet just try to get enough to eat, breed and shit. The struggle is what life is all about.

In the west we don't have the same struggles, so the narcissicism does set in.

"As though my life were so special." oh. I'm glad I could give you prespective, but then I've got to face that you're going through the same thing.

As my dad says, "I'm happier when I'm losing money. When I make money, I start thinking, 'what's the meaning of life? And when I'm losing money, I realize, 'Oh, this is what my life is about. It's about making money!'" The guy may be a wank sometimes, but at least he understands himself that much and understands what his purpose is about.

I think this is a pretty common question, you know? We all want to be the people we imagine we can be, and fall into the pit when we aren't "living up to our full potential" or whatever.

I also think it's this time of the year...I feel the same way all of the time. XOXO

[likethebeer]

I seem to fall into the pit of not being what I'm supposed to be a lot. There's some song we heard on Jay Leno last night (I'm sure all the kids are listening to it) and it's about some woman who has kids in high school who "thinks she's uncool" and all she thinks about it 1985. It's completely engineered for the nostalgia crowd, but they've got the "I'm in my 30s and don't know what I'm doing with my life" vibe.

"I feel the same way all of the time."--aw, shiza. I remember talking to you about sunrise/sunset last year. I checked out this site: http://www.sunrisesunset.com/usa/Kansas.asp
You've already gained 6 minutes of daylight since Dec. 21.

I don't have anything profound to add, just that January sucks and porn is silly, and weren't jujupees and WI-C going to come visit MN?

[likethebeer]

They were talking about visiting their meat-loving friend (who was visiting himself this past weekend), so a trip to the twin cities is forecast.

[coconuthead]

Excellent.

better late than never?

[coconuthead]

We're-a-comin'. Got held up by santa claus on our way out the door. Shooting for February pending jujupees' work/travel schedule. will advise the dear MN crew.

Peace, Love, Hominy - WI-C

I'm sad to hear that you're not feeling great, but I understand how you feel. For me, this feeling usually comes on in the summer. I know, I'm weird

[likethebeer]

Thanks for the write in.

I get this feeling several times a year (mid-spring, late summer), but winter is the worst.

[em_porium]

Yeah, I hear ya.
