This Blog

My blog could be considered a dangerous thing. I don't think it is. Everything I write is completely honest. Some posts are commentary, some posts are stories, some are boring, some are fun. Most often it's a window into the part of my subconscious that cannot be communicated verbally. It's meant to be the place I spill, organize and store my abstract hidden things. You can really access a lot about me through the blog, and it's partially there for that purpose. To find out the things I cannot say, and don't necessarily need to be said. But its also a tool for me, the process of writing/blogging is therapy in some sense. However, there's a lot missing. To read it, and to think that it is all of me, would be very wrong. That's why it can be misleading. A lot of people read it, and they misinterpret. No one really knows what I actually mean by a lot of the things I say, and that's not my problem. Like I said, its only there partially for the purpose of letting people into that part of me, the rest is there for me, for my subconscious to come out. To take it literally would be a dangerous thing for the reader.

Important Pieces

In that space where infinity above meets immensity below we see the first sign of a new dawn. Dark always gives way to light; for a brief moment nothing is forbidden, everything is possible. But what would we do if the light never came? Maybe we would lie down. Maybe we could go back to sleep. Maybe we could wake up. - Adbusters

The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere; they’re in each other all along. - Jelaluddin Rumi (1207-1273)

Adopt the pace of nature: Her secret is patience. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"The poet Rilke was afraid that if he got rid of his demons, he would lose his angels as well. Of course the danger of clinging to our demons to save our angels is that our demons may well take over." - Tim Farrington

Amnesia is not knowing who one is and wanting desperately to find out. Euphoria is not knowing who one is and not caring. Ecstasy is knowing exactly who one is-and still not caring.
- Tom Robbins

After spending ten minutes waiting in line to park at Radnor Lake, I gave up and turned around. The trees are very pretty but not that pretty. Radnor is really a weekday activity, especially during this season. It's awesome ever since we canceled cable, things are getting done and I want to do stuff and be out doing stuff. I don't know why we didn't do it earlier. I don't even really miss it. I miss selected shows but even those I'm over missing.

Our roommate moved in and aside from the odds and ends it's been okay so far, plus he keeps taking these mini trips out of town. Hopefully he won't always leave the toilet seat up, or he won't always neglect to put the towel down on the bathroom to stand on, or he won't always park crooked in the drive way, or he won't always move his furniture in at 8:30 pm. Seriously though I think I've started to really let go of all that freedom and 'need to have my own space' and 'own time' mentality. It takes a lot to give that kind of stuff up, then you do and it's really not the end of the world, it's just different.

The last year consisted of a lot of stagnation. At first you think it's being comfortable, having fun watching whatever you want, buying whatever the hell you want, etc. Then you realize you don't have any goals or you haven't cleaned that part of the house in ages or you have to fork over a shit ton of cash you don't have because you spent it on silly things. I'm not saying I'm going to give up everything, but I am going to stop eating stuff that I don't need every week. Like no more turnip truck lunches for instance. That alone will save me like $30 a week possibly more. $30 is like two cardigans at target, a tank of gas, or part of my cellphone bill. And I'm doing well making up lunches. It's easier this season because I know how to cook all the stuff that's in season right now, or I enjoy cooking stuff again or something. Everything comes in phases.

Anyway I'm going to work on this list, I've been wanting to work on this list you see. I'll post it here when I'm done.
