I am still to this day catching up on freelance stuff. I’m still taking work home with me from my day job. I’m finding that I become reticent to push away my friends because I can only think about the work in front of me. I miss my friends.
I have recently discovered through word of mouth that the only girl with whom I ever fell in love, who subsequently fell in love with a much more befitting guy, is now married; this makes me feel old in a very new and jarring way.
My Xbox360 has the Red Ring of Death again.
In Los Angeles summer heat, the air conditioner I moved into my room is as effective as when it used to be a fan in a window; this is a waste of hundreds of dollars.
A colony of ants is staging a coup near the kitchen sink.
My bank account is merely a conduit for the money I make to move towards the institutions that then devour it and demand more.
I am running on little to no sleep.
However, my roommate makes ridiculously delicious pizza.
I feel fine.
Pizza: 1
Monday: 0
Looking back over my past year of blogging, give or take some months, I realize that I say I’m busy a lot, and only recently have stopped apologizing for it. Apologizing to whom? you say, because you know how to use the word whom. I was probably apologizing to myself. This is a blog, after all.
Get Through Monday (Lesson 4)
Monday, November 30th, 2009Zeitgeist
If my last post’s responses are any indication,
you, like me, share some very base tenets and outlooks on life
with many other people.
These people aren’t just like-minded.
They’re alike in spirit, and alike in time.
Zeitgeist comes from German,
zeit being “time” and geist being “spirit,”
and there’s a reason those words come together as a compound.
The people around you will prove it.
And there is safety in numbers.
