Truth of Life

"The more garbage that happens to you, the better you are... Our lives are just vapor, that evaporates. So you'd better make use of what you've got."--Reginald Hill, September 5th 2002, lecture on Anglo-Saxon poetry techniques.

days off

Having days off like today give me great insight. I know the truth. My future is on the beach. Debt-less. Bill-less. Sipping coctails, reading books, and writing. That is the life.

Some might think that sporting aspirations to be a beach bum makes one weak-minded or stupid. Such is most definitely not the case. The life I aspire to shows honesty which most people are not willing to admit.

Geeky guys

Geeky guys. They read comic books, watch Star Wars. They get science. Computers come easy to them. In my experience, they know good music. They're incredibly smart. They tell funny jokes. Geeky guys are cool.

15,000 germs

According to my father, when a person with a cold coughs into the air, 15,000 germs hit the air, flying around until they find weakless hosts to grab onto. Today, I am one of those people with the millions of germs just lining up to be forced out of my throat by the wicked wind. At work, my short, Asian co-worker also had a cough and shared a ricola with me to aid in the healing process.

The cough season is the worst of all seasons. Not only is it too cold outside for any of us normal people to enjoy, but it is also a time of raspy voices and bad hair days.

It's half past six. Maybe if I go to bed by seven, I'll fight these germs to their death.
