Things Are Starting To Look Up
I just got done working a full day, 845-1015, I am sun burnt and my feet are screaming at me but I am feeling pretty damn good for once. Usually I come home and just want to kick my cat across the room but not today. I think things are starting to change for the better around here and I am liking that idea.
I Ran Over A Toad
So I was mowing the lawn today and yes, I ran over a toad. I didn’t notice this until the second drive by because when I am on the lawn mower I am in the zone. Not the zone for mowing the lawn well but in the zone for some serious thinking. I do not have an iPod so all I have to listen to is the loud steady hum of the mower, I could probably even run over a small child without noticing. ...
I Need Something New
This place is starting to make me wonder if I am ever going to make it. I need to get out and do something but I can’t seem to find the motivation to do so. I am surrounded by insolent bastards that will never make anything out of their worthless lives. It is quite disheartening to know that the only conversation I am likely to hear at work is either about smoking weed, getting drunk, or...

So my mind has been pretty blank the past couple of days, not much going on up there. It has been raining on and off but I haven’t had the motivation to get anything done that needs to be but is that because of the weather or something else. I mostly just sleep now when I don’t have to work. Wish I could find the energy to get something accomplished.
… Maybe tomorrow.

Simplicity is Bliss
Ever think about what it would be like without television, the internet, or even power? Yeah, me neither until I was forced to for a little while today because a storm came and the power went out. Then I started to think of what it was like way back when and wondered of how life would be if I never knew these things existed. Life would be a whole lot simpler. Everything would happen a whole...
Is This It?
I recently watched Into The Wild for the first time tonight and it brought about some certain questions that have been in the back of my mind for a while now, mainly being; is this it?
I want to get out there, I want to see things before I settle down and make a life for myself. How though? I can’t very well just give up all of my possessions and walk out the door, I don’t have time...
