speaking out.... some of my phrases:
"trying is the first step toward failure"
"If we had any ham we could have ham and eggs, if we had any eggs"
There are others, but I am too sloth to remember them. You kind of loose track of intelligent sayings when you have nobody to talk to, or when the only conversations you have are "can I get sweet and sour sauce with that?" or the happy-crappy smalltalk with the checkout chick at the grocery store.
Kswiss is what is wrong with america. We have debated all sorts of things, from corporate consumerism to the war on drugs to the Party, trying to find what is wrong with us, but we have failed. Kswiss identified it for us. We are just simply stupid. Lazy, too, but that was only implied.
Well, here I sit for another evening. I am paranoid I swear. I just drove for a full hour simply to change the radio station in my uncle's truck from the local college station (which had a couple of uncommonly good songs in my perusal of the airwaves today) to the random static filling the voids between stations. Why? Because I didn't want anybody to get in the truck, turn on the radio and say "what kind of freak listens to THIS?!?!". call me weak. Go ahead. you know you want too.
oh well.
I did take a bit of a trip down memory lane. I drove through my old neighborhood where I used to live. It was a very cool melancholy feeling. Kind of cloudy with a slight drip of rain, and everything largely the same, but slightly different. they built a new house where I used to wander through the woods. They painted the one on the corner. THe trees and brush have gotten bigger. It was a good neighborhood. I have thought of building/buying a place in the same general area, should I live here for an extended period of time someday. I have to get a job, first, though.
sidenote: do you have a broadband connection, chad? I have it here, and maybe could set up a transfer...
I went to visit my old coworkers at the DOT. it was 4:15, and being that it was a nice day, everyone was gone. Talk was that most people left at 3:00. SHould have guessed. You really can't go home again.
oh well.
Sorry this is not particularly intelligent or well written. I am just not in the mood for effort at the moment.
